Workday, Inc. (WDAY) on Decifer

Decifer ranks WDAY number 178 of 274 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• Its returns on invested money are modest, around 6% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 13% a year and profits grew 31% over the past year.
• It keeps a high share of every sale as profit, and that has stayed steady over the years, a sign of real pricing power, with profitability widening as it grows.
• It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
• And it returns cash to shareholders.
• Our durability check found pressure on this name, which costs it a few points.
• Returns around 6 percent with profits up 31 percent and momentum of 19 out of 35 show a tailwind, but durability pressure and no funded system role keep it capped.

The current read

The evidence on WDAY lines up on the supportive side: a live market force supports this name through its theme connection. One signal disagrees: the longer-term story is intact, but price is not rewarding it: semiconductor stocks are down 1.0% this week, worth watching but not the weight of the evidence.
