Why it could become a multibagger

  • A real manufacturing franchise, not a theme-ticket.
  • Valuation is closer to reasonable than the defence and EMS cohort.

What needs to go right

  • Deleverage continues
  • Industrial mix rises
  • ROCE back above 18%

What could destroy the thesis

  • A CV recession with unfinished capex
  • A poor acquisition

What would make me sell

  • Net debt/EBITDA > 2.3x
  • ROCE < 11%
  • A large low-ROCE acquisition
