From the investor's mind
One post worth your time, explained
Sajal Kapoor
@unseenvalue · on X
Sajal Kapoor, a prominent investor, has highlighted that while Biocon exhibits strong scientific capabilities, its financial performance, particularly its Return on Capital Employed (ROCE), has been a concern for shareholders. He emphasizes that for a listed company, a consistent ROCE of over 20% is crucial for incremental capital deployment, a metric where Biocon has historically underperformed. According to Kapoor, despite Biocon's excellent science, its shareholder economics are poor due to this lagging ROCE.
