What this score is, and is not
It describes how this stock has traded: trend, momentum, risk, liquidity and dividends, each ranked against the other stocks on its own exchange. It does not measure how healthy or cheap the business is. That fundamental X-Ray needs financial statements, which we do not have for Pakistan yet.

Data under review
Too few of our models give a usable value for this company, so we show no number rather than a misleading one.
PSX income statement only (no balance sheet or cash flow): only earnings and sales models can be built. Their weights were fitted to a professional consensus-style valuation of Pakistani stocks and checked on stocks that were not used for the fit, but they use no analyst forecasts. Treat this as a rough estimate.
P/S multiple
PKR 190.400
P/E on average earnings
PKR 183.120
Each model multiplies the company's trailing-twelve-month earnings (or sales) by a multiple that blends its own current multiple, its own history and its sector median. Earnings per share by fiscal year, newest first: 2.72, 2.68, 33.76, 0.09. Source: statements and price from the Pakistan Stock Exchange portal and end-of-day data. A model estimate, not a price target or advice. How it works.
Factor ratings for SHJS
Each factor is rated by where SHJS stands among the 28 stocks of its PSX sector (Sugar & Allied Industries; all PSX stocks when the sector is too small for a fair comparison): Good is the top third, Average the middle third and Bad the bottom third ("Beats" is the share of those stocks it is ahead of). For valuation factors Good means cheaper than most of the group, which is not the same as a bargain. The last columns set the latest year's profit margin against the company's own three earlier years.

Built from the income-statement summary the Pakistan Stock Exchange publishes (sales, profit and EPS for up to four financial years, trailing P/E, market value) and our own end-of-day prices. The PSX portal has no balance sheet or cash flow, so there are no debt, cash-flow or book-value factors. A factor is left out when its data is missing or meaningless (for example a P/E on a loss). These ratings compare companies with each other and describe the past; they are not a forecast, a recommendation or part of the Market X-Ray.
