Questions

Which companies are AIC's closest peers?
The cockpit's peer set: Inspur Software (600756.SS), Pansoft (300996.SZ), Newgen Software Technologies (NEWGEN.NS), Sprout Social (SPT), Beijing Deep Glint Technology (688207.SS), Beijing Thunisoft (300271.SZ), Shenzhen Sunshine Laser & Electronics Technology (300227.SZ), Hansong (Nanjing) Technology (301491.SZ).
Is AIC expensive compared with its peers?
On ev / sales it trades at 2.9× against a peer median of 2.1×, 8th most expensive of 20 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 23% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +20%, so the hurdle is +3 pp: the price needs faster growth than the company has been delivering — of companies that just grew 25–50% a year, 93.8% slowed down over the next four years.
How has AIC stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -22.1% against -12.7% for the median peer; over one year +93.6%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
