Questions

Which companies are Topy Industries's closest peers?
The cockpit's peer set: Liaoning Fu-An Heavy Industry (603315.SS), Chun Yuan Steel Industry (2010.TW), Electrosteel Castings (ELECTCAST.NS), SK oceanplant (100090.KS), Ferrexpo (FXPO.L), Kyoei Steel (5440.T), Shanxi Antai (600408.SS), Hsin Kuang Steel (2031.TW).
Is Topy Industries expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 9.0× against a peer median of 15.7×, 3rd cheapest of 12 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 6% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +6%, so the hurdle is +0 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 Topy Industries stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned +1.1% against -12.0% for the median peer; over one year +4.3%.

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.
