What Grupa Kety does

Poland's leading aluminum extrusion maker, producing profiles and systems for windows, facades and industrial uses, plus flexible packaging.

Prices its aluminium products at the metal cost plus a conversion fee, so the conversion margin and volumes matter more than the aluminium price itself. Window and facade systems go to fabricators in Poland and abroad, while packaging serves food and consumer-goods makers; exports are a considerable part of sales.

In one line: Poland's leading aluminum extrusion and construction systems maker.

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.
