This is not a growth stock where it counts - EPS

It is the illusion of a growth stock when looking at Revenues and Sales/Share

Operating margin has halved over the last 2 years - is it because of the quality of the acquisitions? Or industry pressures? For comparison I have included the operating margins for HIT, ASH
Depreciation and Amortisation have accelerated dramatically plus new shares have been issued and debt has increased substantially.

But profits have been flat for the last couple of years
PPE only report through their version of Normalised to give a very different set of graphs

I have not looked at this closely for a couple of years and am pretty unimpressed. Below shows HIT and ASH growing EPS but PPE has been flat.

Only redeeming thing is if the Morningstar forecast for EPS growth holds - then we might see some price appreciation

Very good work @Greenie99.
at EBITDA level, everything looks ok for PPE
But interest, dep. and amort. are chewing away at the bottom line profits.
and your picture of the margins is worth a thousand words.

I guess I am hoping that they have a billion dollars worth of revenue to work with to improve the bottom line.
There would be a big share price re rate if that happens.

Cheers
