In another 'HC' thread, the redoubtable madamswer has covered the metrics so one won't be repetitive.

In five years from FY 16 to FY 21, NPAT has risen hugely from $4843000 to $13846000 despite the extremely challenging COVID-19 operating conditions that in particular adversely affected the market for long distance/charter road coach parts and to a lesser degree urban bus parts.

It is extremely difficult to obtain shares in this listed company, but the number of shareholders between FY 20 and FY 21 managed to rise by 10 per cent to 1113 from 1007. Holders with fewer than 1000 shares increased from 426 to 502 and those with 1001-5000 shares increased slightly from 339 to 352.

The Top 20 shareholders' grip remained high, but decreased a small amount in percentage terms from 82.3pc to 81.5pc.

Wishing is good time wasted but many of us ought have known about this company and its steady record of good perfromance years ago, but my excuse is it's never promoted by analysts (who wouldn't like the lack of liquidity) and so unless one went through the Board lists, hard to learn about.
