United Phosphorus (UPL) has acquired 10 companies and 12 products in the past seven years. This has resulted in 30% compounded annual revenue growth over the past six years. UPL will continue pursuing organic as well as inorganic growth, given a healthy cash balance of nearly 1,900 crore and debt-to-equity ratio of 0.8. The company has posted robust a double-digit growth in its bottomline during the last two quarters compared to the year-ago period. The company's operating margin has been in the range of 18-20% over the last few quarters. However, despite a decent financial performance, UPL's stock has underperformed the broader market. Given the company's strong product portfolio, its current valuation provides an attractive entry point with an upside potential.
