The read

written from the numbers on this page
The evidence leans negative2 supporting, 4 against, 0 worth knowing

Supporting

  • matches near a 52-week low, which has beaten the market by +0.38 points over 20 sessions across 48,405 past signals
  • revenue grew 10% year on year in the quarter ending 30 June 2026

Against

  • trading 21% below its 200-day average
  • at 0% of its 52-week range — nearly everyone who bought in the past year is underwater
  • down 51% over twelve months
  • net margin has narrowed from 8.3% to -7.4% across four quarters

Worth knowing

  • nothing the data supports either way
NETWORK18 sits in Media — worth checking whether the whole group is moving together or whether this name is doing it alone.
What would change this read: a close back above 34, its 200-day average.
Assembled automatically from the figures on this page — the scans matched, their measured record, the filed financials, the derivatives positioning and the peer comparison. It is not a recommendation, no one has spoken to the company, and every claim above can be checked against a number further down this page.

Every figure here is computed — from the company’s own filings, or from its own closing prices. Wording of 3 of these 4 filing lines was drafted by a language model, which is given the figures and may not introduce another — any sentence containing a number that did not come from the filings is discarded before it reaches this page.

Valuation against its own history

172 sessions since 14 January 2026
27×
median 32×
37×
now 26×
NETWORK18 trades at 26× trailing earnings, below its median of 32× over this window — 16% less expensive than usual. The band runs from the 5th to the 95th percentile, so single-day spikes do not set the edges.
This window is short by the standards of valuation history — it begins where four quarters of filed earnings first exist. A stock can look cheap against two years and expensive against ten.
