Winston Score History

The full picture

Sakura Development Co., Ltd is a real estate developer based in Taiwan that builds and sells residential properties, primarily apartments and housing complexes. The company focuses on home buyers in Taiwan's urban and suburban markets, delivering completed units to individual purchasers and families. It operates within Taiwan's competitive residential real estate sector and is one of the notable mid-to-large developers listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange.

The company earns money mainly by selling completed residential units, which is a project-based revenue model where income is recognized when properties are delivered to buyers. With a gross margin above 43% and an operating margin near 39%, Sakura demonstrates strong cost discipline relative to many peers in the region. Its operations are concentrated in Taiwan, limiting geographic diversification. The key risk the business faces is sensitivity to Taiwan's property market cycles, interest rate changes, and government housing policy, all of which can quickly shift buyer demand and affect future project sales.

Strong grower

Sakura Development Co. is growing revenue at 313% year-over-year. The Winston Score penalises unprofitable companies, but revenue at this pace tells a different story — this is a company still in "build mode."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
