    Inconsistent Cash Return on Invested Capital over the past 5 years

    CGX has somewhat efficiently invested its financial resources in buildings, projects, and equipment. However, there has been some inconsistency from year-to-year. Look at reasons for this inconsistency to determine the likelihood of future sustainability.

    CGX has created $14.04 of cash for every $100 invested.

    Poor Return on Equity over the past 5 years

    CGX has shown an inability to deliver strong results for shareholders. This could be due to poor management, CGX operating in a highly competitive industry, or having a weak business in general.

    CGX has only generated $5.94 of Earnings for every $100 of Shareholders' Equity.

    Excellent Business Performance over the past 10 years

    CGX has been able to maintain profitability in good times and bad. This could mean CGX has an extremely strong business or has the ability to scale down costs when needed. This should be a fairly resilient business, but double check for future sustainability by looking at its Risk Factors in the Annual Report.

    CGX has created positive free cash flow for 9 or more of the past 10 years.
