What is Company stage?
Where the company is in its life: young growth, high growth, mature growth, mature stable or decline.
A worked example
A five-year-old company doubling sales and losing money is young growth. A 60-year-old company growing 6% and paying most of its profit as dividends is mature stable.
Why does Company stage matter?
Different stages call for different measures. Don't judge a young company by its dividend.
