Winston Score History

The full picture

Arbonia AG is a Swiss industrial company that makes products used inside buildings — mainly heating systems and interior doors. Its core products include radiators, underfloor heating systems, and room doors sold to construction companies, building developers, and renovation contractors across Europe. The company is one of the larger European manufacturers of steel panel radiators and interior door systems.

Arbonia earns revenue by selling these physical products, primarily to the construction and renovation markets in Germany, Switzerland, and broader Central and Eastern Europe. With a market cap around $0.3 billion, it is a mid-sized niche manufacturer whose competitive position relies on established distribution networks and recognized product brands in its home markets. The key growth driver is the ongoing European push to renovate older buildings for energy efficiency, which increases demand for modern heating systems — though a slowdown in European construction activity remains the main risk to near-term revenues.

Growth + cash flow

Arbonia AG is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 14%. The Winston Score doesn't fully credit this transition from "burner" to "earner."

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.

Share count broadly stable

+0.3% over 4y

The share count has stayed roughly flat over this period — little dilution or buyback activity.

Diluted shares outstanding: 69.2M (2021) → 69.4M (2025)
