Winston Score History

The full picture

Cresud is an Argentine company that owns and operates farmland across South America, growing crops like soybeans, corn, wheat, and sunflowers, and raising cattle. It sells agricultural products to commodity markets and also owns a large stake in IRSA, one of Argentina's biggest real estate companies, which runs shopping malls and office buildings. This makes Cresud a mix of two businesses: farming and urban real estate.

Cresud earns money by selling crops and livestock, collecting rent from its real estate holdings through IRSA, and occasionally buying and selling farmland at a profit. It operates mainly in Argentina, with some farming operations in Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay. Its large land bank — owning hundreds of thousands of hectares — gives it a tangible asset base that is hard to replicate. The biggest risk the company faces is Argentina's chronic economic instability, including currency controls, high inflation, and government policy changes that can sharply affect profits and asset values.

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.
