Winston Score History

The full picture

Supreme Plc is a UK-based company that makes and sells everyday consumer products across several categories. Its core businesses include batteries, lighting, vaping products, and sports nutrition supplements. It sells these products to major UK retailers, discount stores, and wholesalers, making it one of the larger own-label and value-brand suppliers in Britain.

Supreme earns money by manufacturing or sourcing products at low cost and selling them in bulk to retail partners, keeping margins through volume and operational efficiency. The company operates almost entirely in the UK, with a market cap of around £200 million, and its competitive edge comes from long-standing retailer relationships and the ability to supply multiple product categories under one roof. The main risk is that its vaping division faces increasing regulatory scrutiny in the UK, including potential restrictions on disposable vapes, which has been a fast-growing but uncertain part of the business in recent years.

Growth + cash flow

Supreme is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 17%. 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

0.7% over 4y

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

Diluted shares outstanding: 121.1M (2022) → 120.2M (2026)
