The company reported a Total Revenue of $2.05B over the trailing twelve months, generating a Net Income of $29.57M and an EBITDA of $201.79M. The substantial gap between the $2.05B revenue and the $29.57M net income reveals a cost structure where operating expenses and taxes consume a significant portion of top-line sales before reaching the bottom line. Free Cash Flow stands at $74.88M, which indicates a degree of financial flexibility available for capital expenditures, debt repayment, or strategic initiatives despite the leverage on the balance sheet. The company reports a Gross Margin of 20.7%, an Operating Margin of 6.8%, and a Profit Margin of 1.5%, indicating that after accounting for the cost of goods sold and operating overhead, the final profitability per dollar of sales is relatively low. Cash reserves amount to $36.95M, while total debt sits at $937.17M, creating a scenario where liabilities significantly exceed liquid assets, suggesting a leveraged balance sheet rather than a conservative one. Although the Debt to Equity ratio is listed as N/A, the disparity between cash and debt highlights a high reliance on borrowed capital. The Current Ratio is recorded at 0.82, which indicates that current liabilities exceed current assets, pointing to potential short-term liquidity constraints if immediate obligations were to become due. Return on Assets is calculated at 7.9%, while Return on Equity is listed as N/A, suggesting that management generates a moderate return on the asset base but equity metrics are not currently disclosed or applicable in this reporting period.
मूल्यांकन आकलन
The stock carries a Trailing P/E ratio of 35.29 compared to a Forward P/E of 17.44, implying that the market currently prices in significantly lower earnings in the future relative to the depressed historical earnings. The Price to Book ratio is recorded at -2.34, which indicates that the market price is trading below the book value, a metric often seen in capital-intensive or distressed sectors rather than reflecting a premium over book value. The Price to Sales ratio stands at 0.51, while the EV/EBITDA multiple is 9.69, suggesting that alternative valuation metrics view the company as trading at a discount relative to its sales and earnings power. The 52-week high is $55.74 and the 52-week low is $29.55, placing the current trading price within this historical range and reflecting recent volatility. The Beta value of 1.24 indicates that the stock's price volatility is higher than the broader market, meaning it tends to move with greater amplitude than the overall market index.
Growth & Income
Revenue growth year-over-year is -6.1%, while earnings growth year-over-year is -53.5%, indicating that earnings are shrinking at a much faster rate than revenue, which typically implies rising costs or margin compression rather than volume issues. The company offers a Dividend Yield of 5.8%, supported by a Payout Ratio of 204.4%, which signals that the dividend payments exceed the reported net income, making the payout mathematically unsustainable based on current earnings performance. Given the payout ratio exceeding 100%, the company is not retaining earnings for organic growth in the traditional sense but is funding distributions from cash flows or reserves. The overall growth and income profile presents a mixed picture characterized by declining earnings, a high-yield but potentially unsustained dividend, and negative revenue momentum.
