Financiële gezondheid
The company reported a trailing twelve-month revenue of $609.78 million, generating a net income of $71.32 million and an EBITDA of $83.74 million. The substantial gap between the $609.78 million in revenue and the $71.32 million in net income reveals a cost structure where significant expenses, including cost of goods sold and operating costs, are deducted before arriving at the bottom line, resulting in a profit margin of 11.7%. Free cash flow stands at $19.38 million, which indicates the company's ability to generate cash after capital expenditures, providing a measure of financial flexibility for operational needs or strategic initiatives. When analyzing profitability efficiency, the gross margin is 36.5%, the operating margin is 8.1%, and the profit margin is 11.7%, indicating that for every dollar of sales, a significant portion covers direct production costs, while the remaining 8.1% covers all operational expenses before interest and taxes. The balance sheet demonstrates a conservative stance as the company holds $196.87 million in cash against total debt of $14.82 million, a disparity highlighted by a debt-to-equity ratio of 4.47 which, in this context of high cash reserves, suggests low leverage risk relative to equity. Liquidity is robust with a current ratio of 3.62, indicating that the company possesses more than three times the current assets necessary to cover its short-term liabilities. Furthermore, return on equity is 24.2% and return on assets is 12.5%, metrics that reveal management is effectively utilizing shareholder equity and total assets to generate returns, though the high debt-to-equity figure requires careful interpretation alongside the strong cash position.
Waarderingsbeoordeling
Valuation metrics show a trailing P/E ratio of 42.86 and a forward P/E of 26.66, implying that the market expects earnings to grow significantly over the next year to bring the multiple down from current levels. The price-to-book ratio stands at 8.78, indicating that the market values the company at a substantial premium over its book value, reflecting investor confidence in the brand's intangible assets and future cash generation capabilities. Alternative valuation metrics provide additional context, with a price-to-sales ratio of 4.77 and an EV/EBITDA of 32.59, suggesting the market is willing to pay a high multiple relative to both sales and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Regarding price volatility, the stock's 52-week high was $61.39 and its 52-week low was $29.74. Based on the provided data points, the current trading price relative to this range indicates significant variance from the recent highs and lows, though the exact current price is not explicitly listed in the source facts; however, the range itself illustrates a wide trading band of $31.65. The beta value is 0.47, which means the stock price exhibits lower volatility relative to the broader market, moving less than half as much as the market index on average.
Growth & Income
Growth dynamics are characterized by a revenue growth rate of 0.4% year-over-year and an earnings growth rate of 75.6% year-over-year. This divergence indicates that earnings are growing substantially faster than revenue, which implies improved operational efficiency, cost management, or one-time gains impacting the net income calculation more heavily than top-line sales. As the dividend yield is listed as N/A and the payout ratio is 0.0%, the company does not distribute dividends to shareholders. Instead of providing current income through dividends, the firm reinvests its earnings into business operations, expansion, or balance sheet strengthening to drive future growth. Consequently, the overall growth and income profile for The Vita Coco Company, Inc. is defined by strong earnings expansion and a reinvestment strategy rather than a focus on dividend distribution, catering to investors seeking capital appreciation potential over current yield.
