Investment thesis

Bull case

  • Strong tangible asset base of 100.94M provides 26.56x coverage of total debt 3.80M, indicating robust asset backing and low credit risk.
  • Tangible assets of 100.94M provide robust 24.66x coverage of other current liabilities 4.09M, indicating strong asset backing.
  • Cash reserves of 3.92M provide solid 1.41x coverage of other non-current liabilities 2.78M, indicating strong liquidity.
  • Robust R&D investment of 6.42M at 0.73x of SG&A 8.78M demonstrates strong commitment to innovation and future growth.
  • Tangible assets of 100.94M provide robust 2.04x coverage of current liabilities 49.49M, showing strong asset backing.

Bear case

  • Operating cash flow of (5.49M) barely covers its investment activities of (5.75M), with a coverage ratio of 0.96, indicating heavy reliance on external financing for growth which may not be sustainable in a tighter credit environment.
  • With cash reserves of 3.92M against inventory of 22.29M, the 0.18 cash-to-inventory ratio suggests potential liquidity risks if inventory turnover slows, particularly concerning given current supply chain volatilities.
  • Investment activities of (5.75M) provide weak support for R&D spending of 6.42M, which is -0.90x, suggesting potentially insufficient investment in innovation relative to other capital deployment.
  • The company's operating cash flow of (5.49M) shows concerning coverage of stock compensation expenses of 8.32M, with a -0.66 ratio indicating potential earnings quality issues.
  • Free cash flow of (11.24M) provides weak coverage of capital expenditures of 5.75M, with a -1.96 ratio suggesting additional external financing needs for growth initiatives.
