Investment thesis

Bull case

  • Tangible assets of 1.71B provide robust 112.82x coverage of other current liabilities 15.12M, indicating strong asset backing.
  • Operating cash flow of 220.14M fully covers other non-current liabilities 89.06M by 2.47x, showing strong long-term stability.

Bear case

  • Operating cash flow of 220.14M barely covers its investment activities of (138.56M), with a coverage ratio of -1.59, indicating heavy reliance on external financing for growth which may not be sustainable in a tighter credit environment.

  • High depreciation of 282.10M relative to operating cash flow of 220.14M, which is 1.28x suggests significant maintenance capital requirements affecting free cash flow.
