The external fund manager backed by Berkshire Hathaway's Charlie Munger, Li Lu, makes no bones about it when he says 'The biggest investment risk is not the volatility of prices, but whether you will suffer a permanent loss of capital.' So it seems the smart money knows that debt - which is usually involved in bankruptcies - is a very important factor, when you assess how risky a company is. We can see that Top Energy Company Ltd.Shanxi (SHSE:600780) does use debt in its business. But is this debt a concern to shareholders?

伯克希爾哈撒韋的查理·芒格支持的外部基金經理李錄如實坦言:'最大的投資風險不是價格的波動,而是你是否會遭受永久性資本損失。'因此,聰明的資金知道,債務(通常與破產有關)是評估公司風險時的一個非常重要因素。我們可以看到,山西證券供股通寶能源公司(SHSE:600780)在業務中使用債務。但這筆債務會讓股東擔憂嗎?

Why Does Debt Bring Risk?

爲什麼債務會帶來風險?

Debt assists a business until the business has trouble paying it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. Part and parcel of capitalism is the process of 'creative destruction' where failed businesses are mercilessly liquidated by their bankers. However, a more frequent (but still costly) occurrence is where a company must issue shares at bargain-basement prices, permanently diluting shareholders, just to shore up its balance sheet. Of course, debt can be an important tool in businesses, particularly capital heavy businesses. When we examine debt levels, we first consider both cash and debt levels, together.

債務可以幫助業務,直到業務因新資本或自由現金流而無法償還爲止。資本主義的組成部分是「創造性破壞」過程,在這個過程中,銀行家們無情地清算失敗的企業。然而,更頻繁(但仍然昂貴)的情況是,一家公司必須以低廉的價格發行股票,永久稀釋股東權益,以鞏固其資產負債表。當然,債務可以成爲企業的重要工具,特別是對於重資本的企業來說。當我們審查債務水平時,首先考慮現金和債務水平。

How Strong Is Top Energy CompanyShanxi's Balance Sheet?

According to the last reported balance sheet, Top Energy CompanyShanxi had liabilities of CN¥2.34b due within 12 months, and liabilities of CN¥636.5m due beyond 12 months. On the other hand, it had cash of CN¥2.46b and CN¥925.7m worth of receivables due within a year. So it can boast CN¥410.3m more liquid assets than total liabilities.

根據最近披露的資產負債表,通寶能源山西證券供股的短期負債爲23.4億人民幣,長期負債爲63650萬人民幣。另一方面,它有24.6億人民幣的現金和92570萬人民幣的應收款項,均在一年內到期。因此,它比總負債多擁有41030萬人民幣的流動資產。

This surplus suggests that Top Energy CompanyShanxi has a conservative balance sheet, and could probably eliminate its debt without much difficulty. Succinctly put, Top Energy CompanyShanxi boasts net cash, so it's fair to say it does not have a heavy debt load!

這種盈餘表明通寶能源山西證券供股有一個保守的資產負債表,可能很容易清償其債務。簡而言之,通寶能源山西證券供股擁有淨現金,因此可以說它沒有沉重的債務負擔!

In fact Top Energy CompanyShanxi's saving grace is its low debt levels, because its EBIT has tanked 37% in the last twelve months. When a company sees its earnings tank, it can sometimes find its relationships with its lenders turn sour. When analysing debt levels, the balance sheet is the obvious place to start. But it is Top Energy CompanyShanxi's earnings that will influence how the balance sheet holds up in the future. So when considering debt, it's definitely worth looking at the earnings trend.

事實上,通寶能源山西證券供股的救命稻草是其較低的債務水平,因爲其EBIt在過去十二個月下降了37%。當一家公司看到其盈利大幅下降時,有時可能會發現與放貸人的關係變得緊張。在分析債務水平時,資產負債表是顯而易見的起點。但通寶能源山西證券供股的收入將影響資產負債表未來的表現。因此,在考慮債務時,確實值得關注收入趨勢。點擊此處查看互動快照。

Finally, a business needs free cash flow to pay off debt; accounting profits just don't cut it. Top Energy CompanyShanxi may have net cash on the balance sheet, but it is still interesting to look at how well the business converts its earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) to free cash flow, because that will influence both its need for, and its capacity to manage debt. Over the last three years, Top Energy CompanyShanxi actually produced more free cash flow than EBIT. That sort of strong cash generation warms our hearts like a puppy in a bumblebee suit.

最後,一家企業需要自由現金流來償還債務;會計利潤並不能解決問題。通寶能源山西證券供股的資產負債表上可能會有淨現金,但查看企業將其利潤(息稅前利潤)轉化爲自由現金流的能力也很有意思,因爲這將影響其對債務的需求和管理能力。在過去的三年中,通寶能源山西證券供股實際上產生的自由現金流比EBIt還要多。這種強勁的現金生成讓我們感到像看到穿着蜜蜂服的小狗一樣溫暖。
