Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd (SZSE:300408) Has A Rock Solid Balance Sheet
David Iben put it well when he said, 'Volatility is not a risk we care about. What we care about is avoiding the 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. Importantly, Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group) Co.,Ltd. (SZSE:300408) does carry debt. But is this debt a concern to shareholders?
David Iben說得很好,'波動性不是我們關心的風險。我們關心的是避免資本的永久損失。'因此,聰明的投資者知道債務——通常涉及破產的因素——在評估公司風險時是非常重要的。重要的是,潮州恒基(集團)有限公司(SZSE:300408)確實負債。但這筆債務對股東來說是一個問題嗎?
When Is Debt Dangerous?
債務何時有危險?
Debt assists a business until the business has trouble paying it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. If things get really bad, the lenders can take control of the business. However, a more usual (but still expensive) situation is where a company must dilute shareholders at a cheap share price simply to get debt under control. Of course, the upside of debt is that it often represents cheap capital, especially when it replaces dilution in a company with the ability to reinvest at high rates of return. When we examine debt levels, we first consider both cash and debt levels, together.
債務可以幫助企業,直到企業遇到償還困難,要麼通過新的資本要麼自由現金流償還。如果情況變得非常糟糕,借款人可能控制企業。然而,更常見的情況是企業必須在便宜的股票價格下稀釋股東權益,以控制債務。當然,債務的好處在於它經常代表着廉價資本,特別是當它用高回報率的再投資能力替換稀釋股份時。當我們審查債務水平時,我們首先考慮現金和債務水平。

下面的圖片(點擊可查看更詳細信息)顯示,2024年6月,潮州恒基(集團)有限公司的債務金額爲CN¥68100萬,比一年前的CN¥47310萬增加。然而,其資產負債表顯示其持有CN¥68.9億現金,因此它實際上有CN¥62.1億淨現金。
How Healthy Is Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd's Balance Sheet?
潮州三環(集團)有限公司的資產負債表有多健康?
According to the last reported balance sheet, Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd had liabilities of CN¥2.79b due within 12 months, and liabilities of CN¥1.28b due beyond 12 months. Offsetting these obligations, it had cash of CN¥6.89b as well as receivables valued at CN¥2.43b due within 12 months. So it can boast CN¥5.24b more liquid assets than total liabilities.
根據最近報告的資產負債表,潮州三環(集團)有限公司的短期負債爲人民幣27.9億,長期負債爲人民幣12.8億。 抵消這些義務,它擁有人民幣68.9億的現金以及24.3億的應收賬款,到期時間在12個月內。 因此,它可以自豪地宣稱比總負債多了52.4億的流動資產。
This surplus suggests that Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd has a conservative balance sheet, and could probably eliminate its debt without much difficulty. Succinctly put, Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd boasts net cash, so it's fair to say it does not have a heavy debt load!
這一盈餘表明潮州三環(集團)有限公司具有保守的資產負債表,可能可以輕鬆清除債務。 簡潔地說,潮州三環(集團)有限公司擁有淨現金,因此可以說它沒有沉重的債務負擔!
On top of that, Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd grew its EBIT by 66% over the last twelve months, and that growth will make it easier to handle its debt. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. But ultimately the future profitability of the business will decide if Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd can strengthen its balance sheet over time. So if you want to see what the professionals think, you might find this free report on analyst profit forecasts to be interesting.
此外,潮州三環(集團)有限公司過去十二個月將其EBIt增長了66%,這種增長將使其更容易處理債務。 在分析債務時,資產負債表顯然是需要關注的領域。 但最終,業務未來的盈利能力將決定潮州三環(集團)有限公司是否能夠隨着時間加強其資產負債表。 所以如果您想了解專業人士的看法,您可能會發現分析師盈利預測的免費報告很有趣。
Finally, while the tax-man may adore accounting profits, lenders only accept cold hard cash. While Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd has net cash on its balance sheet, it's still worth taking a look at its ability to convert earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) to free cash flow, to help us understand how quickly it is building (or eroding) that cash balance. In the last three years, Chaozhou Three-Circle (Group)Ltd's free cash flow amounted to 49% of its EBIT, less than we'd expect. That weak cash conversion makes it more difficult to handle indebtedness.
最後,儘管稅務部門可能喜愛會計利潤,但貸款人只接受現金。 雖然潮州三環(集團)有限公司在其資產負債表上有淨現金,但值得看一下其將利息和稅前利潤(EBIT)轉化爲自由現金流的能力,以幫助我們了解它快速積累(或耗盡)現金的速度。 在過去的三年中,潮州三環(集團)有限公司的自由現金流佔其EBIt的比例爲49%,低於我們的預期。 這種較弱的現金轉換使其更難處理負債。
