A Closer Look At Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd's Earnings

對紅旗連鎖股份有限公司盈利能力的進一步分析

One key financial ratio used to measure how well a company converts its profit to free cash flow (FCF) is the accrual ratio. The accrual ratio subtracts the FCF from the profit for a given period, and divides the result by the average operating assets of the company over that time. This ratio tells us how much of a company's profit is not backed by free cashflow.

用於衡量公司如何將其利潤轉化爲自由現金流(FCF)的一個關鍵財務比率是應計比率。應計比率從給定期間的自由現金流中減去利潤,然後將結果除以公司在那段時間內的平均營運資產。這個比率告訴我們,公司利潤中有多少不受自由現金流支持。

That means a negative accrual ratio is a good thing, because it shows that the company is bringing in more free cash flow than its profit would suggest. While having an accrual ratio above zero is of little concern, we do think it's worth noting when a company has a relatively high accrual ratio. Notably, there is some academic evidence that suggests that a high accrual ratio is a bad sign for near-term profits, generally speaking.

這意味着負的應計比率是一件好事,因爲它表明公司比其利潤所示帶來了更多的自由現金流。雖然應計比率高於零不足爲憑,但如果公司的應計比率相對較高,我們認爲這值得注意。值得注意的是,有一些學術證據表明,相對而言,高應計比率是短期利潤的不利信號。

For the year to September 2024, Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd had an accrual ratio of -0.35. Therefore, its statutory earnings were very significantly less than its free cashflow. In fact, it had free cash flow of CN¥1.3b in the last year, which was a lot more than its statutory profit of CN¥544.0m. Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd shareholders are no doubt pleased that free cash flow improved over the last twelve months. Having said that, there is more to the story. We can see that unusual items have impacted its statutory profit, and therefore the accrual ratio.

截至2024年9月,紅旗連鎖股份有限公司的計提比率爲-0.35。因此,其法定利潤遠遠低於其自由現金流。實際上,在過去一年中,其自由現金流爲13億人民幣,比其法定利潤54400萬人民幣要多得多。紅旗連鎖股份有限公司的股東無疑會對自由現金流在過去十二個月內的改善感到滿意。儘管如此,故事還有更多內容。我們可以看到,飛凡項目影響了其法定利潤,因此影響了計提比率。

How Do Unusual Items Influence Profit?

非常規項目如何影響利潤?

Surprisingly, given Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd's accrual ratio implied strong cash conversion, its paper profit was actually boosted by CN¥86m in unusual items. We can't deny that higher profits generally leave us optimistic, but we'd prefer it if the profit were to be sustainable. We ran the numbers on most publicly listed companies worldwide, and it's very common for unusual items to be once-off in nature. And, after all, that's exactly what the accounting terminology implies. If Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd doesn't see that contribution repeat, then all else being equal we'd expect its profit to drop over the current year.

有趣的是,給定紅旗連鎖有限公司的應計比率意味着強勁的現金轉化,其論文利潤實際上被8600萬人民幣的飛凡項目所推動。我們不得不承認,更高的利潤通常讓我們感到樂觀,但我們更希望利潤能夠持續。我們對全球大多數上市公司進行了數據分析,發現飛凡項目一般都是一次性的。畢竟,這正是會計術語的含義。如果紅旗連鎖有限公司沒有看到這種貢獻再現,那麼其他條件相等,我們預計其利潤將在當年下降。

Our Take On Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd's Profit Performance

我們對紅旗連鎖有限公司的利潤表現看法

Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd's profits got a boost from unusual items, which indicates they might not be sustained and yet its accrual ratio still indicated solid cash conversion, which is promising. Based on these factors, we think that Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd's profits are a reasonably conservative guide to its underlying profitability. Keep in mind, when it comes to analysing a stock it's worth noting the risks involved. For example - Chengdu Hongqi ChainLtd has 1 warning sign we think you should be aware of.

紅旗連鎖有限公司的利潤從飛凡項目獲得提振,這表明可能無法持續,而其應計比率仍顯示出良好的現金轉化,這令人振奮。基於這些因素,我們認爲紅旗連鎖有限公司的利潤是其潛在盈利能力的相對保守指引。請記住,在分析股票時,值得注意涉及的風險。例如 - 紅旗連鎖有限公司存在1個警告標誌,我們認爲您應該注意。

In this article we've looked at a number of factors that can impair the utility of profit numbers, as a guide to a business. But there is always more to discover if you are capable of focussing your mind on minutiae. For example, many people consider a high return on equity as an indication of favorable business economics, while others like to 'follow the money' and search out stocks that insiders are buying. While it might take a little research on your behalf, you may find this free collection of companies boasting high return on equity, or this list of stocks with significant insider holdings to be useful.

在本文中,我們已經考慮了許多因素,這些因素可能會影響利潤數字作爲業務指南的效用。但如果您有能力專注於細節,總是可以發現更多。例如,許多人認爲高淨資產回報率是有利的業務經濟指標,而其他人則喜歡「跟隨資金」並尋找內部人員正在買入的股票。儘管這可能需要您進行一些研究,但您可能會發現這個免費的高淨資產回報率的公司集合,或者這個持有重要內部股權的股票清單是有用的。
