Flawless balance sheet established dividend payer
CYD's share price is trading below its true value according to its price-to-earnings ratio of 5.88x compared to its industry as well as the wider stock market, which means it is relatively cheaper than its peers.
CYD's ability to maintain an adequate level of cash to meet upcoming liabilities is a good sign for its financial health. This suggests prudent control over cash and cost by management, which is an important determinant of the company’s health. CYD's has produced operating cash levels of 0.33x total debt over the past year, which implies that CYD's management has put its borrowings into good use by generating enough cash to cover a sufficient portion of borrowings.
