For those interested in understanding where the figures come from and want to see the analysis, take a look at the report on Groupe Guillin here.
Flawless balance sheet, undervalued and pays a dividend
ALGIL's strong financial health means that all of its upcoming liability payments are able to be met by its current cash and short-term investment holdings. This suggests prudent control over cash and cost by management, which is a key determinant of the company’s health. ALGIL appears to have made good use of debt, producing operating cash levels of 0.49x total debt in the prior year. This is a strong indication that debt is reasonably met with cash generated. ALGIL is currently trading below its true value, which means the market is undervaluing the company's expected cash flow going forward. Investors have the opportunity to buy into the stock to reap capital gains, if ALGIL's projected earnings trajectory does follow analyst consensus growth, which determines my intrinsic value of the company. Compared to the rest of the materials industry, ALGIL is also trading below its peers, relative to earnings generated. This supports the theory that ALGIL is potentially underpriced.
For those seeking income streams from their portfolio, ALGIL is a robust dividend payer as well. Over the past decade, the company has consistently increased its dividend payout, reaching a yield of 3.3%.
