Cake Box Holdings
Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★★★
Overview: Cake Box Holdings Plc, with a market cap of £82.94 million, operates in the United Kingdom retail sector specializing in fresh cream celebration cakes through its subsidiaries.
Operations: The company generates its revenue from the food processing segment, amounting to £38.62 million.
Market Cap: £82.94M
Cake Box Holdings Plc, with a market cap of £82.94 million, has demonstrated financial stability with its debt well covered by operating cash flow and more cash than total debt. Its recent follow-on equity offerings raised £7.2 million, potentially bolstering growth initiatives. The company shows consistent earnings growth, exceeding its five-year average and maintaining high-quality earnings with improved profit margins. However, the dividend is not well covered by free cash flows and the board's average tenure suggests a lack of experience. Trading at 49.8% below estimated fair value presents potential opportunities for investors seeking undervalued stocks in the retail sector.
