Overview: Jasmine International Public Company Limited operates in the telecommunications sector in Thailand and has a market capitalization of THB20.23 billion.
Operations: Jasmine International generates revenue primarily from its Digital Asset & Technology Solution Business, amounting to THB2.50 billion.
Jasmine International, a relatively small player in the telecom sector, has recently turned profitable with net income of THB 77.03 million for Q2 2024, compared to a loss of THB 794.16 million the previous year. This turnaround is bolstered by its impressive debt management; the debt-to-equity ratio dropped from 41.2% to just 6.4% over five years. Despite high volatility in share price lately, JAS's interest payments are well-covered by EBIT at an impressive ratio of 187x, reflecting strong financial health and operational efficiency within its industry context.

Operations: Kelin Electric generates revenue primarily from its electrical equipment manufacturing segment, amounting to CN¥4.19 billion. The company's financial data indicates a focus on this core segment as the main source of income.
Shijiazhuang Kelin Electric, a smaller player in the electrical industry, has shown impressive earnings growth of 48.7% over the past year, surpassing the industry average of 0.8%. Despite this growth, net income for the nine months ended September 2024 was CNY 148.96 million, down from CNY 179.62 million a year earlier. The company's net debt to equity ratio stands at a satisfactory level of 28.4%, although it has increased from 24.8% to 65% over five years. Trading at about 83% below its estimated fair value suggests potential undervaluation in market perception despite high-quality earnings and well-covered interest payments with an EBIT coverage of 8.8x.

Trading at 60.3% below its estimated fair value, it offers a compelling investment opportunity. The company's net debt to equity ratio stands at a satisfactory 37.3%, reflecting prudent financial management over time as this metric improved from 82.7% to 50.6%.
