Building up an investment case requires looking at a stock holistically. Today I've chosen to put the spotlight on Virscend Education Company Limited (HKG:1565) due to its excellent fundamentals in more than one area. 1565 is a company with robust financial health as well as a buoyant future outlook. Below is a brief commentary on these key aspects. For those interested in understanding where the figures come from and want to see the analysis, take a look at the report on Virscend Education here.
Exceptional growth potential with excellent balance sheet
1565 is an attractive stock for growth-seeking investors, with an expected earnings growth of 30% in the upcoming year. Earnings growth is paired with an eye-catching top-line trajectory of 67%, which indicates a high-quality bottom-line expansion, as opposed to those driven simple by unsustainable cost-cutting activities. 1565’s debt-to-equity ratio stands at 38%, which means its debt level is reasonable. This means that 1565’s capital structure strikes a good balance between low-cost debt funding and maintaining financial flexibility without overly restrictive terms of debt. 1565 appears to have made good use of debt, producing operating cash levels of 0.66x total debt in the prior year. This is a strong indication that debt is reasonably met with cash generated.
