Wal Mart de Mexico SAB de CV

Discount StoresVerified

The company maintains a conservative capital structure with a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.4, indicating a relatively low reliance on debt financing. However, liquidity is assessed as medium, with a current ratio of 0.94, suggesting limited short-term liquidity cushion. Free cash flow of 10.3 billion MXN supports operational flexibility, though cash and equivalents of 5.16 billion MXN are significantly lower than long-term debt of 76.6 billion MXN, resulting in a net cash deficit. Profitability metrics show a return on equity of 6.46% and a return on assets of 2.74%, both below the industry median for Discount Stores. The operating margin of 7.9% (calculated from operating income of 17.98 billion MXN on revenue of 227.42 billion MXN) is in line with the cohort median, but net margin of 5.5% (12.51 billion MXN net income) is slightly below the industry average. Geographically, the company is concentrated in Mexico, with no disclosed international revenue segments. Segment-wise, the business is primarily composed of retail operations, with no material diversification into ancillary services or digital commerce. Revenue growth has been stable, with a trailing twelve-month revenue of 227.42 billion MXN. Analysts project a mean price target of 66.29 MXN, with a median of 67.00 MXN, suggesting moderate upside potential. The company's capital expenditure of 10.91 billion MXN reflects ongoing investment in store infrastructure and logistics. Risk factors include medium liquidity risk due to the current ratio below 1 and a net cash deficit. Dilution risk is assessed as low, with no near-term pressure from share issuance or ATM programs. The company's exposure to domestic economic conditions and currency fluctuations in Mexico adds operational risk, though no material regulatory changes are currently flagged. Recent investor relations activity includes analyst price targets and recommendations, with a mean recommendation of 2.65 (1=strong buy, 5=strong sell) and 9 "hold" ratings. No material earnings call transcripts or 10-K filings have been disclosed in the latest data.
