Bohae Brewery Co Ltd

Bohae Brewery Co Ltd maintains a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.44, indicating a relatively conservative capital structure with liabilities significantly lower than equity. The company's liquidity position is assessed as medium, with a current ratio of 0.95, suggesting that it has nearly enough current assets to cover its current liabilities. Free cash flow of 2.55 billion KRW indicates the company is generating positive cash from operations after capital expenditures.

Profitability metrics show a return on equity (ROE) of 1.43% and a return on assets (ROA) of 0.84%, both below the typical thresholds for high-performing firms in the Distillers & Wineries industry. The operating margin, calculated as operating income of 1.09 billion KRW on revenue of 22.13 billion KRW, is 4.91%, which is in line with the industry median for similar-sized firms. However, the net profit margin of 5.25% is slightly above the industry median, indicating a relatively efficient cost structure.

The company's geographic and segment exposure is not explicitly detailed in the available data, but as a South Korean firm, it is likely concentrated in the domestic market. No specific revenue concentration by segment or geography is disclosed in the financial snapshot.

The company's revenue growth trajectory is not explicitly provided, but the current free cash flow and operating cash flow suggest a stable operational performance. The capital expenditure of -428.61 million KRW indicates a reduction in capital spending, which may signal a focus on cost control or a shift in strategic priorities.

The risk assessment highlights a medium liquidity risk, primarily due to the company's current ratio being slightly below 1.0. The dilution risk is assessed as low, with no significant dilution potential identified in the basic shares outstanding. The key flag of negative net cash after subtracting total debt suggests a potential liquidity constraint, though the debt-to-equity ratio remains moderate.

Recent events and filings do not show any material changes in the company's financial position or strategic direction. The last actual EPS reported is -131.00 KRW, indicating a loss per share, which may be a concern for investors.
