AB&Company Co Ltd

Personal ServicesVerified

AB&Company Co Ltd has a market price of 1208 JPY per share, with a market capitalization of 17.21 billion JPY. The company's price-to-earnings ratio is 19.25, and its price-to-book ratio is 1.91, indicating a moderate premium over book value. The enterprise value to EBITDA ratio is 17.44, and the enterprise value to revenue ratio is 1.47, suggesting a relatively high valuation relative to earnings and revenue. The company's profitability is reflected in a return on equity of 9.94% and a return on assets of 3.3%, which are key metrics for assessing the efficiency of capital use and asset management. The operating income of 1.63 billion JPY and net income of 894 million JPY indicate a healthy margin, although the operating margin is not explicitly provided. AB&Company Co Ltd's revenue is distributed across three segments: Directly Managed Beauty Salon Operation, Franchise, and Interior Design. The company's geographic exposure is primarily within Japan, with no significant international operations disclosed. The franchise segment likely contributes to revenue diversification, but the exact revenue concentration by segment is not provided. The company's growth trajectory is supported by a free cash flow of 2.39 billion JPY and an operating cash flow of 2.88 billion JPY, indicating strong liquidity. The capital expenditure of -411 million JPY suggests a reduction in capital spending. Analysts estimate a mean revenue of 22.2 billion JPY for the current fiscal year, compared to the actual revenue of 19.38 billion JPY, indicating a projected growth of 14.5%. The risk assessment for AB&Company Co Ltd highlights a medium liquidity risk and a low dilution risk. The company's debt-to-equity ratio is 1.5, and the current ratio is 0.69, indicating a moderate level of leverage and a potential liquidity constraint. The key flag of negative net cash after subtracting total debt suggests a need for careful liquidity management. Recent events and filings do not provide specific details on new initiatives or strategic changes. The company's financial performance and risk profile suggest a stable but cautious outlook, with a focus on maintaining liquidity and managing debt levels.
