Cairo Oils & Soap Co SAE

Food ProcessingVerified

Cairo Oils & Soap Co SAE maintains a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.68, indicating a moderate reliance on debt financing. The company's liquidity position is assessed as medium, with a current ratio of 0.95, suggesting limited short-term liquidity cushion. Free cash flow of EGP 28.27 million supports operational flexibility, but operating cash flow is negative at EGP -82.69 million, signaling potential working capital constraints. Profitability metrics show a return on equity of 8.19% and a return on assets of 3.49%. These figures are below the industry median for food processing companies, indicating suboptimal capital efficiency and asset utilization. Gross profit of EGP 61.93 million represents 16.63% of revenue, but operating income of EGP 41.77 million reflects a 11.22% margin, which is in line with the sector average. The company's revenue is concentrated in Egypt and the broader Middle East, with no disclosed segment breakdown. This geographic concentration exposes the business to regional economic volatility and currency fluctuations. No material diversification across product lines is evident from the financial data. Growth trajectory is constrained by weak operating cash flow and a negative net cash position. Revenue of EGP 372.34 million in the latest period shows no year-over-year growth data, and capital expenditures of EGP -2.80 million suggest minimal investment in expansion. The company's diluted share count remains unchanged at 624 million shares, indicating no recent dilution. Risk factors include medium liquidity risk due to a current ratio below 1 and a negative net cash position after subtracting total debt. Dilution risk is assessed as low, with no recent share issuance or ATM/shelf registration activity disclosed. The absence of significant debt covenants or regulatory exposure reduces near-term financial risk. Recent filings and transcripts are not available in the provided data. The company's 10-K or annual report would be required to assess management commentary, strategic initiatives, or material events impacting operations.
