ALSOK Co Ltd

ALSOK maintains a strong liquidity position with JPY 166.14 billion in cash and equivalents, supported by a current ratio of 2.14 and a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.25. The company's price-to-book ratio of 1.44 and price-to-tangible-book ratio of 1.44 suggest a moderate valuation relative to its equity base. Free cash flow of JPY 7.3 billion indicates the company generates sufficient cash to support operations and potential reinvestment. Profitability metrics show a return on equity (ROE) of 8.67% and a return on assets (ROA) of 4.93%, which are in line with industry norms for business support services. The company's operating margin of 7.93% (calculated from operating income of JPY 47.35 billion on revenue of JPY 597.03 billion) reflects efficient cost management. Gross profit of JPY 143.06 billion on total revenue of JPY 597.03 billion indicates a gross margin of 23.96%. ALSOK's revenue is primarily concentrated in Japan, with no material international exposure disclosed in the financial snapshot. The company operates in a domestic-focused business support services industry, which may limit its exposure to global market fluctuations. The company's revenue growth trajectory is not explicitly provided, but the current fiscal year outlook suggests a stable operating environment. Analysts have assigned a mean price target of JPY 1,393.33, with a median of JPY 1,380.00, indicating a potential upside from the current market price of JPY 1,138.50. The mean recommendation of 2.17 (on a scale of 1 to 5) suggests a generally positive outlook from analysts. ALSOK's risk assessment indicates low liquidity and dilution risks, with no immediate filing-based flags detected. The company's capital structure is conservative, with long-term debt of JPY 94.12 billion and total equity of JPY 383.63 billion, resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of 0.25. No dilution pressure is currently expected, as shares outstanding remain unchanged between basic and diluted counts. Recent events and filings do not indicate any material changes in the company's operations or financial position. Analysts have provided a range of price targets, with the highest at JPY 1,600.00 and the lowest at JPY 1,220.00, reflecting a broad consensus on the company's valuation potential.
