Saunders International Ltd

Construction & EngineeringVerified

Saunders International has a liquidity position characterized by a current ratio of 1.39 and cash and equivalents of 22,076,000 AUD, indicating a moderate ability to meet short-term obligations. The company's liquidity FPT (free cash flow to total debt) is not explicitly provided, but the free cash flow of -1,237,000 AUD suggests a negative liquidity position in the most recent period. Profitability metrics show a return on equity (ROE) of 3.97% and a return on assets (ROA) of 2.02%, which are below the industry_config preferred metrics for construction and engineering firms. The company's operating income of 3,113,000 AUD and net income of 2,077,000 AUD indicate a relatively low margin compared to industry benchmarks. The company's revenue is split between two segments: Water and Multi-Sector. The Water segment focuses on water storage, pipelines, and sewer networks, while the Multi-Sector segment serves defense, energy, and resources & industrials. The geographic exposure is primarily in Australia and the Pacific Region, with no significant international diversification reported. The company's growth trajectory is modest, with no specific numeric deltas provided for the current or next fiscal year. Historical revenue of 214,523,000 AUD suggests a stable but not rapidly growing business. The capital expenditure of -2,205,000 AUD indicates a reduction in investment in physical assets. Risk factors include a low liquidity risk and a low dilution risk, with no immediate filing-based liquidity or dilution flags detected. The debt-to-equity ratio of 0.2 suggests a conservative capital structure, but the negative free cash flow could pose a challenge in maintaining this structure. Recent events include the latest financial filing, which shows a market price of 0.85 AUD and a market cap of 118,653,341.1 AUD. The company's price-to-earnings ratio of 57.13 and price-to-book ratio of 2.27 indicate a relatively high valuation compared to its earnings and book value.
