Attractive stocks have exceptional fundamentals. In the case of Sing Holdings Limited (SGX:5IC), there's is a financially-sound company with a a strong history of performance, trading at a great value. Below is a brief commentary on these key aspects. If you're interested in understanding beyond my broad commentary, take a look at the report on Sing Holdings here.
Good value with proven track record
5IC delivered a triple-digit bottom-line expansion over the past couple of years, with its most recent earnings level surpassing its average level over the last five years. In addition to beating its historical values, 5IC also outperformed its industry, which delivered a growth of 11%. This is an optimistic signal for the future. 5IC's strong financial health means that all of its upcoming liability payments are able to be met by its current cash and short-term investment holdings. This indicates that 5IC has sufficient cash flows and proper cash management in place, which is an important determinant of the company’s health. Debt funding requires timely payments on interest to lenders. 5IC’s earnings sufficiently covered its interest in the prior year, which indicates there’s low risk associated with the company not being able to meet these key expenses.
5IC is currently trading below its true value, which means the market is undervaluing the company's expected cash flow going forward. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts' consensus forecast growth be correct. Compared to the rest of the real estate industry, 5IC is also trading below its peers, relative to earnings generated. This bolsters the proposition that 5IC's price is currently discounted.
