Ace Software Exports Receives 'Hold' Rating After Impressive Financial Results

Ace Software Exports, a microcap IT software company, has recently received a 'Hold' rating from MarketsMOJO. This upgrade comes after the company declared positive results for the last three consecutive quarters.
In the half-year period, the company's profit after tax has grown by an impressive 545.83%, with net sales also showing a higher figure of Rs 23.06 crore. Additionally, the return on capital employed (ROCE) has reached its highest at 18.48%.

Technically, the stock is currently in a bullish range and has shown improvement from a mildly bullish trend on 9th October 2024. Multiple factors such as MACD, Bollinger Band, KST, and OBV are all indicating a bullish trend for the stock.

The majority shareholders of Ace Software Exports are the promoters, which is a positive sign for investors. The company has also consistently generated high returns over the last three years, outperforming the BSE 500 index.

However, the company's long-term fundamental strength is weak, with an average return on equity (ROE) of only 3.42%. The net sales and operating profit have also shown poor growth over the last five years. Additionally, the company's ability to service its debt is weak, with a poor EBIT to interest ratio.

The stock is currently trading at a very expensive valuation, with a price to book value of 8.1. However, it is still at a fair value compared to its average historical valuations. While the stock has generated a high return of 1730.92% in the past year, its profits have only risen by 612%, resulting in a PEG ratio of 0.

Overall, Ace Software Exports shows potential for growth with its positive financial results and bullish technical trend. However, investors should also consider the company's weak long-term fundamentals and expensive valuation before making any investment decisions.
