Antony Waste Handling Cell Downgraded to 'Sell' by MarketsMOJO, But Positive Factors Remain

Antony Waste Handling Cell, a smallcap company in the miscellaneous industry, has recently been downgraded to a 'Sell' by MarketsMOJO on October 21, 2024. This decision was based on the company's poor long-term growth, as its operating profit has only grown at an annual rate of 7.73% over the last 5 years. Additionally, the company has declared negative results for the last 3 consecutive quarters, with its interest and debt-equity ratio at concerning levels.
Institutional investors have also decreased their stake in the company by -2.6% over the previous quarter, holding only 15.94% collectively. This is a significant decrease, as institutional investors are known for their ability to analyze company fundamentals.

However, there are some positive factors to consider. Antony Waste Handling Cell has a high management efficiency with a ROCE of 19.56% and a low debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.14 times. The stock is also technically in a mildly bullish range, with multiple indicators such as MACD, Bollinger Band, KST, and OBV pointing towards a bullish trend.

In terms of valuation, the stock has a fair ROCE of 13.4 and is trading at a discount compared to its historical average. Over the past year, the stock has generated a return of 100.23%, while its profits have risen by 35.3%. This gives the company a PEG ratio of 0.7, indicating that it may be undervalued.

In the long term, Antony Waste Handling Cell has also outperformed the BSE 500 index, generating market-beating returns. Despite the recent downgrade, the company has shown strong performance in both the long and near term, making it a stock worth keeping an eye on.
