Expo Gas Containers Adjusts Valuation Amidst Debt Concerns and Sales Surge

Expo Gas Containers has recently undergone an adjustment in evaluation, reflecting the company's current market dynamics and financial metrics. The engineering sector microcap has shown a modest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.25% in operating profits over the past five years. However, the company's ability to manage its debt remains a point of concern, as indicated by a high Debt to EBITDA ratio of 9.29 times.
In terms of profitability, the average Return on Equity (ROE) is recorded at a low 1.41%, suggesting challenges in generating returns for shareholders. The Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) stands at 8.9, which may imply a relatively expensive valuation, further emphasized by an Enterprise Value to Capital Employed ratio of 2.7.

Despite these financial indicators, Expo Gas Containers has achieved a notable return of 212.10% over the past year, although profits have only increased by 149.8%, leading to a PEG ratio of 0.9. On a positive note, the company has experienced significant growth in net sales, which surged by 70.5% to Rs 31.90 crore, and operating cash flow reached a record high of Rs 1.06 crore.
