Quality Assessment Highlights Strong Growth with Balanced Financials
ASM Technologies Ltd is classified as an average quality company based on its long-term financial performance. The management risk is assessed as average, while growth metrics are excellent and capital structure is rated good. The company has achieved a five-year sales compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 30.92% and a five-year EBIT growth of 45.57%, underscoring its ability to expand revenue and earnings consistently.
Despite these strengths, some financial ratios indicate areas of caution. The average EBIT to interest coverage ratio stands at 3.40x, which is considered weak, and the average debt to EBITDA ratio is relatively high at 4.23x. However, the company maintains low leverage with an average net debt to equity ratio of 0.10. The average sales to capital employed ratio is 1.34x, and the tax ratio is 27.77%. Return on capital employed (ROCE) and return on equity (ROE) are modest at 13.45% and 14.14% respectively.
The company’s dividend payout ratio of 39.62% and consistent dividend payments reflect a balanced approach to rewarding shareholders while retaining capital for growth. Pledged shares constitute 9.31% of the total, and institutional holdings are low at 1.21%, indicating a predominantly retail or promoter-driven shareholding pattern.
Recent Financial Trends Show Positive Momentum
In the short term, ASM Technologies Ltd’s financial trend remains positive as of March 2026. Net sales for the latest six months reached ₹251.14 crores, growing at 40.11%, while profit after tax (PAT) stood at ₹27.21 crores, up 31.40%. The company’s debtors turnover ratio for the half-year is strong at 4.57 times, indicating efficient receivables management.
