Samhi Hotels Faces Significant Stock Volatility Amidst Mixed Financial Performance

Samhi Hotels has experienced significant volatility today, reaching a new 52-week low of Rs. 120.35, reflecting a decline of 18.74% at its intraday low. The stock has underperformed the broader hotel, resort, and restaurant sector, which has seen a decrease of 5.86%. Over the past two days, Samhi Hotels has recorded a cumulative drop of 7.96%, continuing a trend of consecutive losses.
In terms of moving averages, the stock is currently trading below its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages, indicating a bearish technical outlook. The company's performance over the past year shows a decline of 32.65%, significantly worse than the Sensex, which has fallen by only 2.31% during the same period.

Despite these challenges, Samhi Hotels reported a notable net profit growth of 80.59% in December 2024, marking positive results for five consecutive quarters. The company maintains a high institutional ownership of 73.31%, suggesting a level of confidence among larger investors. However, its long-term fundamentals remain weak, with a return on capital employed (ROCE) of 7.25% and a high debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 5.84 times.
