Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Sapporo Holdings Limited is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group.

The price is fair. You pay 18.8× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically fair zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly 5% yearly growth; analysts expect -42%. The market is pricing in far more than analysts expect: heroic expectations.

The trajectory is moderate and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value. Analyst sentiment is cautious.

What to watch: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
