Analysis

Bargain bin

Kansai Paint Co., Ltd. is priced cheaply, and that invites the natural question of why, since the underlying business scores below average.

On valuation, the picture is attractive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 11.9×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around -1% a year, against analyst forecasts of 6%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is moderate; the safety picture is adequate. The company scores 7/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

No flags apply to this company at this time: accounts, balance sheet, and cash quality all pass. A clean bill of health is meaningful, not just the absence of a warning. This analysis describes numbers; it is not investment advice.
