Description

Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

GAON CABLE Co., Ltd. sits in the middle of our grid: average quality, average price, no obvious signal in either direction. Worth noting: the cash the business generates has lagged behind what the income statement shows.

On valuation, the picture is expensive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 76.0×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year.

Growth is moderate; the safety picture is stretched. The company scores 14/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator. Analyst sentiment is cautious.

Flags to be aware of: Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
