Does China Education Group Holdings (HKG:839) Have A Healthy Balance Sheet?
Does China Education Group Holdings (HKG:839) Have A Healthy Balance Sheet?
Legendary fund manager Li Lu (who Charlie Munger backed) once said, 'The biggest investment risk is not the volatility of prices, but whether you will suffer a permanent loss of capital.' It's only natural to consider a company's balance sheet when you examine how risky it is, since debt is often involved when a business collapses. We note that China Education Group Holdings Limited (HKG:839) does have debt on its balance sheet. But is this debt a concern to shareholders?
Why Does Debt Bring Risk?
Debt and other liabilities become risky for a business when it cannot easily fulfill those obligations, either with free cash flow or by raising capital at an attractive price. If things get really bad, the lenders can take control of the business. However, a more common (but still painful) scenario is that it has to raise new equity capital at a low price, thus permanently diluting shareholders. Of course, debt can be an important tool in businesses, particularly capital heavy businesses. When we think about a company's use of debt, we first look at cash and debt together.

What Is China Education Group Holdings's Debt?
As you can see below, at the end of February 2022, China Education Group Holdings had CN¥8.88b of debt, up from CN¥7.15b a year ago. Click the image for more detail. However, because it has a cash reserve of CN¥5.01b, its net debt is less, at about CN¥3.87b.
SEHK:839 Debt to Equity History July 22nd 2022How Healthy Is China Education Group Holdings' Balance Sheet?
According to the last reported balance sheet, China Education Group Holdings had liabilities of CN¥8.00b due within 12 months, and liabilities of CN¥8.33b due beyond 12 months. Offsetting these obligations, it had cash of CN¥5.01b as well as receivables valued at CN¥374.8m due within 12 months. So it has liabilities totalling CN¥10.9b more than its cash and near-term receivables, combined.
This deficit is considerable relative to its market capitalization of CN¥14.1b, so it does suggest shareholders should keep an eye on China Education Group Holdings' use of debt. This suggests shareholders would be heavily diluted if the company needed to shore up its balance sheet in a hurry.
In order to size up a company's debt relative to its earnings, we calculate its net debt divided by its earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and its earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) divided by its interest expense (its interest cover). The advantage of this approach is that we take into account both the absolute quantum of debt (with net debt to EBITDA) and the actual interest expenses associated with that debt (with its interest cover ratio).
China Education Group Holdings's net debt to EBITDA ratio of about 1.8 suggests only moderate use of debt. And its strong interest cover of 10.1 times, makes us even more comfortable. We note that China Education Group Holdings grew its EBIT by 27% in the last year, and that should make it easier to pay down debt, going forward. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. But ultimately the future profitability of the business will decide if China Education Group Holdings can strengthen its balance sheet over time. So if you're focused on the future you can check out this free report showing analyst profit forecasts.
Finally, a company can only pay off debt with cold hard cash, not accounting profits. So we always check how much of that EBIT is translated into free cash flow. Over the last three years, China Education Group Holdings reported free cash flow worth 2.2% of its EBIT, which is really quite low. For us, cash conversion that low sparks a little paranoia about is ability to extinguish debt.
Our View
We feel some trepidation about China Education Group Holdings's difficulty conversion of EBIT to free cash flow, but we've got positives to focus on, too. To wit both its EBIT growth rate and interest cover were encouraging signs. Looking at all the angles mentioned above, it does seem to us that China Education Group Holdings is a somewhat risky investment as a result of its debt. That's not necessarily a bad thing, since leverage can boost returns on equity, but it is something to be aware of. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. However, not all investment risk resides within the balance sheet - far from it. For example, we've discovered 2 warning signs for China Education Group Holdings that you should be aware of before investing here.

傳奇基金經理理想汽車·盧曾説,最大的投資風險不是價格的波動,而是你是否會遭受永久性的資本損失。當你考察一家公司的風險有多大時,考慮它的資產負債表是很自然的,因為當一家企業倒閉時,債務往往會涉及到它。我們注意到中國教育集團控股有限公司(HKG:839)的資產負債表上確實有債務。但這筆債務對股東來説是一個擔憂嗎?
為什麼債務會帶來風險?
當一家企業無法輕鬆履行這些義務時,債務和其他債務就會變得有風險,無論是通過自由現金流還是通過以有吸引力的價格籌集資本。如果情況真的變得很糟糕,貸款人可以控制業務。然而,一種更常見(但仍令人痛苦)的情景是,它不得不以低價籌集新的股本,從而永久性地稀釋股東。當然,在企業中,債務可以是一個重要的工具,特別是資本密集型企業。當我們考慮一家公司的債務用途時,我們首先會把現金和債務放在一起看。

中國教育集團控股的債務是什麼?
如下所示,截至2022年2月底,中國教育集團控股有限公司的債務為88.8億加元,高於一年前的71.5億加元。單擊圖像瞭解更多詳細信息。然而,由於其現金儲備為50.1億加元,其淨債務較少,約為38.7億加元。
聯交所:839債轉股歷史2022年7月22日中國教育集團的資產負債表有多健康?
根據最新公佈的資產負債表,中國教育集團控股有限公司有8億加元的負債在12個月內到期,83.3億加元的負債在12個月後到期。為了抵消這些債務,該公司有50.1億加元的現金以及3.748億加元的應收賬款在12個月內到期。因此,它的負債總額比現金和近期應收賬款加起來還要多人民幣109億元。
與其141億元的市值相比,這一赤字是相當可觀的,因此這確實表明,股東應該密切關注中國教育集團的債務使用情況。這表明,如果該公司需要匆忙支撐其資產負債表,股東將被嚴重稀釋。
為了評估一家公司的債務相對於它的收益,我們計算它的淨債務除以它的利息、税項、折舊和攤銷前收益(EBITDA)和它的利息和税前收益(EBIT)除以它的利息支出(它的利息覆蓋)。這種方法的優點是,我們既考慮了債務的絕對數量(淨債務與EBITDA之比),也考慮了與債務相關的實際利息支出(及其利息覆蓋率)。
中國教育集團控股有限公司的淨債務與EBITDA之比約為1.8,這表明其只適度使用了債務。而其10.1倍的強勁利息覆蓋,讓我們更加舒心。我們注意到,中國教育集團控股有限公司去年的息税前利潤增長了27%,這應該會使其在未來更容易償還債務。當你分析債務時,資產負債表顯然是你關注的領域。但歸根結底,該業務未來的盈利能力將決定中國教育集團能否隨着時間的推移加強其資產負債表。所以,如果你關注未來,你可以看看這個免費顯示分析師利潤預測的報告。
最後,一家公司只能用冷硬現金償還債務,而不是會計利潤。因此,我們總是檢查EBIT中有多少轉化為自由現金流。過去三年,中國教育集團公佈的自由現金流相當於其息税前利潤的2.2%,這確實是相當低的。對我們來説,低現金轉換引發了一點偏執,那就是償還債務的能力。
我們的觀點
我們對中國教育集團控股有限公司難以將息税前利潤轉換為自由現金流感到不安,但我們也有積極的方面需要關注。換句話説,它的息税前利潤增長率和利息覆蓋率都是令人鼓舞的跡象。綜上所述,在我們看來,由於中國教育集團的債務,中國教育集團控股確實是一項有一定風險的投資。這不一定是一件壞事,因為槓桿可以提高股本回報率,但這是需要注意的。當你分析債務時,資產負債表顯然是你關注的領域。然而,並非所有投資風險都存在於資產負債表中--遠非如此。例如,我們發現中國教育集團控股的2個警告信號在這裏投資之前你應該意識到這一點。
