YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical (HKG:1558) Use Of Debt Could Be Considered Risky
YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical (HKG:1558) Use Of Debt Could Be Considered Risky
David Iben put it well when he said, 'Volatility is not a risk we care about. What we care about is avoiding the permanent loss of capital.' When we think about how risky a company is, we always like to look at its use of debt, since debt overload can lead to ruin. We can see that YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (HKG:1558) does use debt in its business. But the real question is whether this debt is making the company risky.
When Is Debt A Problem?
Debt assists a business until the business has trouble paying it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. Part and parcel of capitalism is the process of 'creative destruction' where failed businesses are mercilessly liquidated by their bankers. While that is not too common, we often do see indebted companies permanently diluting shareholders because lenders force them to raise capital at a distressed price. Of course, plenty of companies use debt to fund growth, without any negative consequences. When we think about a company's use of debt, we first look at cash and debt together.

What Is YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical's Debt?
The image below, which you can click on for greater detail, shows that at June 2022 YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical had debt of CN¥3.56b, up from CN¥3.09b in one year. However, it does have CN¥859.1m in cash offsetting this, leading to net debt of about CN¥2.70b.
SEHK:1558 Debt to Equity History September 2nd 2022How Strong Is YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical's Balance Sheet?
The latest balance sheet data shows that YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical had liabilities of CN¥3.97b due within a year, and liabilities of CN¥852.1m falling due after that. Offsetting this, it had CN¥859.1m in cash and CN¥765.3m in receivables that were due within 12 months. So its liabilities total CN¥3.20b more than the combination of its cash and short-term receivables.
This deficit is considerable relative to its market capitalization of CN¥3.85b, so it does suggest shareholders should keep an eye on YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical's 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).
While we wouldn't worry about YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical's net debt to EBITDA ratio of 4.6, we think its super-low interest cover of 1.1 times is a sign of high leverage. It seems that the business incurs large depreciation and amortisation charges, so maybe its debt load is heavier than it would first appear, since EBITDA is arguably a generous measure of earnings. So shareholders should probably be aware that interest expenses appear to have really impacted the business lately. One redeeming factor for YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical is that it turned last year's EBIT loss into a gain of CN¥282m, over the last twelve months. When analysing debt levels, the balance sheet is the obvious place to start. But ultimately the future profitability of the business will decide if YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical can strengthen its balance sheet over time. So if you want to see what the professionals think, you might find this free report on analyst profit forecasts to be interesting.
Finally, a business needs free cash flow to pay off debt; accounting profits just don't cut it. So it's worth checking how much of the earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) is backed by free cash flow. During the last year, YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical burned a lot of cash. While investors are no doubt expecting a reversal of that situation in due course, it clearly does mean its use of debt is more risky.
Our View
On the face of it, YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical's interest cover left us tentative about the stock, and its conversion of EBIT to free cash flow was no more enticing than the one empty restaurant on the busiest night of the year. But at least its EBIT growth rate is not so bad. Overall, it seems to us that YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical's balance sheet is really quite a risk to the business. For this reason we're pretty cautious about the stock, and we think shareholders should keep a close eye on its liquidity. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. But ultimately, every company can contain risks that exist outside of the balance sheet. For example - YiChang HEC ChangJiang Pharmaceutical has 1 warning sign we think you should be aware of.
When all is said and done, sometimes its easier to focus on companies that don't even need debt. Readers can access a list of growth stocks with zero net debt 100% free, right now.

大衞·伊本説得很好,波動性不是我們關心的風險,我們關心的是避免資本的永久性損失。當我們考慮一家公司的風險有多大時,我們總是喜歡看它對債務的使用,因為債務過重可能導致破產。我們可以看到宜昌HEC長江藥業有限公司。(HKG:1558)確實在其業務中使用債務。但真正的問題是,這筆債務是否讓該公司面臨風險。
什麼時候債務是個問題?
債務幫助企業,直到企業難以償還債務,無論是用新資本還是用自由現金流。資本主義的一部分是“創造性破壞”的過程,破產的企業被銀行家無情地清算。儘管這並不常見,但我們確實經常看到負債累累的公司永久性地稀釋股東的權益,因為貸款人迫使他們以令人沮喪的價格籌集資金。當然,許多公司利用債務為增長提供資金,沒有任何負面後果。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。

宜昌HEC長江藥業的債務是什麼?
下圖顯示,截至2022年6月,宜昌HEC長江藥業的債務為35.6億加元,高於一年內的30.9億加元。然而,它確實有8.591億加元的現金抵消了這一點,導致淨債務約為27億加元。
聯交所:1558債轉股歷史2022年9月2日宜昌HEC長江藥業的資產負債表有多強?
最新的資產負債表數據顯示,宜昌HEC長江藥業有39.7億元的負債在一年內到期,8.521億元的負債在一年內到期。作為抵消,它有8.591億加元的現金和7.653億加元的應收賬款在12個月內到期。因此,它的負債總額比現金和短期應收賬款的總和多32億元。
與其38.5億元的市值相比,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宜昌HEC長江藥業的債務使用情況。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)。
雖然我們不會擔心宜昌HEC長江藥業的淨債務與EBITDA之比為4.6,但我們認為其1.1倍的超低利息覆蓋是高槓杆的跡象。這項業務似乎產生了鉅額折舊和攤銷費用,因此它的債務負擔可能比最初看起來更重,因為EBITDA可以説是一項慷慨的收益衡量指標。因此,股東們可能應該意識到,利息支出最近似乎確實對業務產生了影響。宜昌HEC長江藥業的一個可取之處是,它在過去12個月裏將去年的息税前虧損變成了2.82億元的收益。在分析債務水平時,資產負債表顯然是一個起點。但最終,該業務未來的盈利能力將決定宜昌HEC長江藥業能否隨着時間的推移加強其資產負債表。因此,如果你想看看專業人士的想法,你可能會發現這份關於分析師利潤預測的免費報告很有趣。
最後,企業需要自由現金流來償還債務;會計利潤只是不能削減這一點。因此,有必要檢查一下息税前收益(EBIT)中有多少是由自由現金流支持的。在過去的一年裏,宜昌HEC長江藥業燒掉了大量現金。儘管投資者無疑預計這種情況會在適當的時候逆轉,但這顯然意味着它使用債務的風險更大。
我們的觀點
從表面上看,宜昌HEC長江藥業的利息回補讓我們對股票持懷疑態度,其將息税前利潤轉換為自由現金流並不比一年中最繁忙的夜晚的一家空蕩蕩的餐廳更具誘惑力。但至少它的息税前利潤增長率並不是那麼糟糕。總體而言,在我們看來,宜昌HEC長江藥業的資產負債表確實對該業務構成了相當大的風險。出於這個原因,我們對該股相當謹慎,我們認為股東應該密切關注其流動性。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,每家公司都可能包含存在於資產負債表之外的風險。例如-宜昌HEC長江藥業1個警告標誌我們認為你應該意識到。
