Is Reliance Steel & Aluminum (NYSE:RS) A Risky Investment?
Is Reliance Steel & Aluminum (NYSE:RS) A Risky Investment?
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. As with many other companies Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co. (NYSE:RS) makes use of debt. But the real question is whether this debt is making the company risky.
What Risk Does Debt Bring?
Debt is a tool to help businesses grow, but if a business is incapable of paying off its lenders, then it exists at their mercy. 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. Having said that, the most common situation is where a company manages its debt reasonably well - and to its own advantage. The first step when considering a company's debt levels is to consider its cash and debt together.

What Is Reliance Steel & Aluminum's Debt?
The chart below, which you can click on for greater detail, shows that Reliance Steel & Aluminum had US$1.65b in debt in June 2022; about the same as the year before. On the flip side, it has US$504.5m in cash leading to net debt of about US$1.14b.
NYSE:RS Debt to Equity History September 26th 2022How Strong Is Reliance Steel & Aluminum's Balance Sheet?
The latest balance sheet data shows that Reliance Steel & Aluminum had liabilities of US$1.67b due within a year, and liabilities of US$1.87b falling due after that. Offsetting these obligations, it had cash of US$504.5m as well as receivables valued at US$2.06b due within 12 months. So it has liabilities totalling US$974.0m more than its cash and near-term receivables, combined.
Given Reliance Steel & Aluminum has a humongous market capitalization of US$10.3b, it's hard to believe these liabilities pose much threat. But there are sufficient liabilities that we would certainly recommend shareholders continue to monitor the balance sheet, going forward.
We use two main ratios to inform us about debt levels relative to earnings. The first is net debt divided by earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), while the second is how many times its earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) covers its interest expense (or its interest cover, for short). 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).
Reliance Steel & Aluminum has a low net debt to EBITDA ratio of only 0.40. And its EBIT easily covers its interest expense, being 42.2 times the size. So you could argue it is no more threatened by its debt than an elephant is by a mouse. Even more impressive was the fact that Reliance Steel & Aluminum grew its EBIT by 125% over twelve months. That boost will make it even easier to pay down debt going forward. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. But it is future earnings, more than anything, that will determine Reliance Steel & Aluminum's ability to maintain a healthy balance sheet going forward. So if you want to see what the professionals think, you might find this free report on analyst profit forecasts to be interesting.
Finally, while the tax-man may adore accounting profits, lenders only accept cold hard cash. So it's worth checking how much of that EBIT is backed by free cash flow. During the last three years, Reliance Steel & Aluminum produced sturdy free cash flow equating to 60% of its EBIT, about what we'd expect. This cold hard cash means it can reduce its debt when it wants to.
Our View
The good news is that Reliance Steel & Aluminum's demonstrated ability to cover its interest expense with its EBIT delights us like a fluffy puppy does a toddler. And the good news does not stop there, as its EBIT growth rate also supports that impression! Overall, we don't think Reliance Steel & Aluminum is taking any bad risks, as its debt load seems modest. So the balance sheet looks pretty healthy, to us. When analysing debt levels, the balance sheet is the obvious place to start. But ultimately, every company can contain risks that exist outside of the balance sheet. To that end, you should learn about the 2 warning signs we've spotted with Reliance Steel & Aluminum (including 1 which is concerning) .
At the end of the day, it's often better to focus on companies that are free from net debt. You can access our special list of such companies (all with a track record of profit growth). It's free.

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。與許多其他公司一樣信實鋼鐵鋁業有限公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:RS)利用債務。但真正的問題是,這筆債務是否讓該公司面臨風險。
債務會帶來什麼風險?
債務是幫助企業發展的一種工具,但如果一家企業無法償還貸款人的債務,那麼它就只能聽從貸款人的擺佈。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。話雖如此,最常見的情況是一家公司對債務管理得相當好--並對自己有利。在考慮一家公司的債務水平時,第一步是同時考慮其現金和債務。

信實鋼鐵鋁業的債務是什麼?
下面的圖表顯示,2022年6月,信實鋼鐵鋁業的債務為16.5億美元,與前一年大致相同。點擊查看更多詳細信息。另一方面,它擁有5.045億美元的現金,導致淨債務約為11.4億美元。
紐約證券交易所:RS債轉股歷史2022年9月26日信實鋼鐵的資產負債表有多強?
最新的資產負債表數據顯示,信實鋼鐵鋁業有16.7億美元的負債在一年內到期,18.7億美元的負債在一年內到期。為了抵消這些債務,它有5.045億美元的現金以及價值20.6億美元的應收賬款在12個月內到期。因此,它的負債總額比現金和近期應收賬款的總和高出9.74億美元。
鑑於信實鋼鐵鋁業擁有103億美元的龐大市值,很難相信這些債務會構成太大威脅。但有足夠的負債,我們肯定會建議股東繼續監控未來的資產負債表。
我們使用兩個主要比率來告知我們債務相對於收益的水平。第一個是淨債務除以利息、税項、折舊和攤銷前收益(EBITDA),第二個是其息税前收益(EBIT)覆蓋其利息支出(或簡稱利息覆蓋)的多少倍。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)。
信實鋼鐵鋁業的淨債務與EBITDA之比較低,僅為0.40。而且它的息税前利潤輕鬆覆蓋了利息支出,是其規模的42.2倍。因此,你可以辯稱,它不會受到債務的威脅,就像大象受到老鼠的威脅一樣。更令人印象深刻的是,信實鋼鐵鋁業在12個月內息税前利潤增長了125%。這一提振將使未來償還債務變得更加容易。當你分析債務時,資產負債表顯然是你關注的領域。但最重要的是,未來的收益將決定信實鋼鐵鋁業未來保持健康資產負債表的能力。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,儘管税務人員可能喜歡會計利潤,但貸款人只接受冷硬現金。因此,有必要檢查這筆息税前利潤中有多少是由自由現金流支持的。在過去的三年裏,信實鋼鐵鋁業產生了相當於息税前利潤60%的強勁自由現金流,這與我們預期的差不多。這種冷酷的現金意味着,它可以在想要的時候減少債務。
我們的觀點
好消息是,信實鋼鐵鋁業證明有能力通過息税前利潤來支付利息支出,這讓我們感到高興,就像一隻毛茸茸的小狗對待蹣跚學步的孩子一樣。好消息不止於此,因為它的息税前利潤增長率也支持了這一印象!總體而言,我們認為信實鋼鐵並未承擔任何不良風險,因為該公司的債務負擔似乎不大。因此,在我們看來,資產負債表看起來相當健康。在分析債務水平時,資產負債表顯然是一個起點。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。為此,您應該瞭解2個警告標誌我們已經發現了信實鋼鐵鋁業(包括1家與之相關的公司)。
歸根結底,關注那些沒有淨債務的公司往往更好。你可以訪問我們的這類公司的特別名單(都有利潤增長的記錄)。這是免費的。
