Does GEM (SZSE:002340) Have A Healthy Balance Sheet?
Does GEM (SZSE:002340) Have A Healthy Balance Sheet?
The external fund manager backed by Berkshire Hathaway's Charlie Munger, Li Lu, makes no bones about it when he says 'The biggest investment risk is not the volatility of prices, but whether you will suffer a permanent loss of capital.' So it might be obvious that you need to consider debt, when you think about how risky any given stock is, because too much debt can sink a company. We can see that GEM Co., Ltd. (SZSE:002340) does use debt in its business. But the more important question is: how much risk is that debt creating?
When Is Debt Dangerous?
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 usual (but still expensive) situation is where a company must dilute shareholders at a cheap share price simply to get debt under control. Of course, the upside of debt is that it often represents cheap capital, especially when it replaces dilution in a company with the ability to reinvest at high rates of return. The first thing to do when considering how much debt a business uses is to look at its cash and debt together.

What Is GEM's Debt?
You can click the graphic below for the historical numbers, but it shows that as of September 2022 GEM had CN¥14.8b of debt, an increase on CN¥11.1b, over one year. On the flip side, it has CN¥6.12b in cash leading to net debt of about CN¥8.73b.
SZSE:002340 Debt to Equity History November 1st 2022How Strong Is GEM's Balance Sheet?
We can see from the most recent balance sheet that GEM had liabilities of CN¥15.3b falling due within a year, and liabilities of CN¥8.09b due beyond that. Offsetting these obligations, it had cash of CN¥6.12b as well as receivables valued at CN¥5.69b due within 12 months. So its liabilities outweigh the sum of its cash and (near-term) receivables by CN¥11.6b.
This deficit isn't so bad because GEM is worth CN¥38.2b, and thus could probably raise enough capital to shore up its balance sheet, if the need arose. However, it is still worthwhile taking a close look at its ability to pay off debt.
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).
GEM has a debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.1, which signals significant debt, but is still pretty reasonable for most types of business. However, its interest coverage of 1k is very high, suggesting that the interest expense on the debt is currently quite low. One way GEM could vanquish its debt would be if it stops borrowing more but continues to grow EBIT at around 16%, as it did over the last year. When analysing debt levels, the balance sheet is the obvious place to start. But ultimately the future profitability of the business will decide if GEM 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.
But our final consideration is also important, because a company cannot pay debt with paper profits; it needs cold hard cash. So we clearly need to look at whether that EBIT is leading to corresponding free cash flow. During the last three years, GEM 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
Neither GEM's ability to convert EBIT to free cash flow nor its net debt to EBITDA gave us confidence in its ability to take on more debt. But its interest cover tells a very different story, and suggests some resilience. Looking at all the angles mentioned above, it does seem to us that GEM is a somewhat risky investment as a result of its debt. Not all risk is bad, as it can boost share price returns if it pays off, but this debt risk is worth keeping in mind. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. But ultimately, every company can contain risks that exist outside of the balance sheet. For example GEM has 3 warning signs (and 2 which are concerning) we think you should know about.
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.

由伯克希爾哈撒韋的理想汽車·芒格支持的外部基金經理Lu直言不諱地説,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。因此,當你考慮到任何一隻股票的風險有多大時,你需要考慮債務可能是顯而易見的,因為太多的債務可能會讓一家公司倒閉。我們可以看到寶石股份有限公司。(SZSE:002340)確實在其業務中使用債務。但更重要的問題是:這筆債務造成了多大的風險?
債務在什麼時候是危險的?
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(但仍然昂貴)的情況是,一家公司必須以低廉的股價稀釋股東的股份,才能控制債務。當然,債務的好處是,它往往代表着廉價資本,特別是當它用能夠以高回報率進行再投資的能力取代公司的稀釋時。當考慮一家企業使用了多少債務時,首先要做的是把現金和債務放在一起看。

創業板的債務是什麼?
你可以點擊下圖查看歷史數據,但它顯示,截至2022年9月,創業板的債務為人民幣148億元,比一年前增加了人民幣111億元。另一方面,它擁有61.2億加元的現金,導致淨債務約為87.3億加元。
深交所:002340債轉股歷史2022年11月1日創業板的資產負債表有多強勁?
從最近的資產負債表可以看出,創業板有153億元的負債在一年內到期,超過這一期限的負債有80.9億元。作為對這些債務的抵銷,該公司有61.2億加元的現金以及價值56.9億加元的應收賬款在12個月內到期。因此,它的負債超過了現金和(近期)應收賬款的總和116億元。
這一赤字並不是那麼糟糕,因為創業板價值人民幣382億元,因此如果需要的話,可能會籌集到足夠的資本來支撐其資產負債表。然而,仍值得密切關注其償債能力。
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)。
創業板的債務與EBITDA之比為3.1,這意味着大量債務,但對於大多數類型的業務來説,這仍然是相當合理的。然而,其1k的利息覆蓋率非常高,這表明債務的利息支出目前相當低。創業板消除債務的一種方法是停止更多借款,但息税前利潤繼續以16%左右的速度增長,就像去年一樣。在分析債務水平時,資產負債表顯然是一個起點。但最終,創業板未來的盈利能力將決定創業板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。
但我們的最後考慮也很重要,因為一家公司不能用賬面利潤來償還債務;它需要冷硬現金。因此,我們顯然需要看看息税前利潤是否會帶來相應的自由現金流。在過去的三年裏,創業板燒掉了大量現金。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
無論是創業板將息税前利潤轉換為自由現金流的能力,還是將淨債務轉換為息税折舊攤銷前利潤的能力,都沒有讓我們對其承擔更多債務的能力產生信心。但它的利息封面講述了一個非常不同的故事,並暗示了一些彈性。綜上所述,在我們看來,由於創業板的債務,它確實是一種有一定風險的投資。並不是所有的風險都是壞的,因為如果它得到了回報,它可以提高股價回報,但這種債務風險值得記住。毫無疑問,我們從資產負債表中瞭解到的債務最多。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,GEM有3個警示標誌(和2個相關的)我們認為你應該知道。
總而言之,有時候專注於甚至不需要債務的公司會更容易。讀者可以訪問淨債務為零的成長型股票列表100%免費,現在。
