Is Legend Holdings (HKG:3396) A Risky Investment?
Is Legend Holdings (HKG:3396) A Risky Investment?
Some say volatility, rather than debt, is the best way to think about risk as an investor, but Warren Buffett famously said that 'Volatility is far from synonymous with risk.' 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. Importantly, Legend Holdings Corporation (HKG:3396) does carry debt. But the more important question is: how much risk is that debt creating?
Why Does Debt Bring Risk?
Debt assists a business until the business has trouble paying it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. In the worst case scenario, a company can go bankrupt if it cannot pay its creditors. However, a more frequent (but still costly) occurrence is where a company must issue shares at bargain-basement prices, permanently diluting shareholders, just to shore up its balance sheet. 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 Legend Holdings's Debt?
As you can see below, Legend Holdings had CN¥161.8b of debt, at June 2022, which is about the same as the year before. You can click the chart for greater detail. However, it does have CN¥115.2b in cash offsetting this, leading to net debt of about CN¥46.6b.
SEHK:3396 Debt to Equity History November 8th 2022How Healthy Is Legend Holdings' Balance Sheet?
We can see from the most recent balance sheet that Legend Holdings had liabilities of CN¥456.3b falling due within a year, and liabilities of CN¥137.3b due beyond that. Offsetting these obligations, it had cash of CN¥115.2b as well as receivables valued at CN¥151.1b due within 12 months. So its liabilities total CN¥327.2b more than the combination of its cash and short-term receivables.
The deficiency here weighs heavily on the CN¥15.8b company itself, as if a child were struggling under the weight of an enormous back-pack full of books, his sports gear, and a trumpet. So we definitely think shareholders need to watch this one closely. After all, Legend Holdings would likely require a major re-capitalisation if it had to pay its creditors today.
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). Thus we consider debt relative to earnings both with and without depreciation and amortization expenses.
Legend Holdings has a low net debt to EBITDA ratio of only 1.5. And its EBIT easily covers its interest expense, being 21.0 times the size. So we're pretty relaxed about its super-conservative use of debt. In addition to that, we're happy to report that Legend Holdings has boosted its EBIT by 37%, thus reducing the spectre of future debt repayments. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. But ultimately the future profitability of the business will decide if Legend Holdings 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 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, Legend Holdings actually produced more free cash flow than EBIT. That sort of strong cash conversion gets us as excited as the crowd when the beat drops at a Daft Punk concert.
Our View
Legend Holdings's level of total liabilities was a real negative on this analysis, although the other factors we considered were considerably better. In particular, we are dazzled with its interest cover. When we consider all the elements mentioned above, it seems to us that Legend Holdings is managing its debt quite well. But a word of caution: we think debt levels are high enough to justify ongoing monitoring. There's no doubt that we learn most about debt from the balance sheet. However, not all investment risk resides within the balance sheet - far from it. For example - Legend Holdings has 4 warning signs we think you should be aware of.

一些人説,作為投資者,考慮風險的最佳方式是波動性,而不是債務,但巴菲特曾説過一句名言:波動性遠非風險的同義詞。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。重要的是聯想控股公司(HKG:3396)確實有債務。但更重要的問題是:這筆債務造成了多大的風險?
為什麼債務會帶來風險?
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。在最糟糕的情況下,如果一家公司無法償還債權人的債務,它可能會破產。然而,更常見(但代價仍然高昂)的情況是,一家公司必須以極低的價格發行股票,永久性地稀釋股東的股份,只是為了支撐其資產負債表。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。

聯想控股的債務是什麼?
正如你在下面看到的,聯想控股在2022年6月有1618億元的債務,與前一年大致相同。您可以單擊圖表查看更多詳細信息。然而,它確實有1152億加元的現金來抵消這一點,導致淨債務約為466億加元。
聯交所:3396債轉股歷史2022年11月8日聯想控股的資產負債表有多健康?
從最近的資產負債表可以看出,聯想控股有4563億元的負債在一年內到期,還有1373億元的負債在一年內到期。作為對這些債務的抵銷,該公司有1152億加元的現金以及價值1511億加元的應收賬款在12個月內到期。因此,其負債總額為人民幣3272億元,超過了現金和短期應收賬款的總和。
這一不足給這家158億元的CN公司本身帶來了沉重的負擔,就像一個孩子在一個裝滿書籍、運動裝備和小號的巨大揹包的重壓下掙扎一樣。因此,我們肯定認為股東需要密切關注這一事件。畢竟,如果聯想控股今天不得不償還債權人的債務,它很可能需要進行一次重大的資本重組。
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。因此,我們考慮債務相對於收益,包括折舊和攤銷費用。
聯想控股的淨債務與EBITDA之比較低,僅為1.5。而且它的息税前利潤很容易彌補利息支出,是其規模的21.0倍。因此,我們對它對債務的超級保守使用相當放鬆。除此之外,我們很高興地報告,聯想控股已將其息税前利潤提高了37%,從而降低了未來償還債務的幽靈。毫無疑問,我們從資產負債表中瞭解到的債務最多。但最終,該業務未來的盈利能力將決定聯想控股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,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。在過去三年中,聯想控股實際上產生了比息税前利潤更多的自由現金流。這種強勁的現金轉換讓我們像傻朋克演唱會上節奏下降時的觀眾一樣興奮。
我們的觀點
聯想控股的總負債水平在這一分析中是一個真正的負面因素,儘管我們考慮的其他因素要好得多。特別是,它的利息封面讓我們眼花繚亂。當我們考慮到上述所有因素時,在我們看來,聯想控股管理其債務相當不錯。但提醒一句:我們認為債務水平高到足以證明繼續進行監控是合理的。毫無疑問,我們從資產負債表中瞭解到的債務最多。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-聯想控股擁有4個警示標誌我們認為你應該意識到。
