クロノス ワールドワイドに関するコメント

The company's high debt and liabilities, negative EBIT, and declining revenue strain its balance sheet. Despite burning through US$42m of cash over the last year, its market capitalization suggests potential for raising cash.

Despite forecasted growth, Kronos Worldwide's P/S ratio is lower than most, suggesting investors may doubt the company's future growth. The market appears to be pricing in certain risks, possibly causing the depressed P/S ratio.

Kronos Worldwide's share price has suffered due to a significant drop in EPS over the last three years. However, its TSR has outperformed the share price return, reflecting the impact of dividend payments. The company's future growth is uncertain, urging potential investors to scrutinize its past growth trends and potential risks.

The company's financial situation is in question as its liabilities surpass its accessible funds by US$427.6m. The negative EBIT and declining revenue indicate a risky future for the company's stock.

Ongoing challenges might be causing Kronos Worldwide's declining share price and EPS. Risks lie in investing during down times. Despite this, the CEO's remuneration is modest compared to similar companies.
