Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Gunkul Engineering Public Company Limited, along with its subsidiaries, generates and sells renewable energy across Thailand, Japan, and Vietnam, boasting a market cap of THB15.91 billion.
Operations: The company primarily earns revenue via construction services (THB3.03 billion), electricity generation and sales (THB3.03 billion), and manufacturing equipment for electrical systems (THB2.34 billion).
Gunkul’s market cap of THB15.91 billion reflects a notable earnings growth of 46.8% over the previous year, surpassing industry norms. However, it grapples with high debt levels and short-term assets that do not sufficiently cover long-term liabilities. The launch of a holding company in the Philippines aims to extend its renewable energy reach internationally. While dividends have been announced (THB 0.04 per share), their consistency has been inconsistent. Gunkul’s debt is effectively managed by operating cash flow, and EBIT is sufficient for interest payments, indicating prudent financial management during its expansion.
