Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Hamilton Thorne Ltd. develops, manufactures, and sells precision instruments, laboratory equipment, consumables, software, and services for the assisted reproductive technologies (ART), research, and cell biology markets with a market cap of CA$346.28 million.
Operations: No specific revenue segments are reported for Hamilton Thorne Ltd.
Market Cap: CA$346.28M
Hamilton Thorne Ltd. reported third-quarter sales of US$19.38 million, up from US$15.66 million the previous year, but remains unprofitable with a net loss of US$1.18 million. The company's debt is well covered by operating cash flow and its short-term assets exceed both short and long-term liabilities, indicating solid liquidity management despite increasing losses over five years at a significant rate. Trading significantly below estimated fair value may attract interest; however, the lack of profitability and limited management experience could pose challenges in achieving projected earnings growth of 161.56% annually amidst industry competition.
