Anora Group Oyj (HLSE:ANORA)

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Anora Group Oyj is engaged in the production, import, marketing, distribution, and sale of alcoholic beverages across Finland, Europe, and international markets with a market cap of €184.08 million.

Operations: Anora Group Oyj generates revenue from three main segments: Wine (€324.3 million), Spirits (€230.6 million), and Industrial (€236.9 million).

Market Cap: €184.08M

Anora Group Oyj, trading at 66.7% below its estimated fair value, presents a compelling opportunity given its stable weekly volatility and lack of shareholder dilution over the past year. However, despite improvements in net income from a loss to €7.9 million in Q4 2024, the company remains unprofitable with negative return on equity and insufficient interest coverage by EBIT. The dividend yield of 7.07% is not well supported by earnings, and while debt levels have improved over time, operating cash flow does not adequately cover debt obligations. Earnings are forecasted to grow significantly at 65.97% annually.

Overview: Ihlas Holding A.S. operates in construction and real estate, media, manufacturing and trading, as well as healthcare and education sectors in Turkey and internationally, with a market cap of TRY4 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from its construction segment at TRY3.02 billion, followed by marketing at TRY2.78 billion and media at TRY1.62 billion.

Market Cap: TRY4B

Ihlas Holding, with a market cap of TRY4 billion, has demonstrated significant financial restructuring by reducing its debt-to-equity ratio from 35.6% to 3.2% over five years, while maintaining more cash than total debt. The company recently turned profitable and boasts a low price-to-earnings ratio of 2.1x compared to the TR market average of 15.1x, suggesting potential undervaluation. Despite high non-cash earnings and stable weekly volatility at 15%, profitability remains challenged by negative operating cash flow and low return on equity at 8.6%.
