Turbomecanica (BVB:TBM)

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

Overview: Turbomecanica SA is a company that manufactures and sells engines, mechanical assemblies, and equipment for aircraft and helicopters across Europe and Asia, with a market cap of RON150.36 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from the repairs of engines, which account for RON99.56 million, followed by the manufacturing of aircraft parts at RON31.43 million.

Market Cap: RON150.36M

Turbomecanica SA has demonstrated robust earnings growth, with a 45% increase over the past year, surpassing the Aerospace & Defense industry average. The company’s net profit margins improved to 11.5%, while its price-to-earnings ratio of 9.3x suggests it might be undervalued compared to the broader Romanian market. Turbomecanica's short-term assets comfortably cover both its short and long-term liabilities, indicating financial stability. However, while debt levels have risen slightly over five years, they remain well-managed with operating cash flow covering debt obligations effectively. Despite a stable dividend yield of 5.99%, it's not fully supported by free cash flows.
