Dubai National Insurance & Reinsurance (P.S.C.) (DFM:DNIR)

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

Operations: The company's revenue segments include Investments generating AED50.77 million and Underwriting with a loss of AED204.65 million.

Market Cap: AED434.28M

Dubai National Insurance & Reinsurance (P.S.C.) presents a mixed picture for investors interested in smaller-cap stocks. The company has maintained profitability, reporting AED6.67 million in net income for Q3 2024, but faces challenges with declining earnings over the past five years. Despite this, it remains debt-free and its short-term assets significantly exceed both short- and long-term liabilities, indicating solid financial stability. However, the board's relatively low average tenure suggests potential governance risks. With a Price-to-Earnings ratio of 11.4x below the market average, valuation appears attractive though growth prospects remain uncertain amid recent profit margin declines.
