Operations: The company's revenue is derived entirely from its operations in Saudi Arabia, totaling SAR36.67 million.

Market Cap: SAR1.13B

Fitaihi Holding Group, with a market cap of SAR1.13 billion, operates debt-free and has seen its earnings become profitable this year despite a historical decline of 16.2% annually over the past five years. The company's short-term assets (SAR118.6M) comfortably cover both short-term (SAR23.2M) and long-term liabilities (SAR3.5M). While its Return on Equity is low at 2.3%, Fitaihi's high-quality earnings and experienced board offer stability in the volatile penny stock landscape, although challenges remain in achieving substantial growth compared to industry standards.

Oriental Enterprise Holdings (SEHK:18)

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

Overview: Oriental Enterprise Holdings Limited is an investment holding company involved in newspaper publication in Hong Kong and Australia, with a market cap of HK$995.14 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from the publication of newspapers, generating HK$564.18 million, supplemented by its money lending business which contributes HK$45.45 million.

Market Cap: HK$995.14M

Oriental Enterprise Holdings Limited, with a market cap of HK$995.14 million, faces challenges as its negative operating cash flow leaves debt uncovered and its dividend yield of 14.46% is unsustainable by earnings or free cash flows. Despite these concerns, the company has high-quality past earnings and strong asset coverage for both short-term (HK$1.2 billion) and long-term liabilities (HK$83.3 million). Recent dividends include a final and special dividend of HKD 3 cents per share each, approved at the August AGM. However, recent negative earnings growth (-54.9%) contrasts sharply with previous five-year annual growth rates of 14.6%.

SEHK:18 Debt to Equity History and Analysis as at Nov 2024

Novolog (Pharm-Up 1966) (TASE:NVLG)

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

Overview: Novolog (Pharm-Up 1966) Ltd operates in the healthcare services sector in Israel with a market cap of ₪801.83 million.

Operations: The company generates revenue through its Logistics Division (₪1.44 billion), Health Services Division (₪220.76 million), and Digital Division (₪26.23 million).

Market Cap: ₪801.83M

Novolog (Pharm-Up 1966) Ltd, with a market cap of ₪801.83 million, shows financial resilience despite being unprofitable, as its debt is well covered by operating cash flow and interest payments are well managed. The company has more cash than total debt and its short-term assets exceed long-term liabilities. However, the dividend yield of 3.74% is not supported by earnings or free cash flows. Recent earnings reports indicate an increase in sales to ₪866.02 million for the first half of 2024, with net income rising significantly to ₪25.26 million from a year ago's modest figure of ₪0.792 million.
