Bremworth (NZSE:BRW)

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

Overview: Bremworth Limited manufactures and sells carpets and rugs across New Zealand, Australia, the United States, Canada, and other international markets with a market cap of NZ$39.08 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from its Carpets Sales and Manufacturing segment, which generated NZ$57.08 million, supplemented by NZ$25.55 million from Elco Direct Wool.

Market Cap: NZ$39.08M

Bremworth Limited, with a market cap of NZ$39.08 million, generates revenue primarily from its Carpets Sales and Manufacturing segment (NZ$57.08M) and Elco Direct Wool (NZ$25.55M). The company is debt-free, which eliminates concerns over interest payments and indicates improved financial stability compared to five years ago when it had a debt-to-equity ratio of 38.4%. Despite stable weekly volatility over the past year, Bremworth's share price has been highly volatile recently. Its Price-To-Earnings ratio of 8.4x suggests better value than the broader NZ market average of 20.1x, although recent negative earnings growth (-56.8%) poses challenges for comparison within its industry.
