Bioscience Animal Health (SET:BIS)

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

Overview: Bioscience Animal Health Public Company Limited operates in Thailand, focusing on the manufacture and distribution of pharmaceutical supplies, medical devices, and equipment, with a market cap of THB967.12 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is derived from several segments, including Nutrition (THB555.8 million), Diagnostic (THB562.7 million), Ingredient (THB516.5 million), Animal Health (THB451.2 million), and Complete Feed (THB376.3 million).

Market Cap: THB967.12M

Bioscience Animal Health reported a third-quarter revenue of THB570.85 million, slightly down from THB646.09 million the previous year, yet net income improved to THB17.21 million from THB16.5 million. The company benefits from strong financial positioning with short-term assets exceeding both long-term and short-term liabilities significantly, and its debt is well-covered by operating cash flow. Earnings growth has accelerated recently at 31.6%, outpacing industry averages, although return on equity remains low at 8.8%. Despite stable weekly volatility and high-quality earnings, dividend sustainability is questionable due to insufficient free cash flow coverage.

MDX (SET:MDX)

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

Overview: MDX Public Company Limited, along with its subsidiaries, focuses on investing in and developing real estate and infrastructure projects, with a market cap of THB1.54 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from real estate activities, including THB156.61 million from rental and utility services and THB46.93 million from land sales, as well as THB33.84 million from electricity generation and distribution.

Market Cap: THB1.54B

MDX Public Company Limited has shown significant earnings growth over the past year, with net income rising to THB106.76 million from THB33.22 million a year ago, despite a decline in five-year earnings growth. The company's financial health is supported by short-term assets of THB3.4 billion exceeding both short- and long-term liabilities, and more cash than total debt, although operating cash flow remains negative. The appointment of a new CEO in January 2025 may influence future strategic directions. MDX's price-to-earnings ratio is favorable compared to the market average, but return on equity is low at 5%.
