Linedata Services (ENXTPA:LIN)
Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Linedata Services S.A. is a company that specializes in developing, publishing, and distributing financial software across Southern Europe, Northern Europe, North America, and Asia with a market capitalization of €400.75 million.
Operations: Linedata Services generates revenue primarily from two segments: Asset Management (€122.12 million) and Lending & Leasing (€63.39 million).
Linedata, a niche player in the software industry, has shown robust earnings growth of 22% over the past year, outpacing the industry's 11.8%. Despite a high net debt to equity ratio of 40.3%, its interest payments are well covered by EBIT at 9.7 times coverage. The company is trading at an attractive valuation, being 11.9% below its estimated fair value and has reduced its debt to equity ratio from 82.5% to 77.9% over five years. Recent implementation of Linedata Global Hedge for Bank of Shanghai highlights its capability in delivering efficiency and precision for complex financial needs.
Cohen Development Gas & Oil (TASE:CDEV)
Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★★
Overview: Cohen Development Gas & Oil Ltd. is involved in the exploration, development, production, and marketing of natural gas, condensate, and oil across Israel, Cyprus, and Morocco with a market cap of ₪973.55 million.
Operations: Cohen Development Gas & Oil generates revenue primarily from the production and management of oil and gas exploration, amounting to $28.94 million.
Cohen Development Gas & Oil, a smaller player in the energy sector, presents an intriguing mix of financial stability and challenges. The company is debt-free, which removes concerns about interest coverage and suggests prudent financial management. Despite this, its earnings growth over the past year was negative at -3.2%, contrasting sharply with the industry average of 12.8%. However, it reported a net income increase to US$7.96 million for Q3 2024 from US$6.37 million in Q3 2023, showcasing some resilience. Trading just below fair value estimates by 0.9%, it seems poised for potential value recognition if growth can be reignited.

Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Asseco Business Solutions S.A. designs and develops enterprise software solutions in Poland and internationally, with a market capitalization of PLN2.03 billion.
Operations: The ERP segment generates revenue of PLN388.19 million for Asseco Business Solutions S.A. The company's market capitalization is PLN2.03 billion.
Asseco Business Solutions, a smaller player in the software sector, trades at 16.8% below its estimated fair value, suggesting potential undervaluation. The company's net debt to equity ratio stands at a satisfactory 3.9%, though it has risen from 1.2% over five years, indicating increased leverage. Earnings have grown by an average of 7.8% annually during this period, showcasing robust performance despite not outpacing the industry's recent growth rate of 15.2%. With high-quality earnings and positive free cash flow consistently reported, Asseco seems well-positioned for steady revenue growth projected at 7.7% per year moving forward.
