SIMONA (DB:SIM0)

Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: SIMONA Aktiengesellschaft is a company that specializes in the development, manufacturing, and marketing of semi-finished thermoplastics, pipes, fittings, and profiles on a global scale with a market capitalization of €294 million.

Operations: SIMONA generates revenue primarily from its semi-finished plastics, pipes, fittings, and finished parts segment, totaling €578.85 million. The company's financial performance is influenced by various cost factors associated with production and distribution within this segment.

With earnings growing 9.6% annually over the past five years, SIMONA appears to be a promising player in its sector. The company's debt-to-equity ratio has risen from 9.6% to 17.9%, yet it maintains a satisfactory net debt-to-equity ratio of 0.8%. Trading at an attractive valuation, it's currently priced at 73.7% below estimated fair value, suggesting potential upside for investors seeking value opportunities in Europe. While its interest payments are comfortably covered by EBIT at a multiple of 22 times, the share price has shown significant volatility recently, which could present both risks and opportunities for investors.
