Karmarts (SET:KAMART)

Simply Wall St Growth Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Karmarts Public Company Limited operates in Thailand, focusing on the manufacturing, packaging, import, and distribution of cosmetics and consumer products with a market cap of THB11.87 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue segments comprise THB2.96 billion from the manufacture and distribution of consumer products, THB26.15 million from warehouse rental, and a loss of THB4.01 million from investment properties and distribution of by-products and agriculture.

Insider Ownership: 25.5%

Earnings Growth Forecast: 17% p.a.

Karmarts offers potential as a growth company with high insider ownership, trading at a favorable value with a P/E ratio of 16.9x compared to the industry average of 23x. Despite slower-than-desired revenue growth at 18.7% annually, it outpaces the TH market's 5.7%. Earnings are expected to increase by 17% per year, surpassing market expectations. However, its dividend yield of 4.02% is not well covered by free cash flows, signaling caution for income-focused investors.

Siam Cement (SET:SCC)

Simply Wall St Growth Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: The Siam Cement Public Company Limited, with a market cap of THB174.60 billion, operates in the cement and building materials, chemicals, and packaging sectors both in Thailand and internationally.

Operations: Siam Cement's revenue is primarily derived from its chemicals segment at THB210.30 billion, followed by the SCG Smart Living Business and SCG Distribution and Retail Business at THB140.17 billion, packaging (SCGP) at THB132.78 billion, SCG Cement and Green Solutions Business at THB81.89 billion, and SCG Decor (SCGD) contributing THB25.56 billion.

Insider Ownership: 33.6%

Earnings Growth Forecast: 32.2% p.a.

Siam Cement's insider ownership aligns with its growth potential, as earnings are forecast to rise significantly at 32.23% annually, outpacing the Thai market. However, revenue growth is modest at 6% per year and profit margins have declined from last year. Recent issuance of THB 15 billion in debentures reflects strategic financial management amidst a challenging environment where interest payments aren't well covered by earnings. The dividend yield remains unsustainable given current profit levels.

UTour Group (SZSE:002707)

Simply Wall St Growth Rating: ★★★★★★

Overview: UTour Group Co., Ltd. operates in the outbound tourism wholesale and retail sector both in China and internationally, with a market cap of CN¥7.49 billion.

Operations: The company generates revenue primarily through its outbound tourism wholesale and retail operations in China and abroad.

Insider Ownership: 24.1%

Earnings Growth Forecast: 32.8% p.a.

UTour Group's insider ownership supports its growth trajectory, with earnings expected to grow significantly at 32.8% per year, surpassing the Chinese market average. Revenue is forecast to increase by 31.5% annually, indicating robust expansion potential. The stock trades well below estimated fair value, suggesting possible undervaluation. Despite no recent insider trading activity in the past three months, UTour became profitable this year and held a shareholder meeting in February for director elections.
