Mount Everest Gold Group (SEHK:1815)

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

Overview: Mount Everest Gold Group Company Limited is an investment holding company that designs and sells gold, silver, colored gemstones, gem-set, and other jewellery products in the People’s Republic of China with a market cap of approximately HK$2.31 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily generated from its New Jewellery Retail segment, amounting to CN¥157.57 million.

Market Cap: HK$2.31B

Mount Everest Gold Group has recently turned profitable, with a projected net profit of RMB 70-80 million for the first half of 2025, reversing a previous loss. This improvement is largely driven by increased sales and higher margins in its New Jewellery Retail segment due to rising gold prices and low-cost inventory. The company's balance sheet is strong, with more cash than debt and short-term assets exceeding liabilities. However, interest coverage remains low at 1.5 times EBIT, and management's average tenure is only 1.3 years, suggesting limited experience within the team despite stable share price volatility over the past year.

Operations: Plan B Media generates its revenue from advertising media, contributing THB2.22 billion, and engagement marketing, which accounts for THB9.79 billion.

Wee Hur Holdings (SGX:E3B)

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

Overview: Wee Hur Holdings Ltd. is an investment holding company involved in general building and civil engineering construction in Singapore and Australia, with a market cap of SGD680.24 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from building construction (SGD137.48 million), workers dormitory operations (SGD84.26 million), property development in Singapore (SGD76.46 million), fund management (SGD43.72 million), corporate activities (SGD3.55 million), PBSA operations (SGD2.12 million), and property development in Australia (SGD0.93 million).

Market Cap: SGD680.24M

Wee Hur Holdings has demonstrated a mixed financial performance recently. The company reported sales of SGD155.97 million for the first half of 2025, showing growth from the previous year, yet net income declined to SGD38.66 million due to a significant one-off loss impacting earnings quality. Despite this, Wee Hur's debt management is strong with cash exceeding total debt and interest payments well covered by EBIT. While profit margins have decreased from last year, the firm's seasoned management team and board provide stability. Recent business expansion in Australia through a new subsidiary could enhance future revenue streams in fund management.
