TK Group (Holdings) (SEHK:2283)

Simply Wall St Value Rating: ★★★★★★

Overview: TK Group (Holdings) Limited is an investment holding company involved in the manufacture, sale, subcontracting, fabrication, and modification of molds and plastic components with a market cap of HK$2.09 billion.

Operations: TK Group generates revenue primarily from mold fabrication and plastic components manufacturing, with the latter contributing HK$1.47 billion. The net profit margin is a key financial metric to consider when evaluating its profitability.

TK Group, a nimble player in the machinery sector, stands out with its debt-free status and high-quality earnings. Despite a modest 2.7% earnings growth over the past year, trailing the industry's 7.8%, it has significantly reduced its debt from a 52.2% debt-to-equity ratio five years ago to none today. The company is trading at 68.2% below our fair value estimate, suggesting potential undervaluation in the market's eyes. With forecasted earnings growth of 19.11% annually, TK Group seems poised for future expansion while maintaining robust financial health through positive free cash flow generation (A$376 million as of December).
