What this means

Kolon Industries clears its cost of capital, but the record is mixed across the five tests. Real value creation, just not yet consistent.

Description

Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

Kolon Industries, Inc. is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group.

The price is attractive. You pay 13.0× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically attractive zone.

The trajectory is solid and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 8/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value. Analysts lean positive.

What to watch: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
