What this means

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

Description

Analysis

Bargain bin

Netmarble Corporation is priced cheaply, and that invites the natural question of why, since the underlying business scores below average.

On valuation, the picture is attractive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 7.5×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around -7% a year, against analyst forecasts of 25%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is solid; the safety picture is sturdy. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value. Analysts lean positive.

Flags to be aware of: Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
