K. Wah International Holdings (SEHK:173)

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

Overview: K. Wah International Holdings Limited is an investment holding company involved in property development and investment in Hong Kong and Mainland China, with a market capitalization of approximately HK$6.94 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from property development in Mainland China (HK$5.91 billion), followed by property investment (HK$623.61 million) and property development in Hong Kong (HK$410.53 million).

Market Cap: HK$6.94B

K. Wah International Holdings, recently added to the S&P Global BMI Index, presents a mixed picture for investors interested in penny stocks. While its short-term assets significantly exceed both short and long-term liabilities, indicating strong liquidity (HK$28.8 billion vs HK$10.6 billion and HK$12.5 billion respectively), the company faces challenges with declining earnings and profit margins over recent years. Despite trading below estimated fair value and having satisfactory debt levels with well-covered interest payments, its low return on equity (0.7%) and unstable dividend history may concern potential investors seeking consistent growth or income stability in the real estate sector.

Its financial health is underscored by short-term assets of CN¥1.7 billion exceeding both short and long-term liabilities, ensuring strong liquidity.
