Did 8269’s recent performance beat its trend and industry?

8269 is loss-making, with the most recent trailing twelve-month earnings of -HK$54.4m (from 30 September 2018), which compared to last year has become less negative. However, the company’s loss seem to be contracting over the medium term, with the five-year earnings average of -HK$80.7m. Each year, for the past five years 8269 has seen an annual decline in revenue of -35%, on average. This adverse movement is a driver of the company’s inability to reach breakeven.

Given that Wealth Glory Holdings is not profitable, even if operating expenses (SG&A and one-year R&D) continues to fall at previous year’s rate of -16%, the company’s current cash level (HK$14m) will still be insufficient to cover its expenses in the upcoming year. This is not a great sign in terms of operations and cash management. Although this is a relatively simplistic calculation, and Wealth Glory Holdings may continue to reduce its costs further or raise debt capital instead of coming to equity markets, the analysis still helps us understand how sustainable the Wealth Glory Holdings’s operation is, and when things may have to change.

What does this mean?

While past data is useful, it doesn’t tell the whole story. With companies that are currently loss-making, it is always difficult to forecast what will happen in the future and when. The most insightful step is to examine company-specific issues Wealth Glory Holdings may be facing and whether management guidance has steadily been met in the past.
