Excellent balance sheet and good value
ALNSE's ability to maintain an adequate level of cash to meet upcoming liabilities is a good sign for its financial health. This implies that ALNSE manages its cash and cost levels well, which is an important determinant of the company’s health. ALNSE appears to have made good use of debt, producing operating cash levels of 0.2x total debt in the prior year. This is a strong indication that debt is reasonably met with cash generated. ALNSE's share price is trading at below its true value, meaning that the market sentiment for the stock is currently bearish. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts' consensus forecast growth be correct. Compared to the rest of the aerospace & defense industry, ALNSE is also trading below its peers of similar sizes in terms of their assets. This supports the theory that ALNSE is potentially underpriced.
