Additional Considerations Required While Assessing Farm Price Holdings Berhad's (KLSE:FPHB) Strong Earnings
Unsurprisingly, Farm Price Holdings Berhad's (KLSE:FPHB) stock price was strong on the back of its healthy earnings report. However, our analysis suggests that shareholders may be missing some factors that indicate the earnings result was not as good as it looked. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. In high finance, the key ratio used to measure how well a company converts reported profits into free cash flow (FCF) is the accrual ratio (from cashflow). To get the accrual ratio we first subtract FCF from profit for a period, and then divide that number by the average operating assets for the period. You could think of the accrual ratio from cashflow as the 'non-FCF profit ratio'. That means a negative accrual ratio is a good thing, because it shows that the company is bringing in more free cash flow than its profit would suggest. While having an accrual ratio above zero is of little concern, we do think it's worth noting when a company has a relatively high accrual ratio. Notably, there is some academic evidence that suggests that a high accrual ratio is a bad sign for near-term profits, generally speaking. Farm Price Holdings Berhad has an accrual ratio of 0.31 for the year to March 2025. Therefore, we know that it's free cashflow was significantly lower than its statutory profit, raising questions about how useful that profit figure really is. In the last twelve months it actually had negative free cash flow, with an outflow of RM2.1m despite its profit of RM10.2m, mentioned above. It's worth noting that Farm Price Holdings Berhad generated positive FCF of RM4.5m a year ago, so at least they've done it in the past. That might leave you wondering what analysts are forecasting in terms of future profitability. Luckily, you can click here to see an interactive graph depicting future profitability, based on their estimates. Farm Price Holdings Berhad's accrual ratio for the last twelve months signifies cash conversion is less than ideal, which is a negative when it comes to our view of its earnings. Because of this, we think that it may be that Farm Price Holdings Berhad's statutory profits are better than its underlying earnings power. Sadly, its EPS was down over the last twelve months. The goal of this article has been to assess how well we can rely on the statutory earnings to reflect the company's potential, but there is plenty more to consider. In light of this, if you'd like to do more analysis on the company, it's vital to be informed of the risks involved. Case in point: We've spotted 2 warning signs for Farm Price Holdings Berhad you should be mindful of and 1 of them is significant. This note has only looked at a single factor that sheds light on the nature of Farm Price Holdings Berhad's profit. But there is always more to discover if you are capable of focussing your mind on minutiae. For example, many people consider a high return on equity as an indication of favorable business economics, while others like to 'follow the money' and search out stocks that insiders are buying. So you may wish to see this free collection of companies boasting high return on equity, or this list of stocks with high insider ownership. Have feedback on this article?

Solid Earnings May Not Tell The Whole Story For TWL Holdings Berhad (KLSE:TWL)
The recent earnings posted by TWL Holdings Berhad (KLSE:TWL) were solid, but the stock didn't move as much as we expected. However the statutory profit number doesn't tell the whole story, and we have found some factors which might be of concern to shareholders. Check out our latest analysis for TWL Holdings Berhad Many investors haven't heard of the accrual ratio from cashflow, but it is actually a useful measure of how well a company's profit is backed up by free cash flow (FCF) during a given period. In plain english, this ratio subtracts FCF from net profit, and divides that number by the company's average operating assets over that period. This ratio tells us how much of a company's profit is not backed by free cashflow. As a result, a negative accrual ratio is a positive for the company, and a positive accrual ratio is a negative. That is not intended to imply we should worry about a positive accrual ratio, but it's worth noting where the accrual ratio is rather high. That's because some academic studies have suggested that high accruals ratios tend to lead to lower profit or less profit growth. Over the twelve months to December 2024, TWL Holdings Berhad recorded an accrual ratio of 0.25. We can therefore deduce that its free cash flow fell well short of covering its statutory profit. Over the last year it actually had negative free cash flow of RM95m, in contrast to the aforementioned profit of RM10.2m. We also note that TWL Holdings Berhad's free cash flow was actually negative last year as well, so we could understand if shareholders were bothered by its outflow of RM95m. Unfortunately for shareholders, the company has also been issuing new shares, diluting their share of future earnings. Note: we always recommend investors check balance sheet strength. Click here to be taken to our balance sheet analysis of TWL Holdings Berhad. To understand the value of a company's earnings growth, it is imperative to consider any dilution of shareholders' interests. As it happens, TWL Holdings Berhad issued 14% more new shares over the last year. As a result, its net income is now split between a greater number of shares. Per share metrics like EPS help us understand how much actual shareholders are benefitting from the company's profits, while the net income level gives us a better view of the company's absolute size. Check out TWL Holdings Berhad's historical EPS growth by clicking on this link. TWL Holdings Berhad was losing money three years ago. On the bright side, in the last twelve months it grew profit by 43%. On the other hand, earnings per share are only up 9.3% over the same period. So you can see that the dilution has had a bit of an impact on shareholders. In the long term, earnings per share growth should beget share price growth. So it will certainly be a positive for shareholders if TWL Holdings Berhad can grow EPS persistently. But on the other hand, we'd be far less excited to learn profit (but not EPS) was improving. For that reason, you could say that EPS is more important that net income in the long run, assuming the goal is to assess whether a company's share price might grow. In conclusion, TWL Holdings Berhad has weak cashflow relative to earnings, which indicates lower quality earnings, and the dilution means its earnings per share growth is weaker than its profit growth. Considering all this we'd argue TWL Holdings Berhad's profits probably give an overly generous impression of its sustainable level of profitability. So while earnings quality is important, it's equally important to consider the risks facing TWL Holdings Berhad at this point in time. Case in point: We've spotted 4 warning signs for TWL Holdings Berhad you should be mindful of and 2 of these bad boys are a bit concerning. In this article we've looked at a number of factors that can impair the utility of profit numbers, and we've come away cautious. But there is always more to discover if you are capable of focussing your mind on minutiae. For example, many people consider a high return on equity as an indication of favorable business economics, while others like to 'follow the money' and search out stocks that insiders are buying. While it might take a little research on your behalf, you may find this free collection of companies boasting high return on equity, or this list of stocks with significant insider holdings to be useful.
