ALJ Regional Holdings Financial Ratios 2021-2011 | ALJJ

Brief overview of ALJ Regional Holdings's valuation multiples

Ratios are assessed across five available annual reports in the 2013–2017 interval.

Key multiples at the end of the period are P/E 7.08x (median 7.08x), EV/EBITDA 9.02x (median 8.48x), P/S 0.17x (median 0.13x). Multiples are on average 30.3% above their own medians. A substantial share of positive expectations may already be priced in.

The 1/P/E calculation produces a 14.1% earnings yield. It does not capture future growth or capital structure.

Returns on assets and capital are represented by ROE -36.9%, ROA -2.2%, ROCE 72.4%. Returns below zero mean resources are not producing positive profit. Recovery in operating results is the main reference point.

Price, earnings and growth produce a PEG of 0.2x. A value below one indicates moderate pricing relative to expected growth.

The cash return period is stable at 44.6 days initially and 42.7 days at the end.

Valuation takeaway

ALJ Regional Holdings's profile looks stretched: price anticipates improvement that current quality ratios do not yet confirm.

Advantages of Using Financial Ratios
  • Simplified Data Analysis
    Financial ratios transform large volumes of accounting data into compact and easily interpretable indicators, significantly simplifying the assessment of the company’s condition.
  • Comparability Between Companies
    Multiples standardize financial metrics, enabling objective comparison of companies of different sizes, industries, and market capitalizations.
  • Identification of Trends and Issues
    Regular analysis of ratios helps track the dynamics of financial health, identify strengths and weaknesses of the business, as well as potential risks.
  • Decision Support

  • Accelerated Assessment of Investment Attractiveness
    Ratios allow quick determination of key performance, liquidity, and financial stability indicators, facilitating prompt evaluation of companies’ attractiveness for investments.

Using multiples enables comparison between companies, even if they differ in size or industry, as they standardize financial data into ratios convenient for analysis. This is especially useful for evaluating companies where direct analysis of financial statements may be complex or require in-depth knowledge.
