Gulf Resources Financial Ratios 2024-2008 | GURE

Brief overview of Gulf Resources's valuation multiples

This overview follows the five latest available observations from 2014 through 2022.

The current valuation set is P/E 2.58x (median 2.75x), EV/EBITDA 7.67x (median 7.67x), P/S 0.99x (median 0.82x). The multiple basket looks neutral against its history, differing from median levels by roughly 0%.

Earnings yield calculated as 1/P/E is about 38.7%, showing current profit per unit of share price.

The latest available business-quality ratios are ROE -41%, ROA -34.8%, ROCE -14%. Returns below zero mean resources are not producing positive profit. Recovery in operating results is the main reference point.

A longer cycle, from 92.3 days to 129.4 days, indicates slower release of cash from operations.

What the ratios show

Gulf Resources's market valuation is near its own historical norm, while quality ratios provide no extreme signal.

Multiples are an important financial analysis tool for the company Gulf Resources, allowing investors and analysts to quickly assess the company’s value and investment attractiveness based on the ratio of market indicators to the company’s financial performance. Essentially, multiples express how the market values the company relative to its earnings, revenue, equity, or other key metrics.

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
    Financial multiples serve as an important tool for investors, creditors, and company management in making investment, credit, and managerial decisions.
  • 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.
