HeadHunter Group PLC Financial Ratios 2022-2016 | HHRU

Brief overview of HeadHunter Group PLC's market valuation

The review covers five available annual periods spanning 2017 to 2022.

The latest available valuation ratios are P/E 12.76x (median 32.01x), EV/EBITDA 5.3x (median 5.65x), P/S 2.58x (median 5.95x). Multiples are on average 56.7% below their own medians. Shares look cheaper than their recent historical valuation.

The 1/P/E calculation produces a 7.8% earnings yield. It does not capture future growth or capital structure.

Current measures of operating quality are ROE 53.9%, ROA 15.3%, ROCE 65.6%. Current resource returns are convincing and help explain a higher market valuation.

PEG of 0.61x shows valuation is not outpacing embedded growth. The conclusion depends on earnings durability.

Current liquidity is 0.73x, with a quick ratio of 0.73x. Near-term coverage looks tight.

At 1.12x debt/equity, interest expense is covered 8.7x. Leverage needs monitoring but is not critical.

The cash conversion cycle shortened from -158.9 days to -269.8 days, or 110.9 days. Working capital returns faster.

Conclusion

HeadHunter Group PLC combines strong fundamental efficiency with valuation below its own five-year norm. The discount merits attention but should be checked against sector and financial risks.

Multiples are an important financial analysis tool for the company HeadHunter Group PLC, 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.
