Should You Be Holding Monadelphous Group Limited (ASX:MND)?

Building up an investment case requires looking at a stock holistically. Today I’ve chosen to put the spotlight on Monadelphous Group Limited (ASX:MND) due to its excellent fundamentals in more than one area. MND is a company with robust financial health as well as a excellent future outlook. Below is a brief commentary on these key aspects. For those interested in digger a bit deeper into my commentary, take a look at the report on Monadelphous Group here.

Flawless balance sheet with reasonable growth potential

MND is expected to churn out cash in the short term, with its operating cash flow predicted to expand by 95%. This underlies the notable 21% return on equity over the next few years leading up to 2022. MND’s strong financial health means that all of its upcoming liability payments are able to be met by its current cash and short-term investment holdings. This indicates that MND has sufficient cash flows and proper cash management in place, which is a key determinant of the company’s health. MND appears to have made good use of debt, producing operating cash levels of 1.7x total debt in the prior year. This is a strong indication that debt is reasonably met with cash generated.
