Strengths · Weaknesses

Strengths

  • High profitability in the core business (operating margin 47.25%)Above the median 24.2% of 40 Healthcare stocks
  • Low debt burden (debt ratio 9.86%)Below the median 54.9% of 36 Healthcare stocks
  • Ample short-term liquidity (current ratio 730.12%)

Weaknesses

No notable weaknesses among metrics with values

A summary of only the metrics that stand out as notably good or weak against general benchmarks. Where a comparison is possible, the position against the median of stocks in the same sector is shown too. The stock count on each sector line covers only stocks with that metric, so it differs by metric.

Metrics that moved the overall score

  • Revenue growth+4.3 pts
  • Interest coverage0.0 pts
  • Dividend yield0.0 pts
  • Payout ratio0.0 pts
  • Dividend streak-3.3 pts

Metric scores run up to 100, and the middle score is 50. If all nine metrics scored 50, the overall score would also be 50. Each bar is the contribution of one metric: how far its score sits from the 50 baseline, converted by that metric weight. Right means it raised the overall score, left means it lowered it.

Adding the nine contributions above to the baseline gives 74.0 points, and this stock's overall score is 73. The overall score is calculated from unrounded metric scores and then truncated, while the contributions here are rounded to one decimal place, so the two can differ by up to 1 point. Metrics that are not measured values still carry a contribution, because their scores did go into the overall score and hiding them would hide part of the basis of the grade.

Where this score sits

79.4% of the major stocks graded by Jupick score lower than this. Stocks in the same Grade A: 109.

  • S112.8%
  • AThis stock10927.3%
  • B19248.1%
  • C7117.8%
  • D164%

The Grade A band runs from 70 to 84 points, 15 points wide. This stock's 73 points sit 3 points above the lower boundary, and 12 points remain to 85, where Grade S starts.

Within the Healthcare sector alone, it ranks No. 8 of 40 stocks with an overall score, and the median overall score of the sector is 65.

Unlike metric values, the overall score uses the same baseline for every market and currency, so Korean and US stocks share one sample. The grade boundaries of 85, 70, 50 and 30 points apply equally to every stock, so the counts above are how the sample actually splits at those boundaries. Because one point can decide a grade, two stocks with different grades can be closer in score than two stocks with the same grade. The shares and ranks here describe only the major stocks Jupick covers, not every listed stock.

Earnings release

An estimate based on past release intervals, not a date announced by the company.

The day the company publishes quarterly or annual results. Only the release date is covered, not the results. Release times are not covered, so only the date (Korea time) is shown. After the release, metrics such as revenue growth are updated at the next data refresh. For information only. Not investment advice.

Hugel, Inc. (145020) has category scores of Earnings 89 · Financial health 83 · Dividends 36. These are the four major stocks graded in all three categories whose profiles come closest, and no category differs by more than 12 points.

The three scores are given by Jupick from public financial metrics, each out of 100. A similar profile means similar grading results only. It does not mean the share prices move alike.

Ratios as amounts

Base ₩10,000

Every ratio metric of this stock, restated on the same amount. If each line used a different base, the amounts could not be compared, so every line starts from ₩10,000.

For every ₩10,000 of revenue: operating profit ₩4,730.Operating margin 47.3%

  • For every ₩10,000 of equityyearly net profit ₩1,500ROE 15.0%

  • For ₩10,000 of book equitymarket value ₩23,000PBR 2.3x

The ₩10,000 base is an assumption chosen for easy reading, not this company's actual revenue or equity. The values multiply the ratios shown as they are and round to the nearest won, so they can differ from the source by a few won. Metrics that make no sense as amounts are left out: values that are not measured, values that cannot be confirmed as measured, and loss-making cases where the base amount does not hold.

Metrics that decide the grade

Overall 73 · Grade A

The overall score recalculated with just one of the nine metrics set to the middle score of 50. Only one metric changes at a time, and the other eight stay as they are.

5 of the nine metrics would each take the overall score out of Grade A if only that metric were 50.

The scores above add up this stock's metric scores again with one of them set to 50. They are not new grades, and this stock's grade stays at A. Metric scores and contributions are rounded to one decimal place, so a change within 1 point of a boundary is not reported as a grade change. Changing two or more metrics at once was not calculated.

Where the share price enters the grade

The grade above turns 9 metrics into scores and combines them. Counting how many of them use the share price shows whether the grade moves when the price moves.

For Korean stocks, Dividend yield is taken as stated in the disclosure, so it is not recalculated when the share price changes. What changes the grade is the next financial filing, not the share price.

Stocks with a value for each metric

The grade above uses 9 metrics. Each line shows how many major stocks have a value for that metric, so you can tell whether a blank is specific to this stock or common to most stocks.

Position in the market distribution

Korean stocks

Where the value of Hugel, Inc. sits when the Korean stocks on Jupick are lined up from the smallest value, ignoring sector. Left is smaller, right is larger, and the shaded part is the middle half.

The thin lower axis counts the position again within the same sector (Healthcare) only. 3 of the metrics with a lower axis sit in a different band from the whole market. On those lines, the bracket under the upper axis marks the middle half that the sector's stocks take on the market axis, and the short line inside is their middle.

  • PER15.4xOn the upper axis, the middle half of these 9 stocks sits between 50.9% and 70.1%, with the middle at 62.3%, so on the market axis the sector itself is in the upper middle.
  • PBR2.3xOn the upper axis, the middle half of these 16 stocks sits between 64.3% and 92.5%, with the middle at 78.1%.
  • ROE15.0%On the upper axis, the middle half of these 16 stocks sits between 7% and 82.1%, with the middle at 32.3%.

  • Dividend yield Could not be lined up this time

Won and dollar stocks have different metric levels, so they are counted in separate samples. This is only where a value sits in a line-up, not a sign of good or bad and not an investment judgement. Stocks without the metric, and loss-making stocks where PER or PBR does not hold, are left out of the sample. The remaining sample size is shown on each line. The sector axis is not drawn when the same-currency, same-sector sample has fewer than 8 stocks.
