Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from its casino operations, with A$13.86 million generated in Vietnam and A$25.67 million in Cambodia.
Market Cap: A$39.49M
Donaco International Limited has shown significant progress by becoming profitable over the past year, with earnings growing at an impressive rate. The company's return on equity stands high at 25%, and its debt is well-covered by operating cash flow. Despite this, short-term assets of A$31.2 million do not fully cover its short-term liabilities of A$40.3 million, indicating some liquidity challenges. Additionally, a large one-off gain of A$23.8 million has impacted recent financial results, which may affect the perceived quality of earnings. The company trades significantly below estimated fair value, suggesting potential undervaluation in the market.
