. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and compelling growth in net income. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that the stock has had a generally disappointing performance in the past year.
Highlights from the ratings report include:
- CMCM's very impressive revenue growth greatly exceeded the industry average of 17.2%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues leaped by 103.5%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
- CMCM's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.00 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.49, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- When compared to other companies in the Software industry and the overall market, CHEETAH MOBILE INC -ADR's return on equity is below that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- The gross profit margin for CHEETAH MOBILE INC -ADR is currently very high, coming in at 76.90%. Regardless of CMCM's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, CMCM's net profit margin of 2.85% is significantly lower than the industry average.
- This stock's share value has moved by only 6.98% over the past year. Looking ahead, we do not see anything in this company's numbers that would change the one-year trend. It was down over the last twelve months; and it could be down again in the next twelve. Naturally, a bull or bear market could sway the movement of this stock.
