CLM
CyclicalsValuation Breakdown
Cyclical companies (chemicals, oil & gas, basic resources) have earnings that swing dramatically with commodity prices and economic cycles. Valuing them on a single year's earnings is misleading: they look cheap at peaks and expensive at troughs. This model uses 7-year median EBITDA ("mid-cycle" earnings) and a 7-year median EV/EBITDA multiple to estimate what the firm is worth at a normal point in the cycle.

Beneish M-Score · 2025
The forensic assessment of CLM indicates elevated risk due to significant earnings quality concerns and potential manipulation signals. The Beneish M-Score of -0.1525 suggests that while manipulation is not highly likely, the high DSRI and low earnings quality score raise red flags.
- DSRI of 2.0813 indicates potential issues with inventory management, suggesting overstatement of revenue.
- Earnings Quality Score of 28.7/100 reflects poor cash conversion (0.0/100), indicating reliance on accruals rather than cash flow.
- DEPI of 2.5268 suggests aggressive revenue recognition practices that may not align with actual sales.
- Receivables quality score of 100.0/100 indicates strong management of receivables, which could imply effective collection processes.
The majority ownership by Tập đoàn Công nghiệp Than - Khoáng sản Việt Nam (55.4%) suggests potential influence over financial reporting practices, which could pose risks related to transparency and accountability.
