    Memo

    TERMO-REX SPÓŁKA AKCYJNA (TRR.WA). Latest full fiscal year: 2023; data up to 2023-12-31.

    Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 48.6 m PLN in 2023; YoY growth 8.5%; net margin 2.4%; ROE 4.3%.

    The estimated value range is 63.72–175.86 PLN per share (median of 1 methods, agreement: single method); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 110.62 PLN, the price of 0.54 PLN leaves a potential of 20,386.1% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of 99.5% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.

    Insufficient data for a verdict (indicators available: 5 of at least 6; score weight coverage: 37.5% of at least 60%).

    Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.

    What supports the thesis

    • Current ratio: 1.9x
    • P/E (TTM): 0.1x
    • The price is below the estimated value range

    What contradicts it

    • ROIC: 2.2%

    Not assessed (insufficient data or a ratio without meaning): FCF conversion, Revenue CAGR 3Y, EPS CAGR 3Y, Net debt / EBITDA, EV/EBITDA, FCF yield, Shareholder yield (distributions), Payout ratio (FCF).

    In brief

    Termo-Rex is a Polish industrial services group that combines industrial construction (welding and assembly) with trade in electrical installation and thermal insulation articles. In financial year 2023 the group returned to profit after a loss in 2022, as demand became more stable and pressures from earlier years eased. Revenue reached 48.592 mn PLN 1.

    SWOT

    Strengths

    • The group combines assembly and welding services with trade in technical articles, giving a diversified revenue base.
    • Bank debt is modest, and management considers external financing risk negligible.
    • The return to profit in 2023 shows an ability to recover after the difficult 2022 period.

    Weaknesses

    • Reliance on imports makes costs sensitive to exchange rates, with no hedging instruments in place.
    • Activity depends on investment in a few industrial sectors, especially petrochemicals, where projects can be suspended.
    • The net margin is modest, and earlier losses show vulnerability to demand shocks.

    Opportunities

    • Expansion into new markets, such as Belgium, could diversify revenue beyond Poland.
    • If industrial investment recovers, demand for assembly and welding services could grow.
    • Using the group's property and investment assets could bring additional income.

    Threats

    • Higher interest rates and tighter bank lending could weigh on industrial clients.
    • Exchange-rate volatility could raise purchase costs and pressure margins.
    • Geopolitical uncertainty and fragile supply chains could delay projects.

    Risks

    • Currency riskhigh

      The group does not use hedging instruments, and part of its revenue and purchases is in foreign currency. Adverse exchange-rate moves could reduce margins.

    • Concentration on a few industrial clientsmedium

      Activity depends on the investment plans of a limited number of sectors, and suspension of a major client's projects could affect revenue.

    • Cost of financingmedium

      High interest rates could slow client investment and raise the cost of the group's borrowing, although current debt is modest.

    • Dependence on importsmedium

      More than 45% of purchases came from imports or intra-community acquisitions, exposing the group to supply delays and variable costs.

    • Fluctuating resultslow

      The move from a loss in 2022 to a profit in 2023 shows that results can vary considerably from year to year.

    Investment thesis

    What would need to be true (bull case)

    • If the recovery in industrial investment continues, the group could benefit from more stable demand for assembly and welding services.
    • Low debt and liquidity considered adequate by management give the group flexibility during uncertain periods.
    • Diversification between services and technical articles trading could support revenue even when one activity slows.

    What would break the thesis

    • If exchange rates move unfavourably, import costs could rise faster than selling prices.
    • Dependence on a few industrial clients could make revenue sensitive to the suspension of large projects.
    • The 2023 profit is modest, and the 2022 loss shows that results can quickly return to negative territory.

    The business

    Termo-Rex SA is the parent company of a group active in Poland with two main activities: industrial construction, meaning welding, assembly and heat treatment of welded joints, and trade in electrical installation and thermal insulation articles 1. The subsidiary CKTiS SA, based in Stara Biała, is 84.185% owned and fully consolidated, with assembly and welding services as its business 1. The group focuses on the Polish market, and the report does not present geographic segment results 1.

    The cost and financing structure points to a company with modest bank debt. At 31 December 2023 the current account credit was used at 970 thousand PLN, and the group stated that management considers the risk of external financing negligible 1. Net profit attributable was 1.128 mn PLN, compared with a loss of 689 thousand PLN in 2022 1.

    On the asset side the group holds land, buildings and machinery, along with investment property including a fuel station leased to PKN Orlen SA 1. Trading activity was extended in 2022 to Belgium, which increased the share of euro-denominated revenue but also raised currency exposure 1.

    Segments

    Industrial construction

    The segment covers welding and assembly services, installation of equipment and heat treatment of joints, as well as construction and installation works for industrial clients, some of them in the petrochemical sector 1. The report notes that in 2022 investment and maintenance work in petrochemicals was suspended, an effect that eased in 2023 1.

    Trade in electrical installation and insulation articles

    The segment sells electrical installation and thermal insulation articles, many of them imported from the United Kingdom, the United States and China 1. In 2023 imports and intra-community acquisitions accounted for 45.7% of total purchase value, which makes the segment sensitive to exchange rates 1.

    Market context

    Termo-Rex operates in the Polish market for industrial services and technical materials distribution, where demand depends on the investment and maintenance activity of industrial clients. Euro-denominated revenue represented 22.7% of turnover in 2023, against 48.5% in 2022, reflecting a shift in the weight of the Belgian market after the 2022 expansion 1.

    The report describes a context marked by inflation, rising interest rates and tighter financing for clients, all considered factors affecting industry demand 1. Management says the outlook for 2024 remains uncertain, but that falling inflation and stabilising material availability create a more predictable base 1.

    Trends

    • Stabilisation of industrial activitytailwind

      The report notes that the impact of the pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine on operating activity eased in 2023, supporting the return to profit 1. If industrial investment stays at current levels, demand for assembly and welding services could remain stable.

    • Rising financing costsheadwind

      Higher interest rates and banks' tighter credit assessment were identified as risks for clients and for the group 1. Although the group's bank debt is modest, a high-rate environment could weigh on client demand.

    • Currency exposuremixed

      Revenue and purchases in foreign currencies, in particular GBP, USD and EUR, have increased exposure to exchange rates, and the company does not use hedging instruments 1. Currency moves could affect both acquisition costs and selling prices.

    • Lower debt and liquidity pressuretailwind

      Liquidity indicators remained at levels management considers satisfactory, and the report mentions a lower ratio of debt to equity 1. In the short term this financial base could support continued investment.

    Competitive position

    The group competes with other Polish industrial services and technical materials distribution companies, and the report's sources do not explicitly name competitors. The stated advantage is the combination of assembly and welding services with trade in electrical installation articles, which may reduce dependence on a single activity 1.

    Competition depends on the ability to win stable contracts with industrial clients and to manage import costs. The report shows that in 2023 a significant part of purchases was imported, which makes competitive pressure sensitive to exchange-rate developments 1.

    • Other Polish industrial services companies

      The report does not name direct competitors, so none are identified by name or ticker.

    • Electrical installation distributors in Poland

      Competition comes from local or regional technical materials traders, unidentified in the source.

    • Thermal insulation and technical ceramics suppliers

      The group sources from the United Kingdom, the United States and China, so it competes indirectly with international suppliers.

    • Petrochemical assembly contractors

      The report names the petrochemical sector as a main client area, so firms in this field compete for the same projects.
