MarketsMOJO Upgrades Ras Resorts & Apart Hotels to 'Hold' Rating Based on Technical Indicators

Ras Resorts & Apart Hotels, a microcap company in the hotel, resort, and restaurant industry, has recently received a 'Hold' rating from MarketsMOJO on September 13, 2024. This upgrade is based on various technical indicators that show a bullish trend for the stock.
One of the key factors contributing to this upgrade is the stock's attractive valuation with a ROCE of 3.8 and an Enterprise value to Capital Employed ratio of 1. This indicates that the stock is trading at a discount compared to its historical valuations. Additionally, the company's profits have risen by 36% in the past year, while the stock has generated a return of 13.32%. The PEG ratio, which measures the stock's valuation relative to its growth, is also at a low of 0.1.

However, there are some concerns regarding the company's long-term fundamentals. The average ROCE over the last 5 years is 2.48%, indicating weak long-term fundamental strength. The company's net sales and operating profit have also shown poor growth rates of 6.83% and 3.71%, respectively. Furthermore, the company's ability to service its debt is weak with a low EBIT to Interest ratio of 0.64.

In terms of market performance, Ras Resorts & Apart Hotels has underperformed in the last year with a return of 13.32%, compared to the market (BSE 500) return of 35.91%. This could be a cause for concern for investors.

It is worth noting that the majority shareholders of the company are promoters, which could provide some stability and confidence in the stock. However, it is important to consider the company's weak long-term fundamentals and underperformance in the market before making any investment decisions.

Overall, while the technical indicators show a bullish trend for Ras Resorts & Apart Hotels, the company's weak long-term fundamentals and underperformance in the market suggest a 'Hold' rating for now. Investors should carefully evaluate all factors before making any investment decisions.
