Hanwell 3rd Quarter Statement




Hanwell Holdings gearing is at 32.70% and debt S$86 million. I personally feel that it's on the high side and should be worrying. The company is currently trading at S$0.22, the NAV is S$0.48. The company is trading at a discount of 55%





Conclusion





Hanwell Holdings is an undervalued stock from my point of view, i believe it is worth more than current market price. Hope 4th Quarter results will be flying color and investors faith will be back.
