The old fashion garment manufacturing industry seems to see some light recently when their financial performance is improving for the last couple of years.
Magni Prolexus
Revenue 43% 61%
EBIT 38% 78%
NI 40% 25%
Equity 18% 31%
Both Magni and Prolexus grow at very high rate both in terms of revenue and profit last year as shown in the table above. Prolexus appears to grow at a higher rate, mainly because of its smaller size.
Profitability Magni Prolexus
Gross Margin 14.5% 15.4%
EBIT margin 8.3% 7.5%
NI margin 6.4% 6.9%
ROE 17.1% 18.7%
ROIC 22.1% 34.0%
In terms of profitability, both companies did very well with ROIC and ROE well above 15%. Again Prolexus appear to do slightly better, mainly because of its tax credit benefits from losses some years before. What about their market valuations?
Market stats Magni Prolexus
No. of shares 108488 40000
Price 1.53 1.36
Mar Cap 165986.64 54400
MEV 87818 34471
EPS $0.322 $0.311
P/E 4.7 4.4
MEV/EBIT 1.9 2.0
DY 3.9% 2.3%
P/B 0.81 0.82
Again both companies present superb investing opportunities with their low market valuations; PE less than 5; P/B <1.0, and extremely low EV/Ebit <2. Both companies also have healthy balance sheet. So which would you prefer?
I personally prefer Magni because of its more stable return and longer history in operations. It has a higher market capitalization and has been giving higher and good dividend yield for a long time.

KC, what about looking 'deeper', such as the management and shareholders. I eyed this Magni since last year but never went it due to such 'deeper' concerns.
