Computed metrics
Integrity checks
Checks passed: 6 of 6
Signals
- Own-working-capital provision is deeply negative (−0.62): long-term assets (1,857,657k BYN) substantially exceed equity, and working capital is financed by borrowings — typical of capital-intensive livestock farming
- Profitability is declining: sales profitability from 15.2% to 12.6%, net profitability from 10.7% to 9.6% — cost pressure (cost of sales +13.1%, administrative +23.6%) outpaces revenue growth (+10.9%)
- Overdue loan and borrowing debt of 8,343k BYN; overdue payables grew from 20,275 to 31,463k BYN
- Short-term payables rose 62% (184,475 → 299,192), including +33% to suppliers and a 4.9× rise to other creditors (17,659 → 86,864)
- Receivables grew 27% (184,277 → 234,225), with the overdue portion at 107,527 (46% of the total)
- Operating cash flow is strong and growing: the operating-activity result was 201,081k BYN (+89%), with an OCF margin of 21.0% against 12.3% a year earlier
- Revenue rose 10.9% (863,151 → 957,194k BYN) — growth on real operating activity; FX revenue of 290,688 (30% — the export component)
- Current ratio 1.33 — above norm (1.25) despite a heavy balance sheet
- Net profit held at the prior-year level (91,787 against 92,349) despite rising costs
- Real equity is positive (+551,855k BYN); net assets of 1,404,171 are growing
- Debt load grows moderately (+11.3%) against a multiple rise in turnover; the main financing inflow is refinancing (1,788,031 received, 1,750,707 repaid)
Recommendation
A large agro-industrial combine (poultry) with a stable operating core: revenue grew 10.9%, operating cash flow is strong and growing (201,081k BYN, 21% margin), the current ratio is above norm, and net profit held at the prior-year level. The balance sheet reconciles on all six control checks. At the same time there are signs of strain typical of capital-intensive livestock farming: long-term assets substantially exceed equity (own-working-capital provision −0.62), profitability is declining under cost pressure (cost of sales and administrative expenses growing faster than revenue), and overdue payables increased. These factors do not reach a critical level — real equity is deeply positive, cash flow is strong, debt grows moderately — but they call for cost discipline and working-capital control. The combination of a viable business with growing cash flow and the fact that state ownership is not critical for commercial poultry farming makes privatization (with conditions preserving the line of business and agricultural use) a well-founded base case; should margin pressure intensify, the alternative is restructuring of the debt and cost base.
