▲(8.70% Upside)
The score is held back mainly by weak operating performance and persistent cash burn, despite a comparatively strong low-debt balance sheet. Technicals are supportive with the price above key moving averages and positive MACD, but momentum appears stretched (RSI > 70). Valuation is constrained by a negative P/E that reflects ongoing losses and no stated dividend yield.

How the Company Makes Money

Aminex plc Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Overall fundamentals are weak: the income statement shows sharp revenue decline and deep losses (income statement score 14), and cash flow reflects ongoing cash burn with negative operating/free cash flow in recent years (cash flow score 26). The main offset is a relatively strong, low-leverage balance sheet (balance sheet score 68) that provides flexibility but is at risk of erosion if losses persist.
Income Statement
14
Very Negative
Operating performance is weak and volatile. Revenue is small and declined sharply in 2024 versus 2023 (-25%), after modest growth in 2023. Profitability remains deeply negative: 2024 shows negative gross profit and very large losses at the operating and net level, materially worse than 2023. While losses narrowed versus the extreme 2021 result, the overall trajectory is still structurally unprofitable with inconsistent margins.
Balance Sheet
68
Positive
The balance sheet is a relative strength due to very low leverage. Debt is minimal across the period (near-zero debt-to-equity), and equity remains sizable versus total assets, providing financial flexibility. The main weakness is persistent losses, reflected in consistently negative returns on equity, which can erode the equity base over time if not reversed.
Cash Flow
26
Negative
Cash generation is pressured, with negative operating cash flow in 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2020, and negative free cash flow in most years; free cash flow also deteriorated in 2024 versus 2023. A notable positive is 2021, when operating and free cash flow turned positive, showing the business can generate cash in certain periods. However, the more recent pattern points to ongoing cash burn and reliance on funding or asset monetization if sustained.
