Rating:59Neutral
Price Target:
¥9,973.00
▲(20.51% Upside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:07/18/26
The score is held back primarily by weak and inconsistent cash flow (including two years of negative free cash flow) and bearish technical signals (below key moving averages with negative MACD). Offsetting factors include improved FY2026 profitability and balance-sheet leverage, plus an attractive valuation with a low P/E and a ~3.2% dividend yield.
Positive Factors
Integrated resource-to-recycling model
DOWA's vertically integrated model captures value from waste acceptance, metal recovery and downstream sales, enabling revenue from both service fees and recovered materials. This structural integration improves margin capture, customer stickiness and resilience versus standalone recyclers.
Negative Factors
Weak cash generation / negative FCF
Two consecutive years of deeply negative free cash flow show profits have not translated into cash, likely from working-capital swings or heavy investment. Persistent negative FCF undermines self-funding for capex, dividends and debt reduction, raising medium-term financing risk.
