▲(7.97% Upside)
The score is primarily supported by low financial risk (debt-free balance sheet) and strong cash generation, but is meaningfully constrained by the sharp deterioration in profitability and returns. Technicals are moderately positive with price above key moving averages, while valuation is a clear weak spot due to the negative P/E and lack of dividend yield data.

How the Company Makes Money
ALiNK Internet, Inc. Financial Statement Overview
Summary
Strong financial resilience from a debt-free, highly capitalized balance sheet and solid cash conversion (operating cash flow consistently above net income; improved free cash flow in 2025). The main drag is sharply weaker and more volatile profitability, with significant margin and ROE deterioration versus prior years.Income Statement
Revenue returned to growth in 2025 (up 5.6% year over year), but the longer trend is choppy, including a material decline in 2024. Profitability has weakened sharply: net margin fell to ~6.4% in 2025 from ~16.8% in 2024 and ~20–32% in 2022–2023, and gross margin has compressed meaningfully versus prior years. The result is a company that remains profitable, but with noticeably higher earnings volatility and reduced margin cushion versus its own history.54
Neutral
Balance Sheet
The balance sheet is very conservative with zero debt across all periods provided and a large equity base (equity of ~¥1.66B on ~¥1.83B assets in 2025), which lowers financial risk and provides flexibility. Returns on equity, however, have trended down materially (about 3.4% in 2025 vs ~6.4% in 2024 and ~12%+ in 2021–2022), indicating weaker efficiency in generating profits from shareholders’ capital despite the strong capitalization.86
Very Positive
Cash Flow
Cash generation is solid and high-quality: operating cash flow has exceeded net income in each year shown (about 1.6x in 2025), and free cash flow closely tracks reported earnings (near 1.0x in 2025). Free cash flow improved strongly in 2025 (~¥254M vs ~¥131M in 2024), but the multi-year pattern is uneven with notable swings in prior periods, which adds some volatility risk despite strong conversion.78
