March 20, 2023We Think Mondi (LON:MNDI) Can Stay On Top Of Its Debt
Warren Buffett famously said, 'Volatility is far from synonymous with risk.' So it seems the smart money knows that debt - which is usually involved in bankruptcies - is a very important factor, when you assess how risky a company is. As with many other companies Mondi plc (LON:MNDI) makes use of debt. But is this debt a concern to shareholders?
When Is Debt Dangerous?
Debt is a tool to help businesses grow, but if a business is incapable of paying off its lenders, then it exists at their mercy. Part and parcel of capitalism is the process of 'creative destruction' where failed businesses are mercilessly liquidated by their bankers. However, a more common (but still painful) scenario is that it has to raise new equity capital at a low price, thus permanently diluting shareholders. Of course, plenty of companies use debt to fund growth, without any negative consequences. When we examine debt levels, we first consider both cash and debt levels, together.
See our latest analysis for Mondi
What Is Mondi's Net Debt?
As you can see below, Mondi had €1.94b of debt, at December 2022, which is about the same as the year before. You can click the chart for greater detail. However, it also had €1.07b in cash, and so its net debt is €873.0m.

A Look At Mondi's LiabilitiesAccording to the last reported balance sheet, Mondi had liabilities of €2.12b due within 12 months, and liabilities of €2.47b due beyond 12 months. On the other hand, it had cash of €1.07b and €1.46b worth of receivables due within a year. So its liabilities total €2.07b more than the combination of its cash and short-term receivables.
While this might seem like a lot, it is not so bad since Mondi has a market capitalization of €7.01b, and so it could probably strengthen its balance sheet by raising capital if it needed to. But it's clear that we should definitely closely examine whether it can manage its debt without dilution.
We use two main ratios to inform us about debt levels relative to earnings. The first is net debt divided by earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), while the second is how many times its earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) covers its interest expense (or its interest cover, for short). Thus we consider debt relative to earnings both with and without depreciation and amortization expenses.
Mondi's net debt is only 0.48 times its EBITDA. And its EBIT easily covers its interest expense, being 10.9 times the size. So you could argue it is no more threatened by its debt than an elephant is by a mouse. In addition to that, we're happy to report that Mondi has boosted its EBIT by 35%, thus reducing the spectre of future debt repayments. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. But it is future earnings, more than anything, that will determine Mondi's ability to maintain a healthy balance sheet going forward. So if you're focused on the future you can check out this free report showing analyst profit forecasts.
Finally, a business needs free cash flow to pay off debt; accounting profits just don't cut it. So the logical step is to look at the proportion of that EBIT that is matched by actual free cash flow. During the last three years, Mondi produced sturdy free cash flow equating to 60% of its EBIT, about what we'd expect. This cold hard cash means it can reduce its debt when it wants to.

May 01, 2023Are Mondi plc (LON:MNDI) Investors Paying Above The Intrinsic Value?
Key Insights
The projected fair value for Mondi is UK£9.44 based on 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity

Analyst price target for MNDI is €15.31, which is 62% above our fair value estimate
Today we will run through one way of estimating the intrinsic value of Mondi plc (LON:MNDI) by taking the expected future cash flows and discounting them to today's value. We will use the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model on this occasion. It may sound complicated, but actually it is quite simple!
The Method
We're using the 2-stage growth model, which simply means we take in account two stages of company's growth. In the initial period the company may have a higher growth rate and the second stage is usually assumed to have a stable growth rate. In the first stage we need to estimate the cash flows to the business over the next ten years. Where possible we use analyst estimates, but when these aren't available we extrapolate the previous free cash flow (FCF) from the last estimate or reported value. We assume companies with shrinking free cash flow will slow their rate of shrinkage, and that companies with growing free cash flow will see their growth rate slow, over this period. We do this to reflect that growth tends to slow more in the early years than it does in later years.
A DCF is all about the idea that a dollar in the future is less valuable than a dollar today, and so the sum of these future cash flows is then discounted to today's value:

If we want to find a stock that could multiply over the long term, what are the underlying trends we should look for? Amongst other things, we'll want to see two things; firstly, a growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and secondly, an expansion in the company's amount of capital employed. Ultimately, this demonstrates that it's a business that is reinvesting profits at increasing rates of return.
Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE)
For those who don't know, ROCE is a measure of a company's yearly pre-tax profit (its return), relative to the capital employed in the business. Analysts use this formula to calculate it for Mondi:
Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities)
0.14 = €1.3b ÷ (€11b - €2.1b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2022).
Thus, Mondi has an ROCE of 14%. In absolute terms, that's a pretty normal return, and it's somewhat close to the Forestry industry average of 12%.
Catatan
The Bottom LineThe main thing to remember is that Mondi has proven its ability to continually reinvest at respectable rates of return. However, despite the favorable fundamentals, the stock has fallen 27% over the last five years, so there might be an opportunity here for astute investors. For that reason, savvy investors might want to look further into this company in case it's a prime investment.
Mondi does have some risks, we noticed 3 warning signs (and 1 which shouldn't be ignored) we think you should know about.
Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 18.7% per year for the next 3 years
