Market Cap: €341.85M

Cairo Communication S.p.A. presents a mixed picture for penny stock investors. The company boasts a strong financial position, with cash exceeding total debt and operating cash flow well covering its debt obligations. Its board is experienced, and the company trades at a good value compared to peers. However, recent earnings growth has slowed to 1.1%, below its five-year average of 8.5%. Despite stable net profit margins and reduced debt levels over time, short-term assets fall short of covering long-term liabilities significantly (€18M vs €433.7M). Recent earnings reports show slight declines in sales and revenue year-over-year but stable net income figures.
