Ajinomoto – a new hope from its relocation
Ajinomoto bottom line over the past 12 years was boosted by 2 land gains that resulted in about the same contribution to the past 12 years' earnings as the operating profits. The land gains are one-off items and moving forward we have to rely just on the operations.
Ajinomoto is a mature company with revenue growing at 6.1 % CAGR over the past 12 years. So you may think that there is not much hope for better results.
But the company relocated to a new plant in 2022 and its operating results since then provide a good picture of its future. It is also financially sound. On such a basis I found that there is more than a 30% margin of safety making it an investment opportunity.
