Maya Gold and Silver Inc (CVE:MYA): What Does It Mean For Your Portfolio?

Publié le 06 février 2018

TSXV:MYA Income Statement Feb 6th 18

Can MYA’s asset-composition point to a higher beta?

During times of economic downturn, low demand may cause companies to readjust production of their goods and services. It is more difficult for companies to lower their cost, if the majority of these costs are generated by fixed assets. Therefore, this is a type of risk which is associated with higher beta. I examine MYA’s ratio of fixed assets to total assets to see whether the company is highly exposed to the risk of this type of constraint. With a fixed-assets-to-total-assets ratio of greater than 30%, MYA appears to be a company that invests a large amount of capital in assets that are hard to scale down on short-notice. As a result, this aspect of MYA indicates a higher beta than a similar size company with a lower portion of fixed assets on their balance sheet. This outcome contradicts MYA’s current beta value which indicates a below-average volatility.

What this means for you:

You could benefit from lower risk during times of economic decline by holding onto MYA. Take into account your portfolio sensitivity to the market before you invest in the stock, as well as where we are in the current economic cycle. Depending on the composition of your portfolio, MYA may be a valuable stock to hold onto in order to cushion the impact of a downturn.
