Flawless balance sheet and undervalued

TRT's ability to maintain an adequate level of cash to meet upcoming liabilities is a good sign for its financial health. This suggests prudent control over cash and cost by management, which is a crucial insight into the health of the company. TRT seems to have put its debt to good use, generating operating cash levels of 1.04x total debt in the most recent year. This is also a good indication as to whether debt is properly covered by the company’s cash flows. TRT's share price is trading at below its true value, meaning that the market sentiment for the stock is currently bearish. Investors have the opportunity to buy into the stock to reap capital gains, if TRT's projected earnings trajectory does follow analyst consensus growth, which determines my intrinsic value of the company. Compared to the rest of the semiconductor industry, TRT is also trading below its peers, relative to earnings generated. This supports the theory that TRT is potentially underpriced.
