As a company performs well, its stock price may increase, allowing investors to benefit from price appreciation.

How important is Neogen's Liquidity

Neogen financial leverage refers to using borrowed capital as a funding source to finance Neogen ongoing operations. It is usually used to expand the firm's asset base and generate returns on borrowed capital. Neogen financial leverage is typically calculated by taking the company's all interest-bearing debt and dividing it by total capital. So the higher the debt-to-capital ratio (i.e., financial leverage), the riskier the company. Financial leverage can amplify the potential profits to Neogen's owners, but it also increases the potential losses and risk of financial distress, including bankruptcy, if the firm cannot cover its debt costs. The degree of Neogen's financial leverage can be measured in several ways, including by ratios such as the debt-to-equity ratio (total debt / total equity), equity multiplier (total assets / total equity), or the debt ratio (total debt / total assets).

Will Neogen dip impact its fundamentals?

Skewness is down to 0.81. It may indicate a possible volatility dip. Neogen exhibits very low volatility with skewness of 0.81 and kurtosis of 1.87. However, we advise investors to further study Neogen technical indicators to ensure that all market info is available and is reliable. Understanding different market volatility trends often help investors to time the market. Properly using volatility indicators enable traders to measure Neogen's stock risk against market volatility during both bullish and bearish trends. The higher level of volatility that comes with bear markets can directly impact Neogen's stock price while adding stress to investors as they watch their shares' value plummet. This usually forces investors to rebalance their portfolios by buying different stocks as prices fall.

The Current Takeaway on Neogen Investment

Although other entities in the diagnostics & research industry are either recovering or due for a correction, Neogen may not be performing as strong as the other in terms of long-term growth potentials. To conclude, as of the 19th of December 2022, we believe that Neogen is currently overvalued with average chance of bankruptcy in the next two years. Our concluding 90 days 'Buy-vs-Sell' recommendation on the firm is Cautious Hold.
