Lucror Analytics is a leading credit and ESG research specialist and a provider of technology solutions for differentiated fixed income strategies. Our roots are in bottom-up fundamental credit analysis with a specialization in high yield corporate credits from Europe, Asia and Latin America. We are one of few research specialists integrating ESG considerations with fundamental credit research through a dedicated ESG platform. Our ESG assessment covers five key criteria: Disclosure, E,S, & G Pillars, Controversies, ESG Impact on Credit and ESG Momentum.

Recognizing the importance and value-add of Factor Investing in fixed income, Lucror developed the Smart Quant Navigator (SQN), an intuitive platform that helps clients devise and implement factor-based strategies ranging from pure quant to active fundamental, with integrated ESG.

Our company has been at the forefront of developments in the fixed income markets, identifying opportunities and consistently delivering new products and value-adding solutions to clients. Lucror has close relationships with the largest and most reputable asset managers, family offices, hedge funds, investment and wealth managers globally.

Asia HY Monthly - March 2023 - Lucror Analytics

Seazen Group's FY 2022 results were in line with expectations, with sustained weakness in contracted sales and revenue, as well as weaker margins. Total revenue declined 31% y-o-y to CNY 116.5 mn, with contractions in GPM and the EBITDA margin. Key leverage ratios deteriorated over FY 2022, given the decline in revenue and profitability, despite debt reduction. Revenue/Debt weakened slightly to 137%, from 147% as at FYE 2021. Net Debt/Net Inventory was largely unchanged at a sound 19%. That said, Debt/EBITDA weakened to an aggressive 6.9x, due to the lower profitability. Liquidity was inadequate, with cash covering only 70% of ST debt.
