In the Smallvalue Q1 2025 fund letter, Toya (TPE:TOA, Financial) was highlighted as a new addition to the portfolio, reflecting the fund's confidence in its robust financial fundamentals and growth potential. Toya, a Polish small-cap company specializing in hand tools and household appliances, has demonstrated resilience in the face of macroeconomic challenges, achieving a 12.1% increase in sales in 2024.

"Despite recent macroeconomic challenges, Toya exhibited resilience with a 12.1% increase in sales in 2024, driven by robust performance in wholesale and export channels, coupled with a strong e-commerce presence in Poland. However, rising costs and operational expenses led to a contraction in EBIT and EBITDA. The company maintains a strong financial position, with a low Net Debt/EBITDA ratio of 0.17x, reflecting minimal leverage. Its normalized Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio of 7.20x remains well below the sector average, indicating potential undervaluation." — Smallvalue, Q1 2025 Fund Letter
