Cris-Tim Family Holding S.A.

The brief

Cris-Tim processes and distributes meat products across Romania in two segments: Cold Cuts (sausages, hams, salamis, bacon, spreads) under brands like Cris-Tim and Matache Macelaru, and Ready Meals (prepared dishes, cooked components, salads) under the Bunata?i brand [Yahoo Finance]. The company reaches customers through modern retail chains and independent stores, with some export sales [Yahoo Finance].

Cris-Tim Family Holding is a Romanian meat processing and ready-meal producer operating under the Cris-Tim, Matache Macelaru and Bunata?i brands, with 2,097 employees and distribution through hypermarkets, supermarkets and independent retailers [Yahoo Finance]. The company is preparing 'record-level' capital spending and targets 1.2 billion lei in annual sales, which would represent modest growth from its trailing-twelve-month revenue of RON 1.2B [economica.net] [Yahoo Finance]. Its stock fell 12% on 23 September 2026 during a broader market downturn with thin trading volume [zf.ro].

Profitable meat processor with healthy margins but negative free cash flow and no institutional investor base for this listing.

Negative free cash flow of RON 64.2M over the trailing twelve months means the business consumed more cash than it generated, even as it reported positive net income of RON 111.0M [Sentinellis calculation] [Yahoo Finance]. Capital spending appears to be outpacing operational cash generation.

Figures come from company filings and market data. The Sentinellis health score and the wording attached to it are our interpretation of those figures, not numbers the company reported.

Not investment advice and not a recommendation to buy or sell. Sentinellis holds no positions in the companies it covers, takes no payment from issuers, and has no broker referral arrangements.
