Nippon Telegraph and Telephone clears its cost of capital, but the record is mixed across the five tests. Real value creation, just not yet consistent.

Analysis

Weak and unloved

NTT, Inc. is weak and unloved: below-average business metrics and a price that reflects that disappointment.

The price is fair. You pay 19.7× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically fair zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly 6% yearly growth; analysts expect 8%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

The trajectory is moderate and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

What to watch: Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
