Analysis

Deep value

CNA Financial Corporation lands in the deep-value zone: the price is very low, but so are the business fundamentals.

The price is attractive. You pay 10.0× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically attractive zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly -3% yearly growth; analysts expect 2%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

The trajectory is tepid and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 18/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator. Analyst sentiment is cautious.

Nothing is flagged here: no red or amber gates, no divergence between profits and cash. That is itself information: the numbers are straightforward. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
