Analysis

Hope premium

Port of Tauranga Limited is priced well ahead of what the underlying numbers justify, a pattern we describe as a hope premium.

On valuation, the picture is expensive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 28.5×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 11% a year, against analyst forecasts of 16%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is solid; the safety picture is sturdy. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value. Analyst sentiment is cautious.

Flags to be aware of: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
