Description

Analysis

Quality compounder

Höegh Autoliners ASA earns the quality_compounder label: good underlying economics priced fairly, with no obvious bargain or excess. Worth noting: the cash the business generates has lagged behind what the income statement shows.

On valuation, the picture is attractive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 13.3×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 1% a year, against analyst forecasts of -14%. The market is pricing in far more than analysts expect: heroic expectations.

Growth is moderate; the safety picture is adequate. The company scores 16/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator. 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.
