Flawless balance sheet with solid track record
Over the past few years, AMI has more than doubled its earnings, with its most recent figure exceeding its annual average over the past five years. The strong earnings growth is reflected in impressive double-digit 54.1% return to shareholders, which is an optimistic signal for the future. AMI’s strong financial health means that all of its upcoming liability payments are able to be met by its current cash and short-term investment holdings. This implies that AMI manages its cash and cost levels well, which is a crucial insight into the health of the company. AMI appears to have made good use of debt, producing operating cash levels of 173x total debt in the prior year. This is a strong indication that debt is reasonably met with cash generated.
AMI’s shares are now trading at a price below its true value based on its discounted cash flows, indicating a relatively pessimistic market sentiment. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts’ consensus forecast growth be correct. Also, relative to the rest of its peers with similar levels of earnings, AMI’s share price is trading below the group’s average. This supports the theory that AMI is potentially underpriced.
