Consumer staples are now at a near 25-year low in terms of relative valuation and at their lowest weight in the MSCI World Index this century. Yet the sector has demonstrated resilience despite an exceptionally turbulent four years. With growth driven by recurring revenue from the everyday products they sell, their operating resilience during economic downturns gives staples companies that exhibit agility, innovation and high levels of brand investment a key role in our portfolios.

Alors que les investisseurs anticipent à nouveau des perspectives favorables, comme si les baisses de marché ne s’étaient pas produites, disposer d’un portefeuille caractérisé par des bénéfices résilients et des valorisations raisonnables peut servir de moyen de défense de grande qualité, comme ce fut le cas cet été.

Si nos portefeuilles regorgent de grands groupes possédant des marques solides et reconnues, nous savons par expérience qu’il est aussi possible d’identifier de très bonnes opportunités d’investissement en ciblant des entreprises intervenant sur des segments de niche, en particulier celles jouant un rôle majeur sur un marché spécifique et entretenant d’étroites relations avec leurs clients. Malheureusement, même si cela n’est pas très surprenant, ces entreprises se retrouvent rarement sur le radar des investisseurs et passent fréquemment entre les mailles du filet de l’analyse sell-side.

Un tel environnement n’est pas des plus favorables pour une philosophie d’investissement qui recherche des gagnants bien établis dont les bénéfices résistent durant les périodes difficiles. Toutefois, les attentes globalement élevées et de plus en plus fortes à l’égard d’une entreprise en particulier, nous rendent nerveux quant aux perspectives du marché.

Si le débat entre gestion active et gestion passive est bien connu, il ne s'agit pas nécessairement d'une décision binaire. Nous pensons que la coexistence de l'investissement indiciel et de la gestion active dans les portefeuilles est tout à fait justifiée. Si les fonds indiciels offrent une large exposition et un accès flexible et bon marché à des thématiques tactiques, il existe toujours une opportunité d'être davantage sélectif, en particulier si l’on considère les biais présents dans les indices. Lorsque les cours des actions sont déconnectés des fondamentaux, les bons sélectionneurs de valeurs peuvent en tirer parti, à condition de disposer d'un horizon temporel plus long et d’une dynamique haussière alimentée par une expansion excessive des multiples.

Stock market concentration has risen sharply over the past decade, creating a tough environment for active managers. In this report, we look at concentration over the past 75 years to see where we stand. We review which companies have been the largest and how that has changed. We ask if there is a correct level of concentration by studying other global markets and by presenting the possibility it was too low before. We then examine whether corporate performance supports the current increase.

Alors que le marché cherche à tout prix à identifier la prochaine grande innovation, nous veillons à ce que les valorisations des entreprises soient justifiées par leurs fondamentaux sous-jacents et construisons un portefeuille composé des rares entreprises capables de capitaliser à un rythme élevé et durable. En effet, si les multiples ont représenté 85% des performances ce trimestre, sur 20 ans ce pourcentage tombe à 4%. En revanche, la croissance des bénéfices compte beaucoup plus - jusqu’à 71% sur 20 ans. Le processus de capitalisation exige rigueur et patience.

Most investors “price” the stocks of companies by using valuation multiples instead of “valuing” them based on future cash flows and fundamentals. We address what multiples miss and why they have become less informative. We examine how the two most popular multiples, P/E and EV/EBITDA, can provide different signals about a stock’s relative attractiveness. We then take a deep look at EV/EBITDA. We do not discourage the use of multiples, but users should understand the underlying value drivers.

La capitalisation est un atout précieux mais comment savoir si une entreprise a le potentiel d’être une valeur de capitalisation de qualité ? Nous mettons l’accent sur la rentabilité opérationnelle des capitaux employés (ROOCE) et les marges brutes. Les entreprises dont la ROOCE est élevée exercent généralement une activité générant des marges importantes et qui requiert peu d’actifs, tandis que les marges brutes élevées traduisent en principe un pouvoir de fixation des prix significatif. Ces caractéristiques nous indiquent les entreprises qui méritent d’être examinées de plus près et où nous devrions consacrer du temps à évaluer la durabilité de leur activité.

Après une année qui a montré que personne ne savait rien, nous débutons 2024 avec des arguments solides tant pour les optimistes les plus enjoués que pour les pessimistes les plus moroses. Et bien que nous ne sachions si l’économie mondiale va connaître un atterrissage en douceur ou forcé, le marché quant à lui anticipe clairement une issue positive. Si l’on ajoute à cela les multiples de valorisation élevés, la situation actuelle se caractérise par une asymétrie défavorable, avec un potentiel de hausse limité et un potentiel de baisse important. En cas de choc de marché, l’idée consiste comme toujours à tout faire pour maintenir des performances absolues à long terme.

The U.S. dollar has been the prominent global currency for more than 80 years, but its dominance is coming under pressure in the face of evolving geopolitical shifts and increasing twin deficits in the United States. Digital assets such as bitcoin, stablecoins in addition to the promise of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), have potential to significantly alter the currency landscape. These innovations, while still in their nascent stages, hold opportunities to both erode and reinforce the dollar’s hegemony in global finance, Andrew Peel of Digital Asset Markets explains.

We are in a new regime where “higher-for-longer” is likely and risk has a cost. We believe a diversified allocation is essential in this increasingly unpredictable environment. Our value philosophy focuses on quality, leading companies that are mispriced or misunderstood by the market and are trading at a discount to their intrinsic value.

We study the sources of total shareholder return (TSR) and tie them to underlying economic principles. This is useful to assess the prospective returns of a stock and to create a framework for flagging value traps. The analysis reveals that few investors in the stocks of companies that pay dividends earned the TSR and refutes the common belief that dividends contribute to capital accumulation. This framework gives investors a checklist of drivers and the tools to assess them.

We examine the demographics of public companies and their patterns of wealth creation. We focus on the last half century in the U.S. and review the “births” and “deaths” of public companies. We also discuss changes in market composition. Nearly 60 percent of companies have failed to create value, and 2 percent have created 90 percent of the aggregate wealth. This suggests two strategies for portfolio construction: seek broad diversification or aim to own the wealth creators.

U.S. companies are increasingly paying employees with stock-based compensation (SBC) rather than cash. We begin with data showing overall trends, then turn to the accounting issues, and wrap up by evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of SBC. Ongoing shareholders typically realize more dilution with young companies than with old ones because SBC tends to be more significant, and buybacks less significant, for young companies. Research is equivocal on the benefits commonly cited for SBC.

Probability and confidence are distinct concepts, and we believe it is useful for investors to separate them. For example, the price of two potential investments may present the same discount to expected value, but confidence in the probabilities for one may exceed those of the other. That nuance may be relevant for determining the appropriate weighting of securities or evaluating diversification.

This is a guide to estimating the cost of capital, a measure of both expected return and the discount rate. For example, investors discount future free cash flows at the cost of capital to come up with a present value. Our goal is to find a figure that reflects opportunity cost sensibly, is economically sound, and gives the investor and businessperson a practical solution. We recommend settling on a reasonable cost of capital and then allocating the bulk of time thinking about future cash flows.

We extend the analysis from our recent report, “Return on Invested Capital,” by adjusting ROIC for all companies to reflect intangible investment. While the median and aggregate ROIC for the adjusted figures is similar to the traditional one, the main result is that extremely high and low ROICs regress toward the mean. We believe these adjustments represent a step toward a more accurate view of the magnitude and return on investment.

Investors must look past simple measures of profits to understand a business’s true ability to create value. The rise of intangibles means more investments are expensed versus capitalized, which makes financial statements appear distorted versus those of the past. Academics distinguish between GAAP losers, companies that have losses but a high return on investment, and real losers, or those that have expenses unrelated to investment that exceed sales. Evidence from recent decades shows GAAP losers produced attractive shareholder returns relative to the real losers and profitable companies.

The goal of capital allocation is to put resources to their best use to create long-term value per share for ongoing shareholders. The first major part of capital allocation is investing in the business. The second is transacting with mispriced securities, which introduces the potential for wealth transfers between stakeholders. Astute investors appropriately focus on a management's ability to make investments in the business, but they should also pay attention to management actions with regard to buying and selling the company’s stock.

The shift from tangible to intangible investments has complicated the ability to interpret financial statements. One solution is to record intangible investments on the balance sheet and then amortize them over their useful lives. These adjustments recast profitability for some companies and are inconsequential for others. Overall, we estimate that earnings for the S&P 500 would be about 10 percent higher with these changes. This suggests great caution in comparing earnings or valuation multiples over time.

Organisms allocate energy between growth and maintenance and repair. They stop growing when maintenance requires all of the energy. Substitute capital for energy and companies appear to follow a similar trajectory. This is important because you can anticipate a company’s growth only if you understand how much capital it spends on growth versus maintenance. Most executives and investors likely underestimate maintenance spending. Steps toward better understanding include a proper assessment of maintenance capital expenditures and a separation of SG&A into investment and maintenance components.

We suggest the mantra “everything is a DCF model.” Whenever investors value a stake in a cash-generating asset, they should recognize they are using a discounted cash flow (DCF) model. The topic deserves attention because many market participants don’t think DCF models are relevant, and many use heuristics for value without recognizing the purpose and limitations of the shorthands. The intrinsic value, determined by the present value of future cash flows, attracts the price like a magnetic force. This means it is useful for investors to keep in mind the value drivers of a discounted cash flow model.

The shift in investments from tangible to intangible assets has important implications for how investors should think about corporate growth rates. Companies with more intangible assets can grow faster, but they can also become irrelevant and shrink faster. Our analysis of historical sales growth rates for U.S. companies reveals both of these results: higher growth and more dispersion, on average, for companies and industries with the highest intangible asset intensity. Skillful investors may be able to identify the companies that will grow faster than expected, hence providing the potential for attractive returns.

The idea of customer lifetime value has been around for decades, but we believe our discussion is richer and more nuanced than what many companies and analysts present. We discuss a framework called customer-based corporate valuation, which links customer economics to shareholder value and offers a more robust way to forecast revenues. We also show the limitations of common ratios such as customer lifetime value to customer acquisition cost (LTV/CAC), explore how companies can create consumer and supplier surplus, provide a case study, examine trade-offs in the drivers of value, and explore common errors.
