Analysis

Hope premium

Hanwha Ocean Co., Ltd. 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 30.3×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 12% a year, against analyst forecasts of 27%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

Growth is solid; the safety picture is stretched. The company scores 18/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator.

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