Analysis

Quality compounder

Standard Bank Group Limited is a quality compounder: a well-run business trading at a price that reflects what it is worth.

The price is attractive. You pay 10.7× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically attractive zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly -2% yearly growth; analysts expect 11%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

The trajectory is solid and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 20/20 on our value-creation score: strong value creator. Analyst sentiment is cautious.

What to watch: Some accounting patterns deserve a closer look. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
