Analysis

Hope premium

Targa Resources Corp. is priced well ahead of what the underlying numbers justify, a pattern we describe as a hope premium. Worth noting: the cash the business generates has lagged behind what the income statement shows.

On valuation, the picture is expensive. The owner-earnings multiple stands at 217.4×; owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year. The implied growth embedded in that price is around 39% a year, against analyst forecasts of 18%. The market is pricing in far more than analysts expect: heroic expectations.

Growth is solid; the safety picture is stretched. The company scores 12/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

Flags to be aware of: Reported profits have run ahead of actual cash for several periods. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
