Skagen Vekst Statusrapport – November 2015

Transcript

SKAGEN Vekst Statusrapport – november 2015 Hovedtrekk – november 2015 • November måned ble på ingen måte like sterk som oktober. SKAGEN Vekst leverte en avkastning på 0,6 prosent, betydelig svakere enn referanseindeksens oppgang på 2,7 prosent . • De beste bidragsyterne i november var Norsk Hydro, Oriflame Cosmetics og Lundin Petroleum, mens Samsung Electronics, Wilhelm Wilhelmsen og Norwegian bidro på den negative siden. • Siste måneds avkastningstall ble noe preget av et lite tilbakefall på våre to koreanere, Samsung og Kia, samt svak utvikling i noen av våre norske investeringer. I disse norske papirene har vi sett økt salgspress på børs selv om de siste rapportene har vist en klar resultatforbedring. • To nye investeringer ble tatt inn i fondet i løpet av november. Det svenske kommunikasjon- og teknologiselskapet LM Ericsson og den amerikanske eggprodusenten Cal-Main Foods. I tillegg økte vi beholdningen i Norwegian etter at aksjen ble kraftig solgt ned på en potensiell seteavgift samt økt terrorfrykt. Det malaysiskbaserte flyselskapet Air Asia ble solgt helt ut av porteføljen, mens beholdningen ble redusert noe i Kia Motors og Danske Bank. • Så langt har 2015 vært et utfordrende år i relative termer for SKAGEN Vekst. En betydelig eksponering (18 prosent) mot norske aksjer har bidratt negativt da det norske markedet har underlevert i forhold til fondets indeks (8% versus 17%). De fleste av våre langsiktige investeringer har imidlertid utviklet seg bra og vi vil fortsette arbeidet med å øke kvaliteten på underliggende selskaper, noe som vil gi seg utslag i solid absolutt avkastning fremover. * Om ikke annet er sagt er alle avkastningstall i rapporten for klasse A etter honorarer. 2 A Avkastning, november 2015 A SKAGEN Vekst A Referanseindeks* Relativ avkastning November QTD Hittil i år 1 år 3 år 5 år 10 år Siden start* 0,6% 8,1% 6,9% 10,1% 16,8% 7,5% 7,3% 14,5% 2,7% 8,6% 18,1% 22,4% 23,3% 15,0% 10,1% 10,7% -2,0% -0,5% -11,2% -12,4% -6,5% -7,5% -2,8% 3,8% Note: Alle avkastningstall ut over 12 måneder er annualisert (geometrisk avkastning). *Startdato: 1 desember 1993. **Fondets investeringsmandat ble endret med virkning fra 01.01.2014 fra at fondet investerte minst 50 % av sine midler i Norge til at fondet investerer minst 50 % av sine midler i Norden.

I sum anser vi selskapet som attraktivt priset, da særlig sett opp mot andre store nordiske selskaper. Salg AirAsia • Det Malaysia-baserte lavkost flyselskapet ble solgt ut i november måned. • Selskapet har vist en imponerende vekst siste 10 år, men har i den senere tid møtt på problemer i sine datterselskaper ( Filippinene og Indonesia) • Etter at aksjen hadde hentet inn forsommerens kursfall, valgte vi å selge oss helt ut av selskapet. Vi har fortsatt tro på at AirAsia er et veldrevet flyselskap med gode vekstmuligheter, men usikkerheten knyttet til datterselskapene gjør at vi kan anvende kapitalen bedre i andre investeringer. 11 Sektor og geografisk fordeling versus referanseindeks (%) Sektorfordeling 7 Energi Asia DM 5 Asia EM 6 19 Kapitalvarer, service og transport 16 13 11 Inntektsavhengige forbruksvarer 8 14 15 Bank og finans 2 0 Latin Amerika 0 1 Midt Østen og Afrika 0 0 16 7 8 Nord Amerika 12 Telekom 12 24 10 22 Informasjonsteknologi Kontanter 3 Europa EM 4 Medisin Oceania 4 0 1 Kontanter 0 0 24 19 Sverige 54 50 2 0 0 Norden i SKAGEN Vekst 29 Norden 0 Indeks 10 Europa DM, ekskl.

Investment case update Q3 was not as strong as the previous two quarters for the German based tire and car supplier, but this is no change in trend. Q3 was influenced negatively by four factors; 1)weak China (down 13% QoQ), but market is back strongly so far in Oct-Nov (with some help from the government). 2) Weaker sale of winter tires due to warm weather, this has changed in October, and they expect to see FY2015 sales of roughly 21 million winter tires, on par with last year. 3) Negative mix, mainly due to Powertrain. 4) Very weak mining and oil exploration business. 17 mines closed worldwide in September and YTD there have been 71 closed mines. This has hit ContiTech in the conveyor belt business (ca 25% of ContiTech’s business) and they do not believe this business will pick up in the near future. Conti increased FY2015 guidance to above EUR 39bn in revenues (Automotive 23.5 – Rubber 15.5) and hiked margin outlook from ca 11% to above 11% (Auto above 8.5% and Rubber above 16%) Free cash flow expected to be above EUR 2bn. ROE has been steady around mid-20ies last 4 years, and we do not see any reason why this number should come down going forward. Strong cash flow generation (above 6% FCF yield), we will keep the stock until we see the share price above EUR 250. Unpopular: Not exactly, but 56% sell/hold is not a crowded fan club Under analyzed: no, wide coverage (32 analysts) Undervalued: yes, but not as much as it used to be. Even with no growth in rubber division and AutoTech continue to grow 6% this is a EUR 260-280 stock, and in addition ADAS (advanced driver assistant system) has a rapid growth (will double revenue from 2015 to 2018. Fact Conti reported 9M sales up 14% to EUR 29bn (org sales +3%) and EBIT up by 16% to EUR 3.4bn (EBIT margin at 12%). Free cash flow at EUR 316 mill, and FCF before acquisitions of EUR 1.5bn. Net debt slightly up to EUR 4.3bn, equity ratio at 38%. Trailing ROCE up by 230 bps to 21.6%. 14 Key earnings releases and corporate news, November 2015 Carlsberg (5.3%) Setting sail for a more profitable future – self-help case getting clearer. Stock up 7% on the news Investment case update Carlsberg, the Danish brewer, investment case core is; a stable earner with sub-par profitability to peers and on route to be improved. The 3Q15 report confirms the path. Organic sales grew 3% and operating profit grew 9% to a 18.9% margin. Carlsberg’s annual OP-margin is 14%, while the three large peers (InBev, SAB Miller and Heineken) do 32%, 20% and 17% respectively. Geographical mix will not enable Carlsberg to reach more than 17-18%, but the investment thesis only require 15.5% to reach the 856 DKK target price. Sail 2022 strategy plan will be communicated in March 2016, so the next few months the stock will likely move higher as Nordic investors a heavy underweight in a stock with market level valuation and 3 times the growth rate. Unpopular: yes - it’s shorted, few domestic institutions hold it and it’s perceived as ’Danish Ministry of Beer’. Sell-siders are 84% sell/hold. Perfect for SKAGEN. Under analyzed: semi – 35 analysts and it’s a beer company most people know. However, focus is on the poor historical track record and they don’t buy into the better profitability coming. Undervalued: yes – EPS is likely to grow 15-20% next few years and stock trades at 16x earnings – in line with overall market, which has 7% growth. It’s a well-known business model, so execution risk on the way forward should be limited. Carlsberg has net debt of 32bn DKK (most of it from 2007 acquisition of Baltika in Russia), they pay 1.4bn DKK in dividend, so it will take them 4-5 years to become debt free (which would again lift net cash earnings by 1bn DKK per year), so good upside leverage. Facts 3Q15 report – main elements; • • • 15 Sales 18bn DKK +1%, OP 3.5bn DKK +2%.West Europe sales up 5%, however lower profitability. East Europe/Russia sales down 23%, but much better profitability as 3Q14 was impacted by write-downs. Asia 18% sales growth and better profitability due to scale effects. Restructuring /impairment charge of 8.5bn DKK. 97% non-cash. Will improve profitability by 1.5-2.0bn DKK by 2017 (2/3 will be visible in 2016) to fund investment in future profitability. More details in March 2022 with Sail 2022 strategy plan including working capital improvements. Will reduce debt and increase shareholder remuneration. M&A off the agenda – VERY good news and Carlsberg’s M&A history is a textbook of how not to do it. Key earnings releases and corporate news, October 2015 Oriflame (1,6%) Solid Q3 numbers and strong start into Q4, stock rallied 15% on the report Investment case update Challenges remain in CIS and Europe, but the development is improving a bit. However, Oriflame reported once again double digit growth in both LatAm and Turkey, Africa and Asia. These markets now accounts for close to half of the total sales with an increased contribution to the overall earnings. The YTD sales development is 2% in local currency and so far Q4 has shown sales of 9% in local currency. Oriflame aims to achieve sales growth of 10% (local currency) per annum with an operating margin of 15% (double of today’s margin). If we assume 10% margin and 3-4% sales growth going forward, ORI SS should be valued above SEK 200. Unpopular: yes, 82% sell/hold. Huge short interest in the stock Under analyzed: no, 11 analysts cover the company. Undervalued: yes, as most focus continue to be on CIS/Russia while the strong growing business (50% of revenues) is “overlooked”. Facts Oriflame reported sales in local currencies increase of 4% and EUR sales decrease of 4% to EUR 263 mill. Sales development was impacted by 9% increase in productivity while the number of consultants decreased by 5% to 2.8 mill. Unit sales were down by 10%, while the price/mix effect was positive at 14%. The mix effect is driven by a combination of geography and product mix, primarily driven by Wellness and Skin Care and China still growing triple digits. 16 The largest companies in SKAGEN Vekst Samsung Electronics, the Korean electronics group, has enjoyed very solid growth in consumer electronics, especially smartphones. Pole position in global semiconductor market. Cash generation is very strong and the company has historically wisely invested in new business areas – solar power and healthcare are on the roadmap for the future. Continental AG produces tyres for cars and trucks and makes auto technology such as power trains, safety systems and automated drive systems. The replacement cycle for tyres is becoming stretched in some markets, so near-term earnings look promising. In the longer-term Continental’s pole position in global auto technology provides a good backdrop for substantial growth.

Radio panels, base-stations, transmission/backbone solutions via microwave, fiber etc. Services (43% of revenues and 48%) provide outsourcing of mobile network operation, management and maintenance. Network migration from 3G to 4G/LTE and next step into 5G mobile networks Support solutions ( 5% of revenues and 2% of operating income) provide network services that enable network operators to integrate content services on their platform (media, payment, hosted services) Geo-split - Americas 34%, Asia 25% (China 13%), Europe 24%, RoW 17% Number of employees: 118.000 employees – 2m SEK revenue/pax, down from 2.8m in 2003-09 period. Well known investment case for years – new VoIP services triggered renewed interest Business model and investment thesis Swedish engineering with global reach. Mobile communication net works are seeing ever higher data capacity needs driven by video streaming on smartphones, tablets etc. All mobile com payment platforms moving towards data only – Voice over IP. Company more streamlined towards networks and service /support and less on production and consumer hardware. Partnership with Cisco Thesis: Ericsson didn’t get full benefit on 3G, coming back in 4G, but with Huawei rocking the boat and 5G position is good. ESG: no issues identified – for sub-suppliers Ericsson is ISO 14.001 compliant Triggers: 1. Shorter term triggers are improved profitability despite soft patch revenues. Apple patent case with 20bn SEK compensation to Ericsson plus 6bn SEK in annual royalty fee potential. 2. Share count reduction /higher dividends 3. Nokia/Alcatel merger will preoccupy that management team with integration issues. Huawei price dumping being addressed by EU and new ‘better ROIC’ policies in China. More leverage of patent pool. 4. 5G mobile network build-out and ever more small-cell infrastructure inside buildings 5. Cisco partnership to materialize further (exp 1bn USD increased sales 2018) Risks 1. Insufficient efficiency gains and continued low price market approach from Huawei and others of the like 2. M&A; history show a patchy record. Rumored Samsung's networks are for sale. 3. Technological obsolete patent pool (very low likeliness) Target price With revenues growth of 5% and improved profitability (peers do 13-14% OP-margin we can see operating earnings going from 20bn SEK to 30bn SEK in 2018. At EPS level it’s from 3.60 SEK to 6.25 SEK and with 16x multiple (market level) it’s 20% upside. On top comes 4% dividend per year for 33% upside over 2-3 years. 0% 80% Key figures: Market cap SEK NOK 273bn 273bn Net debt (cash) No. of shares A and B shares SEK (25)Bn 3.3bn 3 251m P/E 2015 P/E 2016 P/BV trailing ROE 2014-16 Yield Altman Z score 16.8x 13.4x 1.97x 10% 4.3% 3.53x Daily turnover SEK 850m No of analysts 34 with sell/hold 43% Owners A-shares: Investor 44%, Industrivärden 33%, Handdelsbanken pension 10% B-shs: Swedbank 6%, Norge Bank 4% www.ericsson.com 19 Long term value builder Special situation 3U for Ericsson Unpopular Underanalyzed • Well known business however with a underperformance over the last 10-12 years. • Sell-side is mixed and after a disappointing 3Q15 report (lower sales in China a.o.). The stock is down 30% since April 2015 high in line with other Swedish global exporters. • Due to long term performance many Swedish investors (ex Investor and Industrivärden) have lost patience • No – as a global leader in mobile communication infrastructure Ericsson and it’s 118.000 engineers are good ambassadors to tell about their technological excellences. Investor trust in management delivering on better profitability is not seen in the stockprice implying its somewhat underanalyzed • Undervalued • Given it’s historical earnings profile and forward path it’s about fair value at 83-87 SEK. The earnings profile for 2018 could well be above 7.00 per share driven by profitability improvements, new products, harvesting the patent pool and less price dumping by Chinese competitors. Compared with peers Ericsson has more potential for internal improvements, so even with difficult market conditions earnings can improve. * 20 In USD For mer informasjon, vennligst se: Siste Markedsrapport Informasjon om SKAGEN Vekst på våre nettsider Historisk avkastning er ingen garanti for framtidig avkastning.
