Informational only. Not investment advice.Snapshot
- ROE of 24.1% TTM vs industry median of -38.8% - profitable outlier in largely unprofitable specialty chemicals sector[Return on Equity]
- Goodwill of 1.7B is 54% of equity (2.9x tangible book) - acquisition-heavy model creates impairment exposure[Goodwill]
- FCF of 516M TTM (6.9% yield on market cap) funds 2.04/share dividend at 37% payout - sustainable capital return[Free Cash Flow]
Watch Triggers
- Operating Margin: Falls below 10% TTM — Would signal MAP 2025 benefits fading or raw material cost pressure overwhelming pricing power
- Goodwill: Impairment charge >100M — Acquisition strategy thesis breaks if purchased brands underperform
- Free Cash Flow: FCF conversion <60% of net income — Currently 75% - deterioration would threaten dividend sustainability
Bull Case
Consistent profitability (24% ROE, 12% ROIC TTM) in sector where median company loses money - durable competitive moat from brand portfolio and distribution
5.6% 5Y revenue CAGR with expanding margins converts to 6.9% FCF yield - compounding machine trading at 19.4x P/E near industry median
Bear Case
Debt/equity of 0.99x with 3B total debt vs 297M cash - net debt of 2.4B is 2.2x EBITDA, limiting M&A flexibility
Intangibles of 2.5B (81% of equity) from serial acquisitions - integration risk and potential write-downs if synergies disappoint
