Analysis:
rates Spirit Realty Capital as a
. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its solid stock price performance, revenue growth, reasonable valuation levels, good cash flow from operations and expanding profit margins. Although the company may harbor some minor weaknesses, we feel they are unlikely to have a significant impact on results.
Highlights from the ratings report include:
- Compared to its closing price of one year ago, SRC's share price has jumped by 28.35%, exceeding the performance of the broader market during that same time frame. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, SRC should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 11.9%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 3.7%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displaying stagnant earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $89.64 million or 12.59% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, SPIRIT REALTY CAPITAL INC has also modestly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 11.78%.
- SPIRIT REALTY CAPITAL INC reported flat earnings per share in the most recent quarter. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, SPIRIT REALTY CAPITAL INC turned its bottom line around by earning $0.27 versus -$0.10 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($0.32 versus $0.27).
