ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt 360° View of 51 (better than 51% compared with alternatives), overall professional sentiment and financial characteristics for the stock Sabre Insurance Group are above average. The 360° View is based on consolidating four consolidated indicators, with half of the metrics below and half above average for Sabre Insurance Group. The consolidated Growth Rank has a good rank of 100, which means that the company experiences above-average growth momentum when looking at financial metrics such as revenue, profit, and invested capital growth as well as stock returns. This means that growth is higher than for 100% of competitors in the same industry. In addition, the consolidated Safety Rank has a safer rank of 78 which means that the company has a financing structure that is safer than 78% comparable companies when looking at the amount of its debt, its refinancing requirements, and its ability to service debt. But the consolidated Value Rank has a less desirable rank of 23 which means that the share price of Sabre Insurance Group is on the higher side compared with typical size in indicators such as revenues, profits, and invested capital. This means that the stock price is higher than for 77% of alternative stocks in the same industry. The consolidated Sentiment Rank also has a low rank of 39, which means that professional investors are more pessimistic about the stock than for 61% of alternative investment opportunities. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated 360° View of 51, Sabre Insurance Group is better positioned than 51% of all alternative stock investment opportunities based on the Obermatt Method. As only half of the consolidated Obermatt Ranks exhibit excellent performance, the picture is ambiguous. Growth is above-average (Growth Rank of 100), and the company is safely financed (Safety Rank of 78). However, professional market sentiment is low(Sentiment Rank of 39). The negative market view on Sabre Insurance Group may be due to the high stock price (low value). A growth company like this may get too expensive at one point in time. If too many investors are desperate to board the train, they may drive stock prices above reasonable levels. It is typical for growth companies to have low value ratings, because investors are willing to pay more for companies that outperform their competitors. So the question is, how much more do you pay for the stock of Sabre Insurance Group compared with alternatives? You can use the following rule of thumb: The value rank shouldn’t be lower than one hundred minus the growth rank. For example, if the growth rank is at 75, and the value rank is at 5, you should tread carefully. If the value rank is at 40, it still might be a good value if the value rank is above 60. As market sentiment is low, you should be careful with paying more than market-average for this stock and conduct further research into the company’s future growth potential. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Value Rank of 23 (worse than 77% compared with alternatives), Sabre Insurance Group shares are significantly more expensive than comparable stocks. The Value Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, with three out of four indicators below average for Sabre Insurance Group. Only the metric dividend yield has an above-average rank, reflecting that dividend practices are expected to be higher than 60% of comparable companies, making the stock an attractive buy for dividend investors.

The same is valid for Price-to-Profit (also referred to as price-earnings, P/E) with a rank of 25 which means that the stock price compared with what market professionals expect for future profit levels is higher than 75% of comparable companies. In addition, Price-to-Book (also referred to as market-to-book ratio) with a Price-to-Book Rank of 36 is also low. Compared with invested capital, the stock price is higher than for 64% of comparable investments. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 23, is a sell recommendation based on Sabre Insurance Group's stock price compared with the company's operational size and dividend yields. Should dividend investors pick Sabre Insurance Group? The company-reported financials speak against it. The company is expensive compared with revenue and invested capital levels, two reliable company size indicators. In addition, it currently has a low level of profits. How can future dividends be paid in the case that profits remain low? Dividend investors should choose Sabre Insurance Group only if they reasonably expect the low current profit levels to be transitory. ...read more

CONSOLIDATED RANK: SAFETY	78

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Safety Rank of 78 (better than 78% compared with alternatives) for 2022, the company Sabre Insurance Group has safe financing practices, which means that their overall debt burden is low.

RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated Safety Rank of 78 (better than 78% compared with alternatives), Sabre Insurance Group has a financing structure that is significantly safer than that of its competitors. The refinancing issues could be a short-term problem, especially if the company has reputation issues. Banks and investors don't like to refinance debt if there are clouds on the horizon. For this reason, investors should look at the refinancing environment for Sabre Insurance Group. Does it look safe that debt that is coming due can be covered with new debt? If that is the case, then the financing situation of the company is on the safer side. If not, it may be better to wait until refinancing has been completed and the Refinancing rank is good again. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Combined Rank of 89 (better than 89% compared with investment alternatives), Sabre Insurance Group (Property & Casualty Insurance, United Kingdom) shares have much better financial characteristics than comparable stocks. Shares of Sabre Insurance Group are low in value (priced high) with a consolidated Value Rank of 23 (worse than 77% of alternatives). But they show above-average growth (Growth Rank of 100) and are safely financed (Safety Rank of 78, which means below-average debt burdens). ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: A Combined Rank of 89, is a strong buy recommendation based on Sabre Insurance Group's financial characteristics. Investors looking for growth and low financial risk may find this stock attractive. While the company Sabre Insurance Group exhibits low value (Obermatt Value Rank of 23), which means that the stock price is rather high, it also demonstrates above-average growth (Obermatt Growth Rank of 100). This is a typical case, as high-growth companies are often expensive. Good financing practices (Obermatt Safety Rank of 78) are a double-edged sword: if the company continues growing, low debt limits shareholder returns. But if the company increases its debt, it will also increase risk. In other words, this is an investment on the safer side, despite the above-average price (low value). ...read more
