Top 10 Stock Tokio Marine Buy Recommendation



How to read the ranks

For every stock, we judge its performance against its peers and rank it on a scale of 1 to 100. The higher the rank, the better the stock performs than its peers. And, we do this for six investment strategies:

Value - shows how good of a value the stock is. Green is "inexpensive"; red is "expensive".

Growth - shows a company's growth potential. Green is "high growth" expected; red is "tough times ahead".

Safety - relates to the amount of debt a company has. Green is low debt level; red is high debt level.

Combined Financial - this isn't an average of the first three ranks but rather a consolidated view across several financial indicators. Green = good; red = tread carefully.

(NEW) Sentiment - quantifies professional analyst ratings and holdings as well as market pulse. Green = positive sentiment; red = skepticism (Only available to Premium Subscribers).

(NEW) 360° View - the ultimate rating with all financial and non-financial indicators.

Top 10 Stocks ≠ most popular stocks

For each investment strategy, we provide you with more detailed analysis and our recommendation. You see the ranks of the top 10 stocks ranked by that particular investment strategy (360° View, Sentiment, Value, Growth, Safety and Combined Financial Performance).

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt 360° View of 62 (better than 62% compared with alternatives), overall professional sentiment and engagement for the stock Tokio Marine are above average. The 360° View is based on consolidating four consolidated indicators, with all but one indicator above average for Tokio Marine. The consolidated Growth Rank has a good rank of 52, 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 52% of competitors in the same industry. The consolidated Safety Rank at 92 means that the company has a financing structure that is safer than 92 comparable companies when looking at the amount of its debt, its refinancing requirements, and its ability to service debt. Finally, the consolidated Sentiment Rank has a good rank of 85, which means that professional investors are more optimistic about the stock than for 85% of alternative investment opportunities. But the consolidated Value Rank is less desirable at 29, meaning that the share price of Tokio Marine is on the higher side compared with indicators such as revenues, profits, and invested capital. This means the stock price is higher than for 71% of alternative stocks in the same industry. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: With a 360° View of 62, Tokio Marine is better than 62% of all alternative stock investment opportunities based on the Obermatt Method. As three out of four consolidated Obermatt Ranks exhibit excellent performance, such as above-average growth (Growth Rank of 52), a safe financing structure (Safety Rank of 92), and positive professional market sentiment (Sentiment Rank of 85), it is a solid stock investment where growth may be the strongest driver of the investment rationale, also reflected by institutional investors. It is typical for growth companies to have low value, as is the case here. 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 Tokio Marine compared with alternatives? You can use the following rule of dumb: The growth rank reflects where the growth momentum of the company is (52% better than peers). The value rank could be the reverse reflection of that (48%). A Value Rank below that level may be assessed as expensive, a rank above that is still good value. Sometimes market sentiment just extrapolates the past, but sometimes they are right. You pay more than the market average for this stock, but it may be worth it. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: With an Obermatt Sentiment Rank of 85 (more positive than 85% compared with investment alternatives), Tokio Marine has a reputation among professional investors that is significantly higher than that of its competitors. This is an early sign of caution, even if the stock has significantly appreciated. If analysts change their opinions, the stock may become too expensive. If the price is on the way down, the trend may continue. This may be a stock with a good reputation and history, but it may have reached its breaking point by now. Investors should look at the Value Ranks as well. If they indicate trouble, it might just materialize in the future. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Value Rank of 29 (worse than 71% compared with alternatives), Tokio Marine shares are more expensive than the average comparable stock. The Value Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, where the majority of metrics are below, and only one is above average for Tokio Marine. Price-to-Sales (P/S) is 64, which means that the stock price compared with what market professionals expect for future sales is lower than 64% of comparable companies, indicating a good value concerning to Tokio Marine's revenue size. But all other performance indicators point in a different direction. Dividend yields have a Dividend Yield rank of 48, meaning that dividends are expected to be lower than for 52% of comparable investments. Furthermore, Price-to-Book Capital (also referred to as market-to-book ratio) is less favorable than 69% of alternatives (only 31% of peers have an even higher ratio). The same is valid for Price-to-Profit (or Price / Earnings, P/E), which is higher than for 75% of comparable companies, making the stock more expensive compared with the company's expected profit levels. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 29, is a HOLD recommendation based on Tokio Marine's stock price compared with the company's operational size and dividend yields. Since Price-to-Sales is a stable value indicator even in challenging times, investing in Tokio Marine could be seen as a value investment. However, there must be a good reason for the low market-to-book rank. If the company has a typical capital investment practice, the stock may be overvalued because the profit and dividend-related performance indicators are also low. The stock is only good value if investors can expect profits and dividends to pick up in the future. Else, Tokio Marine looks like an expensive investment today. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Growth Rank of 52 (better than 52% compared with alternatives), Tokio Marine shows an above-average growth dynamic in its industry. Investors also speak of positive momentum. The Growth Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, with half of the indicators below and half above average for Tokio Marine. Capital Growth has a rank of 69, which means that currently professionals expect the company to grow its invested capital more than 14% of its competitors. Investors welcomed this, visible in the Stock Returns rank of 85 (above 85% of alternative investments). But Sales Growth has only a rank of 44, which means that, currently, professionals expect the company to grow less than 56% of its competitors, and Profit Growth is also low at a rank of 14. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 52, is a BUY recommendation for growth and momentum investors. This is an ambiguous picture. Revenue growth and capital growth are strong, but the growth in profit, which seems good, can also be an indication that growth momentum may be negative. The fact that stock returns have been above average doesn't help much, as stock returns are less reliable in showing a company’s future growth potential. Prices may perform well for the simple reason that investors were too pessimistic in the past and are now correcting their opinions and moving the stock price to a more reasonable level. As the growth picture is mixed for Tokio Marine, investors may want to look at value and sentiment indicators for a well-rounded picture of this stock. ...read more

It has more debt in the refinancing stage than 88% of its competitors. ...read more

RECOMMENDATION: With an Obermatt Safety Rank of 92 (better than 92% compared with alternatives), Tokio Marine 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 Tokio Marine. 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

Shares of Tokio Marine are low in value (priced high) with a consolidated Obermatt Value Rank of 29 (worse than 71% of alternatives).

RECOMMENDATION: An Obermatt Combined Rank of 74, is a buy recommendation based on Tokio Marine's financial characteristics. Investors looking for growth and low financial risk may find this stock attractive. While the company Tokio Marine exhibits low value (Obermatt Value Rank of 29), which means that the stock price is rather high, it also demonstrates above-average growth (Obermatt Growth Rank of 52). This is a typical case, as high-growth companies are often expensive. Good financing practices (Obermatt Safety Rank of 92) 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
