Company Overview
Considering peers, relative underperformance over the last year and the last month suggest a lagging position.
New Jersey Resources Corporation’s current Price/Book of 2.53 is about median in its peer group.
The market expects NJR-US to grow at about the same rate as the peers and to maintain the median returns it currently generates.
NJR-US‘s median net profit margins and relatively high asset efficiency give it some operating leverage.
Compared with its chosen peers, the company’s annual revenues and earnings change at a slower rate, implying a lack of strategic focus and/or lack of execution success.
NJR-US‘s return on assets currently and over the past five years suggest that its relatively high operating returns are sustainable.
The company’s relatively low gross and pre-tax margins suggest a non-differentiated product portfolio and not much control on operating costs relative to peers.
While NJR-US‘s revenues growth has been below the peer median in the last few years, the market still gives the stock a P/E ratio that is around peer median and seems to see the company as a long-term strategic bet.
The company’s level of capital investment seems appropriate to support the company’s growth.
NJR-US seems to be constrained by the current level of debt.
