I've recently started looking at STS. On fundamentals, and after dilution to 64m shares, STS looks to be undervalued by most normal measures (other than Price/NTA where it is near 1) (see below). To estimate the forward yield of the stock I have reduced the STSs div forecast by 20%. Historically, STS appear to be in the habit of overestimating eps and divs by around 10%. After this adjustment, it looks like the dividend yield is 8.2% in 2010 and 10.4% in 2011.
All up, it seems like a good buy on fundamentals and outlook. I am not familiar with the management of the company or broader issues that may place downward pressure on the share price. Does anyone have (real not ramping) comments on the outlook of the company?
Cheers
