It's rallying today. A quality income stock, paying 4% trading at 18x earnings. They beat on earnings by 10% and revenues by 4%. Consumers will buy staples like toilet paper even with inflation and rising rates. KC plans to grown in emerging markets.

Pays a yield of nearly 4%. You can buy a tranche now, but they didn't have a great quarter.

TOP PICK
Kimberly Clark
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly The producer of personal care products has clearly benefited from the pandemic -- after all who doesn't recall store shelves emptied of tp. Recently reported earnings shows a slow down in sales growth, which should not be totally unexpected. Management is engaging in a cost saving restructuring plan to help boost margins. It pays a good dividend, backed by a payout ratio of under 65%. A defensive holding, not a high-flyer. We would buy this with a stop loss at $115, looking to achieve $155 -- upside potential of 15%. Yield 3.49% (Analysts’ price target is $146.34)

They delivered an okay quarter. The dividend is 3.5%. You can buy this and put it away while collecting the 3.5. Investors hate these stocks now, like Clorox, though he likes them.

TOP PICK
Kimberly Clark
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly KMB is a consumer staple stock that offers good value, a solid dividend backed by a 60% payout ratio, a growth opportunity. Recently reported revenues were up over 5% over the year, handily beating analyst expectations. Quarterly EPS of $1.58 beat expectations by over 10%. The company generated over $3.7 billion in cash flow and management has plans to use it to improve efficiencies. We would buy this with a stop-loss at $115, looking to achieve $154 -- upside of over 14%. Yield 3.14% (Analysts’ price target is $153.30)

Has been volatile this year and their last report missed Management is fine. They face price wars with P&G all the time, and P&G is bigger. KMB is okay if you collected the 3.13% dividend.

This has a remarkably consistent and remarkably high ROC in about the 12% range. He would have expected it to be lower. Valuation may be a little bit rich, but not at the point where he would be getting out.

UFS-N vs. KMB-N. UFS-N has a nice balance sheet that is well protected and a dividend north of 4%. It is a well run company with a defensible market share when you look at some of the fast growth markets they have been trying to address like Asia. They have been keen to ramp up their exports to Asia. He would refer UFS-N at these valuations.

Very consistent, improving return on capital up to 12%. It is a good time to get into it. It is a little rich, however.

Over the last couple of years, they have been working hard on the internal workings of their business. Have been reorganizing, cutting costs and rationalizing. This is as a result that their business is a slow growth one. Thinks they have done a good job in terms of reorganizing. The difficulty is not with what management has done, but is the price that the market is looking for him to pay, close to 20X earnings. He doesn’t understand why a slow growth company like this would demand a 20 multiple.

Great company and wonderful brands. Spinning off their healthcare division, and doing so at a wonderful valuation. Going to have a lot of cash which he sees as being used for share buybacks. This is a company with which you can sleep well at night. If it fell off 5%-10% more, it would be one he would consider.
