Shares of UnitedHealth Group and Vertex Pharma Sour
Image Source: Rodrigo Senna cc by 2.0. As of right now, we continue to monitor the situation with UnitedHealth, but the risks have substantially increased. We have no plans to remove it from the Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio at this time as we await news flow to settle down. As for Vertex, we continue to like its established position in cystic fibrosis and its opportunity in gene-editing therapies as well as a new class of medicine for acute pain that’s without the limitations of opioids. Though the news regarding suzetrigine wasn’t what the market was hoping for, the company’s pipeline is progressing nicely.

3 Dividend Growth Stocks for the Long Run
Image: Mike Mozart. There are many applications for the discounted cash-flow model. Not only does the tool help to derive a fair value estimate for a company, but the core drivers behind the intrinsic value calculation are also key drivers behind the health of a dividend payer. Stocks with a solid net cash position and also generate strong expected free cash flows more than their cash dividend obligations are in a much better position to grow their payouts in the future than stocks burdened by a net debt position and where their free cash flow comes up short. Apple, Microsoft and Dick’s Sporting Goods make the cut and are three of our favorite dividend growth stocks on the market today.

Best Buy’s Free Cash Flow Comes Up Short in Covering Dividend
Image Source: Mike Mozart. For fiscal 2024, Best Buy generated ~$1.47 billion in operating cash flow and spent $795 million in capital spending, resulting in free cash flow of $675 million, below what it paid in dividends on the year ($801 million). That didn’t stop Best Buy from upping its dividend 2%, however, and the company continues to buy back stock. Best Buy yields ~4.6% at the time of this writing, but capital spending and volatile operating cash flow are two considerations top of mind for income-oriented investors.

Fedex Bolstered By Cost Savings from Its DRIVE Program
Image: FedEx continues to extract cost savings from its DRIVE initiatives. FedEx is doing a lot of things right as it drives cost savings from its DRIVE program in the face of a challenging revenue environment. Shares of FedEx bounced nicely following the release of its fiscal third quarter report, and while they aren’t trading at bargain basement prices on the basis of our fair value estimate, we think shares could have upside to north of $300 based on the high end of our fair value estimate range. Shares yield ~1.8% at the time of this writing.

Abercrombie & Fitch’s Mighty Comeback!
Image Source: Abercrombie & Fitch. Abercrombie & Fitch is experiencing a resurgence as the company reconnects with its target market, and the traction it has regained with its customers is quite something. The firm noted that it continues to experience strong momentum across its brand portfolio, and its long-term target is to achieve $5 billion in global sales (its sales were $4.3 billion in its most recent fiscal year). For 2024, it expects net sales to expand 4%-6%, and for its operating margin to be ~12%, up 60 basis points from the mark it reached last year. Abercrombie swung to being significantly free cash flow positive in its most recently completed fiscal year, and it ended the period with a net cash position. The company’s comeback has been nothing short of remarkable. Fickle fashion trends make the stock difficult to consider for long-term investors, however.
