Net-Cash-Rich, Free-Cash-Flow Generating Powerhouse Salesforce Has a Long Growth Runway
Image Source: Salesforce. On November 29, Salesforce reported excellent fiscal third-quarter results and issued an outlook for its fiscal fourth quarter that came in better than expectations. The Dow Jones Industrial Average component’s results were welcome news as the bellwether revealed that spending on cloud-based CRM software remains robust. In the quarter ending October 31, revenue advanced 11% on a year-over-year basis, while non-GAAP diluted earnings per share came in at a solid $2.11. Its outlook was rosier than what the Street was expecting. For the fiscal fourth quarter, the company is targeting non-GAAP earnings per share in the range of $2.25-$2.26 per share, better than the consensus forecast of $2.18. The strong quarter only increases our confidence in Salesforce’s longer-term outlook, and we plan to raise our fair value estimate of the firm upon our next report update.

Can Things Really Stay This Good?
"Large cap growth is booming. Small cap value is trailing. Dividend payers are stagnating. The markets are making a lot of sense again. But I do have my worries. When things are going this well, some market choppiness is probably in the cards. The S&P 500 is now bumping up against the high end of its downtrend, so the remainder of this year will likely see some increased volatility. On the back of Nvidia’s momentum and the great promise of artificial intelligence, however, I wonder if the first half of 2024 will be awesome followed by a very difficult back half of 2024 as some of my concerns finally catch up to the markets. But that just might be at the time the Fed starts cutting rates." -- Brian Nelson, CFA

Cash Cow Republic Services’ ESG Initiatives Bearing Fruit
Image Source: Gabriel Langton. Republic Services remains our favorite garbage hauler. The company is a cash cow, and it continues to drive dividend growth as it buys back shares. When it reported third-quarter results on October 26, the firm showed strong adjusted earnings per share expansion, to $1.54, up from $1.34 in last year’s period. For the first nine months of the year, the firm grew cash flow from operations to ~$2.7 billion, up from ~$2.38 billion during the same period last year, driving strong adjusted free cash flow generation of ~$1.8 billion, materially higher than the ~$470 million in cash dividends it paid over the same period. The board authorized $3 billion for share repurchases, and its equity yields a very healthy ~1.4% at the time of this writing.

Ferrari's Results Speak to Resilience in Ultra-Luxury Markets
Image: Ferrari raised its guidance for 2023. Ferrari raised its year-end guidance thanks in part to a strong product mix and improved revenue from racing activities, and the firm noted that its “order book remains at highest levels reflecting strong demand across all geographies, covering the entire 2025.” We couldn’t be happier with the performance at Ferrari, and the momentum speaks to continued strength across the ultra-luxury landscape. We like Ferrari as one of our favorite automakers, a name that we prefer much more than any of the Big 3 in Detroit.

Albemarle and ASML Holding Remain Key ESG-Focused Ideas
Two of the companies included in the simulated ESG Newsletter portfolio are Albemarle and ASML Holding. Recently, concerns over the supply/demand dynamics for lithium have hurt Albemarle’s stock, but we’re being patient with this ESG-focused idea. On October 18, ASML Holding reported decent third-quarter results. We think ASML is one of the most competitively advantaged players in the semiconductor space, and we won’t be removing it from the ESG Newsletter portfolio anytime soon.

Investors Likely Overreacting to Long-Run Impact That Weight-Loss Drugs Will Have on Snack and Food Stocks
Image: Domino’s stock has slumped recently due to weakening same-store sales expansion and concerns that weight-loss drugs will have on snack and food demand. The American eater continues to fight the “battle of the bulge” as many seek improved lifestyles and the health benefits from losing weight and getting in shape. The healthcare industry is delivering on this front, too, with diabetes drugs from Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly called GLP-1 agonists that also have weight-loss benefits. Though we applaud what looks to be a solution in part for the obesity epidemic that has overtaken the U.S., investors are growing concerned that food that snack and food stocks will see slackening demand.
