This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (1.7x net interest cover). Earnings have declined by 1.8% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (8.7% net profit margin).Buy Or Sell Opportunity • May 11Now 21% undervaluedThe stock has been flat over the last 90 days, currently trading at US$34.44.

The company’s Q4 results were impacted by project accounting, with a significant increase in costs due to the completion of Twinbrook Quarter Phase 1. High occupancy rates are offset by cost inflation and office space weakness, limiting the potential for same property growth and dividend increases. The large Saul family stake and lack of investor outreach hinder institutional demand, making meaningful multiple expansion unlikely; accordingly, shares are rated as a "hold."

New Risk • May 15New major risk - Revenue and earnings growthEarnings have declined by 1.8% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (1.7x net interest cover). Earnings have declined by 1.8% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (8.7% net profit margin).

Seeking Alpha • Mar 06Saul Centers: Mixed Q4 And DC Headwinds Limit UpsideSummary Saul Centers has underperformed over the past decade, with shares losing 35% and facing headwinds from federal government downsizing in the DC/Baltimore area. The company’s Q4 results were impacted by project accounting, with a significant increase in costs due to the completion of Twinbrook Quarter Phase 1. High occupancy rates are offset by cost inflation and office space weakness, limiting the potential for same property growth and dividend increases. The large Saul family stake and lack of investor outreach hinder institutional demand, making meaningful multiple expansion unlikely; accordingly, shares are rated as a "hold."

New Risk • Dec 09New minor risk - Shareholder dilutionThe company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 4.3% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.5x net interest cover). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 22% per year for the foreseeable future. Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (4.3% increase in shares outstanding).

New Risk • Aug 05New minor risk - Dividend sustainabilityThe dividend is not well covered by earnings. Payout ratio: 137% Dividend yield: 6.5% This is considered a minor risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings growth slows or earnings fall, then there may not be enough earnings to maintain the same dividend.

For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.4x net interest cover). Minor Risk Dividend is not well covered by earnings (137% payout ratio).
