Tips Industries Limited's (NSE:TIPSINDLTD) Stock's On An Uptrend: Are Strong Financials Guiding The Market?
Tips Industries' (NSE:TIPSINDLTD) stock is up by a considerable 65% over the past three months. Given that the market rewards strong financials in the long-term, we wonder if that is the case in this instance. In this article, we decided to focus on Tips Industries' ROE.
Return on Equity or ROE is a test of how effectively a company is growing its value and managing investors’ money. Simply put, it is used to assess the profitability of a company in relation to its equity capital.
Check out our latest analysis for Tips Industries
How To Calculate Return On Equity?
The formula for return on equity is:
Return on Equity = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders' Equity
So, based on the above formula, the ROE for Tips Industries is:
36% = ₹256m ÷ ₹706m (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2020).
The 'return' is the income the business earned over the last year. That means that for every ₹1 worth of shareholders' equity, the company generated ₹0.36 in profit.
What Is The Relationship Between ROE And Earnings Growth?
So far, we've learned that ROE is a measure of a company's profitability. We now need to evaluate how much profit the company reinvests or "retains" for future growth which then gives us an idea about the growth potential of the company. Generally speaking, other things being equal, firms with a high return on equity and profit retention, have a higher growth rate than firms that don’t share these attributes.
Tips Industries' Earnings Growth And 36% ROE
Firstly, we acknowledge that Tips Industries has a significantly high ROE. Second, a comparison with the average ROE reported by the industry of 8.5% also doesn't go unnoticed by us. As a result, Tips Industries' exceptional 52% net income growth seen over the past five years, doesn't come as a surprise.
As a next step, we compared Tips Industries' net income growth with the industry, and pleasingly, we found that the growth seen by the company is higher than the average industry growth of 27%.
Earnings growth is an important metric to consider when valuing a stock. What investors need to determine next is if the expected earnings growth, or the lack of it, is already built into the share price. Doing so will help them establish if the stock's future looks promising or ominous. One good indicator of expected earnings growth is the P/E ratio which determines the price the market is willing to pay for a stock based on its earnings prospects. So, you may want to check if Tips Industries is trading on a high P/E or a low P/E, relative to its industry.
Is Tips Industries Making Efficient Use Of Its Profits?
Tips Industries' three-year median payout ratio is a pretty moderate 32%, meaning the company retains 68% of its income. By the looks of it, the dividend is well covered and Tips Industries is reinvesting its profits efficiently as evidenced by its exceptional growth which we discussed above.
Besides, Tips Industries has been paying dividends for at least ten years or more. This shows that the company is committed to sharing profits with its shareholders.
Summary
On the whole, we feel that Tips Industries' performance has been quite good. Particularly, we like that the company is reinvesting heavily into its business, and at a high rate of return. Unsurprisingly, this has led to an impressive earnings growth. If the company continues to grow its earnings the way it has, that could have a positive impact on its share price given how earnings per share influence long-term share prices. Remember, the price of a stock is also dependent on the perceived risk. Therefore investors must keep themselves informed about the risks involved before investing in any company.
