UBS Property Securities Fund: The fund which aims to outperform the S&P/ASX 300 Property Accumulation Index

Investment strategy 

The Fund uses a multi-step investment process for constructing the Fund’s investment portfolio that combines top-down sector allocation with bottom-up individual stock selection. Top-down sector allocation is determined through a systematic evaluation of listed and direct property market trends and conditions. Bottom-up stock selection is driven by proprietary analytical techniques to conduct fundamental company analysis, which provides a framework for security selection through an analysis of individual securities independently and relative to each other. Investment return objective The Fund aims to outperform (after management costs) the S&P/ASX 300 Property Accumulation Index over rolling three year periods.

Investment return objective 

The Fund aims to outperform (after management costs) the S&P/ASX 300 Property Accumulation Index over rolling three year periods.

 Downside Risks

  • Deterioration in the Australian economy especially the property market (fundamentals deteriorate). Rising bond yields negatively impacting pricing. 
  • The Portfolio Manager/analysts miss-calculate their bottom-up valuation 
  • Key person risks in Mr. Pica (however, the CBRE investment team is relatively large and capable of succession planning).

Investment Process

The Fund uses an investment process that combines in-depth top-down and bottom- up fundamental market research with a disciplined and systematic approach to portfolio construction and risk management. The Portfolio Manager’s bottom-up approach integrates both quantitative and qualitative research to identify individual securities where the real estate is undervalued and represents the most compelling investment opportunities. The securities research process incorporates several factors including: 

  • Property visits – the Portfolio Manager utilises its local presence to gauge the quality and location of the real estate, assessing properties and capital expenditure needs at the property level. 
  • Management meetings – the Portfolio Manager assesses the management team’s alignment with shareholders; determines the depth and experience of the team; and judges their ability to articulate and execute their strategy. 
  •  Modelling – the Portfolio Manager generates cash flow earnings projections; performs net asset value analysis; and analyses the capital structure. 

About the fund

The UBS Property Securities Fund (portfolio managed by CBRE while Distributed by UBS) is a portfolio of mainly Australian Real Estate Investment Trusts that the investment team believes are being undervalued by the market, based on the in-house assessment of the company’s future cashflows. The Fund aims to outperform (after management costs) the S&P/ASX 300 Property Accumulation Index over rolling five-year periods

Despite wobbles at the top, Bapcor’s core is expected to be positive

Business Strategy and Outlook:

Bapcor’s narrow economic moat is contingent not on the CEO, but rather its scale. Bapcor’s scale allows not only additional buying power, but also the ability to source an extensive range of inventory (over 500,000 SKUs, many of these slow-moving, for over 20,000 different vehicle types) and the flexibility to efficiently allocate inventory between stores. Smaller players, lacking this scale, will be unable to replicate Bapcor’s low cost position. 

Bapcor’s trade network’s extensive reach also means Bapcor is able to provide parts to more customers in a timelier manner than smaller competitors, often within the hour, even for slow-moving SKUs. Bapcor’s trade customers consist of principally chain and independent mechanic workshops. These businesses are relatively price inelastic, as costs are passed through to the end consumer, and these businesses instead value parts availability and convenience, allowing service bays to turn over quickly. The number of registered vehicles in Australia will grow at low single digits over the next decade, marginally outpacing population growth. There are currently more than 19 million passenger vehicles in Australia, with an average age of over 10 years, and more than 14 million older than five years– squarely in Bapcor’s target market.

Financial Strength:

While it is expected that the near-term earnings momentum may slow down, analysts anchor on the firm’s long-term fundamentals and defensive earnings. The dividend yield generated by the firm is also substantial.

The financial outlook for the firm remains unchanged. Bapcor has benefitted from elevated government stimulus and pent-up demand, boosting fiscal 2021 sales as consumers opt to maintain and improve their existing cars rather than upgrade to newer vehicles. Australian retail sales were the standout in fiscal 2021, with sales from the Autobarn and Autopro network up 26% compared with fiscal 2020. It is expected that much of the growth was discretionary, rather than maintenance expenditure–retail sales outperformed 16% sales growth in Bapcor’s maintenance focussed trade business.

Company Profile:

Bapcor is one of the largest automotive spare parts and accessories businesses in Australia and New Zealand. The firm principally distributes automotive spare parts and accessories to independent and chain mechanic workshops in Australia and New Zealand through Burson-branded stores. Bapcor also operates a retail automotive spare parts and accessories business in Australia, catering to the DIY customer, under the AutoPro and Autobarn brands. The specialist wholesale business is a brand owner and wholesaler of specialised parts.

Paychex Is Well Placed to Benefit From the Economic Recovery and a Complex Regulatory Landscape

Business Strategy and Outlook

Paychex’s offering appeals to businesses wishing to outsource mission-critical functions, manage and attract employees, and remain compliant with increasingly complex and evolving regulations. Paychex’s solutions span from do-it-yourself payroll with add-on human capital management modules to full-service HR outsourcing via an administrative services organization or professional employer organization model. The ASO and PEO solutions allow a business to outsource critical HR functions to Paychex, including payroll, compliance, and benefits administration, and access support from onsite HR professionals. The main difference between the two models is that under a PEO, Paychex enters a co-employment arrangement and acts as the employer of record for tax and insurance purposes. 

Financial Strength

Paychex is in a strong financial position. At the end of fiscal 2021, Paychex had a net cash position of over $300 million including restricted cash and total corporate investments. In fiscal 2019, the company issued $800 million of fixed-rate long-term debt to fund the $1.2 billion acquisition of PEO business Oasis. Paychex has returned nearly $7 billion of capital to shareholders during the eight years to fiscal 2021 primarily through dividends and to a lesser extent share repurchases. It is expected that  Paychex’s strong free cash flow generation will support an 80% dividend payout ratio over our forecast period. 

Paychex’s medium-term outlook due to resilient revenue retention and stronger demand for complementary HCM solutions than previously anticipated, underpinning our 4% fair value estimate increase to $110 per share. At current prices, Paychex’s shares screen as overvalued trading at a 21% premium to our updated fair value estimate. Management now expects fiscal 2022 adjusted EPS growth to be about 19%, from about 13% previously.

Bull Say’s

  • Paychex is well placed to benefit from increased regulatory complexity under a U.S. Democratic administration. 
  • Paychex benefits from high customer switching costs, a scale-based cost advantage, and strong brand assets and a referral network built over many decades. 
  • Paychex dominates the small-business outsourced payroll market with strong prospects of further market penetration.

Company Profile 

Paychex is a leading provider of payroll, human capital management, and insurance solutions servicing small and midsize clients primarily in the United States. The company, established in 1979, services over 710,000 clients and pays over 1 in 12 U.S. private-sector workers. Alongside its traditional payroll services, Paychex offers HCM solutions such as benefits administration and time and attendance software, as well as human resources outsourcing and insurance brokering.

General Mills’ Strong Brands Provide the Pricing Power Needed to Combat Inflationary Pressures

Business Strategy and Outlook

As at-home food consumption remains elevated during the pandemic, consumers are finding favor with General Mills’ offerings, as shown by increases in household penetration and repeat purchase rates in most categories. It is expected that this lift will largely be temporary, with consumers gradually returning to activities outside of the home, returning away-from-home food expenditures to half, as it was prior to the pandemic. But it is also expected that a lasting benefit for General Mills’ pet food business exist, given the high-single-digit increase in pet adoptions during the crisis.

General Mills has earned a narrow moat rating for its preferred status with retailers, strong brand equities, and cost edge. Due to evolving nutritional preferences, consumers have been shifting from processed fare to fresh, natural options, causing General Mills’ categories to slow. In response, the firm laid out its Accelerate strategy in 2021, which calls for the company to overhaul its marketing and innovation processes. Specifically, the firm will shift media investments to digital formats to better align with consumer media consumption, it will launch bolder innovations with a faster speed to market, it will be a force for good-with purpose-driven brands–and it will invest in data analytics (leveraging proprietary data from its Box Tops program and brand websites) to drive growth. Further, the firm will reshape its portfolio by divesting 5% of sales that dilute growth and will acquire growing businesses that strengthen its five global platforms (cereal, pet, ice cream, snack bars, Mexican) or its positioning in its eight core markets (U.S., Canada, France, U.K., Australia, China, Brazil, and India).

Financial Strength 

General Mills has generally maintained a net debt/adjusted EBITDA ratio of under 3 times, although the fiscal 2018 acquisition of Blue Buffalo increased the metric to 4.8 times. But in fiscal 2021, the firm reduced leverage to below 3 times, returning the firm to its pre-acquisition capital allocation priorities of 1) capital expenditures, 2) dividend growth, 3) strategic acquisitions, and 4) share repurchases. In September 2020, General Mills implemented its first dividend hike since the tie-up, in the spring of 2021 it resumed share repurchases, and in July it closed on its $1.2 billion acquisition of no-moat Tyson’s pet snacks business. General Mills generates a significant amount of free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expense), averaging 15% of sales over the past three years, generally in line with our 14% annual average over the next five years. 

Bulls Say 

  • General Mills’ pet food business should benefit from the high-single-digit increase in pet adoptions during the pandemic. Its BLUE brand has been growing rapidly, as on-trend innovations are resonating with consumers.
  • The firm is modernizing its brand-building capabilities, with shortened lead times for new product launches and advertising budgets that are shifting to digital formats where consumers are spending more time. 
  • General Mills’ well-developed Strategic Revenue Management and Holistic Margin Management programs should help the firm offset steep cost inflation.

Company Profile

General Mills is a leading global packaged food company that produces snacks, cereal, convenient meals, yogurt, dough, baking mixes and ingredients, pet food, and superpremium ice cream. Its largest brands are Nature Valley, Cheerios, Old El Paso, Yoplait, Pillsbury, Betty Crocker, BLUE, and Haagen-Dazs. In fiscal 2021, 75% of its revenue was derived from the United States, although the company also operates in Canada, Europe, Australia, Asia, and Latin America. While most of General Mills’ products are sold through retail stores to consumers, the company also sells products into the food-service channel and the commercial banking industry
