Today’s Quick Pick is Autoliv Inc (ALV). Autoliv makes auto safety equipment from seatbelts to newer products such as driver assistance and lane keep. They have a 45% global share of the global auto safety market with growing penetration in China. (China is now about 22% of sales). With a 40% market share in China, the company has room to grow, especially as China exports more and more vehicles. As Chinese car exports grow, so too will Autoliv’s sales of safety products. Chinse cars for the domestic market include 2-3 Autoliv products. Cars for the export market include 4-5. Autoliv just announced earnings on April 25 which beat estimates by about 18% with about a 70-80% increase in earnings year over year. Morningstar calls the stock fairly valued, I think that’s an underestimate. The price to sales on the stock is currently at 0.97 and the trailing 12-month PE is 19.17, and the forward EPS is at 13. The shares also offer a 2.1% dividend yield with a buyback yield of 4.7%. Free cash flow is rising (up $170 million last year) even while the company is investing more in China, India, and Vietnam. Autoliv has also shown a solid increase in operating margin in the most recent quarter from 5.17% to 7.4% and management is hoping to drive that up to 10%. I’m adding the shares to my Jubak’s Picks Portfolio.
