Press Release Summary: SADIF-Investment Analytics SA has applied its StockMarks(tm) stock-rating system to Bombardier Inc and produced a research report, rating the company's attractiveness to long-term investors.
Press Release Body: Mira, Portugal - October 16, 2008 - SADIF Investment Analytics SA, today announced the release of a new equity research report covering Bombardier Inc (BBD.B). The report utilizes SADIF's powerful StockMarks(tm) stock rating system and is required reading for any current or potential Bombardier Inc investor.
Report Summary: Shares in Canadian aircraft and train producer Bombardier have experienced extremely high volatility over the past month. Investors are concerned about the effects that the ongoing credit crisis will have on airlines, and in turn, orders for new Bombardier aircraft. Even with oil tumbling to its lowest price in more than a year, uncertainty still overshadows the airline industry. Nevertheless, much of the investor fear is born out of speculation rather than fact. In the six months to July 31st, Bombardier reported a twenty-one percent rise in revenues and a seventy-one percent increase in EBIT before special items when compared to the same period a year earlier. Bombardier is able to partially offset any decline in its airline business with its growing locomotive operations. While the company's aerospace division reported a revenue increase of 13.6% during the quarter ended July 31st over the same period a year earlier, Bombardier's transportation division boosted revenues by a third. Despite the global economic slowdown, Bombardier grew very quickly over the past year. Does the stock's current price therefore deviate from the company's underlying fundamentals? In order to examine this question we should assess Bombardier's long-term fundamentals. We can do this through the use of the StockMarks framework. Bombardier currently has an overall long-term investment-attractiveness rating (Total StockMark or SMT) of 60, placing the company above the average of the Canadian market. This rating ranks Bombardier seventh when compared to ten of its closest peers, selected on the basis of similarity of business and market positioning factors such as size.
The complete report breaks down the Total StockMark into its three components - Business, Management and Price, performing a thorough analysis of Bombardier Inc for long-term investors.
