Equity Bottom-Up

Dismal Stock Performance in 2017 and Since 2012<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/782" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:782:1">General Electric Co (GE US)</a> (“GE” or “company”) had a terrible 2017, with the stock providing a total return of -42.1%, compared to the S&amp;P 500 Index (“S&amp;P”) at 21.8%. Moreover, the company’s streak of dividend growth after the financial crises was interrupted with the dividend for 2018 slashed in half to an annualised rate of $0.48 per share, pushing it back down to 1999 levels. The management of GE is struggling with a conglomerate operating in multiple business segments, that possess neither technology nor market synergy. We expect continued under-performance in 2018 as well.We do not expect EBITDA to grow from current levels given multiple headwinds in approximately 50% of GE’s revenue base. We expect any gains in costs to be competed away in an over-supplied market for industrial infrastructure. Higher rates will compress EV/EBITDA multiples going forward.  Current valuation of GE does not reflect that eventuality yet. Compressed multiples could easily result in a single digit stock price for GE in the second half of 2018. Currently GE is priced for perfection, although it has proven to be a mere mortal since the financial crises. Simplistic bench-marking to industry peers appears to suggest a fully valued stock price, while ignoring myriad GE specific challenges such as accounting, governance, corporate control over reporting &amp; auditing, and declining product end-market. If, what's past is prologue then the company's accounting has set it up for more downside going forward. Stay tuned.
