SJM Holdings Ltd: Large Refi of Debt Buys Time for Grand Lisboa Palace to Prove Its US$3b Cost

By Howard J Klein

  • Legacy concessionaire SJM needs a strong performance from its Cotai flagship to create positive cash flow to service debt and keep gains in mass market share.
  • The company has closed 5 satellite casinos, a move that indicates a shift in strategic goals aimed at building out from its two IRs.
  • Thus far, SJM has not fully participated in the  early Macau recovery cycle to make it a BUY but it needs to build on its 81% of mass revenue.

Church & Dwight Co: Capacity Expansion Update & Other Drivers

By Baptista Research

  • Church & Dwight had a particularly robust Q1 as the company reported solid revenue growth of 10.2% and an all-around beat.
  • The management exceeded its Q1 outlook with organic sales increasing by 5.7%, driven by more robust performance across multiple brands, including Hero, THERABREATH, ARM & HAMMER laundry, and ARM & HAMMER litter.
  • With encouraging signs such as flat volume growth after a series of declines, the company’s team anticipates volume growth throughout the year.

Sirius XM Holdings Inc.: Launch Of Sports-Focused Social Channels & Other Developments

By Baptista Research

  • Sirius XM had a bad quarter and they failed to meet the revenue expectations as well as the earnings expectations of Wall Street.
  • Their launch of @SIRIUSXMSPORTS also enhances their social media presence and helps them to remain connected with subscribers and reach new audiences on Instagram.
  • We give Sirius XM Holdings a ‘Hold’ rating with a revised target price.
