EMR has a total return of 33% over the last year and forward price-to-earnings ratio is decent, however not low at 20.8x. EMR also pays a small yield of 1.84%. Revenue growth has been modest over the last few years, however, margins have expanded nicely and most recent earnings were very strong. The balance sheet also looks OK with plenty of cash despite highly leveraged. We think EMR is a good name and forecasts predict a strong 2024. It appears to be quite a stable business, generating high cash flows and returns capital to shareholders well through the dividend and buybacks.

They provide power distribution and power generation to data centers, any sort of environment that needs un-interruptible power sources. Good management. Increases their dividends every year.
