TOP PICK

H. J. Heinz Co.(HNZ)

Aug 01, 2012

Very attractive dividend at 3.7%. Has a varied and well balanced emerging-market exposure, which accounts for about a 5th of the business. Expect there will be a nice rebound in the business as US restaurant business picks up when the economy stabilizes and recovers in the next couple of years.

COMMENT

H. J. Heinz Co.(HNZ)

Jun 20, 2012
Well-run company. During these tougher periods, they have concentrated on the lower price point products. They pay a very fine dividend 3.8%, which probably represents 40% of their total cash flows. Relatively slow grower.

COMMENT

H. J. Heinz Co.(HNZ)

Feb 22, 2012
Well run and the 3.6% dividend is pretty respectable. If you are an income oriented investor, this is a good one. They have never been able to grow revenue past the rate of inflation increase. Have been struggling with food costs inflation and transportation problems. Good value and a pretty decent balance sheet but there is not a great deal of growth opportunity.

Just reported with some negative news. Consumers staples type companies tend to be more defensive in nature and in times like this they get more expensive. Probably trading around 16-17 times earnings and probably just growing in single digits so not attractive.

This is in the right spot for this kind of market. Consumer staples is a group that tends to hold up well in a bear market. One of the risks for the food industry is food inflation and the costs of the goods. They are getting through this pretty well so far.

Current tomato scare is in unprocessed tomatoes. This company processes by cooking. Agriculture in general is very strong. Very well positioned to profit going forward.

Difficult story as a buy these days. Have some issues with one person trying to get on the board and that will be known September 15. This may create a little bit of upside.

Has been a lousy performer. Consumer staples, like food and beverage stocks, are usually regarded as defensive. Decent yield at 3.5% but it's not enough to get people excited. Have had cost pressures.

Has gone nowhere over the last year. Boring consistancy is attractive, but as a result of their failing to move much they've been left behind. Looking reasonably attractive at high teen multiples. Dividend at 2/3%. There have been cost pressures, such as fuel, steel for cans, etc. and they are cutting expenses.
