The CEO has done a great job turning around this small-cap. Post-pandemic, engagement ring sales have picked up. They last reported softer than expected sales, though a revenue beat, but conservative guidance. Shares dropped 12%. Then, SIG announced a major share buyback and raised guidance. It trades under 10x PE this year.
SIG has over 2600 retail jewelry stores through North America and Europe. It trades 6x earnings, under 2x book value and supports a robust 32% ROE. Its dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 10% of cash flow. We recommend setting a stop-loss at $60, looking to achieve $97 -- upside potential of 28%. Yield 1.3%
(Analysts’ price target is $120.40)Our PAST TOP PICK with SIG has triggered its stop at $89. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time. Combined with our previous guidance, this will result in a net investment gain of 24%.
