Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

MAS is one of the world's largest manufacturers of home improvement products, with brands like Delta and Peerless.  Recently reported earnings showed growing cash reserves as shares were bought back and debt retired.  We recommend setting a stop loss at $69, looking to achieve $94 -- upside potential of 18%.  Yield 1.4%

(Analysts’ price target is $82.60)

Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research

It looks decent to us; it is a cyclical business, but MAS has grown earnings nicely over the years. The balance sheet is a bit leveraged with debt at 2.5X cash flow, but cash flow is consistent, with high free cash flow conversion. At 16X earnings, it is priced reasonably well considering expected growth of 12% to 16% over the next few years. The 1.72% dividend has shown good growth. The last quarter was good as operating margins have improved with better cost control. The stock is up about 4-fold in the last decade. We would consider it 'good' but not 'great'. Its cyclicality and debt do add some risks here.

BUY
Masco Corp.
There is a severe housing shortage. A nice way to play housing this is in the repair side. Rising rates will prevent homeowners from moving into new homes and they will stay in place. So, this will drive home renovations. We need to add more supply to homes in the next 12-18 months, but until then there will be pressure on this space.

BUY
Masco Corp.
Think Behr paint and Delta faucets. The home repair market will continue, which is less sensitive to interest rate rises as the homebuilders. She loves the housing-adjacent trade.

JPMorgan just downgraded it 60% of Masco's sales come from plumbing, so how big can DIY demand be? It's only up 6% YTD. He likes it, but sees better upside elsewhere like Whirlpool.

JPMorgan downgraded it today. Masco traded near the high of today on a day of bad news. Whenever he sees this combination, the bad news doesn't matter and the stock looks like it wants to go higher.

Made a huge EPS beat today, but still sold off in today's massive slide. Home renos will flourish during this lockdown. They offer cabinets and faucets.

TOP PICK
Masco Corp.
Makes products that are used in home renovations and new house construction, which is a negative news back drop right now. This and the weak market have led to a 50% decline in the share price. This is a company that’s been around for 50 years and know how to manage the housing cycles. Yield of about 4% and have increased the dividend for 48 straight years.
