SWK pays a yield of 4.0% but is not expected to grow its sales this year and profitability is anticipated to resume next year. Its debt levels are somewhat elevated but have been declining over the past few years. Its balance sheet has dropped significantly from 2021, where it had an equity position of $11.6B, to an equity position today of $9.5B. The company's earnings fell in 2022, leading to large negative free cash flows for the year. It trades at a high valuation of 34.8X forward P/E, but its share price has been consolidating around the ~$80 range. We feel that it may not do much for the next few quarters, but it does have a long history of profitability and returning value to shareholders, and we would be comfortable with the name while being mindful of its current risks.
