MYL - Embedded Expectations Analysis - 2018 05 23

Mylan N.V. (MYL:USA) currently trades well below corporate averages relative to UAFRS-based (Uniform) Earnings, with a 10.2x Uniform P/E. At these levels, the market is pricing in fairly bearish expectations for the firm, which likely supports longer-term outperformance should MYL just maintain profitability at analyst-projected levels despite management's negative sentiment

Specifically, management may be exaggerating their expectation for Advair to be
AB-rated, given their concerns regarding the science of the drug, and may be concerned about their Glatiramer launch in Europe throughout the remainder of 2018. Additionally, they may lack confidence in the sustainability of increased Copaxone conversion as a result of the tender market in Europe, and may also lack confidence in the sustainability of year-over-year growth at current levels in their ARV business. That said, market expectations are for Uniform ROA to fall to levels not seen since 2007. At these valuations, should the firm maintain Uniform ROA at current levels, equity upside is likely warranted

In 2009, just as the dust was settling from the last major equity and credit market crises, we launched a boutique research firm with the intention of breaking Wall Street’s biases and broken incentives:

  • GAAP and IFRS have failed to provide rules for reliable financial statement reporting
  • Stock analyst recommendations are not grounded in disciplined financial analysis
  • Credit agencies have been set up to grossly fail in their responsibilities to investors and the public markets
  • Utter lack of willingness of major research firms to employ the the most advanced forensic analysis available

We sought to provide investors and company analysts with a source of information that changed all that.
Many years later, our business model remains because little has changed on Wall Street.

  • Corporate credit ratings remain years behind the fundamental underpinnings of company performance
  • Stock analysts continue to make recommendations with deeply inherent biases
  • Research firms have failed to break down the walls between credit, equity, and macroeconomic research
  • The governing accounting bodies have created more leeway for mis-estimates and mis-classifications as financials have become unwieldy and overwhelming

The integrity of Valens Research is founded in our disciplined processes and analytics. No “star” analysts. No corporate advisory relationships. No-nonsense opinions and recommendations.
