Yahoo Finance A Look At Prudential Financial Inc’s (NYSE:PRU) Exceptional Fundamentals
Building up an investment case requires looking at a stock holistically. Today I’ve chosen to put the spotlight on Prudential Financial Inc (NYSE:PRU) due to its excellent fundamentals in more than one area. PRU is a highly-regarded dividend payer that has been a rockstar for income investors, currently trading at an attractive share price. Below is a brief commentary on these key aspects. If you’re interested in understanding beyond my high-level commentary, read the full report on Prudential Financial here.
6 star dividend payer and good value
PRU is currently trading below its true value, which means the market is undervaluing the company’s expected cash flow going forward. This mispricing gives investors the opportunity to buy into the stock at a cheap price compared to the value they will be receiving, should analysts’ consensus forecast growth be correct. Also, relative to the rest of its peers with similar levels of earnings, PRU’s share price is trading below the group’s average. This supports the theory that PRU is potentially underpriced.
PRU’s reputation for being one of the best dividend payers in the market is supported by the fact that it has been steadily growing its dividend payments over the past ten years and currently is one of the top yielding companies on the markets, at 4.0%.
