1 Market IQ Understanding the Drivers of Shareholder Return Cary Helenius, Kevin Gomes & Graham Taylor
2 Producing superior Total Shareholder Returns (TSR)* is a major motivation for ASX listed companies: It is the main objective in setting strategic plans It should be the main motivation for M&A activity It is typically integral in setting remuneration rewards for executives Limited practical and objective information about the drivers of TSR has been available for boards and management The objective of our research was to bridge that information gap * Total Shareholder Return = Share price change and dividend yields 2
3 TSR is affected by a number of factors ( Ps & Qs ): Total Shareholder Return* Q's P's Quantitative Financials under company influence Price (short term) Perception Prospects 3
4 Management can drive a company s TSR over future periods by appropriately managing company financials Total Shareholder Return Q's P's Quantitative Financials under company influence Price (short term) Perception Prospects 4
5 We have explored the relationship between a company s reported financials and Relative TSR* 225 companies analysed 6 monthly data points over past 10 years = 67,500 data points We have only included ratios which were clear and objective measures, derived from the publicly released results and found a strong relationship for certain ratios * Relative TSR = TSR relative to the market average 5
6 Relative TSR For example, ROE is a strong driver of Relative TSR 10% ROE + 5% % 0% -5% - % -10% ROE (increasing --->) 6
7 Relative TSR Change in ROE is also a strong driver of Relative TSR Change in ROE + % 0% - % ROE one year prior (increasing --->) 7
8 Relative TSR Pre-GFC, optimal gearing was rewarded NDE pre GFC Optimal area + % 0% - % Net debt to equity (increasing --->) 8
9 Relative TSR whilst Post-GFC, the debt relationship changed 15% 10% + % NDE post GFC 5% 0% 0% -5% - % -10% Net debt to equity (increasing --->) 9
10 Relative TSR Relative TSR Price related measures clearly impact Relative TSR on a one way basis 15% 10% 10% 8% 6% 5% 0% -5% 2% 3% 4% 5% 6% 8% 10% 12% 4% 2% 0% -2% -4% % Dividend yield -6% PE (trailing) 10
11 0% 13% 38% 50% 63% 75% 88% 100% 113% Dividend yield but 2 way combinations provide additional insight Low payout high dividend yield is associated with outperformance 12% 10% 8% 6% 5% 4% High payout low dividend yield is associated with underperformance High Relative TSR Low Relative TSR 3% 2% 0% Payout Ratio 11
12 ROE (increasing --->) 2 way analysis also provides additional insight into ROE ROE vs Change in ROE High ROE and high positive change is associated with outperformance Low ROE and reduction in ROE is associated with underperformance Change in ROE (increasing --->) 12
13 Year on year change net debt to equity (increasing --->) 2 way analysis of gearing levels is also insightful The 2 way combination demonstrates enhanced performance areas when considering level of debt and changes in debt levels NDE pre GFC Relative TSR outperformance 'sweet spot' - optimal change in debt from an optimal level of debt Net debt to equity one year prior (increasing --->) 13
14 Year on year change net debt to equity (increasing --->) however, monitoring the factors is critical to detect market changes NDE post GFC The level and change of debt profile changed significantly post the GFC There are some recent signs that the market is becoming more comfortable with prudent levels of debt Net debt to equity one year prior (increasing --->) 14
15 Taken in combination, the financial ratios were used to model the Relative TSR Company Predicted Relative TSR Rank Predicted Relative TSR Quartile 1. aaa 17 1st a 2. bbb 205 4th 3. ccc 115 3rd 225. xyz 81 2nd Companies in the top quartile represent those with optimal mix of financial parameters across P&L, Cashflow and Balance Sheet with companies ranked and grouped into quartiles according to their predicted Relative TSR level 15
16 For purposes of our model, price related ratios were excluded Financial Ratio P&L Cashflow Balance Sheet Share Price ROE Change in ROE ROFE NPAT growth ROFE growth Net debt to equity Change in net debt to equity Net debt to total funds employed Net interest cover Pay out ratio Net cash flow to NPAT EPS growth Revenue growth Dividend Yield P/E Price related ratios excluded from our analysis on the basis that share price is not within management control Share price is an output rather than an input of financial performance. 16
17 Relative TSR As a group, top quartile companies strongly outperformed Average Relative TSR* by predicted quartile Top quartile strongly outperformed (~+9% p.a.) 10% 8% 6% Bottom quartile strongly underperformed (~-7% p.a.) 4% 2% 61% of companies outperform over following 12 months 0% -2% -4% -6% 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 60% of companies underperform over following 12 months -8% while bottom quartile companies strongly underperformed *Refers to actual Relative TSR recorded over the 12 months following the balance date 17
18 In summary, our research has some important implications Company management can influence TSR outcomes through appropriate financial management The reported financials can impact on Relative TSR immediately and endure for the following 12 months A significant proportion of Relative TSR performance is attributable to factors independent of share price Whilst 1 way analysis of financial ratios provides useful guidance on Relative TSR, 2 way analysis provides significantly greater insights 18
19 with a range of potential applications An objective framework for assessing management performance and setting executive remuneration rewards - based on factors which are within management control and independent of share price Allows companies to identify their optimal financial settings (e.g. optimal levels of debt, dividend payout ratios etc.), with ability to factor in financial constraints Used to explore strategic financial objectives for their relevance as Relative TSR drivers and to to test various strategic alternatives for their impact on predicted Relative TSR ranking Identify gaps between predicted and actual Relative TSR performance, prompting further investigation of possible causes 19
