As an investor, I look for investments which does not compromise one fundamental factor for another. By this I mean, I look at stocks holistically, from their financial health to their future outlook. In the case of Indofood Agri Resources Ltd (SGX:5JS), it is a dependable dividend payer with an optimistic growth outlook, not yet reflected in the share price. Below is a brief commentary on these key aspects. For those interested in understanding where the figures come from and want to see the analysis, take a look at the report on Indofood Agri Resources here.

Good value with reasonable growth potential and pays a dividend

5JS’s shares are now trading at a price below its true value based on its discounted cash flows, indicating a relatively pessimistic market sentiment. Investors have the opportunity to buy into the stock to reap capital gains, if 5JS’s projected earnings trajectory does follow analyst consensus growth, which determines my intrinsic value of the company. Also, relative to the rest of 5JS’s peers, it is also trading at a value below those of similar sizes in asset terms. This supports the theory that 5JS is potentially underpriced.

5JS is considered one of the top dividend payers in the market, and its profitability ensures that dividends are well-covered by its net income.
