How We Identify Undervalued Stocks

When we say a stock is “undervalued,” we’re not guessing - we’re applying a set of proven, repeatable filters that help us pinpoint opportunities where income and growth align.

Here’s the first pillar of our process:

1. Dividend Yield Theory

A stock may be undervalued when its current dividend yield is meaningfully above its 5-year average.

Example:
A company yielding 5.29% today versus a 5-year average of 3.40% suggests the market is pricing it below fair value.

---

2. Attractive Valuation

We favor stocks with forward P/E ratios that sit meaningfully below their historical averages - a classic sign that the market may be undervaluing future earnings.

Example:
A forward P/E of 16.1x versus a 5-year average of 20.6x indicates the stock may be trading at a discount.

3. Dividend Safety (Score: 60+)

Dividends only matter if they’re built to last. That’s why we focus on companies with strong dividend safety scores - typically 60 or higher - to ensure their payouts are stable, well-covered, and sustainable over the long term.

4. Upside Potential (15%+)

Dividends are great - but growth matters too. We target stocks with at least 15% medium-term upside, giving us a balanced blend of reliable income and meaningful capital appreciation.

5. Strong Balance Sheets

Healthy financials are non-negotiable. We prioritise companies with Net Debt/EBITDA below 3x, and for REITs, a slightly higher threshold of below 5.5x.

This helps ensure they can manage debt responsibly, maintain flexibility, and continue funding growth without putting dividends at risk.
