Here's Why J. M. Smucker (NYSE:SJM) Has A Meaningful Debt Burden
Here's Why J. M. Smucker (NYSE:SJM) Has A Meaningful Debt Burden
Howard Marks put it nicely when he said that, rather than worrying about share price volatility, 'The possibility of permanent loss is the risk I worry about... and every practical investor I know worries about.' So it seems the smart money knows that debt - which is usually involved in bankruptcies - is a very important factor, when you assess how risky a company is. Importantly, The J. M. Smucker Company (NYSE:SJM) does carry debt. But should shareholders be worried about its use of debt?
Why Does Debt Bring Risk?
Debt assists a business until the business has trouble paying it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. In the worst case scenario, a company can go bankrupt if it cannot pay its creditors. However, a more usual (but still expensive) situation is where a company must dilute shareholders at a cheap share price simply to get debt under control. Of course, debt can be an important tool in businesses, particularly capital heavy businesses. The first step when considering a company's debt levels is to consider its cash and debt together.

How Much Debt Does J. M. Smucker Carry?
The chart below, which you can click on for greater detail, shows that J. M. Smucker had US$4.70b in debt in July 2022; about the same as the year before. However, it also had US$151.6m in cash, and so its net debt is US$4.55b.
NYSE:SJM Debt to Equity History September 24th 2022How Healthy Is J. M. Smucker's Balance Sheet?
The latest balance sheet data shows that J. M. Smucker had liabilities of US$2.18b due within a year, and liabilities of US$5.96b falling due after that. Offsetting this, it had US$151.6m in cash and US$605.0m in receivables that were due within 12 months. So it has liabilities totalling US$7.38b more than its cash and near-term receivables, combined.
While this might seem like a lot, it is not so bad since J. M. Smucker has a huge market capitalization of US$15.0b, and so it could probably strengthen its balance sheet by raising capital if it needed to. But we definitely want to keep our eyes open to indications that its debt is bringing too much risk.
In order to size up a company's debt relative to its earnings, we calculate its net debt divided by its earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and its earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) divided by its interest expense (its interest cover). This way, we consider both the absolute quantum of the debt, as well as the interest rates paid on it.
J. M. Smucker has a debt to EBITDA ratio of 2.9 and its EBIT covered its interest expense 7.0 times. This suggests that while the debt levels are significant, we'd stop short of calling them problematic. The bad news is that J. M. Smucker saw its EBIT decline by 14% over the last year. If that sort of decline is not arrested, then the managing its debt will be harder than selling broccoli flavoured ice-cream for a premium. When analysing debt levels, the balance sheet is the obvious place to start. But it is future earnings, more than anything, that will determine J. M. Smucker's ability to maintain a healthy balance sheet going forward. So if you want to see what the professionals think, you might find this free report on analyst profit forecasts to be interesting.
But our final consideration is also important, because a company cannot pay debt with paper profits; it needs cold hard cash. So we always check how much of that EBIT is translated into free cash flow. During the last three years, J. M. Smucker produced sturdy free cash flow equating to 72% of its EBIT, about what we'd expect. This free cash flow puts the company in a good position to pay down debt, when appropriate.
Our View
Neither J. M. Smucker's ability to grow its EBIT nor its net debt to EBITDA gave us confidence in its ability to take on more debt. But its conversion of EBIT to free cash flow tells a very different story, and suggests some resilience. We think that J. M. Smucker's debt does make it a bit risky, after considering the aforementioned data points together. That's not necessarily a bad thing, since leverage can boost returns on equity, but it is something to be aware of. The balance sheet is clearly the area to focus on when you are analysing debt. However, not all investment risk resides within the balance sheet - far from it. Be aware that J. M. Smucker is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis , you should know about...
When all is said and done, sometimes its easier to focus on companies that don't even need debt. Readers can access a list of growth stocks with zero net debt 100% free, right now.

馬克斯説得很好,他不是擔心股價波動,而是我擔心的是永久虧損的可能性……我認識的每個實際投資者都擔心。因此,當你評估一家公司的風險有多大時,聰明的投資者似乎知道債務--通常涉及破產--是一個非常重要的因素。重要的是J·M·斯莫克公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:SJM)確實揹負着債務。但股東是否應該擔心它的債務使用情況?
為什麼債務會帶來風險?
債務幫助企業,直到企業難以償還債務,無論是用新資本還是用自由現金流。在最糟糕的情況下,如果一家公司無法償還債權人的債務,它可能會破產。然而,一種更常見(但仍然昂貴)的情況是,一家公司必須以低廉的股價稀釋股東的股份,才能控制債務。當然,在企業中,債務可以是一個重要的工具,特別是資本密集型企業。在考慮一家公司的債務水平時,第一步是同時考慮其現金和債務。
請看我們對J.M.斯莫克的最新分析
J·M·斯莫克揹負着多少債務?
下面的圖表顯示,截至2022年7月,J·M·斯莫克的債務為47億美元;與前一年大致相同。然而,它也有1.516億美元的現金,因此其淨債務為45.5億美元。
紐約證券交易所:澳博債轉股歷史2022年9月24日J·M·斯莫克的資產負債表有多健康?
最新的資產負債表數據顯示,J.M.斯莫克有21.8億美元的負債在一年內到期,59.6億美元的負債在一年後到期。作為抵消,它有1.516億美元的現金和6.05億美元的應收賬款在12個月內到期。因此,它的負債總額比現金和近期應收賬款加起來還要多73.8億美元。
雖然這看起來可能很多,但並不是那麼糟糕,因為J.M.Smacker擁有150億美元的鉅額市值,因此如果需要的話,它可能會通過籌集資本來加強其資產負債表。但我們肯定希望密切關注其債務帶來太大風險的跡象。
為了評估一家公司的債務相對於它的收益,我們計算它的淨債務除以它的利息、税項、折舊和攤銷前收益(EBITDA)和它的利息和税前收益(EBIT)除以它的利息支出(它的利息覆蓋)。這樣,我們既考慮了債務的絕對量,也考慮了為其支付的利率。
J.M.斯莫克的債務與EBITDA之比為2.9,其EBIT覆蓋了利息支出的7.0倍。這表明,儘管債務水平很高,但我們不會説它們有問題。壞消息是,J.M.斯莫克去年的息税前利潤下降了14%。如果這種下降得不到遏制,那麼管理其債務將比溢價銷售西蘭花口味的冰淇淋更難。在分析債務水平時,資產負債表顯然是一個起點。但最重要的是,未來的收益將決定J·M·斯莫克未來能否保持健康的資產負債表。因此,如果你想看看專業人士的想法,你可能會發現這份關於分析師利潤預測的免費報告很有趣。
但我們的最後考慮也很重要,因為一家公司不能用賬面利潤來償還債務;它需要冷硬現金。因此,我們總是檢查EBIT中有多少轉化為自由現金流。在過去的三年裏,J.M.斯莫克產生了相當於其息税前利潤72%的強勁自由現金流,這與我們的預期不謀而合。這種自由現金流使公司在適當的時候處於償還債務的有利地位。
我們的觀點
無論是J.M.斯莫克擴大息税前利潤的能力,還是其淨債務與EBITDA之比,都沒有讓我們對其承擔更多債務的能力產生信心。但它將息税前利潤轉換為自由現金流的情況則截然不同,並表明它具有一定的韌性。綜合考慮上述數據點,我們認為J.M.斯莫克的債務確實使其具有一定的風險。這不一定是一件壞事,因為槓桿可以提高股本回報率,但這是需要注意的。當你分析債務時,資產負債表顯然是你關注的領域。然而,並非所有投資風險都存在於資產負債表中--遠非如此。請注意J.M.斯莫克正在展示我們的投資分析中的2個警告信號,你應該知道關於……
