Be Wary Of Burlington Stores (NYSE:BURL) And Its Returns On Capital

警惕伯靈頓百貨(紐約證券交易所代碼:BURL)及其資本回報率

There are a few key trends to look for if we want to identify the next multi-bagger. Typically, we'll want to notice a trend of growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and alongside that, an expanding base of capital employed. Put simply, these types of businesses are compounding machines, meaning they are continually reinvesting their earnings at ever-higher rates of return. However, after investigating Burlington Stores (NYSE:BURL), we don't think it's current trends fit the mold of a multi-bagger.

如果我們想確定下一個多功能裝袋機,有一些關鍵趨勢需要關注。通常,我們希望注意到增長的趨勢 返回 在資本使用率(ROCE)方面,除此之外,還在擴大 基礎 所用資本的比例。簡而言之,這些類型的企業是複合機器,這意味着他們不斷以更高的回報率對收益進行再投資。但是,在調查了伯靈頓百貨公司(紐約證券交易所代碼:BURL)之後,我們認爲目前的趨勢不符合多袋商的模式。

Understanding Return On Capital Employed (ROCE)

了解資本使用回報率 (ROCE)

If you haven't worked with ROCE before, it measures the 'return' (pre-tax profit) a company generates from capital employed in its business. The formula for this calculation on Burlington Stores is:

如果你以前沒有與ROCE合作過,它會衡量公司從其業務中使用的資本中產生的 “回報”(稅前利潤)。伯靈頓商店的計算公式爲:

Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities)

已動用資本回報率 = 息稅前收益 (EBIT) ¥(總資產-流動負債)

0.099 = US$563m ÷ (US$7.7b - US$2.0b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to February 2024).

0.099 = 5.63億美元 ÷(77億美元-20億美元) (基於截至2024年2月的過去十二個月)

So, Burlington Stores has an ROCE of 9.9%. Ultimately, that's a low return and it under-performs the Specialty Retail industry average of 13%.

因此,伯靈頓百貨的投資回報率爲9.9%。歸根結底,這是一個低迴報,其表現低於專業零售行業13%的平均水平。

What The Trend Of ROCE Can Tell Us

ROCE 的趨勢能告訴我們什麼

We weren't thrilled with the trend because Burlington Stores' ROCE has reduced by 69% over the last five years, while the business employed 207% more capital. However, some of the increase in capital employed could be attributed to the recent capital raising that's been completed prior to their latest reporting period, so keep that in mind when looking at the ROCE decrease. It's unlikely that all of the funds raised have been put to work yet, so as a consequence Burlington Stores might not have received a full period of earnings contribution from it.

我們對這一趨勢並不感到興奮,因爲伯靈頓商店的投資回報率在過去五年中下降了69%,而該業務使用的資本增加了207%。但是,動用資本的增加在一定程度上可能歸因於最近的融資是在其最新報告期之前完成的,因此在考慮投資回報率下降時請記住這一點。目前籌集的所有資金不太可能全部投入使用,因此,伯靈頓百貨可能沒有從中獲得完整的收益繳款。

On a side note, Burlington Stores has done well to pay down its current liabilities to 26% of total assets. That could partly explain why the ROCE has dropped. What's more, this can reduce some aspects of risk to the business because now the company's suppliers or short-term creditors are funding less of its operations. Some would claim this reduces the business' efficiency at generating ROCE since it is now funding more of the operations with its own money.

順便說一句,伯靈頓百貨在償還其流動負債至總資產的26%方面做得很好。這可以部分解釋投資回報率下降的原因。更重要的是,這可以降低業務風險的某些方面,因爲現在公司的供應商或短期債權人爲其運營提供的資金減少了。有人會聲稱這降低了企業產生投資回報率的效率,因爲該公司現在正在用自己的資金爲更多的業務提供資金。

The Key Takeaway

關鍵要點

In summary, despite lower returns in the short term, we're encouraged to see that Burlington Stores is reinvesting for growth and has higher sales as a result. These trends are starting to be recognized by investors since the stock has delivered a 29% gain to shareholders who've held over the last five years. So this stock may still be an appealing investment opportunity, if other fundamentals prove to be sound.

總而言之,儘管短期內回報率較低,但令我們感到鼓舞的是,伯靈頓百貨正在進行再投資以實現增長,因此銷售額有所增加。自從該股在過去五年中爲持股的股東帶來了29%的收益以來,這些趨勢已開始得到投資者的認可。因此,如果其他基本面被證明是合理的,那麼這隻股票可能仍然是一個有吸引力的投資機會。
