Q: Your general thoughts on this company in general and is this a buying opportunity at under$40 Thanks
5i Research Answer:
We think TSU is one of the under-the-radar insurance names that possesses both a decent track record of maintaining healthy underwriting discipline and is well-managed. TSU retains most of its earnings for future growth - if the company can grow profitably by underwriting policies conservatively, we would not be surprised if TSU becomes a long-term compounder. The company is trading at 2.5x Price/Book, which we think is a fair valuation for an insurance company with healthy profit margins, and a consistent ROE above 15%.
