Despite commodity cost pressures and competition, Tootsie Roll's niche brand loyalty and sustainable payouts position it as a defensive dividend growth stock.
Tootsie Roll Industries has seen mixed financial performance, with revenue dropping but margins improving due to cost-cutting and higher pricing. Despite cheaper valuations, Tootsie Roll remains relatively pricey compared to peers, justifying a 'hold' rating. The company's net cash position and book value per share have grown, providing liquidity to weather current challenges.
Tootsie Roll is undervalued with a current P/E ratio of 22.2X, significantly below its historical averages, and a fair value estimate of $40.80. The company has iconic brands, a solid balance sheet with no long-term debt, and performs well during economic downturns. Tootsie Roll offers a 1.21% cash dividend yield and a 3% annual stock dividend, making it attractive for income and dividend growth investors.
