Terry Smith on Investing for Growth! Compounding with Great Companies

Рет қаралды 18,362

Күн бұрын

I have been diving deep into the investment framework of Terry Smith, founder of Fundsmith.
His approach is simple...
1. Buy good companies (ROCE & Gross Margin)
2. Don't overpay (FCF yield)
3. Do nothing (patience)
Do not confuse simple with easy. In this video I share many insights from both Terry Smith's book Investing for Growth along with the last 3 Fundsmith annual meetings which are available on KZfaq.
I also do a quick and dirty analysis of his 4 most recent stock buys: Nike, Starbucks, LVMH, and Church & Dwight.
What insights have you gleaned from Terry Smith?

Hey Brad. Finally, you talk about Terry Smith. I've asked about him one year ago or so, but I guess he is not well known in the States and now that Mohnish Pabrai has talked about him there are few Americans who noticed the "English Warren Buffett". 😉

LVMH has a huge amount of goodwill and intangibles. I'd suggest removing Goodwill and Other intangibles from the Capital Employed calculation, which would give you Tangible Capital Employed. That's how Buffett analysis companies.

@karamsulaiman6605 2 жыл бұрын

I would remove the goodwill and intangibles if I wanted to know how much they make on tangible capital employed as you said. But it's worth noting that I think you should include it as it's not like you created the return (net profit or operating profits) from all those assets from scratch, if you did then that would make sense, if you acquired companies then you need to consider the return on the amount you paid as part of the aggregate calculation of return on invested capital. That's the way I view it anyways.

What are your thoughts on smith's opinion on alibaba and tencent?

@vidya014 Жыл бұрын

Net Income / Invested Capital without deducting excess cashes and goodwill is the best ratio.

@karamsulaiman6605 2 жыл бұрын

That’s strange in regards to the return on capital for Alibaba. I will look into that! I did some economic analysis for return on invested capital (different then the typical version, my version, change in operating cashflow divided CapEx + acquisitions over that period) and I got both Tencent and Alibaba at 60%… So that’s strange!

@karamsulaiman6605 2 жыл бұрын

I believe that the return on invested capital (Net Operating Profits after Tax)/(Assets - Marketable Securities and Debt) is equal to 27.03% for Alibaba based on 2021 annual report end of year results.

Thanks for the video. Interesting how critical he is about investing in China equities but invests heavily on companies that rely massively on sales in China / sales to Chinese costumers like Starbucks and LVMH. Would love to see his explanation why risks in his opinion is so much lower in foreign companies that rely on China than for Chinese companies.

@MrPinoCavallo 2 жыл бұрын

I guess because these global brands don't rely solely on China. Moreover, they are not controlled by the Chinese government, unlike the Chinese companies.

@marxenbrothers 2 жыл бұрын

@@MrPinoCavallo back of the envelope calc: Starbucks has 33,000 stores, 16500 of which they own directly. In China, Starbucks has 5100 stores. They own all of these directly. In other words, one third of the owned stores are in China. Plus: out of a net 1100 new store additions, 600 are in China. Roughly speaking 20-30% of business is China business and probably more investment / value than that. Whoever invests in Starbucks at the current, elevated multiples has the view that there shouldn’t be a discount for that 30% of Starbucks. Reason you mention is that Starbucks in China would be able to either circumvent regulations or that the China subsidiary would not be subject to the same regulation or that regulation in China is not as strict as discussed in western media, but that reason was ruled out by Terry Smith. So I am curious about the logic behind it.

It's obvious isn't it? Because he actually owns Starbucks. It's right there in the quote.

@kendallluelf3720 2 жыл бұрын

This is is why intel > micron. Also, you can’t always assume that EBIT = operating income and in the case of BABA, it certainly doesn’t. EBIT is calculated bottom up while operating margin is top down and because of this their ROCE is around 13% versus 7.8% using operating income.

@matthewhammond859 2 жыл бұрын

Can you explain more simply what you're trying to say about baba

@kendallluelf3720 2 жыл бұрын

@@matthewhammond859 nothing specifically about BABA, just a general statement that using operating income instead of EBIT isn’t always accurate, especially with businesses as complex as Alibaba. In the case with BABA, there is income being recognized by the company outside of their operating income which isn’t accounted for when using operating income for the ROCE calculation. While it is more conservative in this instance to use operating income, BABA does consistently have material income being generated outside of their core business. Whether it be from currency exchange, investments in their subsidiaries, government grants, or royalties from Ant Group - it really shouldn’t be ignored as it amounts to a significant amount of their net income on a continual basis.

Not sure this myopic focus on margins is wise. Look at for example costco, capping margins serves as a moat.

The thing people don't get about amazon is that economies of scale. Nick sleep model of amazon. Terry smith doesn't get it. Cost of delivering one item to a place may be $10 but cost of delivering 20 items to the same place at the same time is not $200. That's economy of scale.
