Highlights
The presenter is short shares of Snap-On (SNA) on the basis that lenient policies with regard to accounting for late payments, and allowing franchisees to have decision making power on loans could negatively impact the company in the near- to mid-term. The presenter cites reports that franchisees have been known to make payments on behalf of customers in order to retain platinum status, which gives them the authority to overrule decisions made by corporate about the creditworthiness of customers. Additionally, while the company made a strong push selling expensive toolbox storage units from 2012 until 2016, these sales have been flat to down for roughly the past year and a half, and the presenter expects that trend to become more severe. On a FCF basis, which represents 45% - 50% of net income, the presenter is forecasting $5.90/share in 2019 vs. Street estimates of $11.80(per share). At its current 15x multiple, which the presenter feels is generous, the stock could trade down to $88 (50% downside risk).
