Blackrock Smaller Companies Trust SWOT Analysis

Strengths

Blackrock Smaller Companies Trust PLC boasts a strong track record of delivering superior returns to its investors compared to its peers. The trust's investment strategy focuses on investing in small-cap companies with high growth potential, allowing it to capitalize on promising investment opportunities that larger funds might overlook.

The trust benefits from a well-established and experienced management team, which possesses deep knowledge of the small-cap market segment. This expertise enables them to identify and select companies with growth prospects, mitigating investment risks and maximizing returns for shareholders.

Weaknesses

One potential weakness of Blackrock Smaller Companies Trust PLC is its exposure to the inherent risks associated with investing primarily in small-cap companies. Such firms often face greater business uncertainties, liquidity challenges, and higher volatility than larger, more established companies.

Furthermore, because of its focus on small-cap investments, the trust may be more susceptible to economic downturns or market corrections, which can negatively impact the performance of smaller companies.

Opportunities

Blackrock Smaller Companies Trust PLC can capitalize on the potential opportunities arising from the growth and development of smaller companies. As smaller firms often have greater room for expansion, they may benefit from technological advancements, industry disruptions, and changing consumer preferences.

Additionally, the trust can leverage its expertise in identifying emerging trends and industry disruptors to invest in innovative and high-growth sectors, providing attractive returns to its shareholders.

Threats

One primary threat to Blackrock Smaller Companies Trust PLC is the increased competition in the small-cap investment space. As more investment funds and financial institutions focus on small-cap opportunities, it becomes more challenging to identify undervalued companies with significant growth potential.

Moreover, economic uncertainties, financial market fluctuations, and changes in government regulations can pose significant threats to the trust's investment portfolio, particularly in the small-cap segment where risks can be amplified.

Fair Value

ⓘ

Understanding Fair Value

The fair value of a stock provides insights into whether the stock is currently undervalued or overvalued. It is calculated based on profit, revenue, or dividends and offers a comprehensive perspective of the stock’s intrinsic value.

Income-Based Fair Value

This is calculated by multiplying the earnings per share by the average P/E ratio of the selected past years for smoothing. If the fair value is higher than the current market price, it suggests that the stock is undervalued.

Example 2022

Fair Value Profit 2022 = Earnings per Share 2022 / Average P/E Ratio 2019 - 2021 (3 Years Smoothing)

Revenue-Based Fair Value

It is derived by multiplying the revenue per share by the average price-to-sales ratio of the selected past years for smoothing. An undervalued stock is identified if the fair value exceeds the ongoing market price.

Example 2022

Fair Value Revenue 2022 = Revenue per Share 2022 / Average PSR 2019 - 2021 (3 Years Smoothing)

Dividend-Based Fair Value

This value is determined by dividing the dividend per share by the average dividend yield of the selected past years for smoothing. A higher fair value than the market price indicates an undervalued stock.

Example 2022

Fair Value Dividend 2022 = Dividend per Share 2022 * Average Dividend Yield 2019 - 2021 (3 Years Smoothing)
