ICF International's (NASDAQ:ICFI) Investors Will Be Pleased With Their Stellar 104% Return Over the Last Five Years

If you want to compound wealth in the stock market, you can do so by buying an index fund. But the truth is, you can make significant gains if you buy good quality businesses at the right price. For example, the ICF International, Inc. (NASDAQ:ICFI) share price is 98% higher than it was five years ago, which is more than the market average. We're also happy to report the stock is up a healthy 29% in the last year.

如果你想在股票市場上增加財富,你可以通過購買指數基金來實現。但事實是,如果你以合適的價格購買高質量的企業,你可以獲得可觀的收益。例如,ICF國際公司(納斯達克股票代碼:ICFI)的股價比五年前高出98%,高於市場平均水平。我們還高興地報告,該股去年上漲了29%。

Let's take a look at the underlying fundamentals over the longer term, and see if they've been consistent with shareholders returns.

讓我們來看看長期的基本面,看看它們是否與股東的回報一致。

To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price.

引用巴菲特的話說:“船隻將在世界各地航行,但Flat Earth Society將蓬勃發展。市場上的價格和價值之間將繼續存在巨大差異...”評估公司情緒變化的一種有缺陷但合理的方法是將每股收益(EPS)與股價進行比較。

During five years of share price growth, ICF International achieved compound earnings per share (EPS) growth of 7.9% per year. This EPS growth is lower than the 15% average annual increase in the share price. This suggests that market participants hold the company in higher regard, these days. That's not necessarily surprising considering the five-year track record of earnings growth.

在五年的股價增長中,ICF International實現了每年7.9%的複合每股收益(EPS)增長。每股收益的增長低於股價平均年增長15%。這表明,如今,市場參與者對公司的重視程度更高。考慮到五年的收益增長記錄,這並不一定令人驚訝。

What About Dividends?

分紅呢?

When looking at investment returns, it is important to consider the difference between total shareholder return (TSR) and share price return. The TSR is a return calculation that accounts for the value of cash dividends (assuming that any dividend received was reinvested) and the calculated value of any discounted capital raisings and spin-offs. Arguably, the TSR gives a more comprehensive picture of the return generated by a stock. In the case of ICF International, it has a TSR of 104% for the last 5 years. That exceeds its share price return that we previously mentioned. The dividends paid by the company have thusly boosted the total shareholder return.

在考慮投資回報時,重要的是要考慮兩者之間的區別 股東總回報 (TSR) 和 股價回報。股東總回報率是一種回報計算方法,它考慮了現金分紅的價值(假設收到的任何股息都經過再投資)以及任何貼現資本籌集和分拆的計算價值。可以說,股東總回報率更全面地描述了股票產生的回報。就ICF國際而言,在過去的5年中,其股東總回報率爲104%。這超過了我們之前提到的其股價回報率。因此,該公司支付的股息提高了 股東回報。

A Different Perspective

不同的視角

ICF International provided a TSR of 29% over the year (including dividends). That's fairly close to the broader market return. That gain looks pretty satisfying, and it is even better than the five-year TSR of 15% per year. Even if the share price growth slows down from here, there's a good chance that this is business worth watching in the long term. While it is well worth considering the different impacts that market conditions can have on the share price, there are other factors that are even more important. Consider risks, for instance. Every company has them, and we've spotted 1 warning sign for ICF International you should know about.

ICF International全年股東回報率爲29%(包括股息)。這相當接近更廣泛的市場回報。這種增長看起來相當令人滿意,甚至比每年15%的五年股東總回報率還要好。即使股價增長從現在開始放緩,從長遠來看,這很可能是值得關注的業務。儘管市場狀況可能對股價產生的不同影響值得考慮,但還有其他因素更爲重要。例如,考慮風險。每家公司都有它們,我們發現了一個你應該知道的ICF International警告標誌。
