Company equipment companies are generally not considered exciting. Sharkninja, which was just going to the stock exchange in mid -2023, has followed an aggressive approach that tries to disturb the industry.
In each category, Sharkninja always strives for five-star products that were developed with deep inputs at customer pain points and perspectives that have the potential to create intensive brand loyalty and become viral. Sharkninja then puts his intensive marketing research on his 1,000 cross -functional engineers and designers in order to build the product with the highest quality in order to solve these problems. The company does not describe itself as a consumer goods company as a “problem -solving engine”.
This engine can be applied to a number of household goods and products. While the Shark brand started in vacuum cleaners and Ninja began mixing, Sharkninja has since expanded 36 subcategories in terms of cleaning products, cooking and beverage products, food preparation and beauty products.
The consistent innovation of existing products and the determination of entering new product categories every year has enabled average sales growth of 21% since 2008.
While Sharkninja has an impressive story, the stock sold this year by announcing the tariffs of the Trump government. At first glance, this seems to be a death for the company because it has a large part of its production in China. While Sharkninja has diversified outside of China in recent years, it still has many operations there. It has only expanded to other inexpensive countries in Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam.
Despite all of this, Sharkninja achieved sales growth of 14.7% in the first quarter and not only increased his instructions for sales, which is now growing by 12% this year, but also for adapted Win each shareWhat Sharkninja now sees at 4.95 $ 4.85 – good for growth of 13%.
Don’t make a mistake: the Trump tariffs are a big headwind for Sharkninja. But the company has made great efforts to overcome it.
First, Sharkninja was able to shift a large part of his US volume from China to these other countries that currently only have at least 10% tariff. The strategy for diversification and dual source strategy began in 2018, so the company was better prepared for this scenario than five years ago.
In addition, Sharkninja has close partnerships with contract manufacturers and was able to secure the costs for materials and discounts on materials and at the same time shift the production of certain goods to the lowest bidder if there is more than one production option.
Sharkninja also undertook a profound effort of his value creation processes, and management announced that 1,500 options for saving the costs were determined. This includes changes to configurations, surfaces, functions and other elements in far -reaching cost saving.
After all, Sharkninja selectively increased the prices for certain items sold in the USA, which can be seen mainly without taking the volume. Management provided an example: It increased the price for the Premium espresso machine from Ninja Luxe Café from $ 499 to 549 US dollars without identifiable demand.
This type of relentless execution and Pricing is a big sign for Sharkninja’s competitive advantage and brand power, which is very good for the long -term growth and profitability of the company.
Although Sharkninja gained hard after winning last week last week, the stock is still about 25% on its ups and traders with a reasonable 18.5 times this year’s profit guidelines. However, Sharkninja still has a long runway for growth.
This not only excludes in new categories – with the company aiming for two new subcategories every year – but also geographically. Management expects about a third of his income from international markets in Europe and Latin America this year. It sees a long runway for growth in these new regions.
Sharkninja also has an excellent return on equity – a measure of how efficiently a company makes profits – of over 25%. The late partner of Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, found that the returns of a share in the long run correspond to their return on capital, regardless of the price at which you buy a stock.
Today it certainly has the ingredients of a millionaire manufacturer with a high-quality company like Sharkninja, which is traded with a lower multiple trade, if it is bought and held in the long term.
