AM Best Revises Outlooks to Negative for Machinery Insurance, Inc., An Assessable Mutual Insurer
BUSINESS WIRE)-- AM Best has revised the outlooks to negative from stable and affirmed the Financial Strength Rating of B++ (Good) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating of 'bbb' (Good) of Machinery Insurance, Inc., An Assessable Mutual Insurer (Machinery) (Jacksonville, FL). The Credit Ratings (ratings) reflect Machinery's balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as strong, as well as its strong operating performance, very limited business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management (ERM). The negative outlooks reflect the deterioration in Machinery's net underwriting income and pre-tax operating income over the most recent five-year period, driven by a significant decline in premiums over most of that period. The decline in premiums was attributable to the intentional graduation of policies to larger surety writers by its agency, which was accelerated by inflationary trends, as well as increased competition by larger surety writers in the company's own small account market niche. Consequently, Machinery's operating performance metrics have fallen out of line in recent years with the median of 'strong' assessed rating units within its fidelity and surety composite. A continuation of this trend could result in a reduction of the company's 'strong' operating performance assessment. However, Machinery has continued to grow surplus organically in each of the last five years through net investment income, net underwriting income and capital gains on its equity portfolio. Despite the deterioration in operating performance, Machinery maintains a strong overall balance sheet, support by risk-adjusted capitalization at the strongest level. Machinery's business profile is assessed as 'very limited' due to its geographic and product concentration, as well as its intention to remain a tax-exempt organization under federal law, which limits its revenue to less than $600,000 annually. Machinery's ERM is considered appropriate for its risk profile, commensurate with the complexity and scale of the company. Machinery's small size allows for management to remain actively involved in all risk assessments and continuing to develop its risk appetite through strict underwriting practices. This press release relates to Credit Ratings that have been published on AM Best's website. For all rating information relating to the release and pertinent disclosures, including details of the office responsible for issuing each of the individual ratings referenced in this release, please see AM Best's Recent Rating Activity web page. For additional information regarding the use and limitations of Credit Rating opinions, please view Guide to Best's Credit Ratings. For information on the proper use of Best's Credit Ratings, Best's Performance Assessments, Best's Preliminary Credit Assessments and AM Best press releases, please view Guide to Proper Use of Best's Ratings & Assessments.

The Return Trends At KSB SE KGaA (ETR:KSB) Look Promising
To find a multi-bagger stock, what are the underlying trends we should look for in a business? Firstly, we'll want to see a proven return on capital employed (ROCE) that is increasing, and secondly, an expanding base of capital employed. This shows us that it's a compounding machine, able to continually reinvest its earnings back into the business and generate higher returns. Speaking of which, we noticed some great changes in KSB SE KGaA's (ETR:KSB) returns on capital, so let's have a look. We've discovered 1 warning sign about KSB SE KGaA. View them for free. If you haven't worked with ROCE before, it measures the 'return' (pre-tax profit) a company generates from capital employed in its business. To calculate this metric for KSB SE KGaA, this is the formula: Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities) 0.13 = €243m ÷ (€2.9b - €983m) (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2024). Thus, KSB SE KGaA has an ROCE of 13%. In absolute terms, that's a satisfactory return, but compared to the Machinery industry average of 8.7% it's much better. Check out our latest analysis for KSB SE KGaA In the above chart we have measured KSB SE KGaA's prior ROCE against its prior performance, but the future is arguably more important. If you'd like, you can check out the forecasts from the analysts covering KSB SE KGaA for free. KSB SE KGaA has not disappointed with their ROCE growth. More specifically, while the company has kept capital employed relatively flat over the last five years, the ROCE has climbed 115% in that same time. So our take on this is that the business has increased efficiencies to generate these higher returns, all the while not needing to make any additional investments. It's worth looking deeper into this though because while it's great that the business is more efficient, it might also mean that going forward the areas to invest internally for the organic growth are lacking. In summary, we're delighted to see that KSB SE KGaA has been able to increase efficiencies and earn higher rates of return on the same amount of capital. And a remarkable 309% total return over the last five years tells us that investors are expecting more good things to come in the future. In light of that, we think it's worth looking further into this stock because if KSB SE KGaA can keep these trends up, it could have a bright future ahead. One more thing to note, we've identified 1 warning sign with KSB SE KGaA and understanding it should be part of your investment process. While KSB SE KGaA may not currently earn the highest returns, we've compiled a list of companies that currently earn more than 25% return on equity. Check out this free list here.
