Smile! N.L.'s first speed cameras are operating in St. John's

The province has a few extra sets of eyes on the road with the installation of three new speed cameras in St. John's. Two of them are located on Veterans Memorial Highway, and the third is at the intersection of Waterford Bridge Road and Nottingham Drive. Sarah Stoodley, Minister of Government Modernization and Service Delivery, says another speed camera will be installed near Larkhall Academy and Leary's Brook Junior High in September. "I think these locations won't be any surprise to anyone," Stoodley said at an event Friday. "This location here on Waterford Bridge Road was identified as, I think, the city's top area of concern given the proximity to schools and playgrounds in the area." The cameras, serviced by private contractor Jenoptik, use sensors to detect vehicle speeds. If a vehicle is caught speeding near the camera, it will take an image of the license plate and will send a ticket to the registered owner. The tickets can be disputed just like any other, as it adheres to the Highway Traffic Act. Drivers are now able to pay fines online through the MyGovNL website, Stoodley announced Friday. Signage is in place to warn drivers of upcoming cameras. "We're not trying to trick people. We're trying to get you to slow down," Stoodley said. The $3.9-million speed camera program is set to take place in stages, the first of which includes 10 cameras on provincial and municipal roads. Stoodley said the three cameras installed this week are part of a smooth transition process. Cameras will also be installed on the stop arms of school buses, which will detect illegally passing vehicles. John Haggie, Minister of Justice and Public Safety, said vehicle speeding is one of the most common concerns in Newfoundland and Labrador. "This is the behaviour we want to modify," he said. "This is about getting people to adhere to the law and the reason for that is: it keeps people safe."

Jenoptik AG's (ETR:JEN) Stock Has Been Sliding But Fundamentals Look Strong: Is The Market Wrong?

It is hard to get excited after looking at Jenoptik's (ETR:JEN) recent performance, when its stock has declined 11% over the past three months. However, stock prices are usually driven by a company's financial performance over the long term, which in this case looks quite promising. Particularly, we will be paying attention to Jenoptik's ROE today. Return on equity or ROE is an important factor to be considered by a shareholder because it tells them how effectively their capital is being reinvested. In simpler terms, it measures the profitability of a company in relation to shareholder's equity. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. Return on equity can be calculated by using the formula: Return on Equity = Net Profit (from continuing operations) ÷ Shareholders' Equity So, based on the above formula, the ROE for Jenoptik is: 8.9% = €86m ÷ €972m (Based on the trailing twelve months to March 2025). The 'return' is the yearly profit. One way to conceptualize this is that for each €1 of shareholders' capital it has, the company made €0.09 in profit. Check out our latest analysis for Jenoptik Thus far, we have learned that ROE measures how efficiently a company is generating its profits. We now need to evaluate how much profit the company reinvests or "retains" for future growth which then gives us an idea about the growth potential of the company. Assuming all else is equal, companies that have both a higher return on equity and higher profit retention are usually the ones that have a higher growth rate when compared to companies that don't have the same features. On the face of it, Jenoptik's ROE is not much to talk about. Although a closer study shows that the company's ROE is higher than the industry average of 4.2% which we definitely can't overlook. Consequently, this likely laid the ground for the decent growth of 11% seen over the past five years by Jenoptik. That being said, the company does have a slightly low ROE to begin with, just that it is higher than the industry average. So there might well be other reasons for the earnings to grow. Such as- high earnings retention or the company belonging to a high growth industry. Next, on comparing Jenoptik's net income growth with the industry, we found that the company's reported growth is similar to the industry average growth rate of 11% over the last few years. Earnings growth is an important metric to consider when valuing a stock. It's important for an investor to know whether the market has priced in the company's expected earnings growth (or decline). By doing so, they will have an idea if the stock is headed into clear blue waters or if swampy waters await. What is JEN worth today? The intrinsic value infographic in our free research report helps visualize whether JEN is currently mispriced by the market. In Jenoptik's case, its respectable earnings growth can probably be explained by its low three-year median payout ratio of 24% (or a retention ratio of 76%), which suggests that the company is investing most of its profits to grow its business. Besides, Jenoptik has been paying dividends for at least ten years or more. This shows that the company is committed to sharing profits with its shareholders. Upon studying the latest analysts' consensus data, we found that the company is expected to keep paying out approximately 22% of its profits over the next three years. Therefore, the company's future ROE is also not expected to change by much with analysts predicting an ROE of 10.0%. In total, we are pretty happy with Jenoptik's performance. In particular, it's great to see that the company has seen significant growth in its earnings backed by a respectable ROE and a high reinvestment rate. We also studied the latest analyst forecasts and found that the company's earnings growth is expected be similar to its current growth rate. Are these analysts expectations based on the broad expectations for the industry, or on the company's fundamentals? Click here to be taken to our analyst's forecasts page for the company.
