SeaCube Container Leasing  (FRA:03S) Net Current Asset Value Explanation

Benjamin Graham first discussed net current asset value (NCAV) in the 1934 edition of "Security Analysis", which he coauthored with David Dodd. In the book, (net) current asset value is defined as:" current assets alone, minus all liabilities and claims ahead of the issue."

The common definition of NCAV is: NCAV = current assets – [total liabilities + minority interest + preferred stock]

Net current assets exclude not only the intangible assets but also the fixed and miscellaneous assets. In addition, Graham believed that preferred stock belongs on the liability side of the balance sheet, not as part of capital and surplus. In "Security Analysis", preferred stock is dubbed "an imperfect creditorship position" that is best placed on the balance sheet alongside funded debt.

One research study, covering the years 1970 through 1983 showed that portfolios picked at the beginning of each year, and held for one year, returned 29.4 percent, on average, over the 13-year period, compared to 11.5 percent for the S&P 500 Index. Other studies of Graham’s strategy produced similar results.

Benjamin Graham looked for companies whose market values were less than two-thirds of their Net-Net Working Capital. They are collected under our Net-Net screener.

Traded in Other Exchanges
N/A
Address
Website
SeaCube Container Leasing Ltd was incorporated in Bermuda in March 2010. It is a container leasing company based on total assets. Containers are the primary means by which products are shipped internationally because they facilitate the secure and efficient movement of goods via multiple transportation modes, including ships, rail and trucks. The principal activities of its business include the acquisition, leasing, re-leasing and subsequent sale of refrigerated and dry containers and generator sets. It leases its containers primarily under long-term contracts to a diverse group of the shipping lines. It owns or manages a fleet of 507,013 units, representing 795,039 TEUs of containers and generator sets. It leases three types of assets: Reefers, which are used for perishable items such as fresh and frozen foods; Dry freight containers, which are used for general cargo such as manufactured component parts, consumer staples and apparel; and Gensets, which are diesel generators used to provide mobile power to reefers. The Company's fleet of equipment consists of three types of container assets: refrigerated containers, dry freight containers and generator sets. Refrigerated containers, or reefers, are insulated containers that include an integrated cooling machine. These containers are typically used to carry perishable cargo such as fresh and frozen produce, meat, poultry, fish and other temperature sensitive products. A dry container is essentially a steel box with a set of doors on one end. Dry containers are the least-expensive type of intermodal container and are used to carry most types of freight. Generator sets, or gensets, are portable diesel fueled generators used to power reefers. They can be used when reefers are transported by trucks. It competes with Textainer Group, Florens Group, Triton Container, TAL International and GE Seaco. The Company is subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, including those governing the discharge of pollutants to air and water, the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes and the cleanup of contaminated sites.
