Galliano’s Financials Research

Galliano's Financials Research provides fundamental research in Emerging Markets financials, including FinTech, as well as financials in select Developed Markets.

The investment style applied is generally value oriented, although Growth At Reasonable Price (GARP) strategies can also be used where appropriate. 

Our investment research approach aim is often contrarian, looking to capitalise on overly sceptical or optimistic consensus views. In terms of valuation techniques, the focus is on PBV ratio to ROE, PE multiples and dividend yield, as well as the application of PEG ratios and, where appropriate, Sum of the Parts (SOTP) valuations.

<li>Softbank’s successful Arm Holdings IPO is a relief for Masa, with Arm valued at USD57bn and Arm shares trading above the issue price; this supports the SoftBank share price</li>
<li>Arm’s key challenge is delivering on the growth strategy to justify its super-premium valuation; Arm’s historic price to sales is at a big premium to its peer group, excluding Nvida</li>
<li>On current market values including Arm, Softbank shares trade at a 52% NAV discount; however, Arm’s current valuation seems unsustainable to us, threatening to erode the near term NAV lift</li>
