It doesn't matter your age or experience: taking full advantage of the stock market and investing with confidence are common goals for all investors.
Many investors also have a go-to methodology that helps guide their buy and sell decisions. One way to find winning stocks based on your preferred way of investing is to use the Zacks Style Scores, which are indicators that rate stocks based on three widely-followed investing types: value, growth, and momentum.
Value investors love finding good stocks at good prices, especially before the broader market catches on to a stock's true value. Utilizing ratios like P/E, PEG, Price/Sales, and Price/Cash Flow, the Value Style Score identifies the most attractive and most discounted stocks.
Headquartered in Emeryville, CA, NMI Holdings was incorporated in May 2011 and began start-up operations in 2012. NMI Holdings wrote its first MI policy in 2013.
NMIH sits at a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), holds a Value Style Score of B, and has a VGM Score of A. Compared to the Insurance - Property and Casualty industry's P/E of 13.5X, shares of NMI Holdings are trading at a forward P/E of 8.4X. NMIH also has a PEG Ratio of 0.9, a Price/Cash Flow ratio of 9.2X, and a Price/Sales ratio of 4.7X.
A company's earnings performance is important for value investors as well. For fiscal 2024, three analysts revised their earnings estimate higher in the last 60 days for NMIH, while the Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased $0.04 to $4.54 per share. NMIH also holds an average earnings surprise of 9.7%.
With strong valuation and earnings metrics, a good Zacks Rank, and top-tier Value and VGM Style Scores, investors should strongly think about adding NMIH to their portfolios.
