Dividend Declared

On December 12, 2017, Weingarten announced that its Board of Trust Managers declared a special cash dividend of $0.75 per common share payable on December 29, 2017, to shareholders of record on December 26, 2017. The Company estimates the special dividend will consist primarily of gains on dispositions of properties.

Weingarten’s indicated dividend represents a yield of 4.58%, which is substantially above the average dividend yield of 3.76% for the financial sector. The Company has raised dividend for seven consecutive years.

Dividend Insights

Weingarten has a dividend payout ratio of 63.4%, which indicates that the Company distributes approximately $0.63 for every $1.00 earned. The dividend payout ratio reflects how much amount a company is returning to shareholders versus how much money it is keeping on hand to reinvest in growth, to pay off debt, and/or to add to its cash reserves.

According to analysts’ estimates, Weingarten is forecasted to report earnings of $1.09 for the next year compared to the Company’s annualized dividend of $1.54. One of the primary reasons for the difference between earnings and the annualized dividend is that Weingarten is a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) which is structured by law to distribute at least 90% of earnings. Moreover, since REITs generate income from owning portfolios of investment real estate, they are likely to have higher depreciation charges.

Since depreciation is a non-cash charge, it does not directly impact the ability of dividend the companies can distribute. For this reason, Fund from Operations (FFO) is calculated by adding depreciation and amortization to earnings and subtracting any gains on sales which then provides a better picture of any company’s profitability and capacity to pay and to sustain dividends. For instance, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, Weingarten reported net income of $72.6 million or $0.56 per share, compared to $51.9 million, or $0.40 per share, for Q3 2016. On the other hand, the Company’s NAREIT FFO was $78.9 million, or $0.61 per share, for Q3 2017 compared to $73.1 million, or $0.56 per share, for Q3 2016. The FFO indicates that the Company should be able to comfortably cover its dividend payout.

As of September 30, 2017, Weingarten had cash and cash equivalents of $39.25 million compared to $16.26 million available as of December 31, 2016. The Company’s balance sheet remained in great shape with minimal maturities for the next several years and only $40 million currently outstanding under its $500 million revolving credit facility. Weingarten’s net debt to EBITDA at quarter-end was 5.55 times, down significantly from 6.05 times at the end of Q3 2016. The Company’s strong financial position indicates its ability to absorb any fluctuations in earnings and cash flow and to sustain the dividend distribution for a long period.

www.active-investors.com/registration-sg/?symbol=ZBRA

Earnings Highlights and Summary

Zebra Technologies’ net sales were $935 million in Q3 2017 compared to $904 million in Q3 2016. The Company’s sales numbers exceeded analysts’ expectations of $914 million.

During Q3 2017, Zebra Technologies’ consolidated adjusted net sales were $936 million compared to $906 million in Q3 2016, reflecting growth of 3.3%. The Company’s consolidated organic net sales growth for the reported quarter was 5.9% reflecting growth across all regions, most notably Latin America, EMEA, and North America.

For Q3 2017, Zebra Technologies’ gross profit was $429 million compared to $414 million in Q3 2016. The Company’s consolidated adjusted gross margin for the reported quarter was 46.0% versus 45.9% in the prior year’s comparable period. This improvement was due to the unfavorable impact of a price concession to distributors of printer products imported into China in Q3 2016 and favorable changes in business mix, partially offset by temporarily higher supply chain related overhead costs and higher support services costs.

Zebra Technologies reported a net loss of $12 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for Q3 2017 compared to a net loss of $83 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, for Q3 2016. The Company’s non-GAAP net income for the reported quarter was $101 million, or $1.87 per diluted share, compared to $75 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, for the year-earlier same quarter, and came in ahead of Wall Street’s estimates $1.72 per share.

During Q3 2017, Zebra Technologies’ adjusted EBITDA increased to $180 million, or 19.2% of adjusted net sales, compared to $164 million, or 18.1% of adjusted net sales, for Q3 2016, primarily due to higher gross profit and lower operating expenses.

Segment Results

During Q3 2017, Zebra Technologies’ net sales in the Enterprise segment were $611 million compared to $605 million in Q3 2016. The Company’s legacy Zebra segment’s net sales were $325 million in the reported quarter compared to $301 million in the prior year’s corresponding period.

This facility includes a new $687.5 million term loan A and a $500 million revolving credit facility. The Company’s proceeds from the new facility were used to redeem $750 million of its 7.25% senior notes.

Zebra Technologies’ free cash flow was $174 million for the first nine months of 2017. The Company generated $210 million of operating cash flow and incurred capital expenditures of $36 million.

For the first nine months of 2017, Zebra Technologies made payments of long-term debt of $1,373 million and received proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt of $1,186 million, resulting in a $187 million net reduction of total debt.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 21, 2017 / Larry W. Reaugh, President and Chief Executive Officer of American Manganese Inc., (TSX-V: AMY; OTC PINK: AMYZF; FSE: 2AM) (“AMI” or the “Company”) comments on the release this week of a new U.S. Government report listing 23 metals and minerals that are critical to “the national economy and national security of the United States.” AMY’s patented recycling process recovers three of the materials listed – cobalt, lithium and manganese – with potential to recover a fourth, graphite.

The report, “Critical Mineral Resources of the United States – Economic and Environmental Geology and Prospects for Future Supply,” was issued by the US Geological Survey (USGS). At more than 800 pages, it is the first comprehensive U.S. Government report surveying the resource potential of the U.S. since 1973.

“We’re interested to see that three and potentially four of the metals and minerals on the new U.S. list are those we’re focused on with our AMY recycling process,” said Larry Reaugh, CEO of American Manganese. “This new report clearly ties the lack of access to these key battery materials to negative consequences to the U.S. national economy and national security. Our work at AMY can help reverse this trend – another signal that markets are looking for new and reliable sources of critical materials supply.”

Immediately after the release of the USGS report, President Trump signed a new Executive Order entitled “A Federal Strategy to Ensure Secure and Reliable Supplies of Critical Minerals.” The Executive Order directs the U.S. Secretary of the Interior in cooperation with the Secretary of Defense to prepare a list of critical minerals within 60 days, followed by a report recommending a U.S. Government strategy for reducing foreign dependence on those metals and minerals identified as critical.

The United States is currently import-dependent for more than 50% of its annual lithium needs, 74% of its cobalt – the bulk of which originates in conflict zones in the DRC Congo – and 100% of its manganese and graphite.

The U.S. report comes on the heels of American Manganese’s announcement on the design and budget for its pilot recycling plant and new IP development. AMI applied for a full US Patent for recycling spent electric vehicle lithium-ion battery cathode metals in November this year.

About American Manganese Inc.

American Manganese Inc. is a diversified specialty and critical metal company focused on capitalizing on its patented intellectual property through low-cost production or recovery of electrolytic manganese products throughout the world, and recycling of spent electric vehicle lithium-ion rechargeable batteries.

Interest in the Company’s patented process has adjusted the focus of American Manganese Inc. toward the examination of applying its patented technology for other purposes and materials. American Manganese Inc. aims to capitalize on its patented technology and proprietary know-how to become and industry leader in the recycling of spent electric vehicle lithium-ion batteries having cathode chemistries such as: Lithium-Cobalt, Lithium-Cobalt-Nickel-Manganese, and Lithium-Manganese (Please see the Company’s July 27, 2017 press release for further details).

www.active-investors.com/registration-sg/?symbol=OHRP

Active-Investors.com is focused on giving you timely information and the inside line on companies that matter to you. This morning, Tesaro most recent news is on our radar and our team decided to put out a fantastic report on the company that is now available for free below:

www.active-investors.com/registration-sg/?symbol=TSRO

Earnings Highlights and Summary

Tesaro reported total revenues of $142.8 million for Q3 2017 compared to $17.0 million for Q3 2016. The Company’s revenue numbers exceeded analysts’ expectations of $121.3 million.

During Q3 2017, Tesaro’s cost of sales totaled $7.5 million, and included $6.2 million associated with product revenue, and $1.3 million related to amortization of milestones recorded upon the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’s approval of ZEJULA and first commercial sales of VARUBI/VARUBY in the US and Europe. The Company’s cost of sales totaled $0.8 million for Q3 2016.

Tesaro’s research and development (R&D) expenses increased to $73.4 million for Q3 2017 compared to $60.8 million for Q3 2016, driven primarily by an increased headcount, the advancement of the Company’s earlier-stage immuno-oncology portfolio, and the expansion of the TSR-042 and TSR-022 programs.

For Q3 2017, Tesaro’s selling, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased to $84.0 million compared to $37.7 million for Q3 2016, primarily due to an increased headcount, activities in support of the launches of ZEJULA and VARUBY in the US and Europe, and higher professional service fees.

Tesaro’s net loss totaled $25.3 million, or $0.47 per share, for Q3 2017 compared to a net loss of $87.9 million, or $1.72 per share, for Q3 2016. The Company’s loss was lower than Wall Street’s estimates of $1.04 per share.

Segment Results

During Q3 2017, Tesaro’s net product revenue totaled $41.8 million compared to $1.3 million for Q3 2016. The growth was driven by the continued strong launch of ZEJULA in the US. ZEJULA’s net revenue totaled $39.4 million, while VARUBI/VARUBY’s revenues totaled $2.4 million compared to $1.3 million for Q3 2016.

In the reported quarter, approximately 65% of prescriptions were filled through Tesaro’s specialty pharmacy channel and the remainder were filled by specialty distributors.

For Q3 2017, Tesaro’s license, collaboration, and other revenue totaled $101.0 million, and included the $100.0 million up-front payment received as part of the license agreement with Takeda. This compares to license, collaboration, and other revenue of $15.7 million for Q3 2016, which included the majority of the $15.0 million up-front payment received as part of the Zai Lab license agreement.

Recent Business Developments

On October 25, 2017, the FDA approved the intravenous (IV) formulation of VARUBI® (rolapitant), and the US commercial launch was planned for November. The unit demand for VARUBI oral capsules increased 74% on a y-o-y basis for Q3 2017 as the brand continues to penetrate the US oral NK-1 market.

Tesaro initiated clinical trials to support the planned Phase-3 studies of niraparib combined with its anti-PD-1 antibody, TSR-042, in patients with lung and ovarian cancers and to evaluate niraparib plus TSR-042 in patients with advanced or metastatic cancers suitable for treatment with an anti-PD-1 antibody, including ovarian and lung.

Cash Matters

As of September 30, 2017, Tesaro had approximately $521.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, and approximately 54.4 million outstanding shares of common stock.

Stock Performance Snapshot

December 20, 2017 – At Wednesday’s closing bell, Tesaro’s stock slightly declined 0.69%, ending the trading session at $76.37.
