Pitney Bowes: Too Late To Buy Now (Downgrade)
Summary My margin improvement thesis has played out, driven by GEC's exit and better-than-expected cost-saving initiatives. Weak revenue growth is the main risk for continued bullish views, as declining mail volumes and higher cancellation rates are headwinds. Valuations are cheap vs. peers, but implied earnings growth fundamentals are weak. Relative to the S&P 500, PBI bulls are losing momentum near key resistance levels, suggesting potential sideways to downward price action ahead.

Pitney Bowes: Turnaround Is Imminent
Summary Pitney Bowes is changing for the better under new management with the right business priorities. The GEC exit frees PBI from its major past drawback. Successful deleveraging will lead to a reevaluation by the market. The seeming secular decline of its remaining two segments can be offset. The valuation is still attractive despite the strong year-to-date performance, as business fundamentals keep on improving and the market underappreciates the enormous progress made under the new management.

Taking Profits In Pitney Bowes
Summary Bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered; don’t insist on milking every last dime out of a profitable trade. I’m taking profits in Pitney Bowes today due to its rich valuation and collapsing dividend yield, favoring 10 Year Treasury Notes instead. Pitney Bowes has improved its capital structure, reducing long-term debt by nearly 19% since Q3 2020, but it’s still losing money. The market’s growth expectations for Pitney Bowes are too optimistic; I prefer risk-adjusted returns from Treasuries over the current stock valuation.
