It took longer than investors wanted, but the last
couple of quarters have finally shown the margin improvement investors
have been waiting for in Grupo Bimbo’s (OTCPK:BMBOY)
U.S./Canadian operations. Unfortunately, top-line momentum has been
fading in both Mexico and U.S./Canada, and management has acknowledged
limited capacity for price increases.
I thought Bimbo was undervalued back in June of 2018,
and I think the share price outperformance since then has been
reasonable. I still think the shares are undervalued, particularly if
management can get its Latin American and EAA operations on better
footing, but the discount to fair value isn’t as large anymore and it’s
hard for me to be as bullish on this stock relative to the
underperforming Gruma (OTC:GMKKY).
