CNA Financial Corporation (CNA) on Decifer

Decifer ranks CNA number 217 of 274 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• Its returns on invested money are modest, around 4% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is expected to grow about 21% a year, profits grew 33% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a healthy share of every sale as profit, and that has stayed steady over the years, a sign of real pricing power.
• It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
• It is not watering down its owners with new shares and it returns cash to shareholders.
• Modest returns around 4% and no growth role negate expected revenue growth of about 21% a year with momentum at 13 out of 35.

The current read

The evidence on CNA lines up on the supportive side: the intelligence feed flags this name as connected to what is moving markets now. The independent signals we track are telling the same story.

Themes

• Specialty & E&S Insurance Hardening: Climate-driven catastrophe losses and complex emerging risks are pushing coverage out of admitted markets into a hard-pricing specialty and E&S market growing above the broader P&C industry.
