Q: Is HAS.us a good company to have as a dividend grower and a reliable dividend payer? Out of the 10 years past, it has grown dividends in 7 ; its ROIC is 17%. Metrics APPEAR good ( do correct me if I am wrong).
Having been horribly burned in retail and consumer discretionary, I am cautious to put hard earned cash into HAS. Do you think its business model is sound for at least 4 or 5 years? Is it not hostage to consumer whims (if you forgive the leading nature of the last question). Do you think the risk-reward ratio ratio in HAS.us is good-- and, importantly, why please? What do you think of its prospects, both WITH Mattel and without. Your rigorous reasoning is always appreciated, many thanks
