Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Great Business, Bad Stock? Valuing Ferrari and Costco with Fajasy
Q: How should investors think about book value for asset-light companies or those with stock buybacks?
Book value can understate true capital due to intangibles and buybacks; the model adjusts for this by recognizing the smaller capital charge when book value is understated and noting that residual earnings will reflect the adjusted capital base even if reported equity looks different.
Great Business, Bad Stock? Valuing Ferrari and Costco with Fajasy
Q: What is residual earnings and why does it matter for valuing high-quality stocks?
Residual earnings measure economic profit by subtracting a charge on beginning book value (the required return times prior book value) from reported earnings, highlighting value creation only when returns exceed the cost of capital; this helps separate true value creation from accounting earnings.
Intercontinental Exchange ($ICE): Clearing, Collateral and the Business Behind the NYSE
Q: What about management and insider ownership or the leadership's vision?
Jeff Sprecher is the CEO and founder, who has built ICE into a global electronic market and infrastructure company. Insider ownership is modest but the CEO has substantial net worth and skin in the game, reflecting a long-term, innovative culture with a philosophy of learning from failures.
Intercontinental Exchange ($ICE): Clearing, Collateral and the Business Behind the NYSE
Q: What about the growth engine going forward? Are there any segments at risk?
The energy segment of the exchange business is expected to drive the most growth, with Brent Crude Oil as a key liquidity benchmark. Mortgage headwinds may pose risk, though management sees potential offset as housing demand could be stimulated.
Intercontinental Exchange ($ICE): Clearing, Collateral and the Business Behind the NYSE
Q: Could you break down the recurring revenue percentage and where it stems from?
ICE has a healthy mix of recurring and transaction revenues across segments, with aggregate recurring revenue around 51%, and higher recurring shares in specific segments: 28% in exchange, 83% in data, and 73% in mortgage. This supports stability since the exchange is sensitive to trading volume while data and mortgage provide more predictable cash flows.
