AFLAC Inc (AFL) Quote

UPDATE: I wrote that post almost 4 years ago. Aflac has since continued to perform well and its stock is currently at an all-time high. Historically, the company has conducted periodic (but not frequent) stock splits when the price gets to ATH levels... We shall see. In the meantime, GLTY and go Aflac!

AFL new 52 week high

AFL new 52 week high

AFL new 52 week high

To this day, Aflac remains a great company (and AFL a solid stock). I've invested in it since 1991, never sold a single share, and even DCA'ing monthly the *entire* time. For anyone considering AFL for the long-term, do your own diligence, but here is my current take: While Aflac may be an "old & boring" insurance company, it is also a very established dividend payer and is presently undervalued by most metrics. It's well covered with various independent analysts. AFL's Morningstar rating is typically 4 to 5 stars. Motley Fool usually depicts it with a 4 (of 5) CAPS rating (and with a 90%+ CEO approval rating with over *400* votes). In sum, Aflac is definitely not a get-rich-quick vehicle, but for me (after about 30 years of consistent dividends and periodic stock splits), it certainly remains one of my best rides to wealth.

AFL has been a great long term investment play. I’ve owned since 2011 and with the recent dividend increase and stock buyback in place will continue to be a solid long term investment.

Alert update #2 on SHLDQ (1-27-19) :

Hope you are having a great New Year :) a quick update on Sears/Kmart [OTCBB: SHLDQ] and the updated $5.2 Billion accepted buyout (see link) received last week:

This stock [OTC: SHLDQ] is both Sears and Kmart. Please review the links at the bottom from recent 8Ks. There has been an active and confirmed Short Attack that brought the SHLDQ from $140+/share down to under .40/share and volatility brought it to where it is now (.54/share) but with a reversal and last weeks announcement of a buyout for $5.2 Billion and news coming next week, we believe that SHLDQ will head back over $47/share.

There are now over 600 Kmart and Sears stores in operation in the United States with over 50,000 employees. Sears and Kmart are currently undergoing restructuring under Chapter 11 to rebuild the company and with assets of over $3 billion, this SHLDQ market cap of $58 million is unbeatable by any other pennystock.

A few facts:

SHLDQ has Outstanding Shares of less than 109 million

Float of less than 30 million shares

Market Cap of $58 million

SHLDQ insiders own over 70% of the 109 million OS

With chapter 11 restructuring, we expect that the over 600 stores nationwide will return SHLDQ back to $47+ per share.

AFL Aflac 1Q Net Surges Over Weak Year Ago; Core Profit Well Ahead Of Street
PROVIDED BY Dow Jones & Company, Inc. - 4:36 PM 04/24/2012
DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

http://stockcharts.com/h-sc/ui?s=AFL

Aflac Inc.'s (AFL) first-quarter earnings more than doubled over a year- earlier period hit by heavy investment losses, although the insurer also posted a core profit that easily exceeded expectations.

Shares jumped 5% to $44 after-hours as the insurer, which has operations in Japan and the U.S., also boosted its outlook for its Japanese operations, its largest revenue stream.

Chief Executive Daniel P. Amos said the company now expects Aflac Japan's full-year sales to increase 10%, compared with the company's previous expectation for a sales decline.

"Aflac Japan's first-quarter production set an all-time new annualized premium sales record for the third quarter in a row," Amos said. "More importantly, we believe the first quarter has positioned us for another strong year of sales activities in Japan."

Aflac (AFL) in recent months has been in the midst of an overhaul of its $100 billion investment portfolio after struggling with losses on its significant European holdings.

The insurer, which has already sold billions of dollars of European securities, in February revealed it had hired consultants from Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) and McKinsey & Co. to help it broaden and re-evaluate its investment approach.

For the first quarter, Aflac (AFL) posted a profit of $785 million, or $1.68 a share, up sharply from a year-earlier profit of $389 million, or 83 cents a share.

The latest results included after-tax realized investment losses, net of realized investment gains, of $29 million, or 6 cents a share. That compares with net after-tax losses of $376 million, or 79 cents a share, in the year- earlier period.

Operating earnings, which exclude investment gains and losses, rose to $1.74 a share from $1.62 a year earlier, easily topping the $1.65 expected by analysts polled by Thomson Reuters.

Revenue jumped 22% to $6.24 billion, reflecting the benefit from a stronger yen/dollar exchange rate. Analysts expected revenue of $6.2 billion.

*If the earnings date is in error please ignore error. I do my best.

blip63,

I think I could take that as a compliment. It is my responsibility to be where the money is. I believe in the duck. It is becoming iconic and cheaper, the very combination of categories that make me a survivor at this game.

Good Luck to you.

Strong username to mod dethroning correlation.

Hey guys, Good news which I got it. Just got a newsletter saying that this stock is going to be huge come Monday. What can you guys tell me about it

any info on when the news will be out?

Another long term buy for my portfolio that I'm betting when the economy gets moving will rise significantly.

Over the years, Aflac has been significantly focusing on strengthening its insurance operations through successful product launches and the expansion of its distribution system, which has been significantly contributing to its strong sales results. This has also enabled the company to generate healthy capital ratios and cash position.

Aflac Inc.’s second quarter operating earnings per share of $1.56 came in a couple higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.54 but modestly exceeded $1.35 reported in the year-ago quarter. Operating earnings escalated 14.7% year over year to $733 million. A stronger yen/dollar exchange rate helped increase operating earnings per share by 11 cents.

Aflac is a wonderful long-term play. I'm accumulating shares.

Morgan Stanley is out with its report today on Aflac (NYSE: AFL), downgrading AFL from Overweight to Equal-weight.

In a note to clients, Morgan Stanley writes, "With an RBC ratio of 520%, the consensus view is that Aflac is flush with excess capital – as much as $2.0 billion by some estimates. Our review of its Japan SMR leads us to a different conclusion – its ratio of 512% (old method: 919%) is less robust, both in absolute and relative terms, and we expect the de-risking initiatives being executed could place further pressure on the ratio. We expect this will limit capital management opportunities for the company. We downgrade AFL to EW."

Aflac Quacks Up A Good Quarter, Good Hands Hits A Homer
04.28.11, 11:25 AM ET

Late yesterday, Aflac reported first quarter profits of $395 million, or $0.84 per share, compared to $636 million, or $1.35 per share, last year.

The company said total revenues were up 1% to $5.12 billion, reflecting a stronger yen and realized investment losses.

Adjusted earnings of $1.63 per share beat analyst expectations.

The insurer said that it expects operating earnings of $6.09 to $6.34 for the full year, if the yen averages 80 to 85 on the dollar for the year. It said its expected rate of earnings growth is lower for 2012 due to portfolio derisking activities and continued low interest rates in Japan.

Also late yesterday, Allstate posted first quarter earnings that jumped to $519 million, or $0.97 per share, from $120 million, or $0.22 per share, last year.

The revenue surge was due to lower catastrophe losses as well as investment gains, the company said. Consolidated revenue rose 4.5%, to $8.1 billion.

AFLAC has rebounded fantastically since the big hit the PPS took after the tsunami. It just goes to show you how strong a company this is. Monster day today -- up 4.99%!

Still down $2 today...

AFLAC CEO..."we calculated the cost of a tsunami in our business model." Shocked to sh.. The stock didn't drop like a rock today.

Good price.

I wonder what the dividend will be...

This should be back to $60 in no time.

Aflac is family-owned and family-run.

Great company. No golden parachutes here.

!9 dollars now! Deutsche bank downgraded it on "INVEST".

Will it be a big bounce back tomorrow?

yikes! what a drop

How substantial! I hope tomorrow is a better day.
