Should I Buy Hasbro (HAS)? Finance YouTuber Analysis

The YouTuber recommends Hasbro due to its turnaround in digital gaming, maintained full-year outlook, and upcoming catalysts like Marvel and Transformers movie releases. Shares are trading at a significant discount to historical PE ratios, suggesting substantial upside potential back to historical valuations.

“shares trade for just 14 times this year's expected earnings versus a five-year average closer to 37 times PE now even if it makes it back to maybe a 20 times p e ratio and on 2024 earnings of five dollars a share that's a hundred dollar stock price for a 61 return on top of the dividend”

The YouTuber includes Hasbro in his daughter's portfolio as a 'fun stock' to get her interested in investing. He highlights its ownership of popular brands like Peppa Pig and Disney Princess lines.

“for the fund stocks we have shares of toy makers Hasbro and Mattel Hasbro sells the Peppa Pig and the Disney Princess line”

The YouTuber surprisingly recommends toy maker Hasbro Inc. for its resilience during market crashes, noting it fell significantly less than the broader market in the last downturn. Near-term catalysts, such as activist investor pressure for changes like spinning off divisions or selling its film studio Entertainment One, could unlock significant shareholder value and provide strong upside potential. Analysts project over 15% upside.

“this next dividend stock actually surprised me toy maker hasbro inc ticker has and its 3 percent dividend yield you wouldn't expect a toymaker a stock in that volatile consumer discretionary sector to do well during a stock market crash but but shares fell just 23 in the last crash less than half the drop in the rest of the market”
