Trimble Trading Alerts and Improvement Suggestions

Trimble is unlikely to experience financial distress in the next 2 years
The company currently holds 3.22 B in liabilities with Debt to Equity (D/E) ratio of 0.44, which is about average as compared to similar companies. Trimble has a current ratio of 0.97, indicating that it has a negative working capital and may not be able to pay financial obligations when due. Debt can assist Trimble until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Trimble's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Trimble sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Trimble to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Trimble's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

Trimble Greeks

Most traded equities are subject to two types of risk - systematic (i.e., market) and unsystematic (i.e., nonmarket or company-specific) risk. Unsystematic risk is the risk that events specific to Trimble or Electronic Equipment, Instruments & Components sector will adversely affect the stock's price. This type of risk can be diversified away by owning several different stocks in different industries whose stock prices have shown a small correlation to each other. On the other hand, systematic risk is the risk that Trimble's price will be affected by overall stock market movements and cannot be diversified away. So, no matter how many positions you have, you cannot eliminate market risk. However, you can measure a Trimble stock's historical response to market movements and buy it if you are comfortable with its volatility direction. Beta and standard deviation are two commonly used measures to help you make the right decision.

The market value of Trimble is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Trimble that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Trimble's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Trimble's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Trimble's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Trimble's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
Please note, there is a significant difference between Trimble's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Trimble is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Trimble's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
