TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 2.1 million SNC-Lavalin Group shares held short by investors – that's known as SNC-Lavalin Group's "short interest". This figure is 15.9% down from 2.5 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting SNC-Lavalin Group shares can be evaluated.
SNC-Lavalin Group's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of SNC-Lavalin Group shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of SNC-Lavalin Group shares traded daily (recently around 466831.82844244). SNC-Lavalin Group's SIR currently stands at 4.43. In other words for every 100,000 SNC-Lavalin Group shares traded daily on the market, roughly 4430 shares are currently held short.
However SNC-Lavalin Group's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of SNC-Lavalin Group shares, or, against the total number of tradable SNC-Lavalin Group shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case SNC-Lavalin Group's short interest could be expressed as 0.01% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 SNC-Lavalin Group shares in existence, roughly 10 shares are currently held short) or 0.0119% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable SNC-Lavalin Group shares, roughly 12 shares are currently held short).
Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against SNC-Lavalin Group.
Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like SNC-Lavalin Group.
When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
Total ESG risk: 35.73
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and SNC-Lavalin Group's overall score of 35.73 (as at 01/01/2019) is pretty weak – landing it in it in the 63rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like SNC-Lavalin Group is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
Environmental score: 10.38/100
SNC-Lavalin Group's environmental score of 10.38 puts it squarely in the 7th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that SNC-Lavalin Group is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Social score: 22.61/100
SNC-Lavalin Group's social score of 22.61 puts it squarely in the 7th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that SNC-Lavalin Group is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
Governance score: 12.23/100
SNC-Lavalin Group's governance score puts it squarely in the 7th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that SNC-Lavalin Group is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Controversy score: 2/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. SNC-Lavalin Group scored a 2 out of 5 for controversy – the second-highest score possible, reflecting that SNC-Lavalin Group has, for the most part, managed to keep its nose clean.
We're not expecting SNC-Lavalin Group to pay a dividend over the next 12 months.
SNC-Lavalin Group's shares were split on a 3:1 basis on 8 March 2006. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your SNC-Lavalin Group shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 66.7% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for SNC-Lavalin Group shares which in turn could have impacted SNC-Lavalin Group's share price.
Over the last 12 months, SNC-Lavalin Group's shares have ranged in value from as little as C$17.4509 up to C$38.25. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (TO average) beta is 1, while SNC-Lavalin Group's is 1.4737. This would suggest that SNC-Lavalin Group's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
