I'm holding onto my GIS but adding to it hasn't been on my radar in quite some time
Pros:
Share count reduced 21% over last decade
Decent yield (3.2%), decent 5-year chowder (13.5%)
Cons:
High-ish EV / EBITDA of 12.1
High-ish historical PE 19.2
High-ish payout ratio 57.5%
Low interest coverage 4.1
This is a buying opportunity sure ... but unless you're underweight in Consumer Defensive, which would be kind of hard to believe for any DGI long-ish in the tooth, there's lots of other great stuff out there
