S&P Global all-stock $44B deal undervalues IHS Markit, Truist analyst says

S&P Global's (NYSE:SPGI) agreement to buy IHS Markit (NYSE:INFO) at ~$44B enterprise value, or $98 per share in stock, materially undervalues INFO, according to Truist analyst Andrew Jeffrey. The ~6% premium to INFO's recent close is disappointing when considering IHS's multi-year organic revenue, EBITDA, and free cash flow compounding outlook, the analyst wrote in a note to clients The combined entity's expected 6.5%-8% CY22-23 organic revenue growth outlook is "materially comparable to IHS's stand-alone outlook" and "highlights what we view as the dubious merits of the combination," Jeffrey said. Points out that the proposed merger would value INFO at ~21.7x CY21E EBITDA, which is an about 11% discount to info services rival Verisk (NASDAQ:VRSK), he adds. Jeffrey also finds it surprising that Markit's founder and current IHS Markit CEO Lance Uggla won't hold a leadership role in the combined SPGI/INFO. "We are startled by this outcome given his entrepreneurial roots and the success he has achieved as IHS' CEO," Jeffrey said. "Little about this transaction makes sense to us." He also doesn't see an rival suitors stepping up as the size of the transaction makes it prohibitive for private equity. IHS Markit is up 6.9% in premarket trading, bringing the stock's price to $98.95.

MRS taps Verisk’s voice analytics to screen for tobacco users

Management Research Services (MRS), a life insurance technology provider, is tapping Verisk’s (VRSK +0.2%) proprietary voice analytics for integration into its telephonic medical interviews. MRS will implement Verisk’s Tobacco Usage Propensity Model, which uses machine learning and AI, to analyze audio interviews and flag possible tobacco users. It will then determine if certain applicants need to submit to lab tests to verify their tobacco usage status. Maroun Mourad, president of global underwriting at Verisk, commented on the integration, "Our model supports more straight-through processing, enabling the majority of applicants to avoid traditional testing and help obtain coverage more quickly. It’s truly a win-win situation, since insurers can reduce premium leakage related to tobacco nondisclosure, which may cost the industry more than $10B in lost premiums over the next three years." Verisk’s Tobacco Usage Propensity Model is part of a suite of advanced analytics, automation and machine learning solutions for life insurance underwriting, claim insights, life and pension analytics, actuarial and portfolio modeling and compliance and fraud detection.
