SYLD: A Deep Value ETF With A Distinct Sector Mix

Cambria Shareholder Yield ETF (SYLD) employs a shareholder yield strategy, emphasizing dividends, buybacks, and debt paydown, resulting in deep value exposure. SYLD is overweight energy, consumer discretionary, and financials, but underweight technology, industrials, and real estate, leading to modest growth and profitability metrics. At a 10.9x P/E, SYLD trades at a significant discount to the S&P MidCap 400 and peers, but its growth (-3.2% earnings, 0.5% sales) and profitability (12.5% ROE) lag benchmarks.

SYLD has outperformed the S&P MidCap 400 benchmark since 2013 and several peer ETFs since 2017, though with higher volatility and a relatively high 0.59% expense ratio.

SYLD: Should You Buy The Dip After A Disappointing Year?

SYLD is one of Cambria's Total Shareholder Yield ETFs, offering exposure to 100 companies with high combinations of dividends, buybacks, and debt retirement. Its expense ratio is 0.59%. SYLD was one of the worst-performing funds over the last year, and my fundamental analysis reveals the likely source is its substantial exposure to the size and value factors. In contrast, its growth rates are extremely poor, and with S&P 500 Index sales and earnings surprises still solid, this lack of exposure to the growth factor matters.

SYLD: A Fund To Hold For The Coming Decade

The Cambria Shareholder Yield ETF is recommended for the next decade due to its focus on high shareholder yield through dividends, buybacks, and debt reduction. Shareholder Yield prevents inefficient use of free cash flows by management, offering a compelling long-term investment case with higher returns and lower drawdowns. SYLD is well-positioned for valuation compression with a lower PE ratio and better value metrics compared to the S&P 500 and mid-cap value category.
