Thesis
WPP trades at just over 9x earnings with a 5% dividend yield and an almost infinite return on capital (excluding goodwill). Despite current headwinds in the advertising industry, the financial characteristics of WPP are very attractive, suggesting that the market's fears regarding digital disruption may be overdone.
Did it work?
inconclusive
confidence: low
Without specific price performance data or a defined time horizon for the thesis, it's difficult to assess whether the investment thesis has played out. The thesis suggests that WPP's financial characteristics are strong despite industry headwinds, but without knowing how the stock has performed or any developments in the advertising industry, we cannot draw a conclusion.
