Stock Analysis: Cincinnati Financial Corp. (CINF)

Cincinnati Financial Corp. markets primarily property and casualty coverage; it also conducts life insurance and asset management operations.

CINF was founded by independent insurance agents in order to better service their needs by providing them preferential treatment when picking an underwriter. The company primarily sells commercial property-casualty insurance with a smaller personal lines exposure marketed through a select group of about 1,100 independent insurance agencies. Like most financial services companies, CINF has seen its share of struggles. Back in December 2009 when I last looked at CINF, its Free Cash Flow payout of 78% turned me away from giving it serious consideration. Since then, the company has worked its FCF payout down to its present level of 47%. The stock has now earned the right for serious consideration when it is trading below its buy price of $34.00.
