About Quantitative Ratings

Morningstar Quantitative Ratings for Stocks are generated using an algorithm that compares companies that are not under analyst coverage to peer companies that do receive analyst-driven ratings. Companies with quantitative ratings are not formally covered by a Morningstar analyst, but are statistically matched to analyst-rated companies, allowing our models to calculate a quantitative moat, fair value, and uncertainty rating.

Company Profile

Synlait Milk Ltd is a dairy processing company that benefits from a differentiated milk supply and unique operating environment in New Zealand. The business operates within one industry that includes the manufacture of milk powder and its related products, liquid milk, cheese, and butter. The company’s success is largely due to its core infant nutrition business. Some of its key products include infant nutritional powders, whole milk powders, skim milk powders, anhydrous milk fat, and lactoferrin. The company is largely export-focused with China as its largest export market. The acquisition of two cheese companies resulted in an instant increase in the cheese segment and a more diversified earnings base.
