These bonds are often framed by sellers as a way to reduce risk by having the certainty of a bond that offers the upside of a stock\u2019s potential value appreciation. Read on for more about convertible bonds, how they work, why they exist and when they might be good investment choices.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><strong>Understanding Convertible Bonds: Features And Mechanics<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A convertible bond is a fixed-income instrument that, like any bond, is a loan. Initially, investors buy bonds from a company for a fixed price. The bond has a coupon rate stating the percentage of interest the bond holder receives until maturity. The company that sells the bonds uses the money to fund activities like expansion, financing, innovation or acquisitions.<\/p>\n<p>The investor can hold a bond, receiving regular interest payments, and eventually receive the initial amount owed at the end of the bond\u2019s term or the period of time over which the corporation selling the bond had agreed to pay interest.<\/p>\n<p>As with other bonds, investors can trade bonds on secondary markets, either buying or selling. At that point, bonds are priced by market activity with prices moving inversely to interest rates. If, for example, you had a bond with a 4% rate and you wanted to sell it on a secondary market, if in general interest rates moved up to 5%, the bond would sell for less than par (the face price) because other investors could make more money overall by purchasing one of the higher-rate bonds. If interest rates dropped to 3%, the bond would be worth more than par because buying an equivalent bond would pay less interest over the term.<\/p>\n<p>Where things get more complicated with convertible bonds is because they can allow the investor to swap a bond for common stock under certain conditions. This typically happens when shares hit a predetermined value in the equities markets, called the <em>conversion price<\/em>, set at the time the bond is initially sold. The <em>conversion ratio<\/em>, also set at initial sale time, specifies how many shares of stock the bond receives at conversion.<\/p>\n<p>Typically, the bond holder can convert to stock shares at will after the conversion price is reached. This is where the issue of risk management enters. Investors can decide to convert and then either hold or sell the shares, depending on the financial implications, or they can continue to hold the bond.<\/p>\n<p>That is the typical approach. In some cases, again known at the time of the bond\u2019s purchase, the company might have the right to force conversion.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>With inflation running at 3.0%, dividend stocks offer one of the best ways to beat inflation and generate a dependable income stream. <\/em><\/strong><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/bit.ly\/3qJ0i4X\"><em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/bit.ly\/3qJ0i4X\">Download Five Dividend Stocks To Beat Inflation, a special report from Forbes\u2019 dividend expert, John Dobosz.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><strong>Benefits And Risks Of Investing in Convertible Bonds <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In theory the investor gains the certainty of return that a bond offers with the upside that if the stock does well enough, you can move your investment to the equity part and gain the benefit. Should the stock lack luster in its performance, you can hold the bond.<\/p>\n<p>However, in practice, \u201cthey sound a little bit better than they really are,\u201d says Richard Alt, chief investment officer at registered investment advisor Carnegie Investment Counsel. \u201cIt\u2019s usually issued by a weaker corporation that doesn\u2019t necessarily want to dilute [existing] shareholders by issuing more stock or take on more debt. Instead of having to issue debt at 12% interest, maybe they can issue it at 8% interest because they have this carrot of being converted down the road.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More cynically, the company doesn\u2019t want dilution of executives\u2019 stock holdings. \u201cIt\u2019s usually a small company, they\u2019ve already issued stock, they\u2019ve taken on as much debt as they can, but they need one more round of financing, so they do a convertible bound,\u201d Alt says. That means there\u2019s both lower interest than normal on the bond portion and greater uncertainty on the stock\u2019s upside. \u201cWe, as a discretionary manager that manages $4 billion for individual investors for 50 years, will almost never buy a convertible bond at issue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEssentially, one should think of the issuance of convertible bonds as delayed equity financing,\u201d says Robert Johnson, a professor at the Heider College of Business of Creighton University. \u201cThat is, the firm issues bonds that are convertible into common stock at a price higher than the prevailing market stock price. The interest rate on the bonds is also lower than the firm would have to offer in the absence of the conversion right. This allows the company to lower its financing costs in the short-run.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lowering financing costs means getting less return on the bond side than might be the case for better quality bonds. They also mean a bet on the stock of what might be a weak company, making value appreciation chancier than with another company\u2019s stock. Or, as Johnson says, \u201cThe perfect climate for companies to issue convertible bonds is likely the worst time for investors to buy them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSomeone whose primary motivation is long-term wealth accumulation should not consider convertible bonds, as the return earned on convertibles over the long run is less than that earned in simply investing in the equity markets,\u201d says Johnson. Many investors will do better with a more appropriate choice of a traditional bond or a stock.<\/p>\n<p>But don\u2019t necessarily count all convertible bonds out.<\/p>\n<p>According to Johnson, there are people who will be attracted to the instruments. \u201cThe ideal investor in convertibles are those who desire reliable current income but would also like to earn some price appreciation in the long-run,\u201d he says. In other words, if you, by your nature, are highly risk adverse this might be a good match, allowing you to invest while feeling safer in the process.<\/p>\n<p>More broadly, Alt notes, a convertible bond might make sense under the following conditions:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The company is fundamentally sound.<\/li>\n<li>The company needs to raise money because of unusual reasons, like it looks to make an unusual significant investment that will add appropriate value to the company or has been temporarily caught during a business cycle in a way it couldn\u2019t avoid.<\/li>\n<li>The bond rate isn\u2019t too low compared to other bonds and the stock is likely to appreciate.<\/li>\n<li>The conversion decision is left in your hands and not something the company can force at will or on an arbitrary date.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Even if the convertible may not be the best option at issue, someone might be unloading their holdings on a secondary market at a significant discount, not unusual because the secondary trading for convertible bonds is thin (which by itself says a lot). \u201cWe would be hoping for a double-digit return\u201d with the discount, Alt says.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>With inflation running at 3.0%, dividend stocks offer one of the best ways to beat inflation and generate a dependable income stream. <\/em><\/strong><strong data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/bit.ly\/3L0OvFI\"><em data-ga-track=\"ExternalLink:https:\/\/bit.ly\/3L0OvFI\">Download Five Dividend Stocks To Beat Inflation, a special report from Forbes\u2019 dividend expert, John Dobosz.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><strong>Evaluating Convertible Bond Issuers And Terms<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In keeping with the above, it\u2019s important to know whether the convertible bond issuer is a weak company with lower prospect of ultimately providing a good return or a stronger prospect caught in circumstances but that will likely return to more normal conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Check the credit rating of the company. You want one that is strong and unlikely to default on its obligations, because bonds always carry some degree of risk that the issuer won\u2019t fully pay off the loan and it\u2019s important to minimize that risk.<\/p>\n<p>The company\u2019s financial health is also important. Look at cash flow, balance sheet, sales and profit histories, existing debt, along with other metrics. The business should be strong with the potential for value appreciation that would drive the stock price upward. If there seems little likely upside for the stock of a weaker company, it could be that management is going the convertible route as the rationale for lower coupon rates while knowing the stock probably won\u2019t trigger a conversion opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the case, look at the coupon rate, conversion price and conversion ratio. Is there a realistic chance of a conversion happening and are you going to get enough shares to make the bond\u2019s value reasonable? Or is the interest rate enough to be satisfied holding the bond to maturity?<\/p>\n<p>Also, consider current interest rate trends. Depending on whether they are likely rising or falling, the future price of the bond might appreciate or fall.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><strong>Top Performing Convertible Bonds: Income And Growth Opportunities <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>\u201cThe best way for the DIY investor is to take a position in a convertible bond fund or ETF,\u201d Johnson says. The amount of work needed to go through individual offerings is high, and there is little way to tell in advance when a company might plan an issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDiversification is the biggest advantage\u201d of ETFs, Johnson adds, \u201cbut also professional management is important in this highly-specialized area. The disadvantage is that expense ratios of these highly specialized funds tend to be rather large (from 75 to 100 basis points annually). The largest convertible exchange-traded fund is <strong>SPDR Bloomberg Barclays Convertible Securities<\/strong> (CWB), which yields 3.5%, has a 4-star Morningstar rating and has a relatively low expense ratio of 0.40%. The second largest convertible bond ETF is the <strong>iShares Convertible Bond ETF<\/strong> (ICVT), which yields 3.2%, has a 4-star Morningstar rating and has a very low expense ratio of 0.2%.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><strong>Convertible Bonds Vs. Traditional Bonds And Equities <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Although the right convertible bond, or a lesser one available at a fire sale, may offer a reasonable investment, for most people, moving into traditional bonds and equities will be a wiser choice. Rather than spending the time picking and then monitoring\u2014constantly having to decide whether to convert or even to continue holding the bond at all\u2014choosing some traditional bonds <em>and<\/em> stocks can give better portfolio risk management.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"subhead-embed color-accent bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><strong>Convertible Bonds FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><strong><em>How do convertible bonds work?<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A convertible bond comes with a coupon interest rate, like any bond, but under specified circumstances can be converted into a predetermined number of shares should share prices reach a specified price.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What are the advantages of investing in convertible bonds?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Convertible bonds can provide some risk management in case share prices don\u2019t grow as expected.
