American Financial Group is not the "sexy, high flying company" that a lot of people like to write about, and that's what makes it great. AFG is a company with a low volatility (Beta of 0.85) that pays a dividend and will provide steady returns. Currently, the company is trading well below industry average in all P/E, price to book, and price to free cash flow (the biggest indicator of those for me). AFG also has lower levels of debt, with a debt to equity of 0.2X and boasts a profit margin just under 50%. Despite being a steady company, there is room for dividend growth. The current dividend yield is 1.6% but the payout ratio is only 35%, indicating there is room to grow dividends within revenue.
