Posted at 07/11/2015 17:59 by loganair First-half figures from Cable & Wireless Communications (CWC) were eclipsed by news that Liberty Global could soon mount a bid for the Caribbean and Latin American telco. The owner of Virgin Media now has until 19 November to make a firm offer. Jefferies analysts think the main draw is CWC's $8bn (£5.2bn) in tax assets - lossmaking operations to offset other profits - in the US and UK. They think a potential offer could reach 100p a share, valuing the group at north of $6.6bn.Mounting competition and lower demand for landline services meant earnings fell in three of CWC's five territories, sending adjusted operating profits down 5 per cent to $215m. The sunshine in these results was the key Caribbean region, where constant-currency cash profits leapt 23 per cent to $213m as network investments attracted mobile and broadband subscribers. CWC's directors also bumped up their predicted synergies from Columbus International, a regional peer acquired in March 2014. They now expect to save $125m in operating costs by March 2018, up from $85m. They recently rolled out bundles of TV, broadband, mobile and fixed-line services in the Caribbean under the 'Flow' brand, and are gearing up to launch Flow Sports Network, which will broadcast exclusive content such as Premier League football and the Rio Olympics in 2016. Consensus forecast EPS for the full financial year is 3.3¢ (17.5¢ in FY2015). IC VIEW: CWC's forward enterprise value is less than 8 times forecast cash profits - in line with international peers. It has long underperformed, but cost-cutting measures, content investments and network improvements are starting to revitalise the business. In any case, the potential bid suggests investors shouldn't sell out yet. Hold. |
Posted at 20/5/2015 16:56 by loganair IC - Higher mobile and broadband sales, along with cost reductions, fuelled a 7 per cent rise in adjusted cash profits to $585m (£377m) at Cable & Wireless Communications. But investors sent the Caribbean and Central American telco's shares down 1 per cent on news that recently acquired Columbus International posted cash profits of $255m, about 7 per cent behind expectations. That led management to forecast an earnings decline this year.Deutsche Bank analysts cut their forecast cash profits by about 6 per cent to $525m, giving EPS of 3¢ (from $585m and 5¢ in 2015). IC VIEW: Project Marlin and the Columbus acquisition should underpin CWC's long-term growth. Although its shares have risen strongly this year, the group's enterprise value is 7 times consensus forward cash profits, in line with international peers. Hold. |
Posted at 20/5/2015 10:01 by prokartace Darius,I do not make assumptions without checking my figures for some concrete evidence before I put it in writing, unlike you I suspect. Around $ 600mil of the fixed rate debt is paying interest between 8.625 and 8.75% please check this link From this I deduce that with agreements with bank facilities below 5% they may be able to average 5% on their debt. This is an optimist assumption |
Posted at 11/5/2015 11:00 by loganair Central America offers a huge opportunity to brave investors:hxxp://moneyweek.com It might sound contrarian to invest in a region which still has so many problems, but so far it’s paid off. Cable and Wireless, a UK telecoms firm that earns most of its money in Central America and the Caribbean, is up 71% since I first tipped it in June 2013. That’s good, but I think the region will give British investors plenty more in the years to come. How to play it: First up is UK telecoms firm, CWC (LSE: CWC), which has operations across Central America and the Caribbean. It’s up by more than 70% since I first tipped it, and is doing a good job of building up its footprint in the region. |

Posted at 20/12/2013 17:46 by trulyscrumptious Cable & Wireless Communications (CWC), a British firm whose roots go back to telegraph companies in the Victorian era, is reportedly being considered as a takeover target by two U.S. communications giants, AT&T (NYSE: T [FREE Stock Trend Analysis]) and Liberty Global (NASDAQ: LBTYA).Cable & Wireless has been in transition for some time now. It is moving its headquarters out of the U.K. and to Miami, Fla. And as the Daily Mail newspaper notes, the company sold off two of its four businesses earlier this year, "as part of its strategy to focus on business on the pan American (Caribbean and America) region." In 2010 CWC "demerged" with its sister company, Cable & Wireless Worldwide (CWW). But CWW, with its extensive fiber-optic system in Britain, struggled financially after the separation, and last year it was acquired by Vodafone (NASDAQ: VOD) for $1.7 billion. Related: Tesla May Unveil Lower-Priced Sedan at 2015 Detroit Auto Show As of January, CWC will also have a new CEO: Phil Bentley, former managing director at British Gas. The company's Chairman, Sir Richard Lapthorne, noted in October that CWC is entering a new phase. "Following our recent divestments, we now have a business with a single geographic focus and strong balance sheet," he said in a press statement, "and we are investing in growth areas of mobile data and high-speed broadband." Last month, Deutche Bank reportedly gave CWC a Buy rating, while analysts at Jeffries Group issued a Hold in a research note to investors, and JP Morgan Chase reiterated its Neutral rating.

Posted at 29/9/2013 15:41 by michaelmouse djwr100 - "So, to look at the lowest its ever been and use that as a reference to show a supposed gain is a bit unjust, I think."When I chose the portfolio it didn't mark the lowest price for the stocks mentioned. In fact TCG was 43.55p and subsequently fell to 14p. The date was arbitrary, and I just chose stocks that were out of fashion and seemingly written off by the market at the time. In fact TCG is a good example of what often happens with bombed out stocks that later recover. If you had bought TCG in August 2011 for 43.55p and then seen it plummet to 14p this may have caused some considerable alarm. However, if as an investor you had stayed calm and held on then you would now have made a considerable profit. Such examples have shaped my investing style, and I just buy into companies when I perceive them as cheap and hold for the medium or long term. If you still believe that CWC has potential then hold patiently and wait to see what happens. Michael. |
