Interesting stuff Darrin.

I can only guess the market makers book is all over the shop at the tax year end as Private investors do their last minute tax planning.

Anyways at a mkt cap of £23m the shares are looking a whole load more interesting now. I am happy they will survive anything other than a savage eco0nomic depression - just a question of how quickly they can cut their hydrogen market costs and limit paper losses.

Frenchfry_ Maybe investors need to ask serious questions if you are correct.
Do you know how what percentage of the shares he holds personally? All the website gives is that the family holds 33.3%

Investor Meet presentation ~ Its clear the paper division has proved a drag on performance over the years, it's still a major part of group revenues but just not profitable hence restructuring going ahead; however luxury packaging is a good market. There are some interesting growth divisions here including hydrogen. This is a company that invests quite heavily in its business but I think investors need to see improved financial results come through.

Any thoughts on the results?

No real surprises I thought. One thing that did catch my eye was this paragraph:

"The appointment of Steve Adams as CEO, as announced on 10 August 2022, creates an opportunity for a division portfolio review, to ensure we deliver on our short and long term goals as we enter a new phase of growth. As an existing Executive Director of the Company and Managing Director of the James Cropper Paper Division, Steve joined the Company in 2017 and is perfectly positioned to oversee this work, which is already underway."

I wonder if they might actually be thinking about disposing of the paper manufacturing? It's the largest division by turnover but has always been an unreliable profit source. It will, however, probably have a lot of assets so should be worth a bit in a sale.

I think if they did get rid of this and focused on TFP and Colourform we would see a step change in profitability and the attractiveness of these shares to investors.

The investors' Chronicle have called this a sell.



I actually disagree somewhat and would like to buy but hopefully they will get cheaper before things get better.

Liontrust from January

Hold: James Cropper (CRPR)
Stevens classes herself as a “buy and hold” investor, who doesn't like to trade in and out of stocks, even though the micro-cap space can be volatile, which can create trading opportunities. “We like to hold companies for the long term and let the businesses do the work for us by growing,” she says. “ It allows us to be more relaxed about timing, not to worry about when to enter or exit from a position.”
James Cropper has been in the fund since March 2017, and she has topped up the holding along the way. She says: “It’s an interesting business located in the Lake District. They have been producing paper for over 200 years.”
The company has three divisions; the main one makes the low-volume high-quality coloured paper that it’s used in Burberry carrier bags, while the most profitable one is Technical Fiber Products, which provides the aerospace industry with a material made up of carbon fibres called non-woven. “You can find it on the outside of aircrafts made by Boeing and Airbus, and Ferrari and Lamborghini use it in their cars," says Stevens.
The third division is 3D Print, which produces environmentally-friendly paper packaging that substitutes more polluting plastic packaging. Stevens, however, points out that it’s very difficult to make it and keep the colour: “You have some pulp and you crush it under high pressure into shape. But when you crush it, the colour gets lost.” It is the growth of this final division over the next decade that Stevens is particularly excited about and which will ensure she stays invested for the long-term.
