I've just been at the retail investor presentation this morning.

Overall the management is very professional and competent. I was reassured by their knowledge and approach. The numbers also look excellent, particularly the cash generation.

On pricing, the company achieved an 18% increase last year in two tranches with no push back, and a further 10-15% this January. Their three main competitors put through price increases of 45, 44 and 42% last year, the last increase being in October, with some push back, but are marketing zero increase for this year. The MM price premium has reduced from around 30% to 20%. They have basically maintained margins and gained goodwill from customers.

On exports, they export a bit to Europe - mainly high end specific contracts - but are up against high quality competitors, so exporting is not an important part of their strategy. 25% of UK demand is met by imports - a lot from Belgium and Holland.

Only saving grace is that demand can't be met currently, so as long as the actual current need is met, then the fall is good news for new investors, as the cash and divi wont really be affected on current activities.

I think the MBH share price has suffered from an understandable but unwarranted reaction to the large increases in GAS prices.

It's understandable because brick making is energy intensive.

However MBH have:
1) previously stated that they have hedged forward on gas prices
2) this time they state "Careful management of input costs on a risk based approach, with energy costs continuing to be hedged in volatile markets as appropriate"
3) "Portfolio price increase implemented on 1 July 2022 to mitigate
ongoing elevated inflation rates"

So I think it is unwarranted. It is a well managed company with a premium product and fairly wealthy customer base. I think it has a great future beyond the short term energy crisis which it seems to be navigating well.

For those interested in questioning the company about its GAS prices the company states:
"The Company will be hosting an online presentation to retail investors on Thursday 8(th) September at 3pm. Those wishing to join the presentation are requested to register via the following link: Meeting Registration (hxxps://forms.gle/CaqwGK7piGoEPGe26) ."

A dirt-cheap UK growth share to buy right now!I think this ultra-cheap UK share could be an excellent buy as demand for its products soars. Here's why I'd buy it today to hold for the next 10 years.Royston Wild?Published 21 April, 11:04 am BSTMBHI'm searching for the best cheap UK shares to buy for my stocks portfolio. Here's one I think could be an exceptional buy following strong industry newsflow today.Looking goodKey data streaming in from the British housing market shows that demand for homes continues to outstrip supply. So buying London's quoted housebuilders could be a good idea in this climate.However, another effective way to capitalise on these favourable conditions might be to invest in companies that manufacture building products.This is why I think investing in Michelmersh Brick Holdings (LSE: MBH) could be a great idea.The brilliant brickmakersOn Thursday, a couple of Michelmersh's industry rivals released news that confirms how fertile the trading landscape is right now.First up let's look at Ibstock, a cheap UK share that I own. It said today that "demand in both the new build housing and RMI [repair, maintenance and improvement] markets remains robust".Indeed, it said that stronger clay brick volumes would help full-year profits beat its prior estimates.Brickability Group also today upgraded its profits expectations following better-than-expected business in the last quarter. It noted that "the underlying long-term demand for UK housing remains robust" as does "demand for quality materials for the construction sector generally".The trend continuesThursday's excellent updates follow Michelmersh's own strong trading statement of late March. Then the company said that it expected "positive end market fundamentals expected to continue" in housing, commercial and RMI sectors. It saw revenues rise 11.2% year-on-year in 2021.Rising costs are a problem for the likes of Michelmersh as freight, energy and raw materials prices increase. This is a danger that both Brickability and Ibstock mentioned in Thursday's updates.Still, on balance, I think the potential benefits of me owning these stocks outweigh the risks.Given the wealth of good omens it's perhaps unsurprising that City analysts think Michelmersh's profits will continue to soar. Current consensus is for the brickmaker to record a 39% increase in annual earnings in 2022. At recent prices of 123p per share this leaves Michelmersh stock looking dirt-cheap too.A price-to-earnings growth (PEG) ratio below 1 suggests that a share could be undervalued by traders and investors. And right now Michelmersh trades on a valuation of just 0.4.An excellent long-term buyI won't be fooled into thinking that Michelmersh is just a great buy for today, however. I expect demand for its bricks to remain robust as housebuilding rates rise.The government has announced plans to "build at least a million more homes, of all tenures, over the next Parliament". The scale of Britain's homes shortage means that construction activity will need to remain robust well into the 2030s too.

Sphere25 - excellent analysis. More upside than downside I think in the shorter term.

Longer term, this is a well managed, debt free company with a premium product in a market where demand exceeds supply and is likely to for some time. It has also had a progressive dividend policy in the past.

Questions I ask myself:
* Is future growth limited by capacity? If so, what can the company do about it?
* Is the company taking full advantage of the excess demand to raise prices and therefore margins and RoE?
* Will landfill increase in profitability?
* Will the company raise dividends faster than expected? It can afford to but I think it manages in the interests of all stakeholders including employees and customers. Where do investors rank?

Overall I rate the management of this company highly, and will continue to top up my holding on dips like this.

Unearthing undervalued growth stocks is never easy.

However I think premium brick manufacturer Michelmersh is just the ticket for L/T smallcap investors.
