Posted at 08/3/2011 07:47 by dashton42 From today's City AM (following on from the Telegraph article):CHAUCER'S share price was barely changed after the company reported a smaller-than-expecte Chaucer again said it had received a "number of takeover approaches" but was tight-lipped otherwise. But how much would a successful suitor have to pay? Despite a lower combined ratio the key measure of profitability for insurance firms the same fundamentals that made the insurer so attractive to buyers still remain. Firstly, the diversification of its underwriting exposure is extremely reassuring. In 2011, for example, rate increases of 10 per cent in energy and 14 per cent in UK motoring will offset a reduction of 10 per cent in US?property and a broadly flat picture elsewhere. Second, its presence in Lloyd's offers a perfect entrance for a private equity or trade buyer. Thirdly, it is strongly capitalised, with economic capital of £435m, including a buffer of £60m. For that reason, any buyer will likely have to pay a premium to its 2011 net tangible asset value, forecast at 54p by analysts at Shore Capital. A premium of around 20 per cent would likely be justifiable, meaning the magic number is around 65p. With the shares trading at 58.5p at yesterday's close, buyers could still make a tidy profit. |

Posted at 12/7/2009 13:21 by jpmorgan Back page of the Sunday times says the Martin Gilbert (Chairman) had struck a deal to sell 29% stake in last few days. If true, cant blame big investors wanting sector exposure to a company at 25% discount to NAV, profitable in a sector with favourable dynamics over next 12-18 months. Just a shame the management were diverted for a long period. Still good for longer term investors.JPM. |
