08/4/2016 09:26 | Shore Capital: M&S revival expected under new boss Shares in Marks & Spencer (MKS) are in the doldrums but analysts have confidence in new boss Steve Rowe. Clive Black retained his ‘buy’ recommendation but does not have a target price on the shares, which rose 3% to 432.9p yesterday. ‘Given [Rowe’s] nature, dynamic, active and to the point, we do anticipate that M&S will enter a period of further change albeit second guessing the nature and extent of the change under Mr Rowe is difficult,’ he said. ‘We struggle to see this process of change involving a mere Elastoplast and so some surgery may feature when the time comes to update the market on M&S’ next chapter for development.’ He added: ‘In the near-term M&S from a financial perspective may be on course to go a little backwards in order to go forwards depending on Mr Rowe’s prognosis for the business. However, while it is only an act of faith to some degree, he is an executive to that we are minded to back, one with commitment, energy and insight to demonstrably take M&S on a better course, something for which long-standing shareholders pine.’ | philanderer | |

07/4/2016 17:03 | 7th april Cantor sell tp 400p 7th april Peel Hunt buy tp 450p 7th april Haitong Secs buy tp 550p Analyst opinion Analysts generally anticipated consensus full year PBT to remain just above £670m, with EPS of just above 34p. Canaccord welcomed Rowe's arrival in the hot seat, given the breadth and depth of his operational and managerial experience around the group over the past quarter of a century. "We note that for the foreseeable future he intends to in effect retain the role of Head of GM, the position he was last in before his elevation, albeit for a relatively short time given the lead times within the clothing industry. With his stated aims of customer focus and simplifying the business, we see this as a positive and a statement of intent regarding unfinished business." Shore Capital added: "Whilst the market will understandably concentrate upon the GM performance it is important to retain a sense of perspective to the extent that M&S, aided by new space, is demonstrably and sustainably out-performing the UK grocery market." After the analyst conference call, ShoreCap said management had spoken of new food outlets performing ahead of plan with attractive internal rates of return being generated. They added that M&S contained "considerable positive operational gearing" potential from the group's business model with sustained LFL sales growth. "Whilst the mid-teen percentage margins of halcyon days are not within our purview, same-store advances can still materially move margins to our minds, so driving considerable free cash generation in due course, noting that Mr. Rowe may wish to tailor the group's store estate to a configuration of this liking too." Cantor Fitzgerald's Freddie George was much less positive, saying he believes history will show Rowe "has inherited a business that has pulled out the 'kitchen sink' to improve its profits over the last three years", with GM gross margins likely to consolidate after two years of growth and "no easy remedies to drive sales". "Food has been a surprising success but we believe faces growing competition from a more confident food retail sector. In the meantime, we cannot see the company moving off the current level of pre-tax profitability, which has averaged £669m over the last seven years." | philanderer | |
