RNS results this morning look decent, beat forecasts and outlook improving too with e-commerce growing, hire improving which is better margin, and refurbished stores generating increased sales, only the divi a bit flat.

That's my concern also. I think the assumption is "all is ok" but we'll find out soon...

From I.C. today;

MOSS BROS
Smart clothes retail and hire company Moss Bros (MOSB) is using its strong balance sheet and cash flows to revamp its business while at the same time funnelling plenty of capital to shareholders through its generous dividend payouts. The company embarked on a five-year store-refit programme in 2012, which is producing encouraging results. At the time of Moss Bros’s last trading update, like-for-like sales for the first 19 weeks of the second half were up 7.8 per cent, which marked an improvement on the first half. That said, discounting and a reduction in the proportion of sales coming from Moss Bros’s hire business reined in gross margins, although the impact on earnings was offset by reduced operating costs.
As well as the store refits, sales are being boosted by the launch of new brands and by investment in the group’s online shop. Given that only 7.4 per cent of sales are currently generated over the internet, there is plenty of room for e-commerce growth. Prospects for the dividend also look rosy due to management’s intention to return excess cash to shareholders and the fact that the company has net cash equivalent to about 20p per share.

Thanks coolen, I am not the worlds best at analysing balance sheets.

I see that last year they had 6.1 million capex and D&A of 4.9. 1.6 million of the capex was new hire items and the rest seems to have been shop openings and refurbs.

With the refurbs continuing and the inevitable need to keep the hire inventory up to date I cant see capex falling very much. So I cant see that much more of the cash flow will be available for shareholder returns in the near future.

There is a lot to like withe the cash on the balance sheet and decent potential growth as the economy recovers, but it looks to be in the price.

cheers

Excellent observation Stevie Blunder.

Once upon a time, companies were forced to use "Current Cost" Accounting.

Those calculations highlighted the cost of replacing capital items.

That method did not last long, but was sometimes an eye-opener.

Hi, I arrived here having read Simon Thompson in the IC. He is pretty positive.
Says if you take the cash off the market cap, and add back depreciation and amortisation because they are non-cash items, they trade an enterprise to cash profit multiple of only 6.

That is all well and good, but can we really ignore the depreciation and amortisation? Can anyone shed any light on what is being depreciated and amortised? Over time depreciation should equal capital investment, as what is being depreciated will need replacing. So what is going on here that we should ignore it (according to Simon at any rate)?

There is much to like here, (except the chart ;-)) so any help much appreciated.

Steve

I guess the market is paying more account of margins in trading update but there was plenty of director buying in the 90,s so maybe there is good news ahead,

Looks like I was a bit previous here but sticking with it for now though I admit that I don't like the look of the chart and may change my mind if it doesn't stabilise.
