25/11/2014 15:49 | Paragon Group of Cos Reveals Share Buy-Back As Profit Jumps LONDON (Alliance News) - Paragon Group of Companies PLC Tuesday reported a jump in full-year ... Alliance News25 November, 2014 | 8:25AM LONDON (Alliance News) - Paragon Group of Companies PLC Tuesday reported a jump in full-year pretax profit, driven by growth in its mortgages lending and investment divisions, helping it to launch a share buy-back programme and to raise its dividend. In a statement, Paragon, which provides financing for buy-to-let mortgages as well as buying UK consumer debt, said it made a GBP122.8 million pretax profit in the year ended September 30, up from with GBP104.8 million in the prior year. Paragon raised its dividend by 25% to 9.0 pence and said its share buy-back programme will initially be up to GBP50.0 million. Paragon said its bank, which began taking retail deposits in June after receiving regulatory approval earlier this year, took GBP60.1 million in retail deposits by the end of the year. The group launched the bank in order to diversify its funding base, and wants to use it to finance an increasing proportion of buy-to-let business over time. Although the bank reported a GBP6.4 million operating loss for the year, widening from GBP1.3 million in the prior year, that was more than offset by a rise in operating profit at Paragon Mortgages to GBP81.1 million, from GBP71.6 million, as well as a rise to GBP48.1 million from GBP34.5 million in investment division Idem Capital. "Paragon Mortgages and Idem Capital have witnessed significantly increased new business and are well positioned for further growth. Significant progress has also been achieved in diversifying further the group's funding sources. In particular, the formation of Paragon Bank has provided us with the opportunity to diversify further both income streams and funding and we expect it to play an important role in the group's future plans," Nigel Terrington, chief executive, said in a statement. Terrington said the dividend increase and the launch of the share buy-back programme are part of a move to improve shareholder returns as the group grows. Paragon shares were up 4.1% at 393.40 pence on Tuesday, the best-performing stock on the FTSE 250. By Samuel Agini; samagini@alliancenew - See more at: hxxp://www.morningst | mike740 | |

25/11/2014 12:19 | Thought these results were good first thing. Will be holding rather than banking the gain from 340 as they are in a real sweet spot in the market. The tightening of the mortgage rules actually helps PAG as buy to let is outside of these regs so people unable to buy will continue to be forced into the private rented market. Increased divi, share buy backs as the company is raking in cash and all divisions appear to be thriving. GLA.... DYOR | devoncop | |

25/11/2014 07:58 | This Broker was looking for a 16% increase and we got a 17.2% increase year on year. Tuesday 25 November Paragon (PAG) will release its full-year results on Tuesday. Analysts' expectations: Paragon's full-year results are expected to show both Mortgages and Idem Capital posting strong growth. Stuart Duncan at Peel Hunt reckons there could be a 16% increase in profits. He anticipates "positive trends" in each aspect of the business, with expectations that "the Mortgage business [will] do £600 million of new completions, Idem [will] have completed further portfolio acquisitions, and the new bank to be making progress." With Paragon currently trading at roughly 1.1x September 2015 forecast net asset value (NAV), he believes that this "undervalues the future growth in ROE (return on equity)", which is why he retains his 'buy' recommendation. | mike740 | |
