Yes , back to pre-results levels. Good to see a bit of a divi hike even if it's not exactly an income play.

Mind you the heady days of 2004/5 make this a reminder of what can go wrong .

Looks like on next leg up , following the TU that I missed 2 weeks ago.

We expect to report full year adjusted operating profit in line with current market expectations. The Board remains confident about future growth and performance over the medium term as we continue to expand our geographical coverage and processing capacity.

Moved to a 20 month high, I like the look of this slow recovery. Though sadly a long way from my average buying price of about £4 in 2008!

IC article, FWIW, is more cautious , concerned about the energy price exposure and the lack of workwear volume growth and concludes HOLD. Which I suspect is what most of us are doing. In March they also said hold at 115p.

Here's Berenberg's guess ;-)


Berenberg: Johnson Services in an upgrade cycle


Textile rental company Johnson Service Group (JSG) is in the middle of an upgrade cycle, says Berenberg.

Analyst Calum Battersby retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of 155p on the Citywire Elite Companies A-rated business, which was trading at 131p on Thursday.

He said first-half results showed ‘clear support for our investment case’.

‘A combination of price increases, strong volume performance, improving spot energy prices and ongoing efficiency savings led to material year-on-year profit growth – against an admittedly pandemic-affected prior-year period – and another upgrade to full-year 2023 expectations, just six weeks after the last trading announcement and upgrade,’ he said.

He also pointed out that within the results the board said each of its divisions can recover pre-Covid margins in the medium term.

Battersby said this suggests ‘significant upside to future forecasts as this recovery plays out’.

The acquisition of Celtic Linen for €31.5m (£27m) and the £10m extension of the group’s buyback programme also showed ‘the range of options available to the company in terms of capital deployment, driving further upside to group earnings’.

‘Overall, Johnson Service Group is in the middle of an upgrade cycle that we expect to continue for some time, more than justifying the current valuation of 13.8 times 2024 price/earnings,̵7; he said.

You wonder, when brokers adjust their target as their previous target is breached, if they are just guessing too....

The market is recognising that quality of management has improved since the ill fated Sketchley acquisition days.

This smells of the past repeating itself. No return to shareholders, laughable dividend, working capital chucked at share buy backs and serial aquasituons, now increasing banking facilities to do even bigger deals. I remember full well when they bought Sketchlys which resulted in existing shareholders being completely wiped out by emergency dilutive fundraising.

Interims look encouraging, though I am surprised how little the share price has risen so far today.

Yes it looks like a synergistic acquisition and ignoring any cost savings , the price seems competitive. Of course it is hard to now if there are hidden problems, why are they selling? Wonder why they didn't await results day to announce?
SP likes ir ' moving towards an 18 month high.
