The CEO purchase post Brexit and the currency hedging provides comfort.

"We remain confident in the outlook for the full year and that the strong cash flows generated by the business will support our progressive dividend policy and underpin our continued growth."

Yep seems to be spluttering a bit and Interims not till mid Jan.

Unfavourable fx could be bothering peeps, they did say they hedged after the Brexit result but didn't say how much so we're left guessing. The CEO purchase a couple of months back was substantial so I don't think there's trouble ahead but maybe a bit flatter than anticipated?, then again lots prices will be going up in the new year so they'll probably be able to offset most of the currency hit. Imo.

CEO spent £130k on shares - nice vote of confidence. Price action looking very good IMO

RNS increasing capacity with new premises in anticipation of growing orders from both discounters and majors. Unfussy confident communicators I like these.

Thanks - just discovered that myself ! Much better

The majority of debt is being paid off by the £60m+ from the recent listing. Ratio should be more like 1x to 1.5x at year end.

[davr0s] 06/8/2016 20:51

I like the story, but the thing that caught my eye was debt which is 4x profits which seems a bit high. Anyone any views on this?

[keyno] 05/8/2016 11:14

Investor's Chronicle still have this as a buy.

From the equity development note:

"Although Accrol sources its parent reels from overseas suppliers, both it and UK mills are both subject to relatively similar forex exposure risk. Around 70% of the cost of producing a parent reel is pulp and a similar proportion of the cost of Accrol’s finished goods is tissue, both generally traded in USD. In order to hedge this risk operationally Accrol’s sources via a smaller number of mills and typically, takes over 50% of their output. That provides it with some scope to use its leverage with suppliers to push down the USD/tonne rate to protect its margins."

In other words, Brexit may cause some major short term margin pressure on the business once their current hedges expire. With most their costs of material in USD and the large movement since Brexit, they are going to have to push price increases through to 'discount' chain customers.

This is easier said than done in my experience and may have a material impact on future profitability.

ED have updated their note, no target price but PER 10 with 5% divi well covered seems good value.

ACRL,

nice contract win and positive trading update.

In the event that there is a period of reduced consumer expenditure following the UK's decision to leave the European Union, it is possible that the move towards non-discretionary economy and private label products will accelerate. If this happens, Accrol believes it is well positioned to benefit as over 50% of sales are generated from the discount market segment and the Company is primarily focused on supplying private label products to both discount and multiple retailers.

The Company remains significantly hedged against adverse currency movements for the financial year ending 30 April 2017. Moreover, whilst only two months of this financial year have passed, the directors are comfortable with market forecasts and continue to see opportunities in the market. Results for the year ended 30 April 2016 will be announced on 22 July 2016.
