12:03 | nchanning: Wonderful corporate activity here, have exchanged a low quality business at a high multiple for a high quality business at a lower multiple. Clearly more likely to find synergies and cross selling opportunities in this complementary business too than in Milkrite. Management have made all the right moves to turn Avon into a hidden champion over the last couple of years

18:31 | hawaly: The Armed Forces are "Sticky" - in a past life I was an NBC (Nuclear, Biological and Chemical) Instructor.
The forces won't change horses with this type of kit.
Avon once used to make the road wheels for APCs and MBTs - probably the trackpads too.
Happy days.....

15:01 | clanger66: Fuji the numbers you cite there are for the year ending Sept 2019. Since then the company has completed on its acquisition of 3M's ballistic protection business which delivered $85.4 mill revenue and $10.8 mill of EBITDA in the year ending Dec 2018 so you have to add your expectations for this business in. Plus you need to take into account the divestment of Avons milk business so there are a lot of moving parts. I don't think Avon is expensive at the moment considering its quality.

10:44 | jeffian: I am pleased that they have based their dividend decision purely on financial performance. One of the unfortunate side-effects of the current pandemic is that dividends have been 'politicised', with many companies who are willing and able to pay deciding to defer or cancel dividends for political reasons. It may be understandable in the case of those companies which are using taxpayer support (e.g. furloughed staff) but there are other cases - e.g. the supermarkets - where they just seem a bit embarrassed about doing well when others aren't. I hope things revert to normal when the pandemic is over, but it sets a rather worrying precedent.
In the meantime, well done Avon!

19:52 | jgunnsm2: Just looking at Goldman Sachs forecast of 15% unemployment in the US. That is going to a huge federal budget bill. In 2018 (I have not got 2019) social security budget $982 Bn. Assuming 5% unemployment if this is to rise to 15% then the unemployment cost is an extra $2Tn. The Defence spending described as discretionary was $623Bn and about 25% of that was procurement. One would think the defence procurement budget would likely to be cut deep for 2021 and beyond. Some military equipment and hardware might have a lifespan so have to be replaced. If I was able to speak to Avon Rubber I would like to know how much of the equipment they supply has a shelf life and to what date. Looks to me the US Peace Dividend is going to be large and how much that will affect Avon and the timeline is beyond my intel but I would want to know more details to help make a detailed investment judgement. What I do know from various presentations is that 90% of the new ballistics division is to the US military and Masks is about 65% but for my purposes will assume all markets will have a peace dividend. Current medium term outlook for revenue per annum for the masks piece is around $85M to $120M. New ballistics is $85M. Milk is about $50M. If military procurement is cut by 50% and all lines equally affected medium term revenue could be between $135M to $170M assuming milk is a constant. Sharecast has revenue £266M and profit £45M for year ending Sep 2021. If revenue was to be $170M for 2022 as a result of the peace dividend we are looking at a forward PE of roughly 30 at today's market cap and above 40 for revenue at lower estimates.
Anyone have more information on Avon Rubber or share thoughts?
