HubshankSanta left you a orange instead, a mouldy one at that, lol

[hubshank] 28/7/2017 08:13

lol, wasn't quite what I expected, have to admit. I was hoping for the Deluxe Monopoly set.

[montyhedge] 28/7/2017 08:12

285p my target coming weeks.

[younasm] 28/7/2017 08:11

Not bad price -- I was expecting a slight bigger fall to 305p..... still plenty of hours left in the day.

Mean anticipated EPS 6.1 actual 6.3 and the net debt seems to have improved.

[montyhedge] 28/7/2017 08:01

Ebitda down 2% that's what the fund managers look at.That's for a only a quarter as well.

Gavin Patterson, Chief Executive, commenting on the results, said
"BT has delivered an encouraging performance in the first quarter
of the year. We've made good progress in our key areas of strategic
focus: deliver great customer experience, invest for growth, and
transform our costs. In particular, I'd highlight the growth achieved
by our consumer facing businesses, helped by mobile.

IAS 19 pension deficit £7.6bn as at 31/03/17.

[younasm] 28/7/2017 07:36

I don't understand the £225m "warranty" charges --- hopefully that is not a surprise to major investors?

[younasm] 28/7/2017 07:34

Disappointing results --- lack of good news --- just going steady??Still some unexpected charges ?? Depends if these were flagged earlier??

[careful] 28/7/2017 07:28

Maybe well set up for the long haul.
but not yet.
EPS looks poor, but after 'adjustments' looks ok.
wonder what the market makes of it.

the 2 elephants, Italy and pensions, were not mentioned in much detail.

[dahhad] 28/7/2017 07:13

Well hub shank, did Santa bring what you wanted?

[lurker] 27/7/2017 15:30

Monty advised us that 255 was a fair value to buy at, but that it could fall to 215

Seems to be pushing past 315 now - what rot that man posts!

[hubshank] 27/7/2017 15:04

Solomon, It is certainly small!

I looked at the EPS and depending on what P/E ratio one applies will suggest the price. With a company doing ok 12-16 not unreasonable given the strong dividend and assets.


Q1 17/18 Mean EPS 6.1 Median 6.1

FY 17/18 Mean EPS 28.3 Median 28.4 x PE of 14 = 397.6

FY 18/19 Mean EPS 28.5 Median 28.3 x PE of 14 =399

FY 19/20 Mean EPS 29.5 Median 30.1 x PE of 14 = 413

No. Monty has gone quiet as the share price has (once again) moved in the opposite direction to his prediction.

[pacemaker1000] 27/7/2017 14:59

Is it a coincidence that the share price has gone up since Monty has gone quiet?

[solomon] 27/7/2017 14:44

Hubshank - I did. I downloaded it to be able to magnify the figures. The only bit I looked at was that consensus seems to point towards increasing divi.
