Dear Effortless Cool,

Thank you for your response. I am a foreigner investor (out of the U.K.). My broker is a foreign bank. So far they know nothing and they are now checking with their custodian. Very odd.
Thanks again for your prompt response.

This investor (PFH Capital) points out that CAMB have omitted any information as to gross margin from their latest trading update, in contrast to previous trading updates that they have issued.



The obvious conclusion, in my opinion, is that this information looks very goood (which would be in line with peers), so they have deliberately failed to disclose, instead only quantifying the reductions in volume (the bad news).

Remember, the institutions that have agreed to the offer, have just played the same card they always play. ( Standard practice).

They sell, at the very moment things pick up.

Time and time again the trick is to purchase stock from them for a song.

That’s just what the big man is doing here.


Now over to the FT.

The most valid point being that it’s normally a low margin high cost business.

It will only take a rise in interest rates to kill the show dead, and bust most of the players in the market.

I would go so far as to say it’s 50/50 that in 2 years time the offer costs HIM (not today’s shareholders who accept it,) dear. !!


On Balance ( not a holder here ):


The shares have risen a lump since the spring, but are clearly worth a bit more.

Are small shareholders being had over ?

The answer is in my view : No

For starters it’s AIM and any investor only needs to look at the chances of being taken to the cleaners by a large shareholder.

Next, all parties need to win, small shareholders are getting far more since the offer was announced

The way forward will be for the vote to fail, and shareholders demand it’s put up for open sale.

Then others can take a look at its low cost model, and buy the complete show off him and you for a higher price.

Not sure that’s not the game plan anyhow. !!


Just pray that happens prior to todays market steam turning to water.

Good luck.

Good spots, gdjs100.

No doubt the 'consideration shares' have been included to allow these three institutional investors to participate in the attempted pillage of CAMB's other shareholders.

Thanks for clarifying. I think that your conclusions are correct but that the outcome you describe is very unlikely. As JAF111 says, the market is telling us that the MBO is likely to succeed. It would be nice if we could flush out a rival bid but, with the CEO holding 40%, I think that is highly improbable.

As to financing, I assume that they are talking to PE and/or institutional investors, for whom £48m is small fry.

Hi Buffy, okay you got me :-), but I do think that Cambria is the motor dealer of choice just now for the private investor, and that the price may have got a bit ahead of itself as a result. Another pretty significant drop today...

Ta, stepone68. :-)

Yes, I got that but I think the answer is that, in the second paragraph, the word "Trading" is being used to mean "Profit", whereas the third paragraph is refering to sales volume.

Probably, it's a good trading update. It's a shame they did not express it in clear English. I'm sure management understand what's going on, but they need to convey it, without ambiguity, to present and potential investors.

Ten small-cap shares to tempt growth investors: Stockopedia set out to create a "growth stars" screen for Interactive Investor. Crucially, we were looking for companies with positive historical and forecast growth trends.
These measures are brought together in the Growth Rank score, which ranks the growth profile of every company in the market from zero (poor) to 100 (excellent). The other rank we used is the Stock Rank, which ranks each company for a combination of its quality, value and momentum, again based on common financial ratios. (Cambria tops the list)

graham, I think the discount to other car dealers will/should narrow the bigger we get. As the market cap gets bigger it will attract the attention of more/bigger institutional investors which in itself is self fulfilling.
With low priced oil attributing to lower fuel prices, a very low interest rate environment, it all bodes well for car sales growth. Also the raw materials to make cars has never been cheaper, the market is flooded with cheap steel, plastic is also cheap now with low oil. Car makers should be able to offer some mouth watering deals soon. Another factor not to be dismissed is the rising population in the UK. Recently we have had a large influx of immigration, most of them would have been adults of drive-able age. Personally I can't see the end of growing car sales for quite a bit of time yet. In fact because of the above, when it filters down, car sales will BOOM.
