Cadre Holdings' own press release is very interesting in how they're spinning this acquisition. They have focused on the safety angle of the businesses and said it gives them an entry into nuclear medicine. I also saw Cadre is based in Jacksonville Florida which is where the family who bought Carlisle United a year ago hail from. Carlisle United even hosted a delegation of business people from Jacksonville a few weeks ago. I think the link must have helped get this disposal over the line as there weren't many if any other takers for the whole division. Not even they took Chirton Engineering. The Tender offer will be welcome.

The rump CARR looks like it will be a nano cap with very volatile earnings. I am very surprised that management did not seek to sell off all of the business if it is not going to use the Engineering disposal proceeds to bulk up the continuing operations.

Great news and a Capital Return (CGT only). Chirton for small extra consideration. Well done Carrs and looks like a great future business. 👏👏👏

Excellent news - 70% of mkt cap accounted for by today's news and £70m to come via tender offer (equivalent to 74pps according to my quick calculations).

Not much ‘shareholder value’ yet? Let’s hope the Engineering sale is still on track and their is an announcement pre AGM?

AGM is at 10am in Carlisle on Valentine's Day. Hopefully some more disposals will have happened by then.

The latest Edison Report is out and well worth a read. Google Edison Carrs should work. Future objectives clearly stated?

I'd say no reason whatsoever. Wynnstay and NWF are in the same line of business as Carrs Billington which was bought out by Edward Billington. The remaining specialty agriculture businesses are two feed block manufacturing sites in Silloth and Ayr, Animax and the international feed block plants. I would expect some foreign,possibly US, animal nutrition business would be interested in acquiring the rump. Maybe the rump needs fattening up first with some synergistic acquisitions before a decent price can be achieved.

Is there any strategic logic for Wynnstay or NWF to buy out the rump CARR business post the sale of its engineering concerns?

I see the results used the word 'disposals' for the engineering division as no-one will want everything. Animax was a terrible acquisition which went wrong from the start. Total culture clash and unmanageable from 6 hours drive away in Cumbria. CARR can't even spell St.Edmunds right which shows what they think of it. Stanton where Animax is based probably doesn't even regard itself as Bury as the residents can shop in Tesco without going into the place. The feed block industry is still very fragmented. I can see the remaining businesses forming part of the likely consolidation in due course. A decent price for engineering and a cash return to shareholders via a buyback could see the shares heading towards 150p.

Carr's Group plc, the Agriculture and Engineering Group, posted decent results for the year ended 31 August 2024 this morning and the share price is up over 3.5% on the news. Revenues were up just 2.7% to £148m, but adjusted PBT grew by a more impressive 13.7% to £8.5m. The business has seen a gradual recovery from economic and climatic factors evident in existing core markets though the year and this positive momentum has continued into FY25...

I see Old Croft is now ‘under offer’. Good news for next weeks results.
We may well hear a positive update on the sale of Carrs Engineering.
Cautiously optimistic!! (Now)

Almost a month on from the trading statement. There's been no interest shown in the former head office and the price has been dropped to £750k. It could convert into a nice lifestyle hotel if anyone fancies it. Plenty of lawn for marquees etc. I suspect the newish board are finding the engineering assets to be a bit of a mixture hence the broadly in line comment. If you've dealt with Germany recently as I have, the economy seems to be seizing up and the famous German efficiency has disappeared. I wouldn't be surprised if Carr's German activities have been impacted. The US is probably alright apart from feedblocks with continuing regional droughts. I am convinced Engineering will be broken up and sold off piecemeal. Maybe they are close to making the first disposals. Still another 5-6 weeks until the final results.

I agree entirely with your comment. Very amateurish to use the word "broadly" and the market has responded accordingly. I should add it is ridiculous to have to wait over 3 months for the final results to be published. I had hoped that the Company was at last going in the right direction but I now have my doubts.

I don't particularly like the "broadly in line" comment, it almost always turns out to be very slightly below expectations IMO. And, also, why not state what expectations actually are? Annoying

Trading update. Things are progressing across the board. Strategic options for engineering although the hope is to sell it. Focused Agriculture strategy must be code for potentially selling off part of those activities. Surplus property includes the former head office which was put on the market for just £850,000 which sounds cheap for 2 acres in the centre of Carlisle but Hadrian's Wall runs through the grounds and the property is in a conservation area. Probably a planning battle to do anything other than converting it to luxury flats. The pension fund is in surplus so they're looking at a buy-out. Results in December but they're not very relevant compared to how they do realising cash from the assets up for sale.

not sure if it's an ambition or whether it's presently or shortly to go on sale...

Where did you hear that and is that the whole Engineering Group (UK & Int). What price?

rumour that the engineering side is up for sale?
includes their excellent specialised leading hazardous radioactive handling facility that ought to fetch a high price and has probably a unique position at Sellafield and limited competition.
would leave behind the agricultural division which looks a bit dull presently and needs reinvigorating.

Change of registered and head office. Normally when a company announces this it isn't of any significance. But it is with CARR. I suspect they have been based in the Victorian manor house for over 70 years. Obviously the company now has many fewer employees based in Carlisle and it's time to sell the property. It's a pity it's not on the banks of Lake Windermere but I guess they might get up to £2 million for it. Even paying rent on the new place there should be a cost saving.

CARR often experiences a jump in the share price the day after the dividend is paid as it has quite a substantial DRIP (Dividend Re-investment Plan). It may be that buying in a tight market has also triggered some speculative buying. Let's see.

Jump in price to a 9 month high. Is news of the sale of the Engineering division about to be released ?

They should move to Aim as part of this process.
