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.

Where did you hear that and is that the whole Engineering Group (UK & Int). What price?
Posted at 13/9/2024 10:30 by c3479z
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 ?

Engineering is having a better year but it is cyclical. There are no great synergies between the different engineering businesses although they have tried hard to find them. Once broken up the prices they should get for engineering are probably higher now than at any stage in the last 5 years. Cashing in now seems a good strategy. Specialty Ag is at its low point and would fetch a poor price if sold now. It makes sense to try and build it up and wait for the US cattle herd cycle to turn. I'm hoping a good price for the engineering division could mean a share buyback by tender.

So it was Jupiter exiting their entire position of 4.75m shares on Friday. This appeared as two trades of 4.75m for some reason, both at 115p per share.

This is such an unusual situation that I suspect the FCA might have other concerns. CARR had been an anomaly as a listed company in that it derived over 70% of its revenue from non-wholly owned businesses. The issue with the audit of Carrs Billington Operations highlighted that a substantial part of the business was not under CARR's control. I am no expert on the listing rules but generally, listed companies need a substantial majority of the company's operations under their control. Carr's escaped the Stock Exchange/FCA taking much notice of the company's unusual corporate structure for over 20 years. Now the FCA will be looking at the application for a restoration of the listing and maybe considering that CARR needs to issue a new listing document. If so that would entail considerable expense and delay. It may even be the case that the company could switch to AIM which would not have been possible previously under the AIM rules due to the structure of Carrs Billington. I really hope CARR's advisers and the FCA can sort the situation out swiftly for the sake of shareholders.

The latest delay (the third) in the release of Carr’s long overdue results for the year to September 2022 is highly embarrassing and reflects poorly on the stewardship of Peter Page, the ex-Devro ceo, who took over as chairman at the start of 2020.

The delay in the release of the accounts means that the company’s shares have had to be suspended since January 4th.The initial plan was to have the results published “as soon as possible” in January. That deadline was then shifted to February 14th and has now been pushed back to “no later” than February 27th which is the same day as the company’s long delayed annual general meeting to approve the accounts for the year to September 2022. So much for shareholders having time to read the report and accounts before the agm vote.

The delay in the release of the 2021/22 accounts has been portrayed as a due to technical difficulties resulting from a need for a separate audit of an associate company that was sold as part of the disposal of Carr’s low margin agricultural supplies division. The company insists that trading for the last financial year and the first half of 2022/23 has “been in line with management expectations”, whatever that means.

However, the delay in publishing the accounts, together with the long delay in implementing the strategic review which led to the eventual sale of the agricultural supplies division, has left shareholders frustrated. The arrival of Christopher Mills’ Harwood Capital on Carr’s share register less than four months ago, suggests that Carr’s lacklustre performance has finally started to attract the attention of potential predators/activist investors.

Since Page took over as chairman three years ago he has been through two chief executives and took on the role of executive chairman in October 2021. He steps down to become chief executive after this month’s agm, when Tim Jones, the former chairman of one time stock market high flyer Treatt, takes over as Carr’s chairman.

The latest trading update, released with news of a further delay in the publication of last year’s results, made a depressing read. After a good start in the early part of the current financial year trading had become “more challenging” with lower volumes of feed blocks sold related to weather conditions in both the USA and UK markets, and “competitive pricing for tenders in the engineering division”.

This hardly suggests that the slimmed down Carr’s is going to be quickly transformed into a high margin growth stock. Hopefully, finding a new chief executive to replace Page will be a top priority in the new chairman’s in-tray.
