Re today's AGM statement...

"continues to win new clients and to raise funds for its clients."

By my calcs a net gain of 3 new clients (2 if one includes unconfirmed loss of DGOC mandate)

NEW CLIENTS (7)
Davenport Resources (ASX:DAV) - CNKS appointed UK broker
Getech Group (GTC) - CNKS appointed Nomad/sole broker (replace WH Ireland)
Pelatro (PTRO) - CNKS appointed Nomad/sole broker (replace finnCap)
Caribbean Investment Holdings Ltd (CIHL) - CNKS appointed Nomad/sole broker at IPO (no funds being raised on admission)
InfraStrata (INFA) - CNKS appointed Nomad/sole broker (replace Allenby Capital as Nomad/joint broker; replace Arden Partners as joint broker)
One Media IP Group (OMIP) - CNKS appointed sole broker (replace Panmure Gordon)
NextEnergy Solar Fund Ltd (NESF) - CNKS appointed sole financial adviser/joint broker (alongside Shore Capital)

LOST CLIENTS (4)
Sativa Group (NEX: SATI) - CNKS replaced as corporate adviser by Peterhouse Capital
Angling Direct (ANG) - CNKS replaced as Nomad/sole broker by N+1 Singer
GCP Asset Backed Income Fund (GABI) - CNKS replaced as sole broker/financial adviser by Investec Bank
Beeks Financial Cloud Group (BKS) - CNKS replaced as Nomad/sole broker by Canaccord Genuity

* as per post 3447, looks like Cenkos may also have lost DGOC as a client upon their move up to the Main Market

Are the new clients acquired of the same quality as the lost clients?



"the Company's revenues in the first five months of this year are ahead of the same period for last year."

The past 3 months has seen an abnormally high level of fundraising activity on the markets with many companies undertaking placings to bolster/shore up their balance sheets. Despite Cenkos revenues being ahead of the same 5-month period in 2019 (H1 figures below give context over a longer timeframe), the flurry of fundraisings seems to have largely passed Cenkos by. In such an environment I would be expecting Cenkos to not just outperform H1 2019 but H1 in several other years also. Time will tell.

H1 REVENUE
2011: £25.1m
2012: £20.2m
2013: £20.0m
2014: £65.2m (AA IPO)
2015: £53.1m (BCA Marketplace IPO)
2016: £15.3m
2017: £29.2m
2018: £18.1m
2019: £10.6m

Cenkos is acting as broker on a £17m placing/open offer for Inspiration Healthcare Group (IHC)...

I note that the Cenkos website lists the £69.4m Diversified Gas & Oil (DGOC) fundraising in May amongst its 2020 transactions.



As per posts #3419 & #3431 Cenkos acted only as nominated adviser on this transaction; the joint global coordinators/joint bookrunners were Stifel Nicolaus Europe, Mirabaud & Credit Suisse.

Details of the fees/commission to be paid to the joint bookrunners are detailed on pg258 (pdf pg261) of the prospectus for the Cancellation of admission of DGOC Shares to trading on AIM & simultaneous admission of DGOC shares to trading on the Main Market which was published on 13/5/20.



There is no mention of Cenkos in the document or any fee being paid to Cenkos as Nomad but one can only assume that that any fee paid will have been nominal. Inclusion of the DGOC fundraising on the Cenkos webpage for 2020 transactions might therefore be viewed as slightly misleading?

Also worth noting that Cenkos are no longer listed as an advisor on the DGOC website. Do we assume that their service agreement was terminated upon DGOC's move to the Main Market?

P Hodges is one of the last Cenkos rainmakers. But he has now left as well. For some reason he is still on company website. The website is pretty poor for a plc. Blanks, bits missing etc etc

Yawn.

Keep on digging.

Just like you said placing fees were never 5% - WRONG- and all your clap-trap about global de-equitisation - WRONG-

You just don't know what you are talking about.

You are henceforward filtered by me as your contributions continue to be totally misleading and wholly unreliable

One final comment on the ST article. Durkin: "our pipeline is good". ST also comments that "There is also money to be earned by raising capital for companies needing to bolster their balance sheets due to the impact of Covid-19."

Very true. There are almost daily news releases of new funds being raised by companies large and small but to date Cenkos do not appear to have joined the party. That is not to say that they don't have some large transactions up their sleeve but I can see no evidence of it yet whilst others appear to be making hay.

By my calcs, if you exclude the pre-Covid FRP Advisory IPO at the start of March in which £80m of new funds were raised, Cenkos have since raised just under £29m (excluding subscriptions*) in 6 separate fundraisings.

* Does anyone know if a broker earns a commission on funds raised by subscription which are often directors or other interested parties acquiring shares at the time of a placing to ensure that they retain the same %age interest in a company post-fundraising?

In the interests of transparency I believe it is also worth highlighting this excerpt...

"In addition, as broker to 100 companies, of which 78 are listed on Aim and 45 per cent have been clients for five years, Cenkos earns a recurring revenue stream from nomad, broking and research activities. This segment accounted for more than a quarter of last year’s revenue. New clients have been added to the roster this year, too."

Yes, by my calculation Cenkos have acquired 5 new clients so far this year, but they have also lost 4 clients, which equates to a net gain of 1.

2020 client gains:
NextEnergy Solar Fund Ltd (NESF) - appointed sole financial adviser/joint broker (alongside Shore Capital)
One Media IP Group (OMIP) - appointed sole broker (replace Panmure Gordon)
InfraStrata (INFA) - appointed Nomad/sole broker (replace Allenby Capital as Nomad/joint broker; replace Arden Partners as joint broker)
Caribbean Investment Holdings Ltd (CIHL) - appointed Nomad/sole broker at IPO (no funds being raised on admission)
Pelatro (PTRO) - appointed Nomad/sole broker (replace finnCap)

2020 client losses:
Beeks Financial Cloud Group (BKS) - replaced as Nomad/sole broker by Canaccord Genuity
GCP Asset Backed Income Fund (GABI) - replaced as sole broker/financial adviser by Investec Bank
Angling Direct (ANG) - replaced as Nomad/sole broker by N+1 Singer
Sativa Group (NEX: SATI) - replaced as corporate adviser by Peterhouse Capital

2019 also saw a net loss of clients including some larger clients such as Civitas Social Housing (CSH), European Assets Trust (EAT), Dods Group (DODS), Rosenblatt Group (RBGP), IG Design Group (IGR)...

Are the new clients being acquired of the same quality of those being lost?

Subscription only. Maybe in a few days. No real new info. Mainly a reiteration of his previous BUY recommendation.

I do however question the following excerpt in his article...

"Of course, the Covid-19 pandemic subsequently sent financial markets into turmoil, but founder shareholder Jim Durkin – who returned to the role of chief executive last summer – notes that “our pipeline is good, so I look forward to 2020 with tempered optimism.” He has a point as Cenkos has just pulled off a £69.4m capital raise for Diversified Gas & Oil (DGOC: 102p), the U.S. based owner and operator of natural gas and oil wells that moved its listing from AIM to the Main Board. Cenkos will have earned a chunk of the £3.3m placing fees."

AFAICS Cenkos only acted as Nomad on the DGOC fundraising; Stifel Nicolaus Europe, Mirabaud & Credit Suisse acted as joint global co-ordinators/joint bookrunners raising the funds so, as per my previous post #3419, Cenkos will likely only receive a nominal fee in relation to this. I do however stand to be corrected.
