I know, right. Earnings per share only up 23% - how terrible! (I’m kidding: great work.)

Peel Hunt: ‘Quality compounder’ Diploma deserves a higher valuation

Industrial machinery group Diploma (DPLM) is a ‘quality compounder’ that is too lowly-rated, says Peel Hunt.

Analyst Lauren Baker Iguaz reiterated her ‘buy’ recommendation and increased the target price from £51 to £54 on the stock, which was trading down 0.5% on Thursday morning at £39.52 and is down 7% this year.

A ‘deep dive’ on the company revealed that there is a ‘considerable valuation gap as Diploma evolves from a top-class distributor to a quality compounder supported by acquisitions’, Baker Iguaz explained.

She said that M&A growth of 5-10% would deliver earnings increases of 14-27% in 2027.

‘Diploma is a high-quality business with a track record of delivering solid growth and high returns through its organic strategy supported by its M&A proposition,’ she said.

Long $DPLM! I’m hoping the company has decades of growth ahead of it!

Apologies, over complex. I was just trying to relate the sudden price drop specific to DPLM yesterday with the announcement of a 50% tariff on Canadian metal imports. Seals gaskets etc need the main metal product to function. Anyway I bought more. Diploma will certainly outlast the pilled-up senile barbarian the US have voted in to save them.

Looks decent. Sharescope forecasts show a slowdown of sorts in 2026 and 2027 with high or mid single digit EPS. DPLM usually beats.

Shore Capital downgrades Diploma


Diploma (DPLM) has been downgraded by Shore Capital due to its full valuation as the business becomes more resilient.

Analyst Akhil Patel reduced his rating from ‘buy’ to ‘hold’ with a target price of £45.36 on the Citywire Elite Companies + rated industrial machinery group, which fell 8% to £41.74 on Tuesday after disappointing full-year 2024 results.

The group said full-year 2025 has started well but growth will moderate year-on-year. Patel said the group will benefit from structural growth drivers and increasing its market share as it continues with its strategy to become more geographically diverse.

‘Diploma’;s business model is based on offering technical sales advice under exclusive supply agreements for essential and critical opex-driven products,’ said Patel.

‘The group is also now much more resilient and well diversified given its expansion into attractive end markets, which are backed by long-term structural growth drivers.’

Diploma’s (DPLM) FY24 results have come in a nudge ahead of expectations and in line with the financial model – in this case, a very impressive result in our view.

Although the environment remains tough, we (and management) expect a similar outcome for FY25 and we anticipate minimal changes to consensus. This consistent delivery justifies DPLM’s premium rating and we reiterate our ‘Outperform’ rating.

Phil what do you mean by some knew? You knew if you wanted to. The trading updates pointed to results that would not beat expectations, and you knew the share price had put on 50% in a year, meaning it was due a fall if results didnt warrant it. Since gaining 4600p the shares have looked very high. As it is Diploma I would hold - you get a div and a great company that will maybe next year produce results to warrant a higher price. it wasn't so long ago this was a mid-cap... hxxps://www.ii.co.uk/analysis-commentary/journey-small-cap-share-ftse-100-12-years-ii528995

Diploma plc posted a Q3 trading update for the nine months ended 30 June 2024 this morning. Performance was strong and in line with expectations with organic revenue growth of 6% ytd and reported revenue growth of 13% ytd. The operating margin was strong and in line with expectations, management continue to expect a FY operating margin of around 20.5% with FY EPS growth of around 15%. This is pretty impressive stuff and it is little surprise that the share price has been in a solid rally over the past couple of years. The main cloud for the investment case is that valuation is not particularly helpful anymore. The forward PE ratio is over 27x and bottom decile for the Machinery, Equipment & Components sector, PS ratio at 4.56x is bottom quintile. However, valuation is not yet prohibitive, the trailing 12-month PE ratio has traded on significantly higher levels in recent years. There is still a lot to like here. BUY...
