Should see some strengthening of the share price in the run up to the interims next Wednesday.
Trouble is, no matter how good they are and how positive the statement is, l bet the share price drops from there on the basis Brexit must mean bad news is round the corner.

Dixons Carphone racked up some healthy gains on Thursday as Credit Suisse initiated coverage of the stock at ‘outperform217; with a 12-month 420p price target, implying a one-year total shareholder return of 30%.

CS argued that Dixons Carphone was a rare example of a successful retail merger, pointing out that since the combination just over two years ago, it has gained significant market share in its core markets and demonstrated robust operating and best-in-class profitability metrics in what is widely considered to be one of the toughest sub-sectors in retail – consumer electricals retailing.

“Despite robust like-for-like growth and profit delivery this year, shares are down 33% year to date on investor concerns about weak sterling and demand next year.

“We argue that Dixons Carphone will pass through higher costs, while demand is likely to remain stable and the flux in the industry should help the company gain market share in the UK and Europe.”

The bank reckons Dixons can deliver 3-4% top-line growth and strong cash generation over the next four years thanks to additional benefits from planned synergies, the ongoing store optimisation and focus on Services.

I can't see anyone giving up their gadgets, phones and 4K HDR TVs.

I tend to find white goods as necessities and will be bought as needed.

[pal44] 11/11/2016 11:17

Thing is people will have less govt hand out so will put off buying white goods .. I think.

[jondev] 09/11/2016 08:25

This could be a good time to buy folks!

This has gotta bounce soon, easy 20% gain to be had.

Rather odd price action over the last month and now almost back to the post brexit crisis level.
I am very tempted but would like to see a turn in the chart first.

This is going nowhere but down, consumers now so strapped for cash, credit debt reaching impossible levels, and the only glimmer is white goods, this co. Like many others relying upon imported appliances either absorbs the costs or raises them, even with hedging of currencies in place, the £. move has wrongfooted many cos.!

Market makers happy to take out the stop losses of loose holders and get their shares on the cheap. What a bargain good British companies are for any foreign buyers on the prowl now.

The markets are going to be unstable for a few more weeks until this election is over. Some shares are more unstable than others.

Products sourced in Dollars from Asia. DC.will have taken defensive steps pre brexit to hedge currency, short term exchange rate will be having no impact on their profit. Market taking a medium to long term term view. Expect the share price will continue to swing, until the fog will lifts on Brexit and single currency. Share price doesnt reflect value got a healthy dividend and with interest rates at an all time low DC. wont be short of buyers.

Dixons Carphone share price fall presents attractive entry point
The fall in Dixons Carphone (DC) shares are an ‘attractive217; entry point as levers for growth at the electronics giant are still to be pulled.

Liberum analyst Adam Tomlinson retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of 470p on the stock following a presentation from Dixons Carphone. The shares fell 3.1% to 361.7p yesterday.

‘We came away from last week’s presentation confident that management can continue to drive strong trading in Dixon Carphone’s core UK and Ireland retail business,’ he said.

‘The focus on self-help, innovation and continual improvement is evident across consumer electronics and mobile and underpins the plan to continue taking market share, drive profitability and build a business for the long-term.’

He added that there were ‘multiple levers for growth through further store improvements, structural support from the underlying product cycle, continued development of the multi-channel proposition and the significant growth opportunity within consumer services’.

The shares are down 25% year-to-date and ‘offer an attractive entry point into high quality, long-term growth’.
