Hallen get is that acquisition is not going to be EPS enhancing this year.If mgmt believe they can extract synergies and cross sell organic growth in FY2019, the brokers covering FLO don't seem convinced.

Probably have a glass ceiling at 170p for some time.
For the present, it would just be nice to test it!

Placing was recently easily completed at 170p, so Flotech comfortably under that price now and rather cheap.

Has the current share price factored in the new placing. I've been looking at FLO for some time and would value any opinions from LTHs as I'm considering putting some into ,y SIPP. TIA

Don't know why I was irritated. I can add now at a lower price now than the placing price! It happens quite often, perhaps because there is some selling by placees (probably at a higher level). Score one for the PI! :-)

price target raised by analysts at FinnCap from GBX 2.05 to GBX 2.15.

Yes, a positive sounding acquisition. Irritating dilution, and always a bit annoying when the "professional" investors get a discounted look in and I do not. But understandable I suppose, the acquisition didn't warrant the cost of an open offer.

Should be overall earnings enhancing although hard to be sure given the insubstantial detail on the benefits (though I am sure the "professional" investors got a nice prospectus giving some more helpful information).

Steady buying suggests this is moving higher. Break of 200p just a matter of time.

"PBT in line with expectations(+43%) with +8% Organic growth. "Opportunities for further significant expansion have continued to be presented". "Order books for early 2018 are well ahead of the same point last year." PBT in line (+56%). That will do. Happy!

So a PE of about 13 for this year, and excellent growth in earnings. Seems very reasonable! :-)

Trading Update

Group revenue for the year ended 31 December 2017 increased by 45% over 2016, and c.43% in constant currency. After removing the effects of acquisitions, organic sales growth in the year is c.8.0%, which is consistent with the organic growth seen in Q4. For those Profit Centres with a greater bias towards project based work, and, Primary Fluid Power (PMC) and Orange County (Process), order books for the first part of 2018 are well ahead of the same point last year. The short-term outlook therefore remains encouraging.



Divisional Gross margins remain broadly in line with the prior year. As a result of a weightier mix towards the generally lower margin PMC operations, a slight reduction in overall margin % is projected, therefore, the Board expects underlying* Profit before tax for the year ended 31 December 2017 will be in the range £8.6m to £8.8m, which is in line with market expectations.



Net debt at c.£14.7m is marginally above market expectations. The key drivers behind this variance are an increase in stock balances, driven by the desire to maintain service levels to our customers, in the context of a substantial lengthening in industry wide lead times during the second half of 2017, and a continued investment in operational and IT resources to support our developments plans for 2018 and beyond. This includes the refurbishment of the Shared Logistics Centre (referred to below).

Massive lack of news flow here. Last rns almost 3 months ago. It would be nice if the company gave a Q4 and FY update. Maybe it's coming?

The second trading week of 2018 doesn't seem to have quite the interest for FLO as the first week. Still wondering if FLO will figure in any January 2018 commentary from Simon Thomson in the IC. FS

I am pretty sure they are eyeing up several acquisitions. It is part of their raison d'être in a fragmented industry.

What is more important to me is that they seem to have a good handle on getting some of those acquisitions into good shape - rather like a well run supermarket instead of a bunch of variably well-run corner shops. That makes for real synergies rather than just a centralizing of admin and executive plus a bit of cross-sales.

Yes alter ego - the diverse customer base is an attraction to this share. Terry Smith of Fundsmith in particular likes Companies that are involved in lots of small individual transactions across a diverse range of customers. A while back there were significant director purchases at about £1.40 and a fund raising at a similar level which I think currently underpins the price. Simon Thompson has been tipping this share for a while - and then of course we have the progressive dividend. It will be interesting to see the levels of growth for the Power Motion Control and Process divisions compares with the Q3 update. They might even be eyeing up another aquisition. The sterling exchange rate movement isn't causing any harm. I'm tending to think no news between trading updates means business as usual. This business has been around since 1983 so it is no fly by night outfit compared with many AIM Companies. Fils
