21/4/2022 11:33	libertine: Brickmakers enjoy unrivalled pricing power in booming new-build market The latest trading updates from two listed building materials producers - Ibstock (IBST) and Brickability (BRCK:AIM) - shows investors that the market for new homes remains in rude health despite concerns over affordability. Demand for materials is so strong that suppliers can recoup all of their increased costs by pushing through price increases to developers. hxxps://www.sharesmagazine.co.uk/news/shares/brickmakers-enjoy-unrivalled-pricing-power-in-booming-new-build-market Read Full Thread Follow Reply
23/2/2022 19:27	m_kerr: damanko - the key for me is you have to take a 10 year view (they have 30 years of clay reserves IIRC). there will be ups and downs but they have a strong market position and limited competition, therefore they will sell a huge amount of bricks in the coming decades (anything up to a 2 million house deficit in the UK). plus of course steady demand from repairs, extensions and maintenance. i like that they have been investing to automate and keep costs down. the very significant share buyback is a huge vote of confidence in the business IMO.

22/2/2022 22:45	damanko: MK, I said it 6 years ago, and now you've said pretty much the same too... I sold half my holding 2 years ago when it got up to £3.35, if it reaches that price once again the other half will go. Then, when the next LSE downturn arrives (inevitable, of course...), and Forterra gets hammered like the rest of the market, I'll simply buy again, at a bargain price. Because fundamentals don't really change, certainly not in the housing market. What changes is the idiotic market movers in the LSE stroke City of London. Simples... Read Full Thread Follow Reply
21/2/2022 22:02	m_kerr: IMV this is the smart way to access investment returns from the housing market. no exposure to land values, no debt, and it has pricing power. very little risk of the product becoming obsolete. the industry is in a far better share for investors than it's been in many years. i say BUY Read Full Thread Follow Reply
08/2/2022 14:38	crispfin: Its amazing to me that even with the buyback, the share price is down 7.5% over the past 5 days. At least it means the buy back retires more of the share count and will be more powerful for remaining holders! Read Full Thread Follow Reply
26/1/2022 14:22	npp62: I held IBST with FORT some time ago but decided on FORT only as I wanted to diversify a little more but may revisit IBST. I can't see why FORT would be much different to IBST results wise. Are their balance sheets comparable? Particularly levels of debt (should there be any) However I accept debt isn't a problem as long as it's being serviced without stress. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
27/8/2021 03:40	thrumptasious: With the four years of losses, the purchase price and decommissioning costs for Swadlincote this has been an expensive acquisition for Forterra. The half year results are not great for Forterra precast business and as you say the market has grown………Forterra core business is clearly brick which is what they should focus on.

11/2/2020 20:37	bogdan branislov: I am a Forterra shareholder, multiple six figure. I have been following discussions here. Whenever anyone posts negatively it is usually because they are either shorting, not the case here, shorting Forterra would be insane, or an individual is trying to convince themselves that they are doing the right thing. I invest full time, my annual average returns are over 27% pa compounding since May 2009, almost 14x increase based on share price growth and divis alone. There are others in the UK with better records no doubt, but if if my performance was a golf handicap, then I would play off a minus figure. Enough about me, on to Forterra. Fort has suffered a little over the past 3 and a bit years, like many in the construction and construction materials sector. Better times now lie ahead, but watch out for the conventional land holding large house builders. They have a poor record at judging cycles and are misjudging this housing cycle which could run another decade. Their land holdings are not large enough, in most cases, once house prices in the North catch up a little, happening now, house prices won't increase much more, but land prices will. As the large builders pile in for land together the price of land will accelerate, eroding builders margins beneath them, even as their outputs continue to grow - not a problem for Fort though. Not all parts of Fort's business are firing on all cyclinders, but, brick prices are going to increase. UK brick supply is finite and yes, bricks can be brought in from Holland, but bricks don't travel well as they are physically heavy for their price, the transport price is proportionately high, once volumes from Holland begin to increase, Fort and the other UK brick makers will raise their prices. Add to that the new production facility and the outlook s strong for Fort. One of the things that has served me well as an investor is examining the balance sheet equity of a company during challenging phases, or if bump or two in the road appears. Fort's shareholder funds, also known as balance sheet equity, also known as net assets, have grown strongly every year. This company has great underlying strength, no doubt about that. The PE ratio is about half the average for the mid cap index, Fort is soon to enter the mid cap index and yet it is a far stronger business than the average mid cap, at half the average earnings ratio, how remarkable is that. Earnings growth is over prioritised. I am not saying that growth does not matter, it does, but earnings growth is less than half the story, balance sheet equity growth is more important as it reflects the shareholder funds. Earnings growth without balance sheet equity growth is a sham. Balance sheet equity growth while earnings growth is flat is still very positive. Anyway, Fort will pile on the earnings growth again shortly, in the meantime the shareholder funds have been growing very strongly. This overriding importance of balance sheet equity growth, not many investors realise that, it was Ben Graham's most important lesson and yet it is rarely discussed now. Fort is a compelling buy, no doubt about that, and an honest up front business as well, the management talks to shareholders straight, just what I like to see. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
12/8/2019 17:50	damanko: Evening Thrump. Did you note the article on Sirius in yesterday's Sunday Times business section? Funds are drying up, backers appear to be either pulling out or postponing decisions on whether or not to invest. And by invest I mean putting cash in to enable the drilling project to continue. Many 'small' i.e. private investors have taken a bet on this company, I just hope (at this time) they have invested money they can afford to lose. Back on FORT topic, since flotation it's been quite a contrary share, the market may get hammered, and on that day FORT share price may well rise. And the same in reverse. As discussed previously, you don't rate Bison, I'll give things a year or three to see whether your posts on that subject bear merit. The Forterra dividend bearing in mind my buying price is more than quite acceptable, and for the medium term future I'll continue to reinvest them. As is always the case, time will tell. D.
