Posted at 05/12/2024 10:15 by martinmc123 FUTR – Future plc3* Future plc the global platform for specialist media, posted FY24 results for the year ended 30 September 2024 this morning. Revenue was flat year-on-year at £788.2m (FY 2023: £788.9m), with +1% organic growth, offset by adverse foreign exchange (mainly USD). Profitability was in line with expectations with a 28% adjusted operating margin reflecting investment from the previously announced Growth Acceleration Strategy (GAS), resulting in an adjusted operating profit decline of (13)% to £222.2m (FY 2023: £256.4m)...from WealthOracle wealthoracle.co.uk/d |

Posted at 30/5/2024 16:19 by sajad37 FuturesStrengths The company's EBITDA/Sales ratio is relatively high and results in high margins before depreciation, amortization and taxes. The company's share price in relation to its net book value makes it look relatively cheap. Given the positive cash flows generated by its business, the company's valuation level is an asset. Analysts covering this company mostly recommend stock overweighting or purchase. The difference between current prices and the average target price is rather important and implies a significant appreciation potential for the stock. The group usually releases upbeat results with huge surprise rates. Weaknesses As estimated by analysts, this group is among those businesses with the lowest growth prospects. The potential for earnings per share (EPS) growth in the coming years appears limited according to current analyst estimates. The firm pays small or no dividend to shareholders. For that reason, it is not a yield company. For the last 12 months, analysts have been regularly downgrading their EPS expectations. Analysts predict worse results for the company against their predictions a year ago. Over the past twelve months, analysts' opinions have been revised negatively. The price targets of analysts who cover the stock differ significantly. This implies difficulties in evaluating the company and its business. |
Posted at 28/5/2024 06:02 by dudishes G'day,The analyst data quoted in Dec has been reduced further by 7% to £14.43 from £15.61. Still positive yes? Who does one believe? DYOR, check the accounts. There are savvy posters on this thread, some can actually read accounts. To precis, forget the past. FCL good. Undervalued, in theory. Transaction in own shares, quite normal especially as divi is nought. Borrowings, quite normal to preserve cashflow and enhance the bizz expand. MWL, savvy (I follow wrt), reduced below the threshold, a good sign. Downside:- Qube (I also follow), increased short? Debt. Daytraders like me taking profits! cheers |
Posted at 14/5/2024 19:26 by smokeyjohnson Just seen this old news from the 2nd May about Moneysupermarket and Autotrader entering a strategic partnership. Slightly surprised that this hasn't had some sort of detrimental effect for #FUTR through the GoCompare ownership. Or maybe it's not relevant. |
Posted at 14/5/2024 15:02 by triktrak Deutsche Bank predicts rerating in the FutureDeutsche Bank has begun coverage of Future (FUTR), saying the media group is due a ‘material rerating’. Analyst Gareth Davies started the publisher of Marie Claire and The Week on a ‘buy’ recommendation with a £21.20 target price as the shares gained 5%, or 41p, to 871p. Davies said the group has ‘four high-level verticals’, including games and entertainment, lifestyle and news, wealth and savings, and business-to-business He said the valuation ‘stands out’, especially in relation to the ‘potential value’ of GoCompare, which it acquired in 2020. ‘We firmly believe the pressures which the group has faced have been cyclical, not structural, and against a backdrop of improving consumer sentiment in both the US and UK, we see scope for a material rerating over the next 12 months,’ said Davies. ‘The recently announced growth acceleration plan, in combination with newer verticals, more efficient monetisation in the US, and of global social media audience, provide self-help upside that should accelerate recovery growth, particularly in the US.’ hxxps://citywire.com |
Posted at 26/4/2024 14:09 by red ninja Investors's Champion tip sheet comment 4/4/24hxxps://www.investor Future: why so cheap? Future (AIM: FUTR), which calls itself the global platform for specialist media and also combines Go.Compare, the financial services comparison company it acquired in 2020 for £594m, updated on trading for the six months ended 31 March 2024. Future owns more than 230 well-known brands such as Country Life, Homes & Gardens, Decanter, Money Week and plenty of technology and gaming titles. It acquired Money Week through the acquisition of Dennis Publishing for £300m in 2021. The return to growth in the current year has been driven by a strong performance in Go.Compare, alongside good growth in B2B, and a resilient performance in Magazines. This has been offset by a more challenging performance in affiliate products and digital advertising. There is lots of marketing speak in the update around the “reorganisatio They also stated how “cash conversion in the half has been strong” but gave no indication of what this is and indeed the period end net debt position, which was £327m at the 30 September 2023 year end. Despite the lack of detail, the market was clearly reassured with the news that Future is “on-track to deliver on expectations for FY 2024”, pushing the shares up 16% to 695 pence and market capitalisation to £800m. By our reckoning statutory free cash flow in the financial year to 30 September 2023 was £159m (the results gave adjusted free cash flow as £253m, which conveniently ignores interest and tax!), which equates to a highly attractive free cash flow yield of c16% based on an enterprise value of £1 billion. Forecast adjusted earnings of 121 pence for the year to September 20204 result in a PE ratio of only 5.7x, which suggests the market has little faith in forecasts and indeed the longer term outlook. The shares are 80% down on the highs hit in August 2021, when the market capitalisation was over £4 billion, as it basked in the glory of an acquisition boom under former CEO Zillah Byng-Thorne, who stepped down in 2023. If the future isn’t half as bad as the market clearly fears, there could be another good recovery story here and as we commented in our earlier article here, with appealing brands and cash flow it certainly looks vulnerable to a bid. |
Posted at 04/4/2024 07:12 by rimau1 Yes, returning to net growth in H2 as forecast. This is very good news, the price action here recently clearly showed the market did not believe that futr would return to growth in 2024. The golden nugget in todays update is the recovery in US direct advertising squirrelled away towards the end. This update could not have been much better IMO. Ridiculous valuation priced for failure. |
