In line update and on track to revert to growth in H2


Trading so far in H1 has been in line with expectations, and G4M remains confident in the delivery of its medium and longer-term profitable growth strategy. Today’s AGM update indicates that results from this renewed focus on growth are expected to start in H2. We outlined the potential from the growth strategy in our last research note, confidence in which led us to upgrade our target price for a second time in quick succession. We re-iterate Buy.

Restarting sales growth in Europe now they know how to overcome the red tape.

Also price cutting from others seems to be over so G4M are happy to compete again.

More detail from Singers

Gear4music (Corporate). Has issued prelims and a positive growth strategy. On sales that declined 5%, adj EBITDA increased 34% to £9.9m or £7.8m pre-IFRS16, a 190bps margin uplift to 5.4%. Adj PBT improved £1.5m YoY to £1.1m (vs £0.4m loss LY) including a £0.2m non-cash FX charge. Given further progress was also made optimising w/c, with stock down £9m (25%), G4M delivered a £4.5m cashflow beat versus expectations prior to the pre-close. ND reduced £7.2m YoY to £7.3m, and by £17m over 2 years. A great performance and it still retains >£7m freehold property. Enhancements to its tech platform and distribution network in the last couple of years have increased the group’s competitive advantage. Following decisive actions to also improve margin and efficiency, G4M is therefore well-placed for profitable growth, and has refreshed its growth plans. These are built around 1) Transforming its platform, with AI at its core, 2) Enhancing its product offerings, 3) diversifying its channels to market, and 4) Expanding its sales verticals. With a lot of the investment and changes having already been implemented, this gives G4M a clear and profitable growth runway. G4M is confident in delivering further improvements in performance. We make no change to Mar’25 forecasts, which assume >150% EPS growth underpinned by improved margins and cost initiatives, which only delivered a part-year effect last year. On balance we see potential risk to the upside. We have introduced Mar’26 forecasts, assuming 55% EPS growth driven by <4% sales growth and a 30bps EBITDA margin uplift to 6.4%. We expect G4M to have nil ND. We also give an illustration for Mar’27, outlining scope for 20p EPS (70% 3-year CAGR) and inflect to net cash (£5m). G4M trades on 3.3x EV/EBITDA reducing to just 2.7x next year, helped by the substantial ND reduction. After rolling forward a year, and using an unchanged multiple of 5.0x EV/EBITDA, our 12 month target price has been upgraded by 23% to 245p. This is the second upgrade in 2 months and still leaves plenty of room for future rating expansion as confidence in profitability, leverage and growth builds

G4M has successfully improved margins, profitability and FCF. Alongside w/c optimisation, there has been a significant reduction in ND, which we now expect to reduce to nil in 2 years, addressing a pivotal issue for many investors. Enhancements to its tech platform and customer proposition have been made, and strategic initiatives are now starting to bear fruit. This gives management the confidence to refresh its growth strategy, which points to a 3-year EPS CAGR of c70%. Trading on 3x EV/EBITDA and with a PEG <0.2x now is the time buy, with a near 90% TSR on offer compared to our target price which has been raised for a 2nd time to 245p.

Singers comment "far too cheap for the market no.1 and key consolidator" is a bit out of date. Given the split of their turnover G4M's market should be seen as Europe including the UK and not just UK. The market no 1 is Thomann and by a very long way. We can't even be sure that G4M is the UK market leader as Andertons and Thomann don't publish the relevant figures. Its also no longer a key consolidator. The days of G4M taking large chunks out of bricks and mortar retailers is largely job done several years ago. G4M diversified with the purchase of av.com partly in recognition of this.

Today's announcement should be positively welcomed as a sign that things have stopped getting worse and they are now giving concentration to making a return on what they have. At the end of March they were still highly overstocked compared with pre-covid times so should have good availability over winter. Assuming that the Board expectations were in line with those of Progressive Research as published on the G4M website then they should be on target to make a small profit this year and next but still with a small net profit given the size of their turnover. Other than a bit of shoring up of the forecast nothing yet from the company to suggest much share price movement for a while.

"we are prioritising increasing gross margins and cost base reduction to improve profitability, ahead of revenue growth"

There does not appear to be anything company specific to move the price up over the next few quarters.
Online only retailers do appear to have a capacity to reduce costs in times of reduced growth.
I still feel G4M has the opportunity to grow when the time is right. Now feels like a time to cut costs and preserve cash.
We may need a change in sentiment in UK online retail to kickstart the G4M share price.
I have reduced my G4M holding to a small "keep an eye on stake"

the G4M 200ma is currently 103p.
G4M has not been above the 200ma since 11/2021 (900p)
G4M has remained above the 100ma since 02/05/23
50/100/200ma are all currently between 95 & 103p
The G4m share price appears well supported within this range.
L2 looks becalmed. Buy orders 90-95. Sell orders 100-105.
I tried a test buy today but could not get a price for £500 of stock. I was offered 97.75p for all the stock I had.
Could be the calm before a storm.
