23/1/2020 07:44	edmonda: Today’s Gear4music trading statement reports a buoyant end to the 2019 calendar year with sales advancing by 7%. Moreover, higher gross margins confirmed the benefit of a raised focus on profitable growth while fully invested logistics and warehousing augurs well going forward. Given a reassuringly positive message on full year FY2020 figures, valuation looks supportive. To us, a rise from the current 0.5x to 0.8x in Gear4music’s EV/sales valuation makes sense, implying a 450p share price. https://equitydevelopment.co.uk/edreader/?d=%3D%3DAM4YjM Read Full Thread Follow Reply
25/6/2019 18:44	cooltools: niggle - although we like to use the expression "investing in a company", unless you've bought at the IPO or bought directly, they are not spending "your" money. IMO, we are gambling our money on the share price. In return for that, we could vote at an AGM, in theory, but that's about it. If we buy sufficiently to move the share price, that can have an effect on the directors if they have a significant holding (I never "invest" in a company where they don't - it's the first thing I check). Good luck all! Read Full Thread Follow Reply
19/3/2019 12:23	mjmp1: Last year, there were 2 trading updates, 5th Jan and 6th March 2018. The final results came out on 15 May 2018. This year, one trading update on 4th Jan 2019 "for the four months from 1 September 2018 to 31 December 2018", when the Share Price dived. The financial year end is 28 Feb 2019. There may be a trading update coming soon. Results usually out in May in the past years. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
15/1/2019 18:35	s1zematters: Smith with his 'Mandy Rice-Davies' "Well he would say that, wouldn't he?" post above. I am almost certain to a very high degree Smith is not in contact with Blackrock, Old Mutual,Octopus Investment, AXA, Cannaccord and Jupiter. What does 'tidying up' even mean in the context of of a shareholding? Incredibly transparent post made by not an investor in G4M , but a mug punter that thought because the G4M share price fell from £6 to £2.40 that it was all of sudden a great aim growth company! What i don't understand is this, if Smith had this wanderlust Zeal and belief in G4M why did his first post on here not appear until the share price collapse on the profits warning couple of week back? Edmonda . Regarding the paid for report ; Thank you for highlighting this, i will give it a read and respond when i get a spare few mins. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
07/1/2019 07:48	tsmith2: The next year end is 31 March 2019 - NB this is a 13 month period, as the accounting year end was recently extended by a month, for operational convenience.Key points;Continued strong organic revenue growth at +41% (up from 36% in H1)Europe & RoW sales growth higher than UK (+47% and +36% respectively) - overseas sales are now close to overtaking UK sales - important, as a global sales opportunity deserves a higher rating for the share than just a UK businessCapacity constraints reached in York distribution centre - implies sales growth could have been higher. Plans to increase capacity in 2019FY2019 EBITDA to be slightly below FY2018 - this is not likely to go down well in current stock market conditionsSwedish distribution centre expanded - now have good spare capacity headroom at both European centresOutlook - strong sales expected for the rest of this financial year.Competitive pressures on margins are mentioned;Our focus has been on gaining market share in what has been a highly competitive environment, and in support of this target and following a period of planned investment, margins during the Period began to return towards historical levels. We are confident of further improvements as we progress through FY20.That sounds as if margins should improve going forwards.My opinion - I see the share price has fallen 30% in early trading, which looks a ridiculous over-reaction.The business model at G4M is to grow as fast as possible. Then the profit taps can be turned on later, because marketing spend as a percentage of revenues can be reduced. The market probably doesn't understand, or isn't even interested in this point right now.Long-term this share is a winner, in my view. However, at the moment, growth stocks get clobbered so badly if they put a foot even slightly wrong.Update: since writing the above, the share price has fallen by 50% on the day, on very heavy two-way volume. That is pretty astonishing, for an update that probably would have trimmed the share price by about 10%, in more normal markets.To reiterate, the key point to understand is that G4M's marketing spending being 8.4% of revenues last year, and that this is discretionary, and is being used to drive growth. The point is that when the business is, say 5 times its current size, then marketing will drop to a much lower % of revenues. That fall will drop straight through to profits. Hence it's nonsensical to try to value the business at this rapid growth stage, on a multiple of current earnings. We need to look forwards, and value it on a multiple of future earnings, once the net margin has gone up to something more like 5-10% of revenues.If you get that point, and are prepared to hold for the long-term, then I am pretty sure that today's price plunge to 255p makes a very nice entry point.

06/1/2019 14:59	tsmith2: This is Paul Scott's view of the update, I happen to agree with it. There must have been a large position being liquidated on Friday.
