Posted at 15/1/2025 16:03 by lord loads of lolly Judging by the share price, last Thursday's TU has calmed investor nerves (for now at least).Before its release, I said H&T looked priced to disappoint. Fortunately that hasn't happened - and with one less uncertainty to worry about as a result, the price has generally nudged up over the past week. It's still early days - and I've probably tempted fate writing this! - but I sense we could be in for a small, gradual upwards re-rate in the months ahead. The current P/E looks very undemanding (even in today's sluggish UK market) and the yield is decent. The main thing I'm still keen to know is how profits came in last FY, given the relatively late pledge book growth. Ultimately, this lending growth will boost the bottom line anyway. It's simply how much fell into the FY just gone and how much is still to come. Markets seem unusually wary of looking ahead at the moment. So I'm hoping for something significantly better than flattish profits for last year (notwithstanding an improved outlook for the current year, given the boosted pledge book). I'd also like to see more share buys from the BOD and have raised this in previous results webinars. I'll be making the same point this year if nothing's changed. Of course, the one other thing changing soon is H&T's year end date (30 Sept rather than 31 Dec). For the current FY, it'll publish results for the 12 months to 31 December 2024 in March as normal. Simultaneously, it'll publish unaudited comparatives for the 12 months to 30 September 2024 to establish a base for the new accounting reference dates. For the following year - being the first FY with the new YE date - statutory audited results covering the nine-month period to 30 September 2025 will be published in January 2026. At least this seems transparent, simply aiming to smooth out H1 v H2 seasonality. Rather than an attempt to move the goalposts in some smoke & mirrors cover up! |
Posted at 20/11/2024 15:28 by lord loads of lolly boonkoh - I agree few if any staff would be on minimum wage.But the Directors have previously said increases to minimum wage also have an impact higher up the food chain, as you have to remain competitive given the responsibility of the roles. That said, I find it odd that sentiment is so downbeat here and can only think investors are being cautious, given what happened on the retail side last Christmas. My (slightly contrarian) view is that things continue to remain tough for many and companies like H&T should actually benefit from this. And whilst the gold price has come off its October highs, it remains strong which is also a tailwind. |
Posted at 29/10/2024 08:30 by spob .Gold hits record high as rate cuts and Middle East tensions fuel demand Gains of 40% in past year spark predictions of rally to $3,000 a troy ounce Leslie Hook Financial Times 21 October 2024 Gold surged to an all-time high on Monday, fuelled by geopolitical tensions and central bank interest rate cuts. Bullion’s price climbed to $2,740.37 a troy ounce on Monday, representing a 40 per cent gain in the past year. The war in the Middle East, coupled with uncertainty over the outcome of next month’s US presidential election, have supercharged gold’s allure as a haven asset. “The outlook for gold is quite bullish,” said Joni Teves, UBS precious metals strategist, who has a $3,000-a-troy-ounce price target next year. “We think that investor holdings of gold have a lot of room to grow over the next year or so, and that should drive prices higher.” The anticipation of further rate cuts, with the US Federal Reserve next meeting on November 6-7, has also helped propel gold prices this year. Gold does not yield any interest, so prices typically benefit from falling interest rates. Many global central banks are in easing mode, with recent rate cuts in the eurozone, Canada and the UK, among others. Although physical gold demand has been dented by high prices in the top market China, buying from central banks has been very strong as they diversify their reserves away from the dollar. During the first half of this year, central bank buying hit a record high of 483 tonnes, according to the World Gold Council, the industry body. Western investors have also poured into gold since the summer, with five consecutive months of global inflows into gold-backed exchange traded funds during May to September. Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank, said the gold price drives include “the risk of fiscal instability and uncertainties surrounding the US presidential election” as well as central banks diversifying away from the US dollar. The outcome of the US election on November 5 between vice-president Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump is looking very close, adding to the uncertainty. “There are a lot of risks around the next few weeks, with the US election coming up,” said Teves. “We could be in for some choppy price action.” Silver prices have also climbed sharply, hitting a near 12-year peak, reflecting tight supply for the metal, which is used in electronics and photovoltaic cells, as well as a knock-on effect from rising gold prices. |
Posted at 13/9/2024 14:21 by lord loads of lolly jm6783 - in that case, care to explain why Investors Chronicle stated an ROE this March of 12.4%?www.investorschronic Admittedly not mid teens yet. But a long way off your claimed "low single digits". In your own post of 21st August, you admitted to H&T's ROE being 12%. So why suddenly claim it's "low single digits", when - by your own previous admission - it clearly isn't. |
Posted at 13/9/2024 13:58 by lord loads of lolly saint / jm - have you actually bothered looking at H&T's revenues & profits over the past 5 years?www.hl.co.uk/shares/ Whilst it's true the climate is positive for any pawnbroking outfit right now, H&T has done pretty decently. Revenues up from £129m to £220m between YE Dec 2020 & YE Dec 2023. Also up from 2019's pre-Covid £160m. PAT at its highest for 5 years in Dec 2023. It's true the share price has wavered this year. And - largely due to Covid when stores were shut - share price growth over 5 years has been marginal too. But I suspect any current weakness is down to investors being wary of a repeat of last Christmas, when the retail stock mix was clearly wrong. You can certainly level some blame at management for that. But they appear to have addressed it now. And barring any unforeseen glitches between now & Christmas, I'm confident H&T will have re-rated upwards by early next year. As for Albermarle & Bond, from memory Gillespie was only briefly in charge there. And that, after the rot had already well & truly set in anyway. A&B were abnormally dependent on a strong gold price. And when the economy began to improve & gold prices fell sharply, sadly they were stuffed. I say sadly, because every cloud has a silver lining. H&T's acquisition of A&B's pledge book for £8m was possibly their most astute move yet. Of course, the UK economy might eventually start improving. But with a gloomy-sounding budget due in less than 7 weeks' time & interest rate drops likely to be modest & staged, the outlook for pawnbrokers still looks fairly benign IMHO. |
Posted at 09/8/2024 14:11 by bend1pa lord loads of lolly - Surely you are experienced enough by now to realise, whenever that wretched phrase is used it nearly always implies mediocre to poor upcoming results.It's management's way of euphemising what they genuinely consider disappointment regarding their expectations as well as investors'.The other point is it's also ambiguous, as it can be open to different interpretations, so it's just unhelpful That's why management use it, so that they can avoid criticism of failing to warn investors. And of course it's management-speak, as so many Chairman/CEOs resort to using it like friggin' parrots when faced with the above scenario. |
