22/6/2010 16:41 | LONDON (ShareCast) - Specialist instrumentation and medical equipment supplier Hartest moved into the black in the year to March 31 after an improvement in the global economic climate following the previous year's downturn. Pre-tax profits for the period totalled £1m, compared with a loss of £865,000 the previous year, on revenues that climbed to £22.2m from £20.7m. Chief executive Geoff Spink told ShareCast that the company benefited from its niche positions in areas where customers were unlikely to cut back on expenditure. Hartest said that its instrumentation division saw strength in the underwater cable fault location business and its ophthalmic testing instruments business. Spink said that the underwater cable fault location business benefited from increased investment in telecommunications infrastructure, while the ophthalmic testing instruments business was helped by its exposure to a niche market. Businesses exposed to the automotive and general industrial sectors performed less well due to the continuing downturn in those sectors, but the company said it had seen an encouraging upturn in demand towards the end of the financial year. The medical services division 'achieved significant progress in increasing gross margins,' Hartest said. Spink said that the strong performance from several areas and the improvement in demand from the automotive and industrial sectors leave the company optimistic on future prospects. The medical devices division could see some weakness from public sector cuts in the UK, though Spink said that the company was likely to do 'better than average' in this area. Hartest, which suspended dividends during the downturn, will pay a final dividend of 3.33p, taking the full-year dividend to 4p. Chairman Leeming told ShareCast that the company intended to implement an 'aggressive dividend policy' in future | mail2 | |
22/6/2010 08:01 | I agree tiger this looks more than good value. Have u got brokers note yet please. snow | snowman10 | |
21/6/2010 18:40 | To be honest i cant see the government cutting research into surface coatings..:-) Not much happening here today ..not much happening anywhere on the AIM until the Government clarifies this CGT mess. | spec7 | |
21/6/2010 18:11 | Re government cuts you are wrong CT. Just about everything being cut they have run out of money. What about that new hospital that was due to be built under Labour now its not going ahead. | ls lowry | |
21/6/2010 17:02 | No cuts in NHS guys. Spec You forget increased margin, caused by better cost control. Look at the distractions they have had this year and another cost not to be repeated. Last year was one of the worst so any improvement is good news. Come on enjoy the party and watch for new number 2mrow. EPS FORECAST 20P? Thats my bet. ps no debt as well eh!!!!! Tiger | castleford tiger | |
21/6/2010 09:33 | What happens when govermment cost cuts kick in? Lots of their business health related and with all these cuts talked about future growth prospects are more uncertain now. | ls lowry | |
21/6/2010 08:49 | You just cant compare any companies results with the last year because it was an exceptionally bad year. Profit for this year are well up i agree but that like EKT is due to cost cutting not increased revenue so is that increase sustainable year on year ?? If you look at 2008 results T/O 21.7 EPS 9.0 JAN share price 60p Compared with today's .....T/O 22.2 EPS 8.1 JAN share price 60p | spec7 | |
21/6/2010 08:43 | Now we have a company turning over 20 million making MAYBE 1 million worth 7.5. Whats wrong with that? -------------------- Nothing at all Snow but its already trading on 11 times... LET CASTLEFORD TIGER (THE REAL ONE) ANSWER THAT. HTH made £5,000 in the first half on 9.42 million turnover Therefore the profit made was in 6 months not a year. This is not just how the company works but(loading to 2nd half) 1) Result of changes made 2) Improving market place. Like EKT the company only needs modest turnover improvement and it hits the bottom line. Margins are also improving. For the CURRENT year i can see EARNINGS as high as 25p a share. So i make that a p/e of about 3.5 with a dividend yield of 4% to boot. The p/e you quote is historic and a waste of time when changes are happening. The market has shown by increasing the price this morning that they want the shares. With 2 big holders now not getting this on the cheap, and hopefully a straight year with no distractions the company may even beat my target. i await house brokers forecasts for 2011 very best Tiger | castleford tiger | |
21/6/2010 08:30 | I sold mine for 50 odd pence, perhaps I should have kept them, they only cost me 20p. That 4p dividend would look great now. My guess is it's Elektron that have put pressure on Hartest to pay, Peter Gyllenhammar always seems to be after capital gains, not income. | arthur_lame_stocks | |
21/6/2010 08:27 | Thanks Valhamos. I'm not absolutely certain that leaving is the right decision but (a) in the present economic uncertainty I'm using a p.e. of 6.5 as a yardstick for calculating what I think is full value for a company and (b) I like recovery situations (mostly) for investments and HTH look to have gone beyond that stage at long last. All the best to you. | ansc | |
21/6/2010 07:15 | Good results. All the best ansc, but with improved prospects and a decent dividend yield I'm inclined to hold out for more. | valhamos | |
21/6/2010 07:05 | Now we have a company turning over 20 million making MAYBE 1 million worth 7.5. Whats wrong with that? -------------------- Nothing at all Snow but its already trading on 11 times... | spec7 | |
21/6/2010 06:47 | Agreed, super figures but, at 84p, fully valued imho. I'll be looking for the 'Exit' asap. | ansc | |
21/6/2010 06:03 | Excellent numbers.. | cyberpost | |
18/6/2010 16:31 | BASED ON VALUATIONS ALONE this is worth 100p a share. The attempt to steal this by EKT at 25p was scuppered. The profits have been there but like EKT EXCP items have taken the bottom line down. Now we have a company turning over 20 million making MAYBE 1 million worth 7.5. Whats wrong with that? Lets see what monday brings. best snow | snowman10 | |
18/6/2010 07:30 | Another point worth considering is that yesterday's 10%+ rise was fuelled by only just over 40k shares bought. Money Makers at work? Potential buyers should be very wary (imho). | ansc |
