Hogg Robinson qualifies for my modified PER portfolio:

•Averaging its earnings per share over the last 7 years produces either 6.8p or 5.5p (depending on whether you accept adjustments to reported earnings – see later). With a share price of 47.1p (MCap of £152m) the cyclically adjusted PER is either 6.9 or 8.6, significantly below average.
•Its Piotroski score is 6 out of 9.
•Business prospects are OK, if pedestrian.
•Managers have plenty of experience and loyalty to the firm. No evidence of lack of integrity, even if their reputation with staff is not the best.
•Generally stable: business operations remarkably stable over the last few years in terms of activity, revenue and earnings per share; financial structure is just about OK, but has some large liabilities in the BS.
......They do far more than book flights:
•Lend their expertise and experience to reviewing client travel policies, help tighten cost controls and implement processes that maximise staff compliance with company rules, e.g. reclaiming expenses, payment processing.
•Supply an online booking platform to allow client staff to self-book. About half of HRG’s income comes through this route.
•When travel is delayed or complications arise HRG’s experienced travel consultants help and reassure, 24/7.
•Tailor-make unusual travel arrangement, e.g. oil service companies need staff in awkward corners of the world
•In North America HRG manages the redemption of credit card loyalty programmes for financial institutions.
•Large meetings and events logistics, e.g. travel services for Cardiff NATO conference last year. Now has larger NATO contract.
•The Fraedom (originally Spendvision) division provides white-label expense and data management software for corporate clients to overlay with their own logos and specific characteristics.

The business model is to collect fees from the client company, acting as their agent, rather than receiving commission from airlines, etc. They rarely act as the principal when buying travel.

Clients stick with them for a long time. I imagine that there are high switching costs for them once their staff are used to using HRG systems. Thus HRG has multiyear contracts and consistently high client retention rate.
No single client accounts for more than 3% of client revenue.

HRG staff numbers rose from 4,868 in 2013 to 5,219 in 2014 because it won the contract to provide the Canadian government with end-to-end travel and expense management solutions (travel authorisation, online booking, expense claims and payment processing).

It turns out that the Canadian government do not need the quantity of activity that HRG anticipated and so profits in 2014/15 have been hit by excessive staff, which are now being released or reassigned.

In tomorrow’s Newsletter I’ll discuss the profits history( That will be followed by Piotroski factor analysis. The following day I'll look at the dreaded pension deficit (not as scary as it seems at first). Another day I'll look at prospects for the business, manager quality and stability.

Hogg Robinson Group plc, the international corporate services company, today issues its second Interim Management Statement for the year ending 31 March 2015, covering the period from 1 October 2014 to date.





Current trading and outlook



The Board continues to believe that HRG will deliver a full-year performance in line with market expectations.



For the four months to end January, revenue was 2% lower (up 2% at constant currency) versus the prior year. Client travel transaction activity was higher by 6% while client spend was unchanged (up 4% at constant currency). Overall, the Group's trading environment has remained broadly similar in the second half of the financial year to date to that seen in the first half, with conditions for our markets in North America and the UK positive overall, while markets in Continental Europe and in Asia remain generally weak.



We are pleased to have welcomed a number of new clients to our portfolio during the period while extending our existing relationships with others, including the UK Government and Novartis. Following a retender process, we have renewed and widened the scope of our contract with Volkswagen Group in Europe.



David Radcliffe, Chief Executive of Hogg Robinson Group plc, commented:



"We continue to make good progress against our strategic priorities and are confident that the actions we are taking will improve our long-term competitiveness and position us to benefit from the changes taking place in our industry. We expect market conditions to remain similar for the remainder of the year and anticipate a full-year performance in line with market expectations."

Not a bad contract win I guess:-

Hogg Robinson Group (HRG) has been appointed by Baker Hughes as the organisation’s global travel management partner.

The deal will see HRG cover 60 markets for one of the world’s largest oilfield services companies, including the UK and North America.

David Radcliffe, HRG CEO, said: “We are truly delighted to have been appointed as Baker Hughes’s travel partner. It is always very satisfying to win new business, and being appointed by Baker Hughes is something we are all very proud of.

"They have exacting demands of their travel management company and, like many of our clients serviced by our specialist HRG oil and gas sector teams, their travellers have to operate in challenging and dangerous conditions and require multi-layered and dynamic travel arrangements.”

I wouldn't say this is especially high risk with beta only 0.32, profit & divi growing consistently over 5 years. Revenue dipped in 2013, and there is debt attached but £1 looks more likely than not. Probably overbought short term but will continue to hold. DYOR etc

I've been watching HRG for a while and have made a short term 10% trade a month of so ago but I am looking at this with view of getting involved again.

I am seeing a couple of technical BUY indicators, which got me in at the end of February but I can't help noticing a mire of contradictions with HRG.

Yes, the lowers are becoming higher but the rallies do seem to be weak. I think that I was fortunate with the trade. We've had a good announcement (see the previous post) and the market just responded with a shrug, no volume and the price slid lower.

What does worry me is the massive debt that this company does seem to have and perhaps it's this that's depressing the price. As I say, there's a technical buy, with conformation, right now here and it will be interesting to see if the market picks up on this one. It had a nice little gap jump yesterday but in the history of this share this means nothing so it will be interesting to see what it does.

To be honest, I think that this share will start to do something soon. But does one need to be long or short on it? HRG has failed to get through 60 and there is the possibility of it slipping down to 52 or lower.

Just some doodles, that's all, whilst I am trying to work out what this chap is doing.

Strikes Landmark China Deal

HRG CHINA SIGNS LANDMARK DEAL WITH TRAVELSKY

Hogg Robinson Group (HRG), the award-winning international corporate services company, has signed a distinctive five-year agreement with TravelSky Technology Ltd. This deal grants HRG access to the full version of BlueSky, a software platform developed by TravelSky specifically for corporate travellers, which consists of a Computer Reservation System and online booking tool. With information such as booking details, corporate travel policies and traveller profiles synchronised across the booking system, this seamless integration will benefit clients by allowing them to realise cost savings through increased efficiency and productivity.

Owned by China TravelSky Holding Company, TravelSky Technology Ltd is the preferred GDS provider in China. This ground-breaking partnership deal between HRG and TravelSky designates TravelSky as HRG China's sole GDS provider for the next five years and grants HRG access to the full version of the BlueSky platform. BlueSky comprises a Computer Reservation System designed for travel consultants use and an online booking tool feature that allows clients to book trips with real-time information at their fingertips.

HRG China commented:

"We are very privileged to be able to fully utilise BlueSky's Computer Reservation System and online booking tool. Its ability to provide accurate real-time information makes it the most advanced travel booking system in the Chinese travel market. BlueSky's system enhancements will yield a number of benefits for our clients.

While traveller profiles, company profiles and waiting lists will increase our travel consultant's productivity by up to 20%."

As booking travel in China is a manual process for travel managers, this seamless integration of information between BlueSky's online booking tool and the Computer Reservation System will shorten the whole travel booking process for both corporations and their travellers, offering them increased convenience and a more efficient and quicker travel approval.
