People missing a trick here? The wet July has given an easy comp with last year. It's well known in the industry that when it's hot families go outside and do activities such as bowling / cinema when it rains.

"Aura Renewable Acquisitions (ARA) 7.5p Market cap. £0.79M.
"


NWT & ARA were my two most recent suggestions on this thread prior to today, copied above.

And here's their current state of play:-


1. NWT: 52.5p: +90.91% from 27.5p.

NWT's BOWL pattern is developing nicely.

And it looks good for a return to c. 250p within the next couple of years, which would also correspond well with fundamental analysis.




2. ARA: 5.75p: -23.33% from 7.5p.

I was too early here, but the developing bowl pattern is significantly stronger than c. ten months ago, and the fundamentals are very supportive of a bullish outcome.

BOWL forming over @ POD POINT //// LSE:PODP



Shares of U.K.-listed electric charging infrastructure firm Pod Point are expected to surge by 118% over the next 12 months, according to Bank of America. The investment bank increased its price target and predicted shares of the company would rise to £1.74 in a note on April 11. The stock is up by more than 20% this year and was trading at £0.78 on Thursday. Bank of America expects the recent rise in the number of EVs in the U.K. to bolster demand for charging infrastructure and benefit the London-listed stock's bottom line. U.K. electric vehicle sales registrations have surged by 15% year-to-date, with battery electric vehicles reaching record highs in the first quarter of 2023, according to U.K. industry lobby group Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders. The SMMT added that the increase suggests that " supply chain challenges slowly continue to ease " and production lead times will return to normal throughout the year. PODP-GB 5Y line Bank of America has raised its expectations for EV sales in the U.K. between 2023 and 2025 by 3-4% compared to its earlier estimates in February. Pod Point, with a market cap of £120 million ($150 million), manufactures its EV chargers and provides customers in the U.K. and Norway access to its electricity network. Since 2020, France's state-owned energy company EDF has been a majority shareholder with a 54% stake, according to FactSet data. Founded in 2009, the company also maintains hundreds of charging stations at supermarkets in the U.K. Last year, it became a "preferred" home-charge point supplier for German automaker BMW . "We still see a clear need for UK charging infrastructure, benefitting Pod Point as the #1 in the market, and with >100% potential upside, we reiterate our Buy," wrote BofA analysts led by Marianne Bulot in a note to clients on Apr. 11. BofA also said the discounted valuation for Pod Point shares is "unjustified" given the company's growth. The analysts forecast a compound annual growth rate between 50% from now until the end of 2025 and around 35% over the next decade....

After checking back what they said in the finals in December you make a very fair point, this is the relevant paragraph

Well insulated from inflationary pressures

· UK electricity usage costs are hedged to the end of FY2024, and the solar panel installation programme remains on track with 22 centres now completed or under construction (c.30% of Group's UK centres)

· Over 74% of revenues are not subject to inflation in cost of goods sold

· Food and drink costs represent less than 10% of overall costs with simplification of the menu minimising exposure to supply chain and food inflation

· Labour costs account for less than 20% of revenue at a centre level

It was food and staff costs that were my main concern.
Food inflation is running at over 10%, so even if they have simplified their menu, they will still be affected. So if food and drink is 10% of costs and they have gone up 10%, that adds 1% to overall costs.

Likewise staff costs have also increased and with the minimum wage being increased by 10%, I'd guess their costs must be around 8% higher. So if staff costs are 20% of revenue, then that adds 1.6% to overall costs.

Adding those costs together, you get overall inflation of 2.6%, which is below the like for like sales growth of 3.5%, which is the point you were making.

The finals also say that solar is expected to contribute up to 20% of energy used. meaning they have so far reduced energy consumption by up to 6% (probably a bit less), which will reduce the impact of any increase post 2024

FWIW
Stockopedia really likes it too - note the StockRank almost on maximum now - after the recent trade update their analyse, with some critical comments,
in their Small Capital Value Report, find that they have upped the BOWL rating to 96 out of 100
