Posted at 19/5/2022 08:23 by topvest It won't complete until Q4, so its not going to get to £12 until we get closer to that date (and a competing bid is highly unlikely). I will probably just wait until Q4 on this one as I don't currently need the cash. Not worth losing c50p. It's a bit disappointing that there is no final dividend. That's my only disappointment on the deal. You would have thought that they could have negotiated a dividend whilst we wait, particularly given inflation for 6m eating away at the £12! Mustn't grumble though - its a good overall result.See Harpin and his wife collect c£0.5bn before tax - not a bad life's work and he keeps his job and no doubt will be incentivised again. Well done to him! |
Posted at 17/5/2022 14:47 by alotto I wouldn't say so. I think the long term price target (5 years) for HSV is about £15. and turning down an offer can result in a immediate share price climb (When I Unilever turned down the Heinz Kraft offer the shares went up 10%, and that's on a company with a 100B market cap, which pleased me quite a bit) |
Posted at 22/4/2022 11:18 by horndean eagle I doubt that happens. Competition authorities would be all over it. Here are some of Davy's thoughts on HSVDavy speculated the conditions "may well revolve around the requirements to retain management", or whether the private equity firm wishes to retain the whole group. Davy asked if Homeserve's Home Experts business could be demerged, or does Brookfield want all the pieces of the core. At the beginning of April, Homeserve said its Home Experts division was profitable for the first time on a full year basis, and was predominantly thanks to progress at Checkatrade. The company expects Checkatrade's average revenue per trade to exceed a target of GBP1,200, up from GBP939 in in the financial year ended March 31, 2022. Brookfield now has until May 19 to make a firm offer, which was extended from Thursday as the pair now enter discussions. "Our core valuation on a sum of the parts basis is GBP11 - although this is conservative as it attributes no valuation to Japan and puts Checkatrade and Habitissimo in at cost," Davy said. "On the same basis, we can get to a take-out valuation for the North American operations alone at around GBP7. Our discounted cash flow gives much higher long-term value at over GBP15 รข€“ growth paring back to 3% terminal, operating margin rising to 21% but fading back to 19%" |
Posted at 22/4/2022 10:50 by aeu97137 I think it would be a great opportunity for CVC to acquire HSV and combine it with Domestic and General. |
Posted at 21/4/2022 18:34 by value viper The fact that HSV is engaging with Brookfield for starters and there has been an extension - multiple possible deal options it seems Brookfield has been running through Some on here said nothing would come of this situation - that may well still be the case of course .....If Brookfield has seemingly serious intentions - it raises the possibility of others possibly entering the fray |
Posted at 28/2/2022 09:10 by alotto I don't think we will ditch gas heating any time soon. We may move to a mix 25% Hydrogen, although the feasibility of that is questionable, due to the technical problems associated to it. HSV is already moving towards alternative heating systems, my guess is that they will go through more acquisitions and upskilling of their technicians to adapt to new technologies. The opportunity would be huge if there will be installation of alternative heating systems on large scale. |
Posted at 25/2/2022 11:22 by alotto Hi Disco, are you trying to discredit me? :DI am not invested in VIC as I am not a big fan of companies of recent listing. I don't feel there are enough elements to determine a fair price for VIC as yet but it is on my watchlist. Results from latest announcements are not massively encouraging. If you want to connect to share ideas and opinions on a number of stocks I am all for it. I seem to understand you do your research when picking stocks. Or you wouldn't be here! Rudder, my opinion on HSV and debt. I am not a fan of companies with Zero debt. A certain level of debt and equity keeps new ventures away from taking on market share. A business that can be start on a small initial investment will likely face competition from new ventures approaching the market. I think HSV has a manageable debt and sufficient liquidity (cash). Quick ratio and dividend cover is good too. Interest rates won't rise to a significant level in the medium term. Inflationary pressure will be a reality for the coming 2-3 years Macroeconomics are very difficult if not impossible to predict. The best investors in history didn't pay much attention to macroeconomics. I would focus on healthy attractive businesses at an attractive price. |
Posted at 26/1/2022 14:48 by alotto The last set of results were quite encouraging. The dividend pay-out was increased by 10%. dividends have been increasing steadily over a large number of years. A purchase by the directors won't change the fundamentals. Sometimes stocks go cheap. The markets are here to serve us not to inform us on underlying performance, (quoting warren buffet |
Posted at 26/1/2022 10:38 by alotto Yes, he got in at a very good price and the dividend yield for him is about 3% which is not bad considering the impressive and constant dividend growth over a number of years |
Posted at 26/1/2022 08:09 by alotto I think this stock is fairly priced for moderate growth on the basis of dividend yield. with a rate of growth of 10% per year we will be in the region of £12 in about 5 years. But I doubt it will be £12. I expect the growth in the US to be on a much larger basis compared to the UK and also there is potential growth from other streams, such as Checktrade. In my view we could see the share price well above £15 in the next 5 years or earlier |
