This is from Bearbull in the IC last week. He holds Just in his income portfolio:

The one bright spot for the UK portion of the portfolio has been this year’s one home-grown addition – life insurer Just Group (JUST) – which is up 32 per cent since we bought it in early April.

To recap: Just was (and still is) benefiting from favourable actuarial shifts, rising in-force profits and strong (if capital-intensive) business growth. Demand from both pension trustees and individual savers for guaranteed retirement incomes is booming. And with each passing year since changing regulatory treatment of lifetime mortgages spooked markets, hitting Just’s shares and capital, investor confidence continues to grow.

This confidence might be of the ‘believe it when I see it’ variety. But Just isn’t short of operational momentum. Capital ratios and net asset values continue to build, while the drag from new business is moderate, or being managed with reinsurance. A freshly inked £1.8bn transaction to secure all benefits of G4S’s pension scheme – a record for Just – was both an example of the latter, and suggested the insurer has the balance sheet and commercial relationships to land big deals.

In April, I described the shares as a free hit on UK value, and so far the idea is working.

However, even though new business is boosting profits, the staggered release of capital, competing demands on cash and a low starting point for distributions mean it will take a few years before Just starts to deliver as an income stream. Although consensus dividend estimates look cautious against fast-rising profits, I’m not expecting much more than a 3 per cent yield against our purchase price in 2025.

It looks to me that Just Group have over the last 12 months accumulated a lot of new business, and they have definitely turned the corner, and that the future is much brighter than it was 18 months ago - thus the rise in share price, together with new hope that the share price may well keep rising given time.

Just Group plc posted a bumper set of Interims for the HY ended 30 June 2024 this morning. Retirement income sales were up 30% to £2.5b, underlying operating profit surged 44% to £249m and adjusted PBT was up to 8.5% to £267m. The outlook provided was also positive, momentum remains strong entering the second half of 2024, management forecast second half new business volumes to be similar to the excellent performance in the first half, albeit with slightly lower margins due to business mix. The balance sheet is strong, valuation is very attractive with forward PE at 3.4x and the share price is extending its solid uptrend. Ticks all the right boxes. BUY...

Hopefully in January Just share price may firm up, if the first half profits continue through to the second half. Lets wait and see. Although the current dividend is far short of Aviva's and Just Group may only raise it marginally, the prospective profit and pe ration could look encouraging to re-rate the share price. So here is hoping.

The Just share price has nothing to do with fundamentals (I hope) it is relatively illiquid and at the first sign of panic gets sold off along with the banks and all the other insurers

Would have thought JUST share price would have held up better - 14% drop now.
What fundamentals have changed since the share price of 90p to now 77p ?
I'm still holding in here - at least for now.

Could be news on interims results around 9th August 2023- 7 weeks away. .

Just share price appears to be unstable of late.
Would have thought it would be going above 90p or £1,
and that is just for starters.

IMF on teletext believes that when inflation is under control that interest rates could fall back to pre covid interest rates. Looking quite optimistic.
Inflation currently I believe is at 10.4%, with food inflation at 17.5%.
Stockmarket today was quite firm.
I believe that JUST share price has further to go, Could we see £1.00 ?

The yield of Just - 2% now ? could catch up with others in the same section - of around 6% ? - if the results do hit target for a pe of 3.5. On the basis of dividend only the share price should be 30p, but then the prospective pe ratio would be a real bargain and quite silly.

If others in the same section are on a pe of 6, then that makes Just share price 154,
so the fact that the dividend in only a third of others may be irrelevant at this stage.

My previous target was 128p. Just share price is lower that others mainly because of past record has been dodgy looking at the 5 year record. So IF Just does prove itself then the share price should come somewhere closer to targets.

That's my view - rightly or wrongly - time will time.

Not expected that Just share price is coming off the boil after its good run,
could have further to go in the long run though.
