Posted at 19/1/2024 16:11 by stdyeddy It looks as though the market here is pausing for breath. Galliford and Costain have both posted similarly positive updates recently while retailers are all struggling. I suspect (and hope) that the market will begin to re-evaluate construction -- the facts here will ultimately overcome scepticism. Kier is generating a lot of cash and pretty soon it's going to present undeniably great value.In the last rights issue prospectus, Davies promised investors that Kier would pay out one third of profits as dividends (or was it 30%?). The business seems to be reliably producing a 3.5% margin or better (judging by the cash generation -- the numbers in March will hopefully confirm) and turnover looks like it will be around £4bn or better. Conversion to cash is expected to be 90% now that 'adjustments' for 'restructuring' are allegedly over, so my back-of-a-fag-packet calculation is that profits could be around £125m and cash at £110m. If -- and I think this is a moderate-sized 'if' -- but if Davies and Kesterton leap straight into this pay-out program with the half-year divi at say one third of the total, the March announcement could offer £12m for the first half (2.6p?) and maybe £24m for the full-year, making £36m in total. That would be a 6.5% return on today's shareprice. That is significantly better than current interest rates for money in the bank and the share is in a well-established uptrend -- hence my expectation that the share price is going to go a lot higher from here. |

Posted at 20/11/2023 18:07 by itisonlymoney there was another troll on here who did the same kind of dishonest posting. always telling ppl to look it up. always lying. what is with trolls and social media? you were posting here every day for weeks and everyone was just ignoring you. its your posts that show you up. seriously. most investors know what an RCF is. |
Posted at 17/11/2023 01:33 by itisonlymoney here are my questions that you seem incapable of answering.address these points. 1. youve been posting disparaging remarks about kier since the shares crashed four years ago but the company has recovered. you said it wouldn't. Admit that you're wrong. 2. you don't do actual "research" despite your claims. have you read kiers accounts, read an investor presentation or listened to an investor briefing from kier management? judging from the complete absence of intelligent or relevant comment, it looks to me that the answer is no. admit that you know nothing about kier the company. 3. this site is for investors. obviously you are not a kier investor. if you are short you are losing a ton of money because the shares have more than doubled over the last year. what are you doing here? since you appear to be neither long or short, you are evidently just pontificating here everyday because you are a lonely attention seeker. stop waffling. admit you're a doom-mongering prat. |

Posted at 19/9/2023 18:58 by itisonlymoney stutes, desperate trolling. pathetic. you shld just admit that youve been wrong about kier. work dried up during the pandemic. lots of projects paused and deferred. same now with inflation. but kier survived it cos theyd already spent money making the bsuiness lean. now kier is picking up work where other firms are failing, like buckingham and there will be more.why do you think henryboot is worried about not having work while kier has a £10bn order book with 85% of it already started? kier has won places on all the big frameworks, more than other businesses, thats why. for 4 years youve been saying the sh1t will hit the fan and other stupid cliches. don't you feel a bit ashamed that youve been trying to mislead people for so long? its obvious now that youre a troll when people look back at the messages from actual investors on this board countering your bs. what are you even doing here if youre not invested and youre always wrong? its you who hasnt been able to see the big picture. a picture four years long. |
Posted at 19/9/2023 13:29 by stdyeddy It's great to see the complete vindication of the Kier bulls here. The lies and rubbish spouted by the trolls (we still have one left) about this company over the last year or three, continue to be a vivid comment on the deceit and corruption commonplace on social media of all sorts. Faced with the facts in black and white of a rebuilt and repaired company it seems they have run out of lies and are doubtless spreading misinformation elsewhere on advfn.Congratulations to small investors who were able to see past this. Kier seems to be on a steady upward trajectory now and will ultimately rejoin the FTSE250, perhaps within the year, adding even more momentum to the share price recovery. While other contractors struggle, Kier's dominance on framework contracts which produce a steady pipeline of work is underpinning the business's strong progress. I think it's worth keeping in mind that Kier's fall back in 2019 occurred after having its finances hollowed out by the previous management to an unsustainable point through the relentless extraction of cash dividends, and a string of expensive business mergers/takeovers. The fact that Kier has achieved recovery AND repaired the business in the face of a global pandemic, a major European war, and a massive spike in inflation, shows the fundamental strength of the business and a change in the competitive environment -- with Carillion and Interserve both failing (Tilbury Douglas is a shadow of the old Interserve business), major competitors gave up market share to Kier and gave a wake-up call to industry and customers which is enabling sustainable margins. Long may it continue. |
Posted at 18/9/2023 13:22 by stdyeddy Another big day for Kier trades as the market continues to re-rate our favourite construction firm; two million shares half-way through the day and about 4% up again.Kier are finally putting a little more effort into investor relations -- Andrew Davies, Chief Executive Officer and Simon Kesterton, Chief Financial Officer will be hosting a live online retail investor presentation at 10:30am on Thursday 28 September 2023 (joining details are in the trading update RNS last week). Also, three board directors bought shares with their own cash last week. I have a feeling we could get to 130p within a month or two. GLA. |
Posted at 15/9/2023 14:00 by dogwithabone It's hard to ignore these results from Kier yesterday. The two day rise seems to be a slow burn as the market gets reacquainted with Kier Group after several years of the business being on thin ice. I've followed the group's story for a while and I am in as a new investor.For those of you who watched the investor presentation yesterday, the management presented a compelling story of a completed turnaround and strong forward earnings. I see the share price continuing to rise to the broker targets and beyond. A p/e of 10 seems very reasonable for Kier as one of the leading UK constructors and one of the biggest. |
