This story was made public weeks/months ago, nothing new. The way you have written is that the firms involved are getting 200m each, it is a share of that figure, and works have to be tendered by the 5 companies involved, the works will be given on a price and technical expertise basis, as with all big ticket frameworks, there is no guarantee of any work, just gets everyone excited, only to find that the firms involved, struggle to make any margins

Another big framework win for our favourite construction firm:



Kier, Eurovia and FM Conway have each bagged an estimated £200M of infrastructure work for Transport for London.

That`s a really interesting chart podgy..pull up the google one for 2 years or the lse one the share price is no where near 100 post april 2020. touched 89 for a moment.. Must have been a very brief spike intra day..
Any other fantasy trades? Novacyte @ 3p? Amazon @ $10?

What do you think Wally, I presume you think the market is deluded rather than yourself.
Maybe you could manage to extra "heartedly apologize" once the results are out and you're still proved wrong?

jeees death by a million words..It`s like being savaged by a dictionary.

Here`s a fact for you podgy.

Syme 0.23 FEW DAYS AGO. yesterday up 45% and touched 0.48. Like I said a great trading share.I doubt you will live long enough to see COST double.
You are all bluster and second hand research and no imagination.

blackrock closed its short down to zero. Blackrock is long kier at around 5%.

Surely institutional investors moving out of this share is a bad sign, would this be a lack of dividend, or that the share price is not expected to rise significantly??Also is Blackrock running a short over the 1%??, level

according to british bulls (a fave here) -

The bulls are in full control. The negative sentiment that led to the last bearish pattern has evaporated. Besides, the signal is suggesting to STAY LONG. It is best to follow the signal and continue to hold this security.

It’s all very simple.
Hence!
You are an idiot who came to the party at 50p telling investors to leave it alone.
You are an absolute plum. Why on earth what anybody take notice of the tripe you list in here?
130 trades.

Up 102% year to date.
Kier Living Sold.
Strong demand for extra shares.
Government commitment to record infrastructure spend
No institutional shorts

You know John, you could always try engaging in informed debate about facts, detail, nuance, complexity.

Just a wild thought.

Bore off boring.
Kie is 102% up YTD. Instead of boring us from 50p up with useless posts belittling Kier you should have pulled the trigger and +. Your boring portfolio would of got less boring. I still genuinely believe there is an opportunity to double your money at these levels too in the next 24 months - Kier could well be a takeover target. Anyone sensible enough to take up the up the extra shares are very well positioned now.

I don't disagree - there is more to it than just numbers. And COST management has been appalling. Most if it now gone, but I do think the current CEO is a lot less than impressive and is part of the old management failures - albeit a relatively junior part at the time.

It's just that a PE bidder would be looking at the price they would be paying for a cashflow stream - and would be very happy to get rid of the management if they wanted to.

To be honest, they're both cheap.

imastu pidgitaswell

Yes, but cheaper doesn't mean better. Costain is still operated by the management that got it into so much trouble recently, and it has an identity crisis and is trying to turn away from construction, plus it's not a market leader, whereas Kier is. Also you like it. 😊

I know a cheaper one...

Whatever the rights and wrongs of the share price, these are the facts. Similar PE ratios (although COST lower), very different Enterprise Value to Earnings per Share (or EBITDA if you prefer) ratios - which is what a PE bidder would be looking at:

................................KIE....................COST

Number of shares................446.....................275
Share price....................1.30...................0.611
Market Cap .....................579.....................168

Financial Debt at 31.12.20......436
Delayed Tax......................50
Trade Finance...................110
Cash raised....................(229)
KL sale....................... (100)

Net debt / (cash)...............267....................(113)

Enterprise Value................846......................55

Projecting forward earnings:

................................KIE....................COST

Turnover......................4,000...................1,200
Margin.........................3.0%....................3.5%
PBT.............................120......................42
Tax............................ (30)..... ..............(11)
PAT..............................90......................32
Number of shares................446.....................275
EPS(p).........................20.2p...................11.5p


PE ratio.......................6.44....................5.33
E/V : Profit ratio.............9.40....................1.75

Something's going on, right Pete? Someone stake-building? The ownership profile shown on the FT's page for Kier has changed significantly. Standard Life appear to have divested. If the chart is correct, institutional ownership is now less than half, when previously it had been almost three quarters.

UK companies are increasingly bid-targets for foreign money, especially firms plugged into govt money and infrastructure -- see rumours about SSE recently, and the buy-outs of defence firms. Of all the construction firms, Kier's low valuation and high market-share surely has to make it one of the best takeover-prospects.

Monthly construction output fell by 1.3% in June 2021, because of a decline in repair and maintenance (4.2%) offset by a small increase in new work (0.5%). Construction output in June 2021 was 0.3% (£39 million) below the February 2020 pre-coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic level; new work was 2.1% (£188 million) below this level, while repair and maintenance was 3.1% (£149 million) above. In contrast to the monthly fall, quarterly construction output grew by 3.3% in Quarter 2 (Apr to June) 2021 compared with Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2021; both new work (3.9%) and repair and maintenance (2.3%) saw increases.
