Posted at 18/6/2023 21:50 by wad collector I see that we have been written to by Michael Govebut I seem to have missed his cheerful card , perhaps it went in the bin. IC are running an article on the issue this week and pointing out it is suppressing the housebuilder share prices but should be affecting KGP too. But if KGP were unaware of the misuse of its product , it is a pretty shallow moral arguement. |

Posted at 13/2/2013 14:10 by ukinvestor220 Cheers WexCompany: Kingspan Group Prior Post: Here (valuation, no commentary) Ticker: KSP:ID Price: EUR 8.698 Kingspan's insulation & related businesses are in a marvelous niche, attracting both green customers & green investors. However, there's no escape from the economic & construction cycle while it continues to increase revenues, based on acquisitions & market share wins, operating profit margins remain under pressure. I tagged Kingspan as marginally over-valued last year. Fortunately, its balance sheet remains in good shape, so the share price has responded pretty positively to two new acquisitions. The purchase of ThyssenKrupp's insulated panel business, with EUR 315 mio in Mainland Europe sales, and Rigidal, another panels & roofing business operating in the Gulf region (with $39 mio in sales), adds significantly to future sales. However, the price rally may be based more on hope at this point, rather than any immediate earnings enhancement as ThyssenKrupp currently operates at a loss, which likely matches/exceeds Rigidal's current profit. But we can expect to see extensive restructuring here, and I'm confident margins will eventually converge to group levels. Meanwhile, the operating profit margin is likely to fall from 6.6% to 5.4%, albeit on higher revenues. However, Kingspan's long-term growth story remains intact. With a rather absurd EUR 141 mio of cash on hand (vs. EUR 338 mio of debt), the total acquisition consideration presents no financial drag. The company may even have some scope for further acquisitions. With a genuine improvement in the economy, and/or the bombed-out construction sector (who knows when?!), it's obvious Kingspan's margins could rocket higher. Meanwhile, it's reasonable to price KSP somewhere between its prospective 5.4% & its historic 13.3% peak operating margin, which would equate to something like a 0.75 Price/Sales ratio. This confirms the company is fairly priced. Price Target: EUR 8.51 Upside: (2)% |
Posted at 14/4/2010 20:03 by lbo A bid by insolvent well-known businessman Brendan Murtagh to retain shares and a pension fund valued at up to 1.2m towards 'living expenses' was rejected by a High Court judge today in proceedings where investors are pursuing Mr Murtagh for 28m. |
Posted at 21/3/2010 22:16 by lbo Murtagh, McCaughey backed 370m Goldman Sachs dealIT was the deal that announced that the Irish had arrived. Nearly 10 years ago, a consortium led by Kevin Warren and Green Property spent almost 370m to buy the landmark Goldman Sachs HQ on London's Fleet Street. Market sources have indicated that bidders may now be circling the building with some investors keen to sell out |
Posted at 20/2/2010 14:22 by lbo WELL-known businessman Brendan Murtagh is insolvent, the Commercial Court heard yesterday. |
Posted at 28/1/2010 19:27 by lbo A GROUP OF private investors have claimed that businessman Brendan Murtagh and two others engaged in a "ruthless exploitation" of court procedures with the result of delaying to yesterday the securing of 28.1 million judgment orders against the three over failure to honour agreements related to Polish property investments.Mr Justice Peter Kelly said the significance of the delay was the Educational Building Society got in first as it obtained judgment for 33 million last Monday against Mr Murtagh, Kingscourt, Co Cavan, Greg Coughlan, Ardbrack, Kinsale, Co Cork, and Brian Madden, Well Road, Douglas, Cork. The three now have judgments of more than 61 million against them. |
Posted at 12/12/2009 13:53 by lbo In a report out yesterday, Standard Bank said that Ireland -- along with Greece -- was among several countries in an "intolerable" economic situation that might lead to bailouts or even an exit from the euro area by the end of next year."Countries like Ireland and Greece may not be able to grow out of the current crisis," said Steve Barrow, head of Group of 10 foreign-exchange strategy at the bank in London. "With interest-rate cuts, exchange-rate depreciation and significant fiscal support all off-limits for these countries, bailouts or even pullouts from EMU may happen next year." In his report, Mr Barrow had said the absence of a mechanism to permit so-called fiscal transfers within the 16-nation eurozone might undermine the exchange-rate system. Concern some nations will need to be rescued may drive the premium investors demand to hold 10-year Greek debt instead of benchmark German bunds to 400 basis points next year, from 214 basis points today, and the Irish premium may also jump, he said. "The widening difference in yield, or spread, between Greek and Irish bonds and German securities may accelerate, increasing the debt burden for these countries," Mr Barrow wrote in the report. The Irish-German 10-year spread may rise to 300 basis points next year, from about 170 basis points, he said. The spread averaged about 43 basis points in the past five years, with the Greek-German average at 67 basis points in the period. "It can, in many ways, be a more destructive line of attack for the market than currency pressure," Mr Barrow wrote |
Posted at 14/11/2009 14:32 by lbo STATE-OWNED ANGLO Irish Bank has restructured securities it holds over the assets of developer Howard Holdings assets in a move understood to be in preparation for moving its loans to Nama.Howard was one of the most active property players in the boom at one stage it had assets of 4 billion under development. It is the main private investor behind the proposed 1 billion Atlantic Quarter in Cork's docklands. It was also developing a conference and event centre there in partnership with the local authority. Howard Holdings plc in Britain was wound up earlier this year. The company was a shareholder in Howard Property Ireland, along with Brendan Murtagh, Lee Madden and Greg Coughlan. |
Posted at 07/9/2009 18:22 by lbo Howard Holdings in talks with backers over future structure Howard Holdings, the Cork property firm, is in talks with its backers over the future structure of its business. The company, which is backed by Kingspan co-founder Brendan Murtagh, is working on a major restructuring which will involve establishing a new holding company to manage its portfolio of investments and development projects. The overhaul of the firm's corporate structure comes after one of its British companies, Howard Holdings Plc, was wound up by the High Court in Britain for non-repayment of debts totalling £1.2 million (1.37 million). Last year, the High Court heard that Murtagh, a non-executive director of the business, along with managing director Greg Coughlan and finance director Brian Madden, had agreed to pay investors 3.5 million arising out of guaranteeing a share sale and purchase agreement for a company, Mulbawn Holdings. In June, businesswoman Eileen Monahan, of the Jurys Doyle family, initiated a lawsuit against the three directors over the development of a 200 million Polish property scheme. |
