Well said Florence. I fully agree. My view is that this is the last moment to buy <£1. I think the pre 2021 price is from a different market and strategy… but that is 4x where we are. Getting to 2x is not only achievable, but entirely obvious on current conditions.

Do you think we could get back to pre 2021 share price levels or have I missed a huge dilution somewhere?

The only logical reason I can find to explain the selling is that we have quite a few funds with ownership just below 3%.

They have faced a lot of redemptions in the last couple of years and may well be forced sellers at any price taking advantage of the liquidity on days like today. But we won’t know for sure as they have no obligation to declare their sales.

I’ve tried all ends up to find something in the numbers that makes the company’s adjusted PBT figures look farcical to explain the absurdly cheap valuation.

But I just can’t find anything. Share based payments are not unreasonably dilutive, deferred consideration for acquisitions is fine as they seem to acquire well enough, amortisation of acquired intangibles is a legit deduction, increased interest costs (not that they are adjusted out anyway) are more or less offset by interest earned on client funds…

Whatever way I slice it I come to the conclusion that if they stopped acquiring tomorrow, and had no significant downturn in trading from current operations, they would make 15-20m of genuine cash flows in the 12 months thereafter.

Indeed, I expect a run towards 150p.

At the AGM they said “The Board is pleased to report that the momentum that was starting to build at the end of FY23 has continued into the new financial year, as the Group continues to successfully execute its growth strategy”

That said, share price performance here has been disappointing. Very low PE, nice divi. Is it just a case of large sellers still at play? Or am I missing something?

A lot of small cap funds will be having big redemptions and be forced sellers - when there is no one wanting to buy the share price will fall, sometimes quite sharply. Looks like Octopus and Wasatch have been selling fairly recently and sure there are others.

been doing some further digging around and there is defo a disconnect between the fundamentals and the share price.
Posted at 10/7/2023 08:41 by craftyspeculator
market cap £56m plus £29m net debt for an enterprise value of £85m, versus net cash generated from operations of £20m = on a 4x multiple. Way too cheap. If they stopped doing acquisitions they would become a cash cow on a ridiculously low multiple. Net debt / underlying EBITDA is also under 1.0x so no concern there.

UK peers like Keystone, Gateley and DWF are rated at a multiple of this. Something has to give. Either the share price goes up, or David Beech buys it back. He sold 20% of his shares for £61m in 2021 and still owns 20%, so he could buy out the shares he doesn't own for less than the price he got for 20%. Genuinely think this is a possibility as 2023 progresses and the interest yield curve starts to flatten.
