This share just keeps giving.. I had a target which was surpassed. Thought I.had missed the recent high only to be presented with it again. I top sliced but still hold a decent wedge. Any thoughts on where this may go to?

You’re quoting a trailing P/E of 16.6x based on Birkett Long’s old £1m PBT, which ignores Knights’ own guidance that margins will rise to “low double digits” post-integration — implying £1.5–£1.76m PBT on existing revenue. That brings the forward P/E down to around 9–11x, not 16.6.

Compare that with Knights’ own shares trading at a forward P/E of ~6.3x (23.7p EPS, 150p share price), and yes, a buyback would have been very EPS-accretive. But EPS isn’t the only lens — this acquisition also adds strategic expansion in the South East and a long-desired wealth advisory arm.

We ran the numbers: the acquisition would add 1.2p–1.4p EPS, whereas a buyback of £16.6m at 150p would only add ~0.24p EPS. So ironically, the acquisition is more accretive, even before growth.

The PBT (from the RNS) is £1M (not £1.5) so PE paid for the acquisition is 16.6.
KGH website gives 2025 EPS forecast as 23.7p, so £1.50 Share Price divided by 23.7p = PE 6.3.
Surely a KGH share buy back at PE 6.3 would have been a better and safer investment than an acquisition at PE 16.6?

All these quoted law firms seem to be run for the lawyers, not the share-holders.

Acquisition of Birkett Long LLP and Birkett Long IFA LLP



Paid ~11x current PBT (£16.6m / £1.5m) – not cheap on current earnings

Yes another share affected by the current malaise. Very cheap on fundamentals and prospects
Posted at 20/3/2024 22:37 by pandaball
I agree with the recent posters. I’ve also built a relatively overweight position on the basis of my view of Knights fundamentals and strategy/management. But the perceived challenge I can imagine for short termers in this stock, and equally the exciting opportunity right now as I see it, is in the technicals. The pricing has been testing territory that is uncharted since the price drop in 2022 - which is naturally causing some hesitation, despite the undervalued fundamentals.
A rerating is required and in my view inevitable. Hence I’m happy to have built and now wait for the muscle to move in.

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