Liontrust a ‘coiled spring’, says Buffettology

Liontrust Asset Management (LIO) is a ‘coiled spring’ that could do very well if sentiment towards the UK improves, says Sanford DeLand manager Keith Ashworth-Lord. He holds the asset manager in his £406m CFP SDL UK Buffettology fund, where it was the biggest faller in October, with the shares dropping 14.5%. The investment group continues to experience net outflows, which Ashworth-Lord said was "symptomatic of the current sentiment towards UK equities and the quality growth investment style in particular. We know this cannot continue indefinitely and await further details of the Mansion House proposals which should encourage – either by carrot or stick – greater investment into UK assets by pension funds. As we witnessed during the first half of 2024, Liontrust is a high beta stock and is one of many coiled springs in the fund that will be very sensitive to any improvement in sentiment towards the UK." The shares fell 2.7% to 418p on Tuesday, extending losses to 31% in 2024 to date.

ABDN is up based on its US stock portfolios, I guess. LIO has US funds but is looked upon more as a UK player. Interest rate cut tomorrow will help. Also, Mansion House reforms on investment in AIM , reduction in outflow due to clarity on pension will all help the share price

I know , I was referring to their investments through the Economic Advantage Funds which are focused on AIM listed companies. If you noticed, AIM was up on Oct 31, budget day and so was LIO significantly. So it looks like the market puses share price up when AIM is up.

wow, talk about head in sand

In 12 months they went from £50m operating profit to zero (in fact they made a loss). Since then their performance has got worse, their numbers are going the wrong way. They are relying on accounting manipulation to show "adjusted profit".

RCTurner2 - 09 Sep 2024 - 07:30:32 - 905 of 1022 Liontrust with Charts & News - LIO
The problem with LIO is the poor performance last year.

For the financial year ending in 2023 they made £50m operating profit and applied £36m of positive adjustments to claim an adjusted profit of £86m.

For the financial year ending in 2024 they made zero operating profit and applied £66m of positive adjustments to claim an adjusted profit of £66m.

To me this stinks of financial manipulation and I don't trust the adjusted numbers.

Liontrust fears ‘misplaced’

Liontrust (LIO) has suffered from the ‘general malaise’ seen by the asset management industry but dividend concerns are ‘misplaced’, says Panmure Liberum. Analyst Rae Maile retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of £10.50 on the investment manager, which tumbled 7.2% to 490p yesterday and has slipped 19% year to date.

"We anticipated that the industry had a lacklustre quarter for flows and Liontrust has not escaped the general malaise, with September having proven particularly difficult it appears. Retail outflows of £900m were ‘in line with our estimate’ but institutional outflows were ‘slightly worse than we had hoped, although stronger performance was an important mitigant. The wait for a turn in flows – for the industry as well as for Liontrust – continues. Hopefully, the Budget will offer some relief. In the meantime, we believe that fears with respect to Liontrust’s dividend are misplaced, with an estimated 13.6% yield on offer helping to soothe the continued wait." said Maile

Deutsche: Liontrust shares reflect fund outflows

Liontrust Asset Management (LIO) continues to face challenges from fund outflows and the valuation ‘fairly’ reflects the problem backdrop, says Deutsche Bank. Analyst David McCann retained his ‘hold’ recommendation and target price of 600p on the investment group, which softened 1.1% to 619p on Tuesday. ‘We estimate Liontrust to have delivered £0.2bn net outflows in August and assets under management to be -1% versus the last reported figure in June,’ he said.

He said the group faces myriad challenges from ongoing outflows, ‘the low industry growth outlook, the group’s strategy that we are not convinced will result in returning the group to net inflows in the short term, and a risk to management guidance of being able to maintain a mid-30% operating margin’. McCann also said there is ‘an increasing risk to the dividend’, which he expects to be uncovered in 2025, 2026, and 2027, and will require ‘support from the surplus capital and performance fees’. ‘However, we think the valuation broadly fairly reflects this challenging position and outlook,’ he said.

Liontrust says things will only get better for fund groups under Labour
Liontrust boss John Ions is hopeful of growth under Labour as a trading statement shows outflows slowing to £900m in the latest quarter.

Liontrust (LIO) chief executive John Ions has put his faith in the new Labour government to improve the outlook for the UK’s fund managers. A trading update covering the three months to 30 June, the first quarter of Liontrust’s financial year, showed net outflows hit £900m over the period, down from £1.6bn in the same quarter last year. In a statement accompanying the update, Ions said that last week’s election result offered hope of stability. ‘Labour’s large majority in last week’s general election should herald a period of stability that will be positive for financial markets,’ he said. ‘It is encouraging that the new government has a pro-growth agenda and is committed to the simplification of pensions.’

Like many asset managers, Liontrust has faced challenges in recent years as high interest rates and inflation have roiled stock markets and hit demand for actively managed funds. A specialism in UK equities (a sector that has seen significant outflows) has also hurt Liontrust, manager of Edinburgh (EDIN) investment trust, while a failed bid for GAM hurt full-year profits in the most recent financial results. According to Morningstar data, Liontrust shares have lost investors more than 55% over the past three years to the end of June.

However, Ions said Labour’s push for stability and growth under chancellor Rachel Reeves, as well as a need to encourage investors to save more in their pensions, would help the asset manager going forward. ‘Along with falling inflation and the expectation of a reduction in interest rates, this should encourage international investors to return to the UK and boost capital flows to the stock market,’ Ions said. ‘Given the ever-increasing need for individuals to save more for their retirement as well, this will significantly improve the outlook for asset managers.’

yes, I have some shares.

(imo recent news on takeovers is benificial for LIO fund performance, which might help attract new/more FUM inflow; & the takeover offer for competitor HL surely also makes LIO more valuable.
Although the speed & on-going power of the % rise at LIO surprises me.

recent takeover offers at higher prices at companies where LIO holds a notable investment include :- John Wood grp plc, Keywords Studios, any more ??
& I think LIO owns a chunk of shares at ACSO which is up 50% in the last 6-9 months.

--------

charting
....many shares fall 20-50% when they announce unpopular news .....and the chart signals do not forewarn that, so, for me, chart signals are no g'tee of the future share price direction, of course.

I have a similar yield overall ~ 7.5%. Was getting up to 9.5% before DEC trashed its dividend.
Anyway, hopefully as LIO share price continues to bounce back and AUM starts to grow they can maintain their divi and longer term start to grow it again.

Not sure that's fair. If sentiment towards a sector and therefore LIO share price haď not tanked, may well have gone through.
