Posted at 12/11/2024 08:14 by nchanning As regards NI and minimum wage impact here , this will be significant . However they are in exactly the same situation as the supermarkets - domestic business competing only against domestic businesses in exactly the same situation . You would expect price rises by all players to match increasing costs |
Posted at 19/10/2024 09:09 by nchanning Even something very conservative like :The company will only buy back shares when the Free cash flow yield is over 8 % and only up to 0.5 x debt to ebitda .Very little risk for such a stable predictable business to use the balance sheet to retire some shares at such a bargain price . Plenty of headroom to do acquisitions as they arise |
Posted at 23/8/2024 15:18 by masurenguy Been on my Watchlist for awhile. Nice and quiet thread but still watching and waiting.Mark Simpson takes a cautious, but broadly neutral view, of the interims. "Resilient performance in the period; trading broadly in line for the full year When a company begins their results with the dreaded R-word in the title, you know there is trouble to come. “Broadly&rdquo Revenue decreased by 8% (-11% organic, split equally volume and price with +3% from acquisitions It's a freely accessible note, but in principle, we don't like the idea that a company only communicates the key information that investors need to know to make an informed decision via the brokers. In light of the volume down by 5.5%, this is a pretty good margin performance, helped by higher-margin manufacturing, which is growing as a proportion of revenue. You have to wonder how long margins can hold up against volume declines, though. Shore are forecasting no real growth over the five-year period to 2026. This gives ammunition to both the bulls and the bears. The bears will point out that a P/E of 9.6 looks high for a company unable to generate any organic growth over the medium term, that has just warned on profits. Particularly in the current market where many companies that aren’t growing EPS rapidly or have warned look even cheaper. The bulls will point out the longer-term success story and say that these figures won’t include anything for acquisitions that could be funded from free cash flow. Perhaps the reality is somewhere in between and the market has priced this one about right for the moment. At least until there is a clearer picture of whether this warning is the start of a negative trend or if acquisitions will prove current forecasts too conservative." |

Posted at 13/3/2024 12:07 by nchanning It's really hard to lose making acquisitions at this price . Perhaps there are not enough left in the UK to use all of the cashflow, but Germany offers a new pipeline . After the economic brutality of the last couple of years perhaps there will be a few more vendors around in the UK anyway |
Posted at 19/10/2023 09:22 by nchanning I like the acquisition too , if Macfarlane was trading on 15 times earnings . MACF on about 5.5 x EV/EBITDA , so very comparable to the acquisition and a 300m revenue business with multiple revenue lines is considerably higher quality than a tiny 3m revenue packaging company and should command a much higher multiple . At the very least every textbook on capital allocation would tell you when your stock falls to incredibly cheap levels stop paying a dividend and start buying back stock . I genuinely think if the stock was half this level management would continue to say 'we know the dividend is important' and 'we have been successful with acquisitions in the past so we're going to do more. |
Posted at 30/8/2023 11:38 by nchanning Presentation yesterday reinforced my view that management are trustworthy and excellent operators . The only thing that disappointed was that they declined to show a totally rational attitude to capital allocation . They continually repeated that they wanted to grow the business by doing more acquisitions because they have done that successfully rather than do share buybacks . But at the same time they recognised that they are now , thanks to the lowly share price , buying companies on a similar rating to themselves . Yet Macfarlane is clearly a more valuable business than a regional distributor with its track record , extra scale and diversity of business lines . The best way to create value right now is to start buying back 10% of shares outstanding every year |
