Posted at 22/5/2025 07:09 by johnwise M&S hikes its dividend despite £300m cyber hit: Stuart Machin says crisis is just a 'bump in the road'Marks & Spencer raised its dividend as boss Stuart Machin insisted a devastating cyber hack was a ‘bump in the road’ in its transformation. Investors will be handed 3.6p a share for the 12 months to March 29 – a 20 per cent increase on the year before – after profits hit their highest level for a decade and a half. The dividend boost, which The Mail on Sunday revealed was in the offing last weekend, comes despite the cyber attack denting the company’s profits this year by £300million as online shopping remains suspended. Machin will stay on as chief executive to continue his turnaround of the retail giant even as he warned the disruption may last until July. Blaming ‘human error’ for the attack at Easter, he said: ‘We’re only four-and-a-half weeks in since. Sometimes to us, it feels like four-and-a-half months. ‘But if I’m honest, in our multi-year journey, four-and-a-half weeks is a short period of time. And now we’re getting back to business.’ |
Posted at 21/5/2025 16:45 by debsdowner EIMarks on track to make £1 billion before tax in full year 2026/7 That means the year after the next set of results. But for cyber attack I think MARKS would have been on track to make just short of £1 billion the next financial year and investors look forward that is why investors are ignoring hit in next results. The cyber attack is outside MARKS control and they are happening all over the place at the moment. |
Posted at 21/5/2025 14:38 by gerhart Thanks for the link Debs. Think longer term investors will be taking the positive view.The management could be engaged in "news management" giving the more negative possible picture for now.... Who knows maybe the Americanos will coming looking at some point to take out M+S...given future prospects. A lot of talk of London companies undervalued. Don't have any idea if that would include us, but thankfully the ship is in good shape. |

Posted at 21/5/2025 11:22 by debsdowner Up circa 5% from low point astute investors buying in on prospects and divi ! |
Posted at 21/5/2025 09:47 by debsdowner Blue SKY reached investors see MARKS as a buy and previous poster correct in saying other retailers yet to see hit from cyber crimes. |
Posted at 17/5/2025 09:59 by debsdowner Most long term investors like institutions will overlook the hit and astute investors will do the same.It's more important what is really happening with the company and it won't be long say a couple of years that MARKS hit a billion profits once more. |
Posted at 07/4/2025 18:04 by qantas (Sharecast News) - RBC Capital Markets has reiterated its 'outperform' rating for Marks & Spencer, saying the business was well positioned to defy sector concerns.As of Friday's close, M&S shares had fallen around 7% so far this year, with investors worried about more aggressive pricing tactics by Asda on M&S's food operations. However, RBC believes these concerns were "likely overdone", with M&S having the least customer overlap with Asda compared with the other major food retailers. The Canadian broker explained that Asda tends to cater for lower-income customers doing a weekly big shop, whereas M&S customers visit for convenience food, last-minute dinners and/or special occasions. It also noted that M&S's 50:50 Ocado Retail joint venture should provide more top-line growth, with nearly a third of Ocado Retail sales coming from M&S products. For the company's clothing and home divisions, RBC said M&S was "pushing on well in areas of existing strength", like knitwear, denim and lingerie, while an improved sourcing outlook should help support margins. "At 12x CY25 P/E we see potential for further upside as investors reappraise the durability of its growth and exposure to favourable trends, including a flight to quality in food and clothing," the broker said. So important to sit on hands. Mistake : Panicking and selling It’s completely normal to feel worried when your investments take a hit. But hitting the panic button and selling up in reaction to short-term dips is often a bad idea. Our brains are wired to chase gains and avoid losses. But if left unchecked, this often leads to poor investment decisions. For instance, selling out when markets are tough means missing out on any potential rebound , which can be even stronger than before. Sticking to your long-term plan is therefore key. A diversified portfolio can also help smooth out the bumps – and has been proven to help investors weather market storms. In simple terms, this means investing in a mix of shares and bonds, and/or investment funds from various industries and countries, to reduce your risk and capture market opportunities. Mistake : Don’t cash out too quickly Selling your investments when markets are down tends to lock in your losses. It also means missing out on any upswing. So, keep your eye on the bigger picture. Resist the urge to check your investments constantly – don’t get caught up in the daily fluctuations. And the longer you stay invested, the better your chances of seeing your money grow. Aim to hold on to your investments for at least five years, ideally longer. |
