Frasers Group holding has crept up, now 20.35%.

Just looking in. What's the investment case here? It seems to have a market cap of £90m but high debt and small profits, with no particular moat. Ashley has built up a big stake, is it basically a punt on a buyout, and if so, what is the target price? Something above the Alliances last buying price of 35p? Remember that big investors and business owners can get it wrong too... If the takeover doesn't materialise or is rebuffed, what's the fallback scenario? Trade its way back to profitability, and hope that the debt reduction is steadily reflected in the market cap?

"but not Alliance & Co. (<4% in last 12 months)."

hxxps://www.nbrown.co.uk/investors/aim-rule-26

states that the Alliances listed own 56%, at the date of that info

so, your text saying '<4% held by Alliance & co.'

is perhaps wrong....except if you are talking about the % of the co. bt within the last 12 months.

-----

while I would agree that the text of the rule is not 100% clear perhaps.

I had thought that any buying of shares by a holder of >10% in a 12 month period would set the minimum price they had to pay if they submitted a takeover offer
but phps the rule only applies if they buy >10.00% during a 12 month period

hmmm

I'm not an expert on takeover rules.

Schroeders are selling so they don't lose all their money!!
When a company delists, investors still own their shares. However, they'll no longer be able to sell them on the exchange. Instead, they'll have to do so over the ounter (OTC)

Why N Brown is a small-cap stock for contrarian value hunters
Ben Hobson
Tue, 31 May 2022, 8:49 am·2-min read

Contrarian value investors are always on the look-out for shares that the market has overlooked. In times of economic uncertainty - when stock prices become erratic - good quality stocks can become cheaper. The question is whether N Brown (LON:BWNG) is currently one of them.

Buying good quality stocks at cheap prices is a popular stock market strategy - but it isn't always easy to tell the difference between a genuine bargain and a value trap. Often, it's the quality of the stock that makes all the difference.

The N Brown share price is currently trading at 32.0p. And the promising news is that it has some of the traits that are often associated with two influential drivers of investment returns: high quality and a relatively cheap valuation.

To understand where they show up, here's a closer look:

Buying quality at a fair price
Good quality stocks are loved by the market because they're more likely to be solid, dependable businesses. Profitability is important, but so is the firm's financial strength. A track record of improving finances is essential.

One of the quality metrics for N Brown is that it passes 9 of the 9 financial tests in the Piotroski F-Score. The F-Score is a world-class accounting-based checklist for finding stocks with an improving financial health trend. A good F-Score suggests that the company has strong signs of quality.

While quality is important, no-one wants to overpay for a stock, so an appealing valuation is vital too. With a weaker economy, earnings forecasts are unclear right across the market. But there are some valuation measures that can help, and one of them is the Earnings Yield.

Earnings Yield compares a company's profit with its market valuation (worked out by dividing its operating profit by its enterprise value). It gives you a total value of the stock (including its cash and debt), which makes it easier to compare different stocks. As a percentage, the higher the Earnings Yield, the better value the share.

A rule of thumb for a reasonable Earnings Yield might be 5%, and the Earnings Yield for N Brown is currently 6.92%.

In summary, good quality and relatively cheap valuations are pointers to those stocks that are some of the most appealing to contrarian value investors. It's among these shares that genuine mis-pricing can be found. Once the market recognises that these quality firms are on sale, those prices often rebound.

What does this mean for potential investors?
Finding good quality stocks at cheap prices is a strategy used by some of the world's most successful investors. But be warned: these factors don't guarantee future returns and we've identified some areas of concern with N Brown that you can find out about here.

This sector though there's a lot of investors staying away even though these are seriously cheap. The concerns are around the debacle around STU where PIs got shafted, the company has a large single shareholder with a majority stake, in STU case they took it private after auditors discovered some accounting cover up. Investors are suspicious of this business model after what happened there

I've bought a few.
Its 97% of a netnet stock . This means if you deduct the current assets from total liabilities the remaining asset value is greater than the company's market cap.
Eg if the company goes bust you make a profit as an investor.
In our case we're 97% a netnet - this is the cheapest, bar none, retailer in the UK to buy.

It is interesting to look at the peer group for SHOE according to Zeus Capital. The one that stands out is BWNG with a FY 1, 2 and 3 PER of 6.5, 5.2 and 4.5 compared with the peer group averages of 17.6, 15.6 and 11.6. Of course removing BWNG from the peer group would increase the average. This looks to me to be a double over the next two to three years if the insurance claim is settled even adversely. I think that it is the uncertainty that worries investors.
