It’s a one off year. I’d love a steep drop down.

Management currently expects adjusted profit before tax for the year ending December 2020 to be between £11m and £13m, a whopping 66% decline on the prior year. According to Investor's Champion the emphasis on ‘adjusted̵7; suggests the reported number will be even worse.

Yesterdays 20% price increase was rather out of character too for a company which is usually very boring.

Well, I’ve been watching the trades over the last couple of months. Seems someone has been reducing, however last week more activity albeit with lots of small trades, which is unusual. Lots of “off book” trades also caught the eye. Maybe they will now build towards next trading statement, expected early January.

Given the situation, decent results. We should be able to recover back into the mid teens over the next couple of months. Plenty buying today so far.

Plus it gives immunity from all viruses......

AG Barr up 15% today. Hopefully Nichols can do the same. Nichols has a superior equity ratio, net cash and a lower P/E.

Winding up for a move?

[justiceforthemany] 14/1/2020 20:49

These types of shares with great balance sheets usually trade on 25-30x earnings. Saudi Arabia/UAE is a small fraction of their revenue. Nichols actually has a far better balance sheet than AG Barr.

[essentialinvestor] 14/1/2020 18:37

They had net cash last time I looked, circa £30 million?. You could make a case the shares are not particularly cheap, but in the context of current market valuations the rating looks reasonable to me. The share price is given to fat % moves in either direction. It's around a level NICL has bounced from previously.

[justiceforthemany] 14/1/2020 17:44

Very good equity ratio of 4 and low debt. Annual pre-tax profits of c.£31M wipe out total debt/liabilities of c.£29M. P/E ~ 20.

[essentialinvestor] 14/1/2020 13:55

Added another few.

[essentialinvestor] 10/1/2020 20:19

Yes, agree it's a good point. And congrats.

I'm with Saurish on this. Ramadan is a time when a few bob extra on your favourite drink is peanuts within the context of the whole celebration. Given 80% sales during this period I can't see it as having huge impact on overall sales. I've been long term holder of these since about £1.20 a share so they've paid for themselves in divi alone. BIG fan of Nichols. Keep the faith.
