Video: full year results presentation by CEO, Richard Whiting



Whiting updates on FY results, with PTP up 2.5% and EPS up 3%, all achieved with lower revenues, reflecting lower commodity costs, which doesn’t affect profits. The dividend is increased by 5%.

CAPEX investment and 3 acquisitions has cost £10m, although debt is still only 9.9m (less that 1xEBITDA), due to NWF’s strong cash generation.

Achievement across each division:

1. Feeds increased volumes and market share

2. Foods at capacity, added repacked work

3. Record fuel volumes

Market conditions have been difficult – dairy farmers have faced low milk prices; food distribution is competitive; the warm autumn and winter meant less demand for heating oil - however, in spite of this growth has been achieved.

Whiting runs through each division, outlining the challenges and opportunities; and where the acquisitions fit in.

Brexit: hasn’t had much impact to date; and NWF don’t anticipate any implications.

Ultimately, he says, NWF has strong management, who spot growth opportunities, with the asset backing to take advantage of them. Highly focussed on good cash generation and optimising share holder returns.

NWF are trading in line with expectations for the first two months of new financial year; and the increase in dividend highlights the confidence in the future for the group.

You probably bought at a good price today. Final Results were in early August, so may wait and watch for a while longer.

[9degrees] 05/5/2016 20:52

I have just bought back in as it must be somewhere near the bottom .it may go down more of course if markets fall but so will everything else

[gateside] 04/5/2016 23:10

Wonder if this has much further to fall?

[9degrees] 24/3/2016 14:49

[cwa1] 01/3/2016 11:32

Vague? Non-existent is the term I would have used!

[bruceylegs] 01/3/2016 11:20

Market giving today's acquisition of Jim Peet the thumbs up. Slightly surprised because the RNS is vague regarding the price paid or the expected impact on NWF's revenue/profit. Geographic fit looks good though.

Thanks for that, I've just booked my place at the ShareSoc Seminar - looks like a good selection of companies. Should be a good evening and great opportunity to ask Richard Whiting a few questions about NWF's recent half year results.

Not exciting in a big way but looks like excellent, solid, progress to me. Very happy with that.

[9degrees] 04/8/2015 07:36

Sound results showing good solid progress. a well managed business with good product and geographic spread and delivering decent returns . Should continue to reward shareholders and customers alike . Well done to them

Carrs mkt cap £154.78m
NWF mkt cap £74.98m

Carrs engineering business under pressure. this will take up a lot of management time and resource.
On that baisi my guess would be no. FWIW.
