Very poor sales of the new mug

While a recent poll by the National Centre for Social Research (NatCen) showed public support for the monarchy has fallen to a historic low, the booming sales of coronation merch perhaps begs to differ....

A spokesperson for Emma Bridgewater says coronation sales have been more than double those for the Queen’s platinum jubilee last year and much bigger than sales for William and Kate’s wedding....

They'll be fully stocked again just in time for his abdication on grounds of diminished responsibility...

On the PMP direct retail website they are starting to sell out of the Charles III
memorabilia crockery, they do give pretty swift 'back in stock' dates so i am assuming this is good news not poor forecasting of sales .

Portmeirion (PMP) Stock Analysis - May-2023

Comparator company Churchill China tipped by Money Week:

Renewed optimism that a global recession can be avoided is especially palpable in small caps such as this £144m ceramics firm, which produces plates, mugs and cookware for the hospitality and retail sectors. About 40% of group sales come from the UK, with the second-largest market in continental Europe.

XD tomorrow might create a dip after the strong recent run. Will be interesting to see if the dip gets bought?

very good point, thanks for highlighting.

Nice results over at CHH today so a positive read across on the sector.

Just comparing the raw numbers, PMP is so much cheaper than CHH with a rolling 1 year PE of 8.4 compared with 16.7 and higher divi.according to Stocko

Paul (with others) provides a brilliant service reviewing updates from small caps every morning on stockopedia, which itself is a a share screening website providing a very clear stock report. It can provide some great pointers and there is a knowledgeable community, worth considering if your portfolio value is not insignificant or you want some new ideas. I was sceptical but will keep the subscription going after nearly 25 years of DIY. But remember to do your own research.

Didn't know that was his real name; though I see he started this BB.

Added some more, have to add credit to Paul Scott for highlighting a few weeks back, his one concern was the inventory needs to unwind, small punt in the scheme of things.

[wad collector] 12/4/2023 12:27

That is an impressive burst today, now a ten month high. Shame I paid £6....

[melody9999] 12/4/2023 09:03

Doubled up today. PMP is cheap and has little resistance chartwise up to 600p – which is my target and also broker Singer target. Energy hedge until Q1 2024 but with prices reducing this should give them time to negotiate a reasonable deal.

Also final divi ex 20/4 for 12p.

[my retirement fund] 07/4/2023 18:48

Probably time to sell then!

[zho] 05/4/2023 09:45

That's funny - I C&Ped the address but somehow the 'a' in 'small' got lost.

I've corrected it now.

Posibly just me but that link isn't working

Paul Scott interviewed CEO Mike Raybould last week. PMP move around 600 containers a year and MR says that rates have dropped from a peak of around $20,000 to pre-pandemic levels of around $3,500, which Paul says should generate annual savings in the high digit millions, comparable to 2022 pre-tax profits.

There is a lag of about 6 months on these savings because PMP turn over stock twice a year, and it's worth noting that shipping rates peaked towards the end of 2021 and fell uniformly throughout 2022.
