Pavey Ark, with the dividend and share price appreciation over the last five years you have made a very good return.

I am hoping they can do similar over the next five years.

NChanning, my sentiments entirely, however I think when/if the Crypto fund gets off the ground, you might see a pop in the share price.

I hate Crypto, however it's not what you or I like, it is what the average idiot likes.

Ok ish results, raised dividend is good.
The FY-24 interim ordinary dividend of 2.15 pence per share (FY-23: 2.05 pence) was paid to shareholders on 22 December 2023, equivalent to £4.1 million.



The decision to impair previously capitalised development expenditure and to incur a one-off cost of £1.9 million has inevitably depleted the level of earnings by approximately 0.76 pence per share for the year. Notwithstanding this impact, the underlying performance of the business has been strong in FY-24 with a 32% underlying profit margin, high performance fees and the launch of new funds in the year, with further launches anticipated for the current financial year.



With this in mind, the Board remains confident in the future trajectory of the Group and consequently comfortable with the current dividend policy. As disclosed in the Chairman's statement, the Board is recommending a final ordinary dividend of 2.45 pence per share, equivalent to approximately £4.7 million, taking the overall ordinary dividend for the financial year to 4.60 pence per share.



Simultaneously, the Board is also paying a special dividend of 0.6 pence equivalent to approximately £1.1 million, making the total dividend in respect of the year ended 31 March 2024 of £9.9 million, equivalent to 93% of total underlying earnings.



The total ordinary and special dividends paid per share in respect of the prior year ended 31 March 2023 were 4.50 pence and 0.68 pence respectively, equivalent to total dividends of £9.9 million and representing 87% of total earnings per share of 5.95 pence.

Reading between the lines Leslie's growth and tech initiatives have been a damp squib , but the core business is performing well . CTO share sale not concerning as she had probably just been fired ...

Most of the important metrics have roughly doubled over the last five years. With the new management and some big shareholders who have retired, I doubt we will get to see if the company can do this again over the next five years in the public arena.

I think Lord Lee is right about the importance of dividends. The share price can go down however the market cannot take away paid past dividends.

Results tomorrow.

These goals were always incredibly ambitious , if Record were to hit in them in say 3 years time , the share price would easily triple . Would be happy just growing EPS at 10-15 % annually from here

Edison's most recent note from July forecasts FY24 performance fees of £1.5m (whilst noting that their forecast is below an annualisation of the £0.5m earned in Q1). With today's £1.0m from Q2, REC has reached the FY24 forecast already.

It is just another 90 odd day period in the life of REC, but the results look ok to me.Resilient-ish though performance fees are down this year on last - so far anyway. 1.5m v 2.8m at this stage last year , FY23 5.8m , so they are an important part of the picture .
Lesley notes a slight slowdown in progress on new initiatives.
The expected yield now is 7.7% for the year ending 31.03.24.
I have done well trading REC over the years .I say trading, but what I mean is I always hold some REC, for the divis as much as anything else, but have noted how the share price can overreact to the regular quarterly updates.
If reaction is negative then I will probably buy more if we go sub 70p.

Schroders slimming by 1.5pc explains recent share price weakness.
This is only the second change of shareholding RNS since the end of last August which shows the stability of the shareholder base-the other was when Neil Record sold abit in March.

@adamB1978. About employee share ownership. It's a bit lower than 3-5 years ago.

Personally, I wouldn't put too much weight on this aspect - apart from senior staff where it's meant to lock them in for reason of succession planning. When the only office was in Windsor, employees might have been reluctant to commute to London. But now REC has opened a London office (good!) - this will widen the talent pool available but turnover may also be higher.

Enjoying one's job, being paid well for it and not have to suffer from sociopathic line managers make for happy employees. Staff leave because of unpleasant managers, as much as anything. A growing company company will be telling its staff that there will be opportunities for advancement.

There is a bog standard (govt subsidised) Share Incentive Plan which probably accounts for the majority of that 63%. At Record, staff have to buy 2 shares to be given 1 free. These SIPs have a 5 year lock up if one wants to avoid clawbacks on NICs and Income Tax. Maximum subscription is £3,600 per year. In many financial companies, those in the know, consider SIPs to be a form of redundancy insurance. If one is made redundant and classified as a 'good leaver' then a company might potentially hand over the entire SIP contents tax free.

"The Group operates the Record plc Share Incentive Plan ("SIP"), to encourage more widespread ownership of Record plc shares by employees. The SIP is a tax‑approved scheme offering attractive tax savings for employees retaining their shares in the scheme over the medium to long term."

So how much do employees contribute annually to their Record SIP? Well, not that much (so far) as the latest AR tells us:

"As an incentive to employees, the Group matches every two shares bought by employees with a free matching share. During the year, the Group awarded 31,039 matching shares (2022: 23,309 matching shares) to employees. The expense charged in respect of the SIP was £24,950 in the year ended 31 March 2023 (2022: £18,310."

The max that a staff member could buy in their SIP is £3600x 0.66 = £2376 per year.

The AR tells us that staff(63% of 88 = 55 staff) bought 62,078 shares in the SIP or approx 1128 shares costing say 1128 x 85p or around £1000pa out of a maximum of £2376pa. That difference tells you that most employees are simply saving a regular monthly amount, rather than the max possible. That's why I say I wouldn't put too much weight on the rank and file share ownership.

Set against these purchases, Neil Record (70) has said that while he intends to be a significant shareholder for many years to come, he will also be periodically selling traches to fund scholarships (well done that man!)

Mr Record has built up a great little niche business and I'm happy to hold and see how the growth strategy pans out over the next 2-3years.
