Renold Share Discussion Threads

Last year's results showed growth and growth has continued this year yet the P/E is still going to be around 5, if not lower, at current share prices.

Seriously undervalued.

Excellent!!!

[hardupfedup] 07/2/2023 11:23

pro --- exactly my feelings

This share is now massively undervalued. Nothing but good news coming from the company but the share price has been totally unable to make a sustained rise. It is worth more than double the current price and that would still leave it on a single digit PER. If you consider the progress in improving margins and cutting costs over the last 5 years . I don't think institutional investors have noticed. 2018 the company had revenues of £191 million and a loss of £2.2 million. 2022 similar revenue of 195 mil and net profit of £10.2 mil
The outlook should show growth in revenue and profit. Order book including the new contract should be up over 10% this year, so in spite of inflation this company is growing

Nice contract win announcement

They don't often RNS contract news, but in the last Interim report they did highlight the strong order book which was at record highs, will be interesting to see if this has progressed in the next update.

Latest CEO interview talking through the results for the six month period ended 30 September 2022 -

[kalai1] 16/11/2022 14:44

Renold Plc posted Interims for the HY period ended 30th September 2022 this morning. Revenue was up 22.0% to £116.3m driven by strong growth in the Chain segment. Adjusted operating profit was up 33.3% to £9.6m, return on sales increased by 80bps to 8.3% with price increases offsetting input cost and supply chain challenges. Adjusted EPS was up 42.1% to 2.7p. The balance sheet looks decent with net debt at £34.0m or 1.2x rolling 12-month EBITDA. The Group’s IAS 19 pension deficit was also reduced by 29.6% to £61.3m. The acquisition of Industrias YUK provides opportunities for synergies and further growth. Valuation also looks very attractive with forward PE ratio at 4.8x ranking RNO top out of 33 names in the Machinery, Equipment & Components sector. Share price is down about 1/3 over the past 12 months and lacks some positive momentum. Wider macro risks are an obvious potential cloud, but company specific factors suggest there is a lot to like. BUY....

Hard to disagree with you prokartace…..
Mr Market can be a very hard taskmaster but I think he has got it wrong here.
So a little more patience required

[prokartace] 16/11/2022 12:56

Sensationally cheap. Lets hope the aquisitions work well. If they do then debt will decine quickly. It is not unmanageable at 1.2x EBITDA. This should decline to below 1x EBITDA by the time of the annual results as EBITDA will increase and profit will increase allowing a reduction in debt of around £5m.
This share is seriously undervalued and is worth at least double the price it currently trades at. It is astonishing that with all the good figures and upgrades throughout the year that this share has fallen 25% in the last year!

Huge two way trade already today.

I have a small investment here, bought 6 months ago, still slightly underwater, which I may double.

[bubloo] 16/11/2022 09:31

trading at pe of less than 4.5 with possible dividend next year.second half seasonally better with inventories probably unwinding as logistics are getting better and Germany has managed its energy supplies well.
with high interest rates pension fund deficit will disappear very soon. I twas if I remember right close to 124 million about 1.5 years ago and now around 60 million

[jailbird] 16/11/2022 07:56

Yes increase in debt because of acquisition- not great Pension deficit down - good If acquisition is revenue /profit enhancing next year , then will pay for itself Neutral for me for now , but uplift in revenues next year

[jaf111] 16/11/2022 07:21

Looks more than satisfactory…..hopefully Mr Market agrees !!!

[this_is_me] 16/11/2022 07:19

" The strong trading momentum experienced in the second half of the last financial year has continued in the first half..."

"Order books as at 30 September 2022 of GBP99.0m again represent a record high for the Group, and are 37.3% higher than the prior year equivalent; 24.3% at constant exchange rates."

There was never going to be a dividend having spent EUR £20 million on the acquisition and still with a huge pension deficit albeit this having reduced by 30% in accounting terms.

Quite a bit of excitement before tomorrow!
