21/4/2016 23:37 | Dominic WalshVerified account @walshdominic 6 hours ago (Business reporter The Times) Vague whispers of private equity interest in The Restaurant Group of late, though shares down today amid whiff of burnt fingers | philanderer | |
21/4/2016 23:28 | Thanks hjs , proactiveinvestors.c "Private equity firms are developing an appetite for troubled Frankie & Benny's owner Restaurant Group PLC, according to market rumours. The chatter in dealing rooms was that UK group Permira could bid for the company, which also owns the Chiquito and Coast to Coast chains among others. There was also vague talk that US private equity firms that already have restaurant interests were eyeing Restaurant Group (LON:RTN) to boost their portfolios. Restaurant Group shares have almost halved from about 723p in November last year as the company has faced tough trading. Last month, it said challenging markets at the end of last year had endured into early 2016 as consumer demand and confidence had softened. It said the tough conditions were likely to continue and it would be difficult to boost like-for-like sales consistently, although total sales would benefit from new openings. Shares in the group edged up 0.74p to 375.34p, having reached 379.2p at one point. Spokesmen for Restaurant Group and Permira declined to comment. | philanderer | |
21/4/2016 22:54 | There is gossip that Permira the private equity owner may be keen to buy RTN (in today's evening standard) Some of the parts is worth a lot more than where it is today so it is possible someone is looking to buy..... | hjs | |

15/4/2016 13:04 | It will be interesting to see if the rise is off the back of this being very oversold, or whether the start of a bounce. Personally, I think the upcoming TU I believe at their AGM will be critical, to see if the decline in LFL's have got worse, stabilised or started to improve slightly. Just look at PLND where LFL's have deteriorated - a different business I know, but the market is harshly treating drops in LFL's or slower growth. | imranawan | |
15/4/2016 12:56 | Up on top volume ... 2.5 million traded so far today | philanderer | |
15/4/2016 12:16 | ft Alphaville this morning... Restaurant Group PLC (RTN:LSE): Last: 371.00, up 9.7 (+2.68%), High: 373.00, Low: 357.40, Volume: 2.08m BE Um, no. Nothing specific anyway. PM hmm PM Was just told to keep an eye, but there’s nothing specific PM Let’s move to fallers BE Hang on, since you mention it ….. BE There was some talk around Restaurant Group being a PE target post the last profit warning but it was all very vague stuff. PM Well, seems the rumour has got a retread BE Stifel makes the valuation argument today. BE Recent trading: Like-for-like sales were 1.5% ahead in 2015, but there was a 1% decline in the last seven weeks of the year. This weaker trend continued into 2016 and LFLS were down 1.5% in the first 10 weeks, although the opening weeks of the year were stronger. Accordingly the underlying recent trend is perhaps -2%, at best. This is attributed to weaker economic conditions and increased competition in the sector. The business has a high level of operational gearing and we estimate each 1% change in sales equates to £3-4m of profit. Against this we consider there are opportunities to reduce central costs and note that above unit overheads were £38.0m in 2015, up £3.6m on the previous year. New openings: We expect some modest scaling back of the new opening programme for 2016. While the group continues to achieve high returns on capital from its expansion programme, with payback periods of under three years, in the light of the trading background it is natural to take a slightly more prudent attitude. Accordingly there could be around 38 new openings this year, compared to 44 in 2015. As with any multi-site operator, the group has some underperforming units but there are only a handful of loss-making sites, as evidenced by the modest onerous lease provision of £3.7m. These sites mainly relate to historical leases signed in the 1990s by previous management, and some legacy sites that have been sub-let. Finance: The group is in a healthy financial position, with net debt of £28.4m at December 2015, compared to the group’s £140m bank facility. The financial position remains very healthy, in our view, with net debt/EBITDA of 0.2x, although there are significant leasehold rental payments of £74m per annum. Our forecasts indicate an underlying free cash flow of £85m, before spending on new units, and accordingly the free cash flow yield is a highly attractive 11.6%. Forecasts: We revise our like-for-like sales assumption from flat to -1% for 2016 and downgrade our pre-tax profit forecast by £5m to £85m, which assumes a 100 basis point reduction in operating margins to 12.0%. Valuation: On our revised forecasts the rating of the shares looks low at under 11x earnings and around 6x EBITDA. There is a dividend yield of 4.8% and the underlying free cash flow yield is over 11%. Certainly private equity companies have paid much higher multiples in recent times. In addition to its main leisure restaurant brands we note that the group owns a successful concessions business, an attractive pub restaurant chain of 54 units, and material freehold property assets. On page 4 we arrive at a sum-of-the-parts valuation of 492p per share. We consider the shares look undervalued on a number of criteria, although cautious investors may wish to see evidence that downgrades to earnings estimates have stabilised. BE PE already owns a lot of this sector, of course. PM 492p sum of the parts? | philanderer | |
