RS Group fundamentals are ‘sound’, says Liberum


Investors may need to be patient with RS Group (RS1), formerly Electrocomponents, but ‘sound fundamentals’ mean a rerating is in reach, says Liberum.

Analyst Sanjay Vidyarthi retained his ‘buy’ recommendation but reduced the target price from £14.60 to 890p on the Citywire Elite Companies + rated electronic component distributor, which was trading at 687p on Wednesday.

The group had a ‘difficultR17; first half, with profits down 25%, which was ‘broadly as expected’, and Vidyarthi said the ‘exit rate coming out of the second quarter has not improved’.

‘The new management team has not seen a need for wholesale change to the strategy and reiterated its view on the consolidation and margin opportunity,’ he said.

‘Initiatives are under way to improve operational focus and efficiency, with benefits starting to come through in full-year 2024.’

Vidyarthi cut his 2024 profit-before-tax forecast by 23% to ‘reflect tougher market conditions, restructuring costs and higher interest’.

‘Patience may be required for a rerating but the fundamentals are sound,’ he said.

FTSE 100 Stock Loses, Then Regains £600 Million on Wild Day


(Bloomberg) -- By any standards, it’s been a choppy earnings day for electronic-components maker RS Group Plc.

The FTSE 100 member lost, and then regained, more than £600 million ($737 million) of market value in Tuesday trading, as initial dismay over its results was replaced by optimism over cost savings.

RS Group Shares Recoup Plunge on Wild Earnings Day: Street Wrap

According to Morgan Stanley analyst Annelies Vermeulen, the cost program was one area of focus on the post-results conference call. With much of the savings coming from permanent reduction in headcount “there is opportunity for more accelerated margin improvement when growth returns to the business,” Vermeulen wrote in a note.

Bloomberg has reached out to RS Group for comment on the share price movement, which saw the stock fall as much as 19% at the open before closing 2% higher.

Tuesday’s wild swings are in keeping with what’s been a rollercoaster year for the company formerly known as Electrocomponents. In August, RS narrowly avoided relegation from the blue-chip FTSE 100 index, although it has declined since. Even after Tuesday’s rally, it’s still down 22% year-to-date, reducing the firm’s market capitalization to about £3.3 billion.

“Management has done a good job on gross margins and variable costs and with the new cost savings plan, it is doing the right things,” RBC Capital Markets analyst Andy Brooke wrote in a note.

RS rattled by UBS downgrade, bigger profit 'unwind' forecast


RS Group PLC (LSE:RS1) shares fell sharply on Friday after investment bank UBS slashed forecasts, cuts its price target and downgraded the stock to 'neutral' from 'buy'.

“With recent data suggesting weakening markets and reversing share gains, we now expect a bigger profit 'unwind' for RS Group,” the Swiss bank said.

The broker foresees a period of sustained negative organic growth and margin pressure ahead and has cut estimates “significantly”, placing it around 14-19% below consensus.

While much of the risk is now reflected in the share price, which is 35% lower than mid-2022 highs, UBS sees limited re-rating potential for now given the negative earnings outlook.

The bank set a new price target of 800p, down from 1,250p, still well above the current share price, which fell 3.8% to 694.60p in London on Friday.

Earnings per share forecasts have been slashed by 13-22% for the next three financial years, driven by lowered organic growth and gross margin forecasts.

Peel Hunt: RS Group is ‘interesting’ despite headwinds


Electronics supplier RS Group (RS1) is facing gathering headwinds, but Peel Hunt says the shares still ‘look interesting’.

Analyst Henry Carver retained his ‘buy’ recommendation but reduced the target price from £11 to £10 on the Citywire Elite Companies plus-rated group, formerly known as Electrocomponents. The shares fell 0.6%, or 4.6p, to 755.8p on Wednesday.

Full-year results were in line, with revenues up 17% and profit up 25%, but Carver said ‘some trading headwinds gathered strength during the second half, and they look likely to persist into full-year 2024 against tough comps.’

‘We are downgrading our forecasts to reflect slower trading, fewer trading days, and a forex headwind, plus higher interest and tax charges,’ he said.

‘While the downgrade is fairly material – 8% to full-year 2024 earnings per share – the fundamental remain unchanged, in our view, with market share gains ongoing.’

The shares trade on a price-to-earnings of less than 13 times and Carver said ‘we believe the shares look very interesting’.
