Posted at 22/7/2024 13:08 by nhb001 Anyone know anything about Hound Partners who have recently gone short (1.19%) of RWS? Odd timing given the share price decline and KWS bid but it has made me more nervous of opening a position in RMS. |
Posted at 19/7/2024 07:14 by alotto Indie the markets will come off the boil of the AI, especially if the rates are cut. RWS has only seen a painful steady share price decline, the only way is upward, provided sales pick up momentum again |
Posted at 26/6/2024 10:55 by alotto Jeffian I am not advocating for directors to support the share price through share purchases. Directors should buy stocks for their personal financial benefit. If they see an opportunity to achieve significant capital appreciation by buying shares in a company they know well, they should take it.The purchase of £10,000 worth of shares won't significantly improve their financial situation. What is the point of buying such a small amount? It doesn't benefit them meaningfully. Therefore, I consider it nonsensical. If you have confidence that the company has bright prospects, buy and buy big; otherwise, don't take a punt—just trade other shares that you don't have to disclose if you are speculating in the stock market. If a director thinks that buying shares sends a signal to individual or institutional investors, they are mistaken. Buying large amounts of shares to support the share price as an act of desperation is also nonsensical. That will not save the share price in the long run (and often not even in the short term) and may lead to financial self-harm. However, some directors and CEOs often do this |
Posted at 25/6/2024 23:02 by jeffian There's a misunderstanding among small PI's about Directors' share purchases. The executive Directors are there to run the company, and they get paid for it, sometimes with share awards as a bonus. Non-execs may buy shares if they like what they see when they get on board. Either way, it is not their job to try to support the share price, though plenty seem willing to try to send a 'signal' by buying a nominal amount. I would have said that this is just such a case. I tend to take no notice of Directors' share purchases at all; it's either an act of desperation or a half-hearted attempt to show they have 'skin in the game'. |
Posted at 13/6/2024 15:35 by microscope I suppose that if the business buy back shares and the price still drops you feel like you're losing out, though that's usually a short term view, and can correct itself with subsequent share price rise, particularly if nav is higher than the price the company was buying at.BDEV and VTU would be examples of companies who have a history of very successful buybacks, particularly the latter. (Incidentally fwiw I still think this is a very well run company, the shareprice has more been concerned about inevitably increased competition from AI etc, than about management imho. Could do a lot worse than having current management on your side.) |
Posted at 13/6/2024 11:35 by alotto For the cash to go to those who sell, the share price has to rise. Those who sold didn't sell at a higher price thanks to the buyback, actually the share price plummeted. The dividend increase perhaps is due to the very fact that shares were repurchased. |
Posted at 13/6/2024 10:26 by jeffian When a company decides it has 'surplus' cash to distribute to shareholders it can either pay a special dividend or make a return of capital, either of which put the money equally into the hands of all shareholders. The current fashion of "returning money to shareholders" is to repurchase shares in the market, which gives all the available cash to those who sell and none to those who continue to hold. The argument is that with less shares in issue, the remaining shareholders benefit from increased Earnings Per Share and Net Asset Value which, theoretically, should result in an increased share price. Except it often doesn't. (In)famously, when Whitbread sold Costa Coffee it "returned" £2bn to shareholders - equivalent to around £12.50/share from memory - which could have been paid out via div/cap payment to all but only went to those who sold. The share price then was over £50; the share price today is around £30 (having been much lower). So how have those shareholders who didn't sell have "cash returned to them". They haven't. |
Posted at 13/12/2023 07:42 by redartbmud Berenberg: RWS can regrow after ‘challenging year’RWS (RWS) has encountered cyclical pressures, but the translation services provider can recover its growth trajectory, says Berenberg. Analyst Calum Battersby retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of 380p on the stock, which slid over 8%, or 20p, to 227p after annual results on Tuesday. The full-year figures were in line with downgraded guidance RWS gave in October, reflecting a ‘challenging year for the company, with a 2% revenue decline and a 12% decline in adjusted earnings per share’. Battersby said the company had been hit by a ‘range of macroeconomic and market-specific headwinds faced over the last year’. ‘While the outlook does not promise an immediate market recovery, we continue to see reasons to be positive about RWS’s longer-term outlook,’ he said. ‘Shares now trade on 10 times price/earnings with a 5% dividend yield for a business that remains in a net cash position, and is currently undergoing a £50m buyback, with a previously excellent track record of compounding earnings growth.’ While there is a lack of visibility on a 2024 recovery, Battersby said RWS’s current issues are ‘cyclical and one-off pressures rather than structural ones’ and remains ‘confident that the company will recover to its prior growth trajectory in time’. The shares have fallen 41% this year. red |
Posted at 20/5/2023 09:09 by casterd I assume that the RWS share price has plummeted as a result of worries that AI may render their product redundant. Even though it can be thought of as a hurdle for the translation industry, automation is the foundation of RWS's approach. The group's unique machine-learning technology is used by the company's large translator pool to do machine translation post-editing (MTPE). MTPE helps RWS boost profitability and take market share by enhancing translation production and efficiency.Instead of endangering RWS, automation is promoting its long-term growth and resiliency. Thanks to its solid balance sheet, well-covered dividend, and potential for future margin growth, RWS is a dependable income opportunity. |
Posted at 23/3/2022 11:07 by jeffian Well I've just re-read the statement and I'm not sure it says "organic growth has stalled and (y)our business model to grow further is based upon acquisition alone". In fact, organic growth is mentioned quite a lot.One thing that may have spooked the market is the reference to the unified European Patent which in the past has had a big influence on the RWS share price. Obviously, the need to translate all patents into every EU language has been a big element of RWS business and they have been working hard to decrease their reliance on it by globalising. |
