I see that Ruffer have increased their shareholding from 17 to 18 percent.

Good news coming on top of the company’s relentless and ongoing share buy back programme over recent months

I can only reiterate what I said some weeks ago and since then we have had more share buybacks and now the Chairman buying shares.

All seems very positive and the share price does not seem to reflect the underlying value. Remains a long term hold for me.

But DYOR

A week ago, the company announced it was allocating £5 million for share buybacks.
One week later it has already purchased shares worth roughly 20% of that figure at prices up to 435p/share.

Difficult not to see that as a positive sign which suggests that the current share price levels are very attractive and probably don't reflect the real underlying value.

But all IMHO and DYOR

Pretty solid results all round.

A promising outlook for the full year, an approx. 60% increase in the net cash position and a substantially increased £5 million allocated for further share buybacks.

Seems the company remains below the radar on many fronts but happy to remain a long term holder.

All IMHO and DYOR

The guy won't even talk to his house broker to update forecasts :) . Quite handy that he's a bully though when we're engineering cut price takeovers of struggling companies

The share buybacks last year shows long term confidence by the management. Their strong cash position leaves them well placed to make further acquisitions, which has worked well with TPG and Frontier.

If the stock market underperforms this year because of geopolitical tensions, then there may be other tempting targets, with good businesses seeing their share price drop solely down to market conditions, or a good company being let down by poor management, or a combination of both. SAG have proven they have a good nose for companies with untapped potential and their model of buying large stakes at distressed prices, before an eventual buyout, has proven very successful with TPG and Frontier.

Their main strength is the management. They know how to turnaround businesses and add value. Warren Buffett always says the first thing he looks at when making a purchase is the management. I have learned the hard way that you can have an excellent business but if you have a lot of clueless clowns in charge, it will still be driven into the ground (i.e. Frontier}. That is when well run firms like SAG step in.

This is still a long-term hold for me and I believe at some point a bigger player will see the strengths of this firm, and they will be a takeover target themselves (and at a hefty premium to today's price, IMHO).

PS. Happy Brexit Day!

Between 12th September and to-day the company has repurchased about 260,000 shares in a price range of 400/410 pence at a cost of just over £1 million which is pretty encouraging.

All IMHO and DYOR

The acquisition of TPG seems to be proving a success but a clearer picture should emerge with the accounts for full year.
On the other hand Frontier Smart Tech is having a more difficult year.
I hope that SAG allows more time to digest TPG before making another acquisition but there must be many quoted companies whose share price Mr. Radcliffe now finds attractive.

Science Group plc issued an encouraging AGM trading statement this morning. In the first months of 2023 the Group has traded in line with the Board's expectations, with the services divisions reporting growth, while Frontier continues to experience the impact on the consumer electronics industry from the economic slow-down since mid-2022. Current consensus has FY23 revenues up over 50% to £132m with net profit up over 35% to £14.5m. So a year of robust top and bottom line growth is in store. The integration of TP Group is proceeding satisfactorily, the Group's balance sheet remains healthy with net cash at £19.6m. Valuation is decent if not outright cheap with forward PE ratio at 12.7x, but the share price lacks momentum and has been drifting sideways for nearly 2 years. SAG is certainly a share worth monitoring for the time being, although the share price may need a catalyst to start moving higher...

The mkt doesn’t think it will succeed by the looks of it. If they fail to get hold of TPG it would affect Sag share price. Better for them to offer a realistic price now than to mess about?
