23/6/2023 10:15 | Gearing is modest so not an issue unless their revenues falls off a cliff. | essentialinvestor | |
23/6/2023 10:09 | My view is that most short term prices move randomly and have no reason. But if you must seek one behind the large fall in SDMS since the results, it's prob the drop in sales volume coupled with the recession we may be facing, which if it happens could precipitate further volume falls. Although in the year to 30 April 23 they more than compensated for the volume fall by increasing prices - leading to an increase in sales value - in a recession falling demand will likely limit how much they can increase prices. So eps may well be hit if that happens and consequently the shares become less attractive, making sellers more prevalent than buyers at the moment. I don't think the debt increase has much to do with it because gearing remains fairly reasonable. I've held the share for some years in my income port but it's not one of my better performers. Divis have been cut in the past so they have form on not being amongst my most reliable payers, though the 18p for 23 is something of a record payout from memory. And it's showing quite a loss on capital, though I'm purely an income investor and ignore price flucs. | anhar | |
23/6/2023 09:36 | My target entry point is 250 if it get's there. | pinemartin9 | |
23/6/2023 09:08 | In tough times people tend to cut out big ticket items first like cars and holidays. I can't see the demand for packaging cardboard changing much. | rcturner2 | |
23/6/2023 08:54 | I can only see the market share for online shopping increasing, particularly so if money is tight, given that more often than not Amazon/eBay are the cheapest places to buy stuff. | spawny100 | |
23/6/2023 08:52 | With respect this may be an oversimplification. What the market may 'think' (at least for now) is there are downside risks to earnings over the next couple of years - does not mean this is definitely right, but weakening macro is weighing and packaging has heavy operational gearing - estimates can change very rapidly, in either direction. | essentialinvestor | |
23/6/2023 08:45 | It’s simple the market thinks that the earnings will be 30p this year trading on 9 times = 270p | sun1950 | |
23/6/2023 08:25 | I'm really not sure why this should be trading near 5 year lows, given yesterday's strong results. Seems more like an opportunity than a risk to me... | tigerbythetail | |
22/6/2023 17:46 | You do not need to argue with me. Price will tell you everything. Argue your point with it. | blueclyde | |
22/6/2023 17:25 | What about it! | dogwalker | |
22/6/2023 16:57 | Read the notes re dividend timing! | ianood | |
22/6/2023 16:54 | Problem is the debt. It is going up. | blueclyde | |
22/6/2023 14:14 | Been watching these hovering around £3 for ages waiting to buy a few. Today seems like too good an opportunity to waste so bought some. Market in despondent mood and this seems unfairly punished given the decent results. | spawny100 | |
22/6/2023 13:24 | Very puzzling price action today. Those are indeed good results. And debt is only 1.3x and coming down, so it's not ridiculously high. | tigerbythetail | |
22/6/2023 12:55 | Is it the debt that's dragging this down? Need to research but with BOE rates going up could that have a bearing? Very interested here at these prices. My gut feel is that it could drop further. I'm not in a rush as doesn't go ex-dividend for a while so will watch for a bit. That said, I'm sure those in at these prices will do well long term. | pinemartin9 | |
22/6/2023 10:00 | In the 1990'3 I built an entire portfolio based largely on Low PER/High Yield shares and it did me very nicely in the post-dotcom era. On a PER of around 8 and a near 6% yield, this one absolutely fits the bill. Happy to hold. | jeffian | |
22/6/2023 09:42 | Yesterday's drop was down to a report from FedEx stating their sales are down. Hence, all packaging companies shares dropped by about 5-6% Naturally, FedEx deliver ALL the internet ordered parcels so this must be a disaster. Try telling my daughter and wife to stop buying on the internet - it you're brave :-) | mcunliffe1 | |
22/6/2023 08:52 | Patience always required when investing. Trust your judgement. These are good results. Dividends good and increasing. Good businesses will do well just have to navigate life like the rest of us. | nicyts2 | |
22/6/2023 08:46 | Good results and yet no recovery from yesterdays debacle in the SP, i am perplexed, wish someone could explain and yes whilst debt could do with coming down these are a good set of results | nonwoke | |
22/6/2023 08:23 | Well, having jumped out too early last time, I have bought back in again today (probably too early again). Eerily similar price to my initial buy, which was followed by an average down circa 254p, if memory serves me correct. Will do the same if the pattern repeats. I thought the update was very good. Even allowing for all the macro stuff, IMO 320p should be a very conservative TP. I hope so anyway, but can tuck these away if needs be. GLA. | lovewinshatelosses | |
22/6/2023 08:09 | Good results could do with the debt coming down though | tnt99 | |
22/6/2023 07:59 | why the drop yesterday? anticipating bad news but news quite good a PE of 8 not to be sneezed at but EPS at 35 less than 43 forecast so may be share price would have been weaker hence fall yesterday on leaked news. I think results are ok and I'm happy if PE is only down to 8 not 6.8 as f'cast. | slogsweep | |
22/6/2023 07:12 | So, despite the doom and gloom and the share price movement yesterday, excellent results out today. | rcturner2 | |
21/6/2023 16:20 | Thanks chaps. | dondee |
