I think around £15.80, but just luck buying near an exact low.

They do have exposure to aerospace (not great) and the Boeing strike now looks protracted - SNR warning this week.

Alliance News

Smiths Group was the biggest casualty in the FTSE 100, down 5.2%, as results missed expectations.

In the financial year that ended July 31, the London-based engineering firm said pretax profit increased 3.3% to GBP372 million from GBP360 million the year before. Revenue rose 3.1% to GBP3.13 billion from GBP3.04 billion, slightly below the company-compiled consensus of GBP3.15 billion.

Operating profit rose 3.0% to GBP415 million from GBP403 million with the operating profit margin of 16.8%, improving from 16.5% a year ago but below the 17.0% analyst consensus.

Analysts at RBC Capital Markets pointed out headline operating profit - earnings before interest, tax and amortisation - of GBP526 million was below the GBP535 million consensus, although 5.0% ahead of GBP501 million the year prior.

"All of this looks solid if unspectacular, and sticking to the financial framework for financial 2025 is encouraging, given weaker outlooks for some other industrials recently," said analysts at Stifel.

Happens time and again on SMIN updates, as I've mentioned here previously.

Around £16.50 looks attractive fwiw.

Chance of hitting that 1600p today the way it’s going south

[action] 24/9/2024 09:28

1600p may be good entry point

[action] 24/9/2024 09:27

Low of year 1571. With divi say 1600p.

[philanderer] 24/9/2024 09:19

I really can’t see what warrants that market reaction.

[action] 24/9/2024 08:52

Divi increased. Any price target to enter?

[philanderer] 24/9/2024 08:38
