Underlying picture suggests the shares trade on a PER of 7 & offer a 5.5% div yield 👇🏻 Hoping for considerable share price appreciation in the next few years alongside a decent income stream." hTTps://twitter.com/Glasshalfull1/status/1171383859549757441 Read Full Thread Follow Reply
04/4/2019 09:07	smithie6: "after 5 more years of EPS of >= 6p (& track record says that it will increase) shareholders will have 5× 6p =30p more of nett assets per share (some paid as divi, some retained by the co.) which at the current share price of 52p leaves 22p of nett share cost (52p-30p= 22p) 22p to get >=6p/share eps 27% ! just too cheap while admittedly its NOT a loss making jam tomorrow stock producing lots of rubbery RNSs promising that things are about to get much better...paying no divi..which many punters seem to prefer !!...like 7DIG, AO. & many more STM is a jam today stock !! 6p EPS, now ! & 4-4.5% divi !

30/11/2018 14:36	camerongd53: cannot comprehend why the share price is so weak - it has dropped from 70p ish to just over 50p The latest interim results were good and there has been no recent real bad news - even today's update was not hat pessimistic to justify such a large drop - it mentions underlying growth as well as increased costs. If it prevents governance banana skins it is money well spent. The share price performance is probably reflecting general market sentiment etc rather than underlying business performance. IMO this share is possibly absurdly cheap!! Read Full Thread Follow Reply
13/9/2018 17:48	camerongd53: I have been a shareholder in this company for a couple of years and am sitting on a nice70% gain. STM has had a couple of major issues e.g. UK QROps legislation - hopefully the lost ptofit will be replaced by the sipps. The other issue was the governance issue in GIb was actually more concerning for me as it could be indicative of poor management. It appears that this has now been addressed and resolved. The recent half yearly report was satisfactory. - it shows STM profitable and stable on a continuing basis. The share price has been relatively static in the range 50p to 70p for the last 6 months. I see no reason for this to change unless there is the much hinted QROP cadmin Consolidation or corporate activity I estimate NAV Of 53 p per share so share buybacks may be on the agenda. On the other hand the boardmay want to keep the cash for Qrop consolidation. If the share price firms I may take some profits but will probably hold the remainder for the long term as there is still a good chance of a higher share price in the medium/long term.

27/3/2018 18:07	teela brown: Today's results strike me as being really good. £18.4 m cash and 59.4m shares gives 31p cash per share. A share price of 55p and basic EPS of 6.69p gives a PE ratio of 8.2. Adjusting the share price to remove cash leaves 24p (55-31) and a cash adjusted PE of 3.6 (24 ÷ 6.69). Simon Thompson in Investors Chronicle currently has a target price of 70p. I think he'll probably be adjusting that up. Applying a PE ratio of 10 (because it's a nice round number) to the underlying earnings of 6.69p then adding back the cash would give a target of 90p (66.9+24). Are my sums right?

12/1/2017 08:23	rivaldo: I bought a very small holding here recently and then grabbed a further 20k at 40p this morning. I had hoped to get more at that price, but can't complain! Good update this morning. Forecasts for this year after the recent acquisition are now for 5.9p EPS, with a 2p dividend. On that basis I can see a share price of at least 60p-65p if all goes well.

15/4/2016 16:42	smithie6: I know the Vislink saga fairly well....and Im critical of their MD and his greed.... ...I dont think the mkt will see the STM scheme as negative, we'll see Alan Kentish was the develop. dir.....and Mr Porter is serving out his notice... so many shareholders will be keen to be sure that Mr Kentish stays at the comp. Personally I like the idea of the STM ex develop. dir. being the boss since he will know the co. and the products and mkts like the back of his hand. And big holders perhaps happy to give him some % of the co. to help ensure he stays. (working out 12 month notice seems very unusual to me.....general feeling I have is that director behaviour seems OK....although the dept of reality inside related party transactions we cant see, but they have produced a big jump in PAT, so fair enough I guess) ---- (bit confused about some parts of incentives....20% EPS increase and link with just the share price.....not clearly written imo....but Im not that fussed... only starts above 60p, which is 20% share price rise from current sp) Read Full Thread Follow Reply
09/7/2015 14:47	philw2009: Exploiting a valuation anomaly H&T was not the only share on my active buy list that has benefited from a target price upgrade. So too has STM (STM: 47p), the Aim-traded financial services company specialising in the administration of assets for international clients in relation to retirement, estate and succession planning and wealth structuring. Having recommended buying the shares at 35p ('Tapping into a pensions payday', 27 April 2015), STM’s share price hit my initial target price of 47.5p, coinciding with a six-year high dating back to January 2009. I subsequently advised running your healthy profits but placed a conditional buy recommendation on a close above 48p to reflect the technical set up with a new target price of 60p, representing the pre-Lehman Brothers lows in the summer of 2008 (‘Smashing target prices’, 14 May 2015). That conditional buy advice was triggered and within a week of that article the shares had peaked out at 56p. This prompted some profit taking. However, I note that analyst Duncan Hall at broking house finnCap has just raised his target price on the shares from 45p to 55p on the back of market developments and positive company specific newsflow. He has a point as the successful flotation of Aim-traded Bristol-based rival Curtis Banks (CBP: 229p) highlights the chronic undervaluation of STM. Indeed, Curtis Bank’s market value of £100m is 30 times its annual operating profit last financial year. There is no reason at all to justify such a valuation anomaly with STM whose Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Schemes (QROPS) business, an offshore pension scheme approved by HMRC and used by expatriates and internationally mobile employees whose tax domicile can change as a consequence of employment, is highly profitable and a reliable source of income as I noted when I initiated coverage. Indeed, a 26 per cent operating profit margin from this business segment alone is highly supportive of an earnings multiple higher than 9 for fiscal 2016 given the double digit earnings growth STM is generating. Migration boosting pension plan profits Mr Hall also rightly points out that the market for such pension schemes keeps growing and for good reason too given that “migration and issues of domicile are becoming more topical throughout the EU as foreign-born population percentages rise.” For instance, the NHS reports that 26 per cent of doctors in the service have been trained overseas and that the General Medical Council sees around 4,000 applications a year for Certificates of Good Standing to allow UK registered doctors to seek work overseas. The UK government estimates 5.5m British born nationals now live overseas. So with a more mobile and affluent workforce to cater for, this can only illustrate the need for versatile savings products. Operating from centres in both Gibraltar and Malta, STM has been expanding the number of introducers with whom it works to sustain the robust sales momentum the business has been enjoying and to exploit further a captive market for long-term savings products. I would also point out that STM has been acquitted in a court case that was pursued by The Attorney General for the States of Jersey against a former employee of the company, and STM Fiduciare as defendant. I flagged up this court case in my April article, and had expected such an outcome, but it is positive nonetheless. In the circumstances, I feel that now is an opportune time to buy STM’s shares in advance of what is likely to be a bumper set of first half results in a few months time. Mr Hall at brokerage finnCap predicts that the company should grow current year pre-tax profits from £1.7m to £2.7m underpinned by a £1.8m increase in revenue to £17.7m. On this basis, expect EPS to almost double from 2p to 3.8p. But with pro-forma net cash of £4.7m on its balance sheet equivalent of 8p a share, the shares are only being priced on 10.5 times cash adjusted earnings, a bargain rating in my view. A price-to-book value of 1.3 times is hardly exacting either. To put this into some perspective, Curtis Banks is rated on closer to 8 times book value. Moreover, the increase in recurring revenue from STM’s pension business means that a modest £900,000 forecast rise in revenue to £18.6m in 2016 is expected to boost pre-tax profit by a further £1m to £3.7m, albeit profits are being enhanced by the reduction in finance charges following the redemption of the convertible loan notes. I discussed this issue in detail when I initiated coverage in April. On this basis EPS estimates surge from 3.7p in 2015 to 5p in 2016, implying that STM’s shares are trading on only 9 times next year’s likely earnings, or 7.5 times on a cash-adjusted basis. So no matter what way I look at it STM’s shares are far too lowly rated on a bid-offer spread of 44p to 47p. Strong buy. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
20/5/2015 14:29	philw2009: I missed this from Simon Thompson on 14th May... Profiting from a pension pay day It hasn’t taken long for investors to warm to the merits of STM (STM: 45p), the Aim-traded financial services company specialising in the administration of assets for international clients in relation to retirement, estate and succession planning and wealth structuring. Having recommended buying the shares at 35p only 17 days ago ('Tapping into a pensions payday', 27 April 2015), the price has surged by 28 per cent and is closing in on my initial target price of 47.5p. Investors’ enthusiasm for the shares has been fully justified too as the company released an upbeat trading update at the annual meeting yesterday. Chairman Michael Riddell noted that the business continues to make inroads in increasing its distribution network. In fact, it has signed on more intermediaries in the year to date than in the whole of the previous financial year. STM is also in the final stages of setting up a sales office in the Middle East, and recruitment for a further office in Asia is well under way too. This gives further reassurance that the company will be able to deliver on profit estimates. Analyst David Buxton at brokerage finnCap predicts that STM is on course to grow pre-tax profits this year by £1m to £2.7m based on a £1.8m increase in revenue to £17.7m. On that basis, expect EPS to almost double from 2p to 3.8p. But with pro-forma net cash of £4.7m on its balance sheet equivalent of 8p a share, the shares are still only priced on 10 times cash adjusted net earnings even after the sharp price rise. That’s hardly a punchy rating for a company that is forecast to increase EPS by 95 per cent this year. A price-to-book value of 1.15 times is hardly punchy either. Moreover, the increase in recurring revenue from STM’s pension business means that a modest £900,000 forecast rise in revenue to £18.6m in 2016 is expected to boost pre-tax profit by a further £1m to £3.7m, albeit this performance is also being enhanced by the reduction in finance charges following the redemption of the convertible loan notes I discussed in my article last month. Nevertheless, on this basis EPS estimates surge from 3.7p in 2015 to 5p in 2016, implying that STM’s shares are trading on only 9 times next year’s likely earnings, or 7.5 times on a cash-adjusted basis. That's a modest rating for a company set to deliver robust EPS growth over the next few financial years. True, the 14-day RSI is overbought at a reading of 80, but this can unwind itself without the shares selling off heavily as the price can move in a sideways fashion as has been the case with Redde. Furthermore, if STM’s share price can take out the 47.5p level, coinciding with a six-year high dating back to January 2009, then a run-up to the next price target of 60p, representing the pre-Lehman Brothers lows in the summer of 2008, would be on the cards. So if you followed my previous advice I would run your healthy profits for now and I am placing a conditional buy recommendation on the shares on a close above 48p for new investors. In this event my new target price becomes 60p. Read Full Thread Follow Reply
