Posted at 16/7/2019 09:59 by kinwah Rossco I think you are broadly right. The issue with the brands business is that on a product launch you get an initial sales boost when the distributors order but that is followed by a sales dip as the consumers use the product at home. Hopefully at a later stage the consumers purchase the product again and sales build. IDP is a good stock to look at for comparison as it faces the same issues of new products and shelf space. In fact SWL buying IDP could make sense as regards product fit. |
Posted at 15/7/2019 13:47 by kinwah Telbap is looking at the total liabilities which include the trade creditors. SWL retains the pension fund liabilities but hopefully won't be forced to pay in a lump sum. SWL will be well cashed up and will be on the acquisition trail if no-one buys it first. |
Posted at 15/7/2019 07:28 by kinwah Danny you got that spot on. They are sticking with the brands but selling the manufacturing business for more than the market cap. This will leave Swallowfield as a cash rich acquirer which can go out and pick up brands with long term growth potential. The shares look cheap and SWL could attract a bid bearing in mind what they paid for the brands originally. |
Posted at 15/11/2018 16:56 by countryman5 AGM went well. We have a very smart executive team and I believe that the brands business is going to dominate the profit growth of this company. The contract / manufacturing side of the business is flexible and they are focusing on those sectors where they recognise that they have an advantage. The new CEO has great experience, including international brands. He believes that the SWL brands have great international appeal. They are expecting the debt to shrink fairly quickly. |

Posted at 03/1/2018 11:07 by cautious investor Adam - See annual report p29-30:"Underlying operating profit is shown before charges for share-based payments, with a provision made of £1.76m (2016: £0.22m), reflecting the share price appreciation in the year and the impact on the accounting valuation of the phantom shares awarded at the closing share-price of 395p (2016: 180p). The majority of the charge on share-based incentives relates to awards made in 2014 and become exercisable towards the end of 2017. These share options were put in place in order to incentivise the Group’s wider management team (including the executive directors of Swallowfield) and to ensure that their interests are aligned with shareholders. At the time, this incentive plan was introduced the average share price was 95p and since that time shareholders have been rewarded with a capital improvement of over 250% in addition to progressive dividend income." |
Posted at 30/8/2017 15:44 by karadas09 @martinthebrave. I hope so too, but the last trading update didn’t seem to inspire much of a price move and I expect the FY results to be broadly as indicated in the Trading Update. I suspect the share price weakness might persist as the whole personal goods sector seems to have turned negative since I took the plunge and bought a stake in SWL.That said the acquisition last year has proven to be immediately effective, and once the results are in the P/E ratio will likely move to a level which might grab the attention of value seekers. Aside from sound fundamentals, the overall growth strategy laid out by SWL under current management makes a lot of sense to me. Also my wife tells me their products are in her (well informed) opinion nicely packaged and very good! |
