FT Alphaville:


BE
Which is still Yule Catto, to me at least, because I've been doing this too long. H2 misses by about 5%, cash flow surprisingly weak

BE
And nothing useful in the way of 2019 guidance.


Cazenove:

2H18 underlying results are below JPMe and company consensus with 2H Adj EBIT of £62.7m (flat YoY) 2.9%/5.3% below JPMe/cons with the miss on 2H PBT of 0.6%/3.4% vs. JPMe/cons.

FY18 Adj EBIT of £142.1m (+2.2% YoY; flat in CC) was lower than JPMe/cons of £144m/£145.6m. 2H miss was primarily driven by the miss in the Europe and North America (ENA) division.

2H Adj EBIT in this division around 15% below JPMe/cons and down 11.4% YoY (FY18 EBIT down 5% YoY and down 5.8% YoY in CC) reflecting primarily the impact from weaker demand and customer inventory destocking in 4Q18.

On the other hand, the adj EBIT in Asia and ROW (ARW) division in 2H18 was strong with 36.5% YoY growth (FY18 EBIT up 30% YoY and up 25.6% YoY on CC) ....

.... driven by the higher than expected tailwind from tighter demand/supply environment in the nitrile latex division

2H18 FCF was well below our estimate due to higher capex resulting in FY18 end net debt of £214m (1.2x TTM EBITDA) vs.JPMe of £186.5m and £180.5m in FY17-end (1x EBITDA). Company is indicating furtherprogress in FY19 without specific guidance. Current FY19 Adj EBIT consensus implies almost 11% YoY growth which seems high to us with our current FY19E EBIT around 6% below consensus. FY18 proposed dividend is modestly higher than expectations.

Morgan Stanley:

Bottom line… We expect the shares to be soft given (1) ~5% H2’18 EBIT miss, (2)
weaker operating free cash flow, and (3) likely (2-5%) FY’19 cons PBT
downgrades, we think. Synthomer reported H2’18 sales of £785.1m, ~6% ahead of
consensus (£739.4m). However, EBIT for the period was £62.7m, ~5% below cons
(£66.2m), largely a consequence of softer market dynamics in Europe & North
America (destocking, volatile raws), and with the company citing some
transactional headwinds from a softer USD (FY’18 -£10m). H2’18 PBT of £58.9m
was ~3.4% below consensus (£61m). Divisionally ENA was soft down greater than 10% YoY
in the second half (incl. positive portfolio and synergy effects), while ARW was
broadly stable YoY, as Synthomer ramped up its capacity expansion in Q4’18. At
the end of the year, net debt/EBITDA increased to 1.2x (1.1x at the end of 1H’18),
as underlying operating cash flow decreased to £20.0m (from £77.9m in FY17)
with a significant increase in WC (£35m outflow vs £9.5m inflow in FY17),
particularly as raw material prices increased in Q4’18 vs Q4’17 and capex
increased to £75.7m (FY17 £60.3m) mainly due to previously announced capacity
expansions in Malaysia, Germany, US and Italy.

DPS of 13.1 was slightly below
cons. expectations (DPS 13.4). We will look to clarify at this morning’s
presentation, the FY’19 guidance which calls for ‘further progress’, versus the
significant step up (+9%) implied in cons. PBT expectations.

Not sure if this is correct ..

Market report:

"...On the downside, Synthomer slumped as its full-year earnings before interest and tax missed analysts' expectations"

Since 8th of June 2018 in fact. Must be that tho' as the numbers don't seem to me to justify a drop of 10% and nothing seems much different from the trading update a few months ago, but what do I know, not a lot! Been in and out here for over 10 years and the share has been very good for me. Wondering about a top up as this fall seems overdone?

Risk is this...As announced on 8 June 2018, the European Commission (the Commission) initiated an investigation into practices relating to the purchase of styrene monomer by companies, including Synthomer, operating in the European Economic Area. The Company takes competition laws very seriously and will continue to fully cooperate with the Commission during its ongoing investigation.

Top FTSE250 faller this morning.


All I could find...

Europe and North America saw sharply falling raw material prices in the fourth quarter, which affected customer buying behaviour and led to a softer trading environment in the final quarter of the year.

Results look good but market doesn't think so. Not enough growth?

Revenue up 9.4% at £1.6bn

Record Underlying profit before tax, up 3.9% at £135.1m

The Group absorbed a total of £10.1m of USD currency transactional headwind

IFRS profit before tax up 39.2% at £120.3m (2017: £86.4m)
