Rubber what's your thoughts on LUCE comparison to UPGS?

[rubberbullets] 01/5/2018 10:45

Good stuff

From last update- 62% of FY revenue was delivered in H1 2017, as opposed to 53% and 54% in FY 2016 and FY 2015, respectively). If the ratio returns to more normal levels of 53:47 then it's will be a beat. If there remains a 62:38 split then ebita should still be in the region of £7.25m....still a mild beat of estimates.

Because the first half has Xmas sales in them

[epo001] 30/4/2018 10:12

Bought these on the mid Feb bounce thinking "surely they must have bottomed out". WRONG! Now more or less back to where I came in and have to decide whether to feel fortunate I can get my money back or hope for a recovery. Don't mind that interim divi halved, if an indication of size of final divi then UPGS still yielding about 6.5%

[senor_sensible] 30/4/2018 09:42

GREAT RECOVERY PLAY HERE!!!!!! Hold for Full year and IMO will be at least 200% profit from here

[topvest] 30/4/2018 09:42

Looks OK to me. Transition year. Recovery hopefully in 2019.

[cheshire man] 30/4/2018 08:47

I'm with you there NY Boy and pleased I took a holding on the recent lows :-)

[ny boy] 30/4/2018 08:39

Good progress, nice recovery play over the next few years.

[kirk 6] 30/4/2018 07:55

Agreed the full year dividend will be paid in December 2018

[massimoj] 30/4/2018 07:48

Based on interim dividend of .83p, using last year's dividend split, gives a dividend of around 2.5-2.6p and estimated full year EPS of over 5p. And that's a very dissapointing year for them The current rating of less than 7x earnings is almost absurdly low for a founder run cash generative business with great long term prospects.

Ebitda might be ahead from German beating expectations

[trinko] 30/4/2018 07:45

Someone pre -open?

[greenknight1] 30/4/2018 07:42

EBITA ahead of expectations. Advised in last update full year would be within a range of GBP6.0m to GBP7.0m. Half year already GBP4.5m.

[w1ndjammer] 30/4/2018 07:39

Net debt at 31 January 2018 of GBP6.7 million, down 34.9% (31 January 2017: GBP10.2 million)
-- Interim dividend of 0.83 pence per share, payable on 27 July 2018 to shareholders on the register on 6 July 2018

-- Current trading for FY 2018 in line with management expectations

"it is anticipated that the operating profits for the second half of the year ending 31 July 2018 will be lower than those for the six months ended 31 January 2018".

Revenue in Germany for the first 6 months was £1m.
