Posted at 02/5/2024 21:22 by bountyhunter Maybe he's moving to a bigger house or time was running out on exercising those share options. I don't think that one transaction is "an important signal to investors". |
Posted at 02/5/2024 21:14 by philanderer Nigel Jones, Group Operations Director at Whitbread PLC, has executed a significant transaction by exercising nil cost options for over 14,000 shares, which were immediately sold for a total of around £450,000. The shares were acquired through the company’s Recruitment and Retention Scheme and Incentive Scheme, reflecting notable insider activity on 1st May 2024 in London. This move could be an important signal to investors about the company’s stock valuation and insider confidence. |
Posted at 02/5/2024 10:18 by sumday Short piece in Shares Magazine today. Briefly, Uk part of the business doing as well as can be expected. German side improving. If there is disappointment, it’s because they haven’t sold as many Beefeater and Brewers Fayre as hoped.“Investors who are short of patience may want to cut their losses but we think long-term investors will be rewarded with earnings upgrades and a re-rating of the shares, assuming management sticks to the plan.” |
Posted at 04/3/2024 13:02 by gswredland Probably has a part to play but many shares that were powering away are being affected now such as JDW and SMWH. Investors nervous at present about the outlook |
Posted at 29/2/2024 11:16 by steeplejack "Hotel group Dalata said it hit a new record in 2023, with revenue reaching 600 million as the company continued to pursue its growth strategy."Perhaps the figures undershot expectations but the results don't suggest the hotel trading environment is onerous.The deterioration in Germany sales data is probably the likely trigger. The company's German expansion is the current focus of investor attention.Also there's the insider sale the other day.So a number of factors packaged to generate a bit of broker business. |

Posted at 03/11/2023 13:36 by philanderer Afternoon EI.Can't find any news today. This from monday, which I missed, as I was actually staying in Hereford over the weekend in a Premier Inn :-) "JPMorgan downgrades IHG, keeps Whitbread as top hotels pick" 31 Oct, 2023 09:35 JPMorgan says Premier Inn owner Whitbread remains its top pick in the European hotels sector, as it downgraded its stance on IHG from 'neutral' to 'underweight'. With earnings season now behind us for European Hotels, JPMorgan has refreshed its forecasts for stocks in its coverage, keeping Whitbread as its "conviction 'overweight'", seeing around 40% upside potential to current prices with a price target of 4,600p. "We continue to see WTB as best positioned – defensive offering (value/domestic), upside risk to estimates, F&B potential review, Germany optionality," the bank said. "Whilst concerns around weakening demand trends remain on top of investors' minds, as reflected in recent share price weakness at Whitbread and Accor (both down >10% in the last six weeks), also exacerbated by potential demand pressure in the Middle-East, we have been surprised by the outperformance of IHG, and now see the risk-reward as highly unappealing."

Posted at 09/8/2023 11:30 by commuter10 Thanks Phil, need to renew mine as well! If you buy your shares via Barclays you'll need to ask their admin to request for you. I had to with Interactive Investor but should be straight forward. Onwards & upwards! |
Posted at 10/7/2023 10:36 by philanderer Whitbread potential isn’t priced in, says SVM duoThe rating given to Whitbread (WTB) does not fully reflect the growth potential at the owner of Premier Inn, say SVM managers Margaret Lawson and Neil Veitch. The pair hold Whitbread in the £96m SVM UK Growth fund, where it makes up 1% of assets. In their latest update, they noted that the Citywire Elite Companies AAA-rated business is operating in areas with further growth potential, namely Germany and the UK. ‘The biggest growth potential is in Germany where the group believes it can expand sevenfold or more,’ they said. ‘But the UK is also not viewed as saturated, with the possibility of 50% expansion in the room estate. The British business is profitable and cash generative, although with significant capital expenditure as it invests for growth. Germany is in loss, but hotels trading for more than 12 months are profitable.’ Structural shifts in the UK hotel market are also improving the pricing power and market share of the group, with pre-tax profit margins almost back to 2020 levels of 20%. ‘Whitbread showed strong trading momentum in its annual results to the end of February 2023, and has reported a strong trading start to the current year. UK occupancy and room rates are helping to drive this growth,’ said Lawson and Veitch. ‘The combination of like-for-like room revenue, an expansion of the number of rooms, and a growing dividend should drive profits growth. There is potential for Germany to move into breakeven within two years.’ The managers predicted that further cash could be returned to investors, and sales of poorer-performing units in the UK are under consideration. ‘The rating does not appear to fully reflect growth potential,’ they said. The shares climbed 0.3%, or 10p, to £33.09 at the end of last week. citywire.com |
Posted at 18/4/2023 13:57 by philanderer Peel Hunt again...Premier Inn’s German expansion makes Whitbread a ‘buy’ Premier Inn owner Whitbread (WTB) is reaching the turning point in terms of scale as it hurtles towards 50 hotels in Germany, says Peel Hunt analyst Ivor Jones. With only six Premier Inns across Germany before Covid, investors ‘never had a chance to assess the Premier Inn business as a trading entity in Germany, Jones said, recommending the group a ‘buy’, given its cohort of hotels that are ‘contributions positive, which should encourage investors to re-evaluate.’ ‘It was clear that the roll-out (and conversion) of hotels is planned rigorously and executed efficiently, with a focus on getting the hotels into operation as quickly as possible,’ he added, giving a target price of £40. Peel Hunt believes the shares, trading at nearly 18 times forecast earnings, could rise a third from their current level. The shares firmed 0.7% or 20p to £31.06 yesterday. citywire.com |
