The company has been very selective in partnering and aligning new businesses that are easily integrate-able with their mature businesses. The synergies are key for achieving and maximising bottom line impact and with a strong management team and fully engaged staff, results will be stronger.
Excellence in service and product offerings have been suitably diversified to ensure consistency of cross sales diversification which will bear fruit.
Exciting times and major opportunities for increasing marketing share through organic growth alongside acquisitions and strategic partnering. Good costs management is at the heart of this business and it won’t be long before their revenues are growing 10-15% yr on yr so shareholders can expect growth in valuation and distributions. All so very positive.
It’s likely the M&A announcement last Friday is just one of half a dozen they’re working on. This company has so much potential is is going to be a major player idc……
Acquisitions have been key to boost distribution diversification and the recent one announced last Friday provides an additional 5 outlets for this. With £1m profits pa on this timber company alone, the purchase price of £2.3mn is excellent business. Management are diligent and the interim results may be mixed but the group’s resistance and green drive in its products will maintain the revenue and grow profits through tight costs control, better margins with improved employees incentives driving the business forward (motivational rewards). This week interims will be solid so bag these as the full year they will deliver stronger results in a very challenging negative macro economic environment. 77p /79p by the end of the coming week…and then onto 90p hopefully in the run up to the year end……
I have followed Lords even before their IPO and it has been no surprise how they have progressed. They maintain a solid business strategy blended by a talented leadership team. Look forward to positivity in the months/ years ahead
I suspected there would be news and I predicted this some days back. No doubt there is more to come and I think the interim results will boost the SP further so the next 8 trading days should see the SP continue to rally….
The SP has been suppressed for way too long….we will see shareholders rewarded for their faith and patience … 70p and then it will push through 80p imho…. analysts predicted 116p by the year end…
Looking good for 70p…
See RNS…great purchase….
Even in a near recession when inflation and interest rates have risen significantly, the company will have found demand for it’s products wavering but will have still achieved improved trading performance in a turbulent economic environment. This will highlight the depth of the core customer base and managements high quality service standards which makes the Lords franchise unique and trusted. Even though IPO targets may not be achieved fully, the direction of travel for the group will be positive overall. 75p is a realistic next stop leading to a decent full year outcome of growth and improved net profits. 90p is again realistic come the year end in December…….
It is fair to say that with the current economic challenges, the company will be doing everything to meet sale / revenue targets and improved margins with effective cost measures operating. Alongside this they are, as the CEO confirmed, are always looking for new partnership (acquisitions) where there are clear synergies and opportunities to enhance ebitda. Hopefully there will be news on these opportunities…. but overall I absolutely rate this company and the opportunities for growth considering the small market share they have currently. The current SP does not at all reflect the positive facts and strong leadership within the group.
A week to before the half year results will be official. Strong demand over the next week will see these make solid progress as I trust in the prudent management team to be responding actively in a difficult consumer market with performance on track and another record t/o year with improved margins and a 10% rise in net profits and a higher dividend. We shall see but for now, the sp remains cheap and attractive longer term…..
Should see these rally now. Results on track I’m sure and dividend increase no doubt.. never really understood the pricing of the sp … suppressed and way below valuation…should be at £1…..
My expectations are they’re on track albeit some variations in performance but positive overall. Looking forward to a rise of 10%…at least….
The game is up…… expect something very exciting…… Wickes I’m thinking……
Sorry I missed the recent lows, but happy to buy in when I did.
A solid, well-run company with an acquisitive streak.
Mr CEO, an update will help me with my next post a lot sooner….
We can expect sales of £500mn and better margins …so the current SP yield of 4-4.5% …a higher dividend and improving pe ratio…. I love this company and its hardworking staff…board…incentives are invaluable and well deserved…
Yes we can…..should expect a trading update from Shanker P in the coming period, hopefully!
Will we see 90p….??? This company SP should be way beyond that…. at this level I’m really surprised there’s no serious M&A interest….the only way is up….!
I meant “buy” these @ 57.99p
You can these below mid…(57.99p)…. the SP has been forced down on the back of a few sales over the past 5 months…it rarely gets marked up which bothers me as there seems to only be one intention in seeing it fall flat on its face. As long as there’s a good spread then what drives the SP value? Surely profitability and yield which gets more attractive as the SP is crushed!
I’d love to know who is behind the manipulation of this SP…. Take the division send…sell through the floor and buy back cheap! You should be prosecuted…
So a trade struck at the aforementioned price is recorded as unknown really? Why? So it’s not a crossing trade at mid as it’s reported as an ordinary trade so why is the trade type not known? Please someone explain…. farcical……
I really wonder how a SP value is determined as this company seems to drop through the floor on the back of small value trade sells. Unless I’m mistaken, and m&a would surely be at no less than 85p albeit they’re worth more than a £1 based on projected p&l and sales forecast. Why do these never rise or get the demand and value based on BS strength? Unbelievably disappointed with the battered SP…..
The MM has been desperate to mark these down and open the spread. Days they been at 61-62 but purchase have been below mid at 61.15p -61.3p. So purchases were showing as sales!! So today small sales and MM moves THEM to 58p-61p!!! Wonderful!!
