Shares in Gear4Music (G4M) have collapsed close to 50 per cent this morning, after management warned capacity problems at its York distribution centre meant cash profits for 2019 were likely to be below last year’s £3.46m. This has led to swingeing cuts to forecasts, with analyst Peel Hunt now expecting pre-tax profit of £800,000 for the year, from £2.6m previously, and EPS of 3p, from 10.3p before. We move to hold..
Profit down to 30% of previous guidance for me that puts the share price at £1.67.... Chuck in some forward growth fair price £1.90....
