31-Jul-25 Berenberg Bank Buy 280.00p

06-Mar-25 Deutsche Buy 300.00p

Top ten holders account for about 80 per cent of the shares which, as analysts at Panmure Liberum noted in a recent equity research report, means that it would be relatively easy for a purchaser to get to the “magic” 75 per cent threshold to clinch a takeover. A bidder would, though, need to get past potential blocking stakes. The top-ten holders have average in-prices of between 200p and 240p, compared with Mediclinic’s 297p.

So what would they accept. Has to have a 3 in front.

Investec analysts said: 'Halfords cash generation means it can ride out the current, very challenging, short-term market environment without impacting its strong balance sheet or its future capex plans, and is well-positioned for when markets recover to deliver material profit upside.'
