RE: Times article Profits 65.2M16 Jun 2021 12:53
look at my posts from 18/19 March - I show the reconciliation there from the 116.5M PROFIT made from trading and then deduct the one off costs to close offices etc to reconcile to the retained 49M loss
I also show the whole workings of 2021 projected Profit of 200-225m
ANYONE that can read financial statements or who is involved in M&A activities at long as me understands the differnece
As I said back then - I cant help you anymore if you dont understand the difference - same as those thinking debt is higher than it is because of the adoption of IFRS accounting fro 2019
Look at post history from then and learn
Passwind bangs on about loss making legacy contracts as if they are material in value - they are worth maybe 20M EBIT and most will now have been turnaround by cost management and regegotiation
Some of the events businesses will again struggle this year so that is why I say 2021 Profit to be 200-225M now as 225M in March was assuming some further recovery there
Enough cash to service debt to end of 2022 (without further disposals) and free cash from trading (which was positive in 2020 and will increase in 2021 as profit translates to cash
If PE wanted a bargain, they maybe able get this for circa 80p IMO - that would be a shame for us LTH as I keep saying this will be 1.00 to 1.20 by end of year / early 2022
The amount of IIs here though that know that this will translate to 120 and increase in 2022 may not be supportive of a sale at that price
Anyway, thanks for warning us - do your job and get this sub 35p please I have 50k waiting to jump in for more
