Business
Sales up, profits up, dividend
up. Why are Renew’s shares
no higher than in 2016?
IT IS time that we took another look at
Renew Holdings, the engineering
services company that last year
embarked on a significant takeover.
We said then that we tended to
take a sceptical view of the
claimed benefits of large
acquisitions and would
keep a close eye on
progress.
Happily, we can report
that the takeover, of a firm
called QTS, shows every
sign of success.
In its interim report for
the six months to the end of
March, published in June, the
company said it had seen “record
trading in the period, in part
reflecting the contribution of QTS,
which was acquired in May 2018
and is now fully integrated”.
It said the “excellent revenue
performance” of its engineering
services division, which is the
“key driver of growth for
the group” and accounts
for more than 90pc of
its revenue and more than 95pc of
operating profits, was a reflection of
the impact of QTS.
Numis, the stockbroker, said:
“With the full weight of QTS in
the first-half numbers, we
always expected a strong
performance.”
The interim figures
were highly encouraging
all round. Sales grew by
14.9pc from the same time
last year to £301m, while
profits before tax on a
statutory basis increased
sevenfold to £17.7m. Operating
profits on an adjusted basis,
meanwhile, increased by 39pc to
£18.4m.
Adjusted operating profit margins
increased by more than a fifth to 6.1pc
from 5pc, while adjusted earnings per
share were 19.2p, compared with 16.7p
last time.
And readers of this column, focused
on the income from their shares above
all else, will be pleased to hear that the
interim dividend was raised by 15pc to
3.83p. In light of this, Numis raised its
prediction for the full-year dividend
from 10.5p to 11.5p. As last year’s
payment was 10p, that would
represent an increase of 15pc.
Although it was highly reassuring
that all the signs pointed to a
successful integration of QTS,
“organic” growth from the existing
businesses was also strong – organic
growth in the key engineering
services division was 8pc. Overall the
division’s sales growth was 25pc, while
its earnings before interest and tax
grew by 48pc and its margins (on the
same measure of profits) grew by more
than a percentage point to 6.8pc.
Key to future growth will be
Renew’s rail operations and here too
the signs are promising. Network Rail,
the body that owns and maintains
Britain’s tracks and stations, is
entering a new budgetary period and
Renew should benefit significantly.
“Management has previously
indicated, and reiterates here [in the
interim results], that having been
appointed across all tendered-for
renewals in [the new period] Renew is
in a very strong position for an
increase of about 25pc in Network Rail
operational spending from 2019-20
onwards,” Numis said.
One of the company’s key strengths
is that much of the work it carries out
for Network Rail and similar
infrastructure owners simply has to be
carried out, irrespective of factors that
can blow other spending plans off
course, such as a recession or Brexit.
Renew is not a company where we
have to worry about debts. Net
borrowing fell by £4.2m compared
with the end of the previous financial
year and now stands at £17.2m. Numis
predicted that the figure would fall
further to £10.9m by the end of this
year, making it just a fifth of annual
profits on the “Ebitda” measure, a level
seen as very prudent by analysts.
Better still, the broker said it
expected Renew to move into having
net cash next year.
Despite the firm’s progress, its
shares stand barely moved from the
392p at which we tipped them in
November 2016, although they have
been as high as 487p and as low as
333p over the period. As ever, aversion
on the part of investors both domestic
and international towards the London
stock market in general, and those
stocks focused on the British
economy in particular, is likely to be
the culprit. Hold.
