Die Zahlen finde gut. Der Umsatz konnte gut gesteigert werden. Die operative Marge ist stabilpositiv. Das EPS war trotz des Wachstums fast immer positiv. Es wird auch Dividende gezahlt, wobei ich noch nicht ganz verstehe warum. Die Aktienanzahl ist um 50% gestiegen. Die Buchwertsteigerung gefällt mir.

Strategie

Auszug aus dem Geschäftsbericht 2015:

 

Zitat
Develop the Group through a “buy-and-build” programme of carefully structured acquisitions, supported by long-term organic individual business development. Target companies need to meet exacting performance criteria that supports sustainable sales, profits and cash generation. Core value is created through the repayment of debt used to acquire target companies and organic sales growth. The scientific instrument sector is a robust market, supporting long-term organic growth and cashflow generation, underpinned by long-term global drivers, based on growth in higher education and the industrial push to improve optimisation, which requires measurement.

The UK is a recognised worldwide centre of excellence for scientific instrument development and manufacture, placing us in a good position to consolidate and support a fragmented market, characterised by over 2,000 privately held businesses in the UK alone.

 

Zitat
The Group’s strategy is based on creating shareholder returns through highly selective and carefully structured acquisitions, underpinned by solid and consistent earnings and cash flows arising from our acquired businesses.

The Group’s acquisition model is to acquire small/medium sized scientific instrument companies, paying a disciplined multiple of earnings and to finance any acquisition generally through existing cash resources and/or the Group’s revolving acquisition facility. We are highly selective in acquiring businesses with long-term sustainable profits and cash flows which then result in immediate and long-term earnings enhancement for our shareholders. It is paramount that acquisitions are completed only when the Directors are satisfied that the target business has sound long-term strength. As our Group grows it is then able to pay down the acquisition debt more rapidly, making space to reinvest in further acquisitions, subject to our prudent approach on gearing.

The underlying market for scientific instruments remains robust and the sector’s long-term growth drivers provides comfort that the Group will continue to deliver strong long-term returns for shareholders. Market drivers are based on expanding higher education and the continued worldwide drive across science and industry for improved measurement and optimisation.

Kunden

Meine Einschätzung

Auf das Unternehmen bin ich durch die Präsentation von Polleit und Reichert gestoßen. Ich bitte euch mal einen Blick da rein zu werfen. Sie sind der Frage nachgegangen, ob Judges ein großartiges Business sein könnte (Definition siehe ppp):

greatbusiness.PNG

 

Für mich klingt die Einschätzung zu Judges durchaus so interessant, dass ich die Aktie hier weiter diskutieren will. Das Unternehmen hat unter Beweis gestellt, dass es sein Kapital sehr sinnvoll investieren kann. Es gibt Chancen durch schlaue Zukäufe langfristig zu wachsen. Aber das Geschäftsmodell hat auch seine Limitierungen. Wiederkehrende Umsätze fehlen. Die Hauptabhängigkeit des Geschäftsmodells besteht von der öffentlichen Hand. Das kann - insbesondere in Zeiten von Austerität - zu rückschlägen führen.
