Conclusions
Very Solid Results. ScanGroup has a Lock on the Market and I think Advertising Spend will continue to expand at above Historic Trend Levels. The Shares are well held [Sorrell WPP have 27.5%] and the Float is actually thin. I think a PE of 20.392 is a Fair price but given the thinness of the Float and the Fact that Scangroup remains the only listed Proxy with which to play the Sector [unless You include Nation and Standard] - I think the PE will range between 20-25
from here, especially given the Bonus Sweetener, which might create a near term squeeze. Share Price is +100.692% through today, 16th April. |
