Q2 shows further strength in factoring turnover

Banca Sistema’s first half figures confirmed further strength in factoring turnover and overall loans outstanding. Market conditions for factoring in Italy remain favourable and salary and pension-backed lending continues to offer good opportunities with the potential for a lower capital burden subject to regulatory discussions. Banca Sistema still trades on modest multiples, but continued growth in the loan book combined with success in delivering a return on equity of over 20% should provide the basis for a rerating.

Banca Systema (BST) is an Italian speciality finance provider with factoring as its main activity.

In consumer finance, BST has established a strong position in salary and pension-backed lending and has a small but growing pawnbroking business, providing alternative sources of growth and diversification.

AAC Clyde Space - Solid start to the year with further order growth

AAC Clyde Space offers exposure to the fast-growing low Earth orbit space market. A solid start to the year and continued order momentum are encouraging. We also note the internal restructuring to promote delivery of the group’s products and services. We expect this combination to drive an improving performance, albeit within the lumpy nature of the business, in turn improving investor confidence and the stock’s valuation.
