Foxtons Group - Strong results, dividend and share buy back in H2
Foxtons Group’s core London market has been improving all year and the interim results highlight both the recovery and the contribution from recent acquisitions. Furthermore, the company announced a return to paying dividends in respect of the half year and given the strength of both trading and the balance sheet, revealed a £3m share buyback programme that should augment earnings. We retain our underlying assumptions but raise our valuation by 1p to 130p to reflect the share buyback.Foxtons Group is a holding company.
