Record - Positive outlook for FY24

Record continues to deliver on its diversification and modernisation strategy, reporting FY23 revenues of £44.7m, up 27% y-o-y. Excluding exceptionally strong performance fees of £5.8m, revenues grew by a solid 12% with all areas contributing. Additionally, in the Q124 trading update, Record earned performance fees of £0.5m, implying a run rate above our forecast for FY24. During Q124, net outflows of $2.5bn were recorded, predominantly in passive hedging. Our estimates are broadly unchanged since the passive hedging product is a lower fee earner. The strong pipeline of opportunities in Asset Management implies a material contribution to operating profit in FY24 and beyond. We introduce FY25 revenue and diluted EPS expectations of £52.0m and 6.97p, respectively, conservatively factoring in no major new asset management wins in FY25.

Record - Underlying growth and pipeline are attractive

In H124, Record posted steady management fee growth of 3% y-o-y to £19.6m as the company benefited from a higher assets under management equivalent (AUME) base. Total revenues, however, were down 3% as performance fees in H123 outweighed those earned in H124. Profit before tax was down 17% y-o-y to £6.3m as Record incurred costs related to its expansion and modernisation initiatives. In line with its progressive dividend policy, Record increased its dividend by 5% y-o-y to 2.15p per share.

Record - Core inflows solid but delays in new product line

In its Q224 update, Record reported core inflows of US$1.5bn that were more than offset by US$3.4bn of negative market and FX movements. Consequently, Record experienced a 2% net decline in assets under management equivalent (AUME) of US$1.9bn versus Q124. Record also earned performance fees of £1m in Q224 as the group continued to benefit from interest rate differentials. Management stated that the higher-margin asset management product rollout continues to progress, albeit at a slower pace than initially planned. Due to the shift in timing, we have scaled back our FY24 and FY25 PBT forecasts...

Information Services Corporation - Strong underlying growth, guidance reiterated

Information Services Corporation’s (ISC’s) Q124 results highlight the strength of the underlying business, with topline and adjusted EBITDA growth of 15% and 34%, respectively, augmented by the sustained organic growth of the Services division and CPI fee adjustments. This progress was made less obvious at the statutory net income level by increases in interest costs and share-based compensation expenses of C$5.0m and C$5.8m, respectively. FY24 guidance has been reiterated, and we maintain our forecasts and valuation of C$40/share, implying 58% upside.

PVA TePla - Material matters

PVA TePla has transitioned from a small seller of industrial systems to a materials technology and metrology solutions company, set to reach c €280m in revenues in FY24. Its increasing exposure to the fast-growing semiconductor industry (more than two-thirds of sales) and high-end materials markets is securing growth, driven by AI, digitisation and e-mobility. The combination of a higher capital intensity in the semiconductor industry and growing end markets bodes well for players like PVA TePla, which are exposed to the fast-growing part of equipment sales like metrology. Despite this, PVA Te...

Zalaris - Continuing contract momentum in FY24

Zalaris reported its ninth consecutive quarter of year-on-year revenue growth in Q124, up to a record NOK318m. New contract momentum has continued, while the net retention rate of existing clients within Managed Services was 109%, driven by an increase in upselling of additional services. Profitability is improving as the benefits from its EBIT improvement programme are bearing fruit alongside operational leverage. Zalaris’s strong contract momentum has led us to upgrade our revenue estimates by 1.9% to NOK1,275m for the year at an improved adjusted EBIT margin of 10.9%, more closely reflectin...
