Sylvania Platinum - Lower rhodium prices overshadow strong production

Sylvania Platinum saw a significant quarter-on-quarter reduction in EBITDA in Q423 due to lower rhodium prices. We have lowered our rhodium and palladium price forecasts for the next two years, because of predicted demand in China and some de-stocking from OEMs, and have also reduced our long-term assumptions to allow for the current uncertainty. Our FY23e EPS has been adjusted downwards to 18.3c, with FY24e and FY25e EPS reduced by 40% to 9.0c and 11.2c, respectively. Our revised valuation is now 118.2p per share, 32% down from our previous valuation of 173.7p per share.

Sylvania Platinum - Earnings upside with chrome JV kicker in Q425

Sylvania reported FY24 EPS of 2.7c against our expectation of 5.8c and down 85% on the prior year due to mainly a 35% lower PGM 4E basket price. In addition, the company suffered the effects of much lower platinum group metal (PGM) prices, a delayed recovery in production and elevated levels of expense. The results included more granularity on the Thaba joint venture (JV), including accounting treatment and the outlook to FY28. However, thanks to high chrome prices and a better understanding of the price that Sylvania will receive at mine gate, we have lifted our near-term JV forecasts. We hav...

Sylvania Platinum - Long-term PGM price upside

Sylvania’s Q424 results were negatively affected by a delayed recovery in production following the 22-day strike during Q324. This resulted in 21% lower revenue than expected and EBITDA of only US$2.8m, 68% below our expectation. We have reduced our near-term platinum group metals (PGM) price assumptions on the back of elevated surface inventories and sustained South African production, but bolstered our long-term forecasts due to an expected higher demand for platinum and palladium on the back of fibreglass, hydrogen economy and hybrid vehicle demand. We forecast a recovery in production for ...

Impact Healthcare REIT - Successful turnaround

Impact Healthcare REIT has completed the transfer of four homes located in Scotland to a new tenant. As a result, all of the seven homes that have been operating on an intermediate basis (as part of a turnaround plan) have now been transferred to experienced, long-term operators. The resumption of rental payments from all seven assets will provide a significant uplift to cash rental income, the basis for dividend decisions. Under the new operators, the assets also provide additional and accretive asset management opportunities.

abrdn UK Smaller Companies Growth Trust - Solid relative performance recovery continues

abrdn UK Smaller Companies Growth Trust’s (AUSC’s) relative performance continues to improve as managers Abby Glennie and Amanda Yeaman build on the solid outperformance of the trust versus the reference index in FY24. Their bottom-up stock selection process, which includes the use of a screen known as the Matrix, remains unchanged; the market has been more bottom-up rather than top-down focused and is rewarding good company updates. Portfolio companies are trading well, and their businesses have strong underlying momentum. Market share gains have been evident across the portfolio as managemen...

Accsys Technologies - Tricoya project to be discontinued

Accsys will discontinue the Tricoya project in Hull, England, as it has not found a financial or strategic partner to finalise the construction of the plant. The project started in 2017 and was put on hold in November 2022 after several problems during construction. Accsys will write down the remaining book value of €20m and will need €4.5m for the discontinuation and winding up of the plant. Although this is a setback for the company’s strategy to boost Tricoya sales, Accsys will continue to supply Accoya material to produce Tricoya panels. Our discounted cash flow (DCF) comes in lower at €0....
