Carr's Group (CARR): Local, international and sustainable

 

Diversification means Carr's Group provides essential infrastructure to the global nuclear industry and occupies a critical position in food supply chains in the UK, the US and Europe. As a result, almost all of its businesses have remained operational during the coronavirus pandemic. While group profitability was adversely affected by the low oil price caused by the pandemic, we see potential for recovery driven by greater penetration of international markets for animal feed supplements during FY21 and a return to more normal oil prices from FY22 onwards.

 

Our DCF analysis gives an indicative value of 170p/share (unchanged). Confirmation that outperformance in the Agriculture division can compensate for the reduced Engineering revenues associated with a low oil price should, in our view, support the share price and help move it back towards our indicative valuation. So should news of the delayed major engineering order from Japan.

Carr's Group - At an inflexion point

Carr’s Group plan to dispose of the Engineering businesses remains on track and will leave the company as a focused agricultural supplies business. Restructuring (both the cost base and exiting loss-making activities) along with actions from the new management and potential from a market upturn should provide positive forward momentum and support the future growth strategy.

Carr's Group - An enhanced value creation strategy

Carr’s Group has announced an updated strategy that offers the potential for value realisation and creation from a number of avenues. These include: value realisation of the Engineering Division; the ability to significantly reduce central costs; and longer-term value creation in the Agriculture Division as a focused business with recovery potential and a strategy to leverage its strong market positions for growth.

Carr's Group - Cautious optimism

Cyclical weakness in Carr’s Group’s Speciality Agriculture business has affected the company’s fortunes of late. However, the new management team, a strong net cash balance sheet and a record order book in the Engineering division offer optimism. Operational progress, particularly a reversal of fortunes in Speciality Agriculture, should rebuild confidence and a reduction in the current discount to our view of the underlying value.
