Altron - Rising star
Altron is a South African-based provider of platforms and IT services, helping businesses transform and operate their IT. As part of the plan to refocus on strategic growth opportunities and to improve profitability, management has set ambitious medium-term profit targets. The group has made good progress to date, and we forecast a headline EPS CAGR of 21% from FY23 to FY26e. In our view, this performance is not yet reflected in the current share price.

Allied Electronics | Utilising the balance sheet for growth
Altron's H1'20 results were softer than we had expected as growth projects did not generate EBITDA but consumed working capital. Consequently, cashflows were limited, but net debt to EBITDA of 1.1x was maintained within the target of 1x demonstrating the improved health of the balance sheet. We expect H2'20 to include an unwind of R350m of working capital and project revenue recognition which should improve EBITDA. Altron will probably maintain the higher working capital levels into the futur...

Altron's FY'19 results evidenced the completion of its turnaround strategy. Non-core asset disposal strengthened the balance sheet with net debt to EBITDA improving to 0.7x (FY'16: 4x). We expect future growth from continued sales optimisation followed by targeted business development with bolt-on acquisitions. Management has executed well, with Altron one year ahead of its strategy of doubling its FY'17 EBITDA of ZAR950m in five years, with a FY'19 EBITDA of ZAR1.6bn, increasing 68% over the pa...

Allied Electronics | Back on the front foot
Altron is 18 months into its turnaround strategy and has successfully disposed of eight non-core assets. The latest results show a willingness to re-invest in the key areas of the business, particularly ICT. Encouragingly, normalised HEPS growth increased to 25% y/y in H1'19 from 16% a year earlier. The re-instatement of Altron's dividend (after three years of absence) highlights the progress of the turnaround. Net working capital days has declined 133% since FY'15, while free cash flow has ...
