Vermilion Compass: Weekly Equity Strategy

Upgrading Communications, Downgrading Staples In our January 10th Compass, we discussed that a break above 3910 on the S&P 500 would signal a tradable rally, with 4100-4165 our target, which is the top-end of our expected 2023 trading range. We believe equities are still in the midst of a rally/short squeeze, but that the rally is likely to fizzle in the 4100-4165 area. Upgrading Communications to Market Weight. We have been underweight Communications (XLC, EWCO) since November of 2021, a peri...

Investors in RELX Spook, but We See 1H As Robust

Investors banking on narrow-moat RELX’s dependable organic revenue growth model, which has been increasing at a 4% clip for the last three years, may be alarmed to see the number fall to 3% in the first half of the year. With no obvious operational issues highlighted in the announcement, we believe it is a bit early to panic, and as a result do not plan to make any material changes to our forecasts at this point. We reiterate our GBX 1,510 fair value estimate. We believe the market is currentl...

Morningstar | Slow and Steady Wins the Race for RELX in 1Q

Morningstar | RELX Company Report

Over the past decade, RELX has undergone wholesale changes to the structure of the company, taking its exposure to electronic-format businesses from 35% to more than double this figure. This change was achieved primarily through a series of targeted acquisitions and disposals, such as that of data aggregator ChoicePoint in early 2008, which subsequently burdened the company with significant debt-service costs. Despite these challenges, the company has managed to significantly drive operating mar...

RELX Company Report

Narrow-moat RELX published a solid set of full-year results, with organic growth continuing apace at 4%, as currency headwinds pinned back headline growth to 2%. While revenue and operating profit were bang in line with our and the Street’s expectations, a lower-than-expected tax expense for 2018 led to a slight beat on our net income number. We do not expect to make any material changes to our long-term forecasts on the back of these results, nor to our GBX 1,510 fair value estimate. Given th...

RELX (RELLN) announced the acquisition of ThreatMetrix for £580m in cash this morning. The US based company will become part of RELX's Risk & Business Analytics division. The acquisition is expected to close in 1H18 and is subject to customary regulatory approvals and is not expected to have a material impact on RELX's 2018 earnings. We view this transaction as neutral to spreads as we believe it can be executed within the company's financial policy.
