Intersting Comments from the MF 'Valuation In Hill & Smith, we appear to have a company that has been reshaping its business by cutting the deadwood and focussing on lines, and markets, with more attractive margins. In fact, return on capital employed has been running at a healthy-looking 25% or so for several years. It has been steadily building its overseas revenues and these now constitute the majority of its turnover. In general, the company seems poised for further growth in the medium-term. If the valuation is attractive, perhaps short-term headwinds are providing investors with a buying opportunity now. The share price is 268p as I write, valuing the company at around Â£206m, and putting it on a price to book value of about 1.4. At this level, the shares are on an almost three times covered forward yield of 5.2% and a forward price to earnings ratio of about seven for 2012, according to analyst's estimates. All of this compares well with some of its industrial engineering peers, like Bodycote (LSE: BOY) yielding 4.3% and on a P/E of 8 for 2012, Castings (LSE: CGS) yielding 3.8% on a multiple of 11, and Fenner (LSE: FENR) with its 2.9% yield and forward P/E multiple of 11. Bottom line To me, Hill and Smith looks like a good business with a strategy for international growth. It appears to have been making well-targeted acquisitions to help it focus on higher margin business areas. Trading is tough just about everywhere right now, but that may be just the time to pick up the shares cheap. They are, at the very least, worthy of further research.'

Hardly new highs, Polly. As a long term holder I can recall they drove through 400p about 3 years ago. More View thread 2 Respond Login to Vote up New enhanced Spread Betting platform. Find out more.
