Interim Results

Good results from this major pawnbroker.

Let me give you a quick recap of the two major differences between this one and H & T (LON:HAT) (where I have a long position).

RFX is associated with Northern England, Scotland and Wales, while HAT's home turf is London.
RFX's business is heavily weighted towards foreign currency exchange (there is a clue in its ticker), while HAT is more focused on the traditional pawnbroking segment.

I like both companies, and I admire RFX's very strong return metrics. If I had been invested in RFX rather than HAT recently, I would have avoided the FCA investigation into HAT's personal loans business.

That said, I have a lot of conviction in the strength of HAT's pawnbroking business, and I look forward to the effect that a rising gold price will have on this. I can't muster the same conviction in RFX's foreign currency service. So HAT is my personal favourite.

Let's take a look at these results.

FX did well, despite less than favourable conditions ("consumer uncertainty created by Brexit and the weakness of sterling has continued to impact the demand for holidays"). 8% more currency was exchanged, and the margin improved so FX income increased by 15% to £8.4 million.

Note that despite the company finishing the period in a net cash position, it says that it did use its credit facility over the summer to hold stocks of foreign currency. I wonder how much foreign currency risk is involved?

Pawnbroking loan book is 14% higher and interest income, net of impairment is 16% higher at £4.3 million. Note that this is little over half the income from FX.
Jewellery retail revenues are up 22%, but the mix of items sold had a lower margin, so gross profits only increased 11% to £2.6 million.
Gold buying profits were up 57%,…

Re Mercia Asset Management (LON:MERC) and placing and acquisition.

I hold this company and had averaged a partial position at approx 27p. It was hard to know how wide discount to value would get so averaging 30p and below was rational IMO. I'd held off from full as was obvious they needed more cash. Fortunately I was able to get a more fulsome position at 25p placing.

In short term raising at a discount is disappointing...but it is the better choice IMO than seeking to exit maturing portfolio investments early. There was a conundrum to solve and the market was only going to allow it at a discount. Combining what looks like a good acquisition with cash for balance sheet investment is sensible and sweetens the bitter pill a little.

Mercia is real venture and growth investing IMO when compared to some other players out there. I have been on the other side of the table seeking investment from VC/PE sorts and I felt Mercia were one of the more sober and least BS-y operators out there. The market is hotter for a name like Draper Esprit (LON:GROW) but I feel they are in hype stocks with much more market and macro risk embedded. Draper own smaller slice of bigger companies that are on a general up escalator (at the moment) of valuations as the venture crowd have lots of cash and are throwing money in to the same hot names together. Some will prove very successful exits at some point but they are generally already so large that IPO rather than acquisition is the more likely exit route. This brings a lot of risk and makes Draper and its companies prone to a negative cycle in future that could squash valuations and push some portfolio companies into distress once easy follow on funding drys up.

Marks for Mercia companies are much more modest and connected to operational progress rather than hope and hype crowd valuations as they tend to be lower profile regional rather than London names and Mercia tends to be a dominate investor and the portfolio companies have lower syndication. Mercia tend to be about 30% owners. Mercia has also closed on investments (written off) or exited at modest to no gain. This shows good discipline in keeping portfolio clean and not burning cash (a cynic might say its as they don't have enough cash) whereas a Draper has never had to do this (as its being lifted by a positive market in life to date post IPO).

But Mercia still needs to prove itself out as an investor and that only happens once exits begin to happen 18+ months from here. That is the risk. The discount to NAV insures against a couple of big investments being wronguns.

I believe Mercia execution to date has been good….its just in the natural down phase of J-curve (assuming eventual model success). So timing of raise bad and unlikely to be generous on pricing even though good fit with NVM and Mercia. Once proven through exits it is reasonable that the business trade on a premium to NAV excluding any value for asset manager. The extent of premium depends on how good the exits are.

2020 interim results are decent but they do not provide persuasion that model is proving out whilst highlighting ‘cash burn’ for balance sheet investment. Ergo did not provide a price fillip for the raise that’s taking place.

IMO pre announcement 31p share price is approx 21% discount to NAV with the asset manager valued at zero (so only valuing balance sheet cash and investments and assuming everything else nets out to zero worth). It’s not unreasonable to give asset manager zero value IMO. It cannot be stripped out to stand alone so SoP doesn’t make that much sense. Its value is in providing income stream to fund the balance sheet investment process which means if balance sheet investment doesn’t prove out then asset manager is irrelevance (there will be a stub value but that wont be high and price action will drown it out too). However, asset manager is even more reason why once balance sheet process proves itself with exits the company should trade to premium.

Adjusting for impact of £30m raised at 25p I estimate that Mercia will trade at 18% discount to NAV again valuing asset manager at zero.

Pre raise my assumption of zero value for asset manager was conservative and post raise it is uber conservative. If post acquisition I give a £20m valuation to the £630m non balance sheet asset management business (3.1% of assets ex balance sheet or 10x £2m net income which is somewhat what deflated by extra costs of balance sheet) then the discount to fair value is 29%. I stick with the view that the value of asset management is much more about allowing more generous valuation of the balance sheet investment portfolio for the future as it means that op costs are not funded through future cash raises or portfolio exits). As mentioned above I think the balance sheet investments are held at relatively conservative valuations for mid stage high growth companies so the j-curve potential in valuation is large with downside well priced.

The company states that it wishes to pay a sustainable dividend from asset manager operating profits. The asset management business has high recurring revenue and looks as if the combined Mercia + NVM will make net income of c.£2m (and that’s with the high costs of supporting the balance sheet capability). Its possible a divi is paid 2+ years from now. There is a disconnect between what drives NAV and the earning for dividend and in the scenario that NAV is successful its unlikely that any meaningful dividend yield can be sustained and that yield will decline in percentage terms relative to NAV. If a dividend is paid then it may justify valuing the asset management piece as an annuity rather than an op co in terms of its contribution to the share price? Again, I’m being very conservative here.

Note, a genuine valuable 'intangible' is the cash sitting in the asset management business that can be deployed into companies. Currently stands at approx £250m (assuming acquisition occurs).

Overall, I'm a fan. But its slow burn value play at moment with the growth kicker to be proven in future. If right I believe I have a long term investment that will compound very well over time.

I really like GYM (LON:GYM) but I've been priced out of this so far, has not really dropped to a 'bargain' valuation. To be fair it does seem they are executing their strategy really well.

Having seen the new Newark gym I am pretty impressed, there is nothing really small about the small-box format; I think it is comparable in size (or bigger) than some of their other gyms but the open-plan format must be a lot cheaper to fit-out as many of the other gyms have to work with legacy building formats.

It does seem slightly surprising to me that none of the upmarket competitors have made much of a response, as they must be losing customers to the low-cost gym segment. They could offer a small-box format at a higher cost, but differentiate away from The Gym by using superior machines.

I can easily see a future where exercise machines are NFC enabled, perhaps knowing who you are as soon as you sit down on it, and thereby giving you data on routines/advice on proper form, perhaps all delivered from a central gym app.

That would be a type of advantage GYM would not copy on accounts of cost.

Mark Tughan

many thanks mojo for your thoughts on Mercia Asset Management (LON:MERC) . "Slow Burn Value Play" is very much what I think and that is very much my style as it happens!

rmillaree

I think there are millions of people who don't understand things like FX and so they are happier to visit a "shop" or similar to buy currency. They probably think its free too with all the "commission free" promo used by most High St vendors.

I have stayed on the sidelines with regard to Ramsdens due to the high fx element of profits - i kind of see this in future as being a slowly declining market which puts me off despite the fact its a very nicely run business.

I would say as a reasonably new user of Revolut - the convenience of transferring funds from pounds to euros in app and theoretically the ability of drawing euros fee free or paying in local currency when abroad with that card means that in future i will be much less likely to take as many euros away - its early days in that regard as Revolut has fairly stingy free withdrawal limits but the convenience (presuming one has some backup cash !!) has to trump that of popping into a shop and queuing and getting less bang for your buck - so i see a slow and steady dwindling away from Ramsdens type in shop transactions to app based diy - linked with overseas cashpoints.

Thanks Mojo - that's an interesting macro comparison between Draper and Mercia. I am looking at both as potential investments as I feel I need a bit more PE exposure, but hadn't got round to looking at the investments made in the two businesses in any great detail as of yet so your precis is both useful and timely, thanks.

I think I was reading in the IC that the number of companies on the stockmarket in both the UK and US is down significantly over the last decade. It seems companies prefer to raise money from sources other than markets that can be fickle and overbearing from a regulation/cost perspective. Hasn't AIM alone lost something like 25% of its listings?

Have to say that trend worries me as it suggests markets will become inherently riskier with the same money chasing less growth, which in turn could lead to wide volatility in stock ranges as investors have less to choose.

Snoo, re Gym (LON:GYM) - I disagree. I think that technology enabled personalised fitness machines are very much a long term development option for GYM if customers want it. In fact, they will be one of the few players with the scale to afford to roll out such a differentiating idea early on - putting further pressure on (higher priced) incumbents.

GYM has deliberately set itself up to include technology in its ways of working, right from the beginning (eg fully online registration/ big data reasonably dynamic pricing by location) and they have also communicated their willingness to spend behind this strategy.

Add to this the new small box concept. If this works, it could substantially add to the number of potentially profitable GYM sites - with some evidence already that clustering / more sites helps GYM to sell their premium LiveIT option, improving their margin and generating a virtuous spiral of expansion, leading to topline growth and further economies of scale.

Free Cash generation is now above the level needed to fund rollout at 15-20 GYyms/yr + replacement CAPEX so a larger business can be safely built.

I am holding - I expect for the next 5 years

I agree with the convenience of Revolut - the wife is a (non-paying customer).
They have definitely solved a problem, but to what extent they have solved this problem by reducing margins remains to be seen (I think).
I have a credit card which is fee free and gives me the interbank exchange rate - unless one has earnings in foreign currency or need for FX deposits, I am not sure how much value a multi currency deposit account has.
Also, I am not sure Revolut is a bank in the traditional sense - as in the current account is not a puttable loan, as per a bank current account, because they don't have deposit taking permission.

For some reason, this has turned into a post about Revolut - wasn't intended that way.

I hold Ramsdens Holdings (LON:RFX) sold a piece on HAT short term loans, but I think that might have been somewhat hasty - solid company that is boring - perhaps not a "moat" but companies with an obvious "moat" are often prohibitively expensive - especially in this market, December notwithstanding.

Personally I think physical presence still matters and there is x-selling opportunity when people come into your store (perhaps pawning an item to have some extra holiday cash) - that was certainly the logic when supermarkets started banking franchises and mobile phones and if I remember correctly bureau de change(s).

When I first bought, RFX was some 20% cheaper that HAT - I imagine that is unwinding somewhat, although RFX does have better return metrics as mentioned by Graham, so perhaps that is justifiable.
Its valuation metrics are certainly far more favourable when compared to the pure play FX providers(listed or otherwise)

And, in the interest of being first - happy santa season everyone!

I heard the MERC webcast.They didn't answer my question which was to ask whether they would now start paying divis given that the vct's they acquired all did.
The points I noted were that;
The deal and the placing means MERC will now be trading on a profitable basis.
The regions offer 1billion a year of potential deals and there is less competition.
The NVM biz acquired for 6.25 EBITDA.
No new overheads except the 9 new staff.
Net income this year 2.6m , expected to be 4m by FY22.
People and the funds acquired are high quality.
MERC will be self financing, " evergreen" is the term they use,by 2022, so no more placings or fundraisings because they now have 250m of free cash.
This deal really accelerates their development.They are well ahead of schedule.
They are confident and have a very scaleable model.They mention scaleable a lot.
Of the 1 billion a year of deals,they did 75m. They expect this to increase substantially because MERC + NVM makes them #1 in their segment of the market.

All sounds good to me.

On Mercia Asset Management (LON:MERC) by people...

Q) Why discount to NAV?

The components of discounts are, in order of impact IMO:
1) Market knew that they would want to raise again and a number of factors meant that the discount got wide
2) Stock overhang from Woodford and to an uncertain extent Invesco. Wind back a few months and the combination made for 50% of register.
3) General free float being tight given that management own c.27% too
4) Although operations have been v good IMO they are still c.2 years away from proof point and exit
5) Proof point is harder than someone like Draper Esprit (LON:GROW) as they tend to be the first major professional investor in companies and do so at both earlier stage and smaller scale business (on average their businesses will not have the scale potential of Draper...but they own more and buy at lower valuation...this brings idiosyncratic risks but less shared, market and macro risks...note, Draper are even vulnerable to other co investor deciding they don't have appetite for more funding and/or need to realise cash irrespective of investment)
6) Business is cash-flow negative pre acquisition. Marginally so and they do cover most of their costs from fund management related fees. Draper much less so and are dependent on cash raises (which has been easier for them and at NAV or greater as they been in hot stuff)

Q: Does 25p (relative to 31p at close Monday) mean that existing shareholders aren't keen to fund?

This is interesting. When a stock isn't hot and its key holders (Woodford and Invesco) ain't keen (and in case of Woodford/Blackrock they didn't participate at all) then that's a bind. Its the reason I only had a partial position built below 30p (av 27p ish). The bullet was going to be bitten....but I'm surprised it went so well really...

When the book opened for offers I put in a big (for me, not compared to institutions) feeling it out offer at 20.5p which would have taken me to a pretty full position. My view was that new investors had Mercia over a barrel and so the pricing would be really aggressive...plus once Mercia opened up its desires to market there was no going back and they had to complete no matter how ugly the pricing. So pitched at what I felt would be right at the bottom of the range....

I got laughed out (politely) by book runner and went back with a more modest offer for number of shares at 25p when it was clear that was the price. The price was supported by a big NED stock holder Ray Chamberlain willing to bid for 4m. Note, he's diluted himself which hints to me that he didn't need to step in for all he felt he might have had to as there was enough demand at 25p.

Altogether, I think 25p is a fairly good achievement and minimises the dilution...NVM adds something valuable too

Q: Too concentrated?

Their aim is to fund the growth j-curve up leg. This inevitably means that holdings should rise in position as they go towards exit. I also see the concentration somewhat mitigated by much more moderate valuation marks as earlier stage and key investor....the exit is where some air should come into the valuation...we await the proof.

Point: Re general market thinning in numbers

This is interesting. I'm not that worried. Too much is private nowadays although perversely some things come to market too immature too after been steriod fed on private money.

Public market investors on AIM are reluctant to dip into their pockets...perversely this should be what AIM is often for...extra capital. Chicken and egg. But AIM money is perhaps too willing to fund the extra sexy narrative stories when it would be better with more conservatism.

I do expect the price to be sticky from here and may even drift down a few pence as there's still an overhang and there's a news gap until the final results and low likelihood of significantly positive investment news as the portfolio cos are not quite at that stage yet.

Announced today after the market closed that the two main directors at Boohoo (LON:BOO) are selling 50 million shares in a placing to institutions:

Not a very happy big holder here, expecting a sizeable drop in the morning..

Boohoo (LON:BOO) ......Not terrible worried that two main directors are selling. Having these huge sum of money tie up in shares are making them nervous . I would be too.
In all successful companies , original founders / directors usually sell down as the business grows , Also they have agree not to sell any further shares for a 18 month period after this successful placing

food for thought , what will boohoo revenue be in five years time. I think it will be a lot high than it market cap at present 3.5 billion

jonthetourist

I have no personal interest in Mercia, but at this weeks Sharesoc meeting the managing partner of Mobeus VCT mentioned in passing that he had hired their investment head this year.

Jon

Thanks Jon

I can't tell you how much of a loss he is or isn't. His name isn't associated with any of the standout investments at Mercia.

Perhaps there was no room to go further upwards for Matt? The team at Mercia is also quite large. I suspect that he gets paid a decent amount more in London for Mobeus.

Interestingly, looking at the Mobeus VCTs they carry very high yields. I've only looked at headline figures on Stocko so my perspective is far from informed but high yields in VCT can be a sign that a VCT business may be struggling to fit the new true venture and growth focused regulations that came into play in last couple of years.

NVM looks a great fit with Mercia as Mercia have a large portfolio and sourcing operation for cos that fit with the new VCT rules. There's a chance that NVM offers a route for Mercia to really scale its AUM and so become more a decent margin asset management business with a direct portfolio attached too rather than a cash consuming portfolio with a small non profitable asset manager attached.

I like the Mercia approach but they still got to prove it out in their balance sheet investments and that is c.18mth plus away. Its quite possible the share price drifts down from here unless they have good news on VCT asset raising (they are targeting £40m but I imagine IFAs might be a little cautious this season due to change) or good operational news come thro on portollio company or co-investment that raises valuation meaningfully.

AnonymousUser192020

fwiw, I've held 4 VCTs for donkeys' years. Special dividends have been quite, often paid out of realisations where the manager says they can find sufficient decent new opportunities. So the headline running yield figure can be misleading as there's a fall in NAV associated with this. That said, in most recent years my total dividends represent a yield of c.12% on current MV. Not brilliant, though it's all tax free.

M&A seems pretty common in that space. 3 out of my 4 VCT holdings have undergone merger, some more than once. Anecdotally, my most successful direct unquoted holding (Want2bthere) was acquired by Livingbridge in 2018. Around that time Livingbridge acquired the long-established Baronsmead VCT business. Livingbridge was then acquired by Gresham just a few months later.

As for NVM, a private company in which I was the only external shareholder achieved its first VCT funding this spring, from NVM. They seem a reasonable investor, bringing expertise and potential contacts to the table. At the time, though, there was strong time pressure to conclude the deal as Northern had a slug of new money from the just-ended 2018-19 'VCT season' that they were very keen to invest. I asked the founder about the Mercia acquisition and he replied "No practical changes, just a bigger fund with more financing options behind the same faces."

So it might appear all a bit dog-eats-dog in that space, but generally there are solid business reasons for the corporate activity.

"But Mercia still needs to prove itself out as an investor and that only happens once exits begin to happen 18+ months from here. That is the risk. The discount to NAV insures against a couple of big investments being wronguns."

Any further thoughts after today's news of the sale of NATIVE ANTIGEN COMPANY for a total cash consideration of up to £18.0million?

Hello turbo

Hopefully, we can keep this quiet and between us so as I don't get gummed to death by the rabid sanctimonious hordes elsewhere in here...

They own c.30% of company so their share of £18m is £5.2m which is close to double carrying value as at last interim. Altogether of the the £5.2m selling price they have enjoyed approx £4.5m gain (ie, its approx £700m cash they've put in). So Native Antigen is a real investment success story, their first eye catching success. They've had 3 prior exits -> 1 write down to zero (Smart Antenna and approx £4m value loss, £3.5 cash invested), 1 exit to breakeven (£10m for Science Warehouse, trade buyer) and one sale for profit (Allinea Software at £2.7m representing a £0.8m gain).

So Native is the first exit to show off. On balance I like the other exits as they took the loss in Smart Antenna and covered costs in Science Warehouse. Keeping things clean and tidy and not funnelling capital to less useful areas.

Looking forward, its hard to know what the covid hit to NAV will be....mid march, mid covid panic Edison suggested 25p for the balance sheet investments. Will that have improved to end of May back toward the 30p+ it was at pre covid. Note that this figure gives zero value to the c.£25-30m of cash they had post NVM transaction (so some has been deployed and will be asset value now), zero value to the fee generating asset management business (some brokers argue it adds 10p to the NAV...I've given my view in previous post) and then there's an extra 0.5p uplift from Native Antigen (which also turns into £5.2m hard cash in balance sheet).

Lots of moving parts so hard to be sure what the value is....but I think considerably north of 20p.

I bought more around its lows so my breakeven is 22p. I bought as disliked and misunderstood and immediate value....however, I never buy just for value and I believe/hope that the business has growth potential both as asset manager and balance sheet investor. I like their approach and I think they are strong in their niche of non South East and EIS and now VCT. Most EIS and VCT firms are as much tax gimmick as investment...whereas I think Mercia are a real investment business.

They've got 10 bigger investments than Native Antigen all the way up to £15m in nDreams (VR gaming business) and £12m in Oxgene (advanced robotics and bioinformatics high volume production business that has tripled sales in last year). One of those two or other big holding will be a real dial mover. Warwick Acoutics is a £9m high end acoustics company (sell personal headsets at £5k a pop...but really its trying to break into the high end car market...the do Aston Martin)...its possibly vulnerable to a covid jolt.

However....DYOR...lots of moving parts a lots a downside risks to some investments

Just for clarity , I realised that on Mercia Asset Management (LON:MERC) I laid out valuation wrong....25p NAV is mid covid estimate of investments +CASH (I said ex above erroneously). Then you can add the asset management business on top which will have approx £25m book value (although deferred contingent payment liability too) and I think some past broker notes have give 10p of valuation worth to (so premium above book and based on an AUM multiple I think but check that). I down weight the value of asset manager....effectively zeroing it but of course its worth more than that.

Results later this month are very valuation uplifts net out relative to covid damage...how far does it get back to 30p+ range and then the operating performance and expectation of the asset manager (v successful VCT season raising full £40m target and they also got a big mandate from British Business Bank too).

Night night

I hope you lot are all playing nicely with Jack and not being too rabid...anyhoo, I'm ignoring that nonsense for the moment but will take a look later to see where you all got to....on to some banalysis....

Back on Mercia Asset Management (LON:MERC) ...

Edison released a note today. I'd say its a bit of a curious thing...but remember that it paid for by management so they want it out there - https://www.edisongroup.com/publication/successful-exit-of-the-native-antigen-company/27259

A friend emailed me to say did i think the note inferred a 'beat'. The curious thing about it is it kind of infers a negative surprise of c. 4%...the price move today on the note coincidentally. But dig a little deeper and I think it implies a NAV 'beat' of over 5p on the Edison note....so 35p ish per share. There's many moving parts and I fear I have made a logic error....but a NAV at approx 35p if reported on Tuesday will give the shares quite a good kick up. DYOR obvs!

Email response:

I think they are saying that 0.69 of NAV inc the carry value of funds business (ie asset value in balance sheet which is mainly goodwill)…but that there is upside to the valuation as asset mgt becomes net cash flow positive

They raised £30m gross in Dec (so something less net implicitly the cost was £2.6m so £27.4m net). That is added to the 30/9/19 asset value of £128.4m….£155.8m.

Edison say £89m market cap is 0.69x nav. That suggests that NAV is £129m….which means that it’s reduced by £26.8m over H2 2020.

£26.8m off of an investment portfolio of £102m (ie take off change and book value of asset mgt businesses net of deferred liabilities) and that means there has been a 26% fall in the value of portfolio. I’ve taken it all off the investment portfolio as obvs cash is just cash and not written down….and carried BV of old Mercia asset manager is highly unlikely to be impaired, there is a chance that new acquisition NVM could be impaired due to 22% reported fall in value of VCT portfolios (but not a great deal).

Their late March Covid update said NVM VCT portfolios had seen a 22% reduction in asset value as result of covid.

So taking the Edison update as the true number would suggest its a downgrade of prior estimates. That would rather neatly explain a 4% fall in price today on the news.

I suspect the way to read Edison note is that the net asset value is at least £128.4m (ie Mercia can’t tell them but they’ve had a chat and that is the floor).

But assuming Edison numbers are straight correct then before new cash commitments (so cash turns 1:1 into assets) the old 30/9/19 investment portfolio at £75.2m was at 20.25p and £89m mkt cap is 85% of market cap with cash and BV of asset manager a combined £26.8m…right?…

Well at 20 March the company report have £30.4m of unrestricted cash. So that would mean a negative BV for asset management of £3.6m. As at 30/9/19 the BV of pre NVM deal asset manager was c.£9m and then with the acquisition of NVM there is initial value of £16.6m (there is a potential £8.4m further payment for acquisition of NVM but that will have an offsetting balance sheet liability against that too so net out)

So that’s £25m of BV upside based on what I can make of revealed numbers which translates into approx 5.5p of NAV per share upside to what Edison say….so on that basis there is a “beat"

The numbers above surprise me so I wonder if I’ve got my logic wrong somewhere.

mojo out

For clarity 'change' should be 'cash':

"£26.8m off of an investment portfolio of £102m (ie take off CASH and book value of asset mgt businesses net of deferred liabilities)..."
