JD Sports Fashion - Set to take on America

Few retailers can boast the enviable track record of JD Sports, the ambitious multi-channel ‘athleisure’ business with a fashion-forward offering that combines the major sportswear brands with established own-label ranges. The company’s expanding international footprint is about to be enhanced by a potentially game-changing recently announced US acquisition, which has yet to be reflected in the consensus forecasts.

Good sports

JD’s P/E ratio appears reasonable relative to those of other UK retailers of young fashion with international ambitions. However, it is almost twice the level of rival Sports Direct’s (SPD). While there are justifications for a healthy premium, it is likely to act as a brake on the valuation, as will the low dividend yield.

Continued strong trading drives 3.8% FY’16 upgrade

Continued strong trading so far in H2 has led JD to upgrade its full year PBT guidance to c£135m, leading us to upgrade our forecasts by 3.8% from £130m (cons £125m). JD’s prospects look favourable given the ongoing trend towards athletic apparel and footwear, suggesting there may yet be further upside risk to forecasts. However, limited disclosure at a time when divisional and geographic complexity is on the increase makes this difficult to be certain of. With the stock trading on a cal’16 P/E

Strong H1 growth highlights gains via organic and market growth trends

JD has delivered an excellent first half result, ahead of our forecast – although, it should be noted that in the absence of any performance details having been released in H1, forecast visibility was low. The beat against our estimate stemmed from the core Sports fascias. The combination of operational initiatives and positive end market trends suggests to us that forecast risk could still be to the upside there. Outdoor is still loss making and continues to carry surplus A/W14 stock, but chang

Upgrades as favourable fashion trends continue

JD has delivered a strong H1 performance, led by the core Sports fascias where we estimate LFL growth to have continued at the rate seen in H2 (i.e. +12%). This is an important achievement signifying strong growth on growth, and confirms that the favourable trend in athletic footwear and apparel is continuing. We have upgraded FY’16 PBT by 13.6% as a result. It is hard to know if this 2-year run rate can be sustained over the seasonal peak, when densities are higher, but if it can then further u

New flagship in Oxford Street well worth the capital investment

Although Oxford Street capex will be >10% of JD’s £70m FY budget the use of funds is not excessive. With international aspirations JD needed to raise its profile in London to attract attention from brands and future partners. So whilst securing the lease came at a significant cost, the flagship is a key stepping stone for future development. On the £3m fit-out it should generate a direct return - the store could break-even in Jan’16 and over time could make £1-2m EBIT. The site visit serves as a

Each way bet

The FTCs decision to challenge Synergy’s merger with Steris has precipitated a sharp fall in the share price to a level we think looks compelling whether Synergy remains independent or not. If the merger completes, then a quick 20%+ return is possible. If not, then we expect Synergy to be more explicit in its growth ambitions, which in turn should lead to forecast upgrades. We therefore move the stock back onto the Buy list.

Recovery continues despite industry headwinds

Zytronic’s interims confirm a continuing improvement in demand, driven by the Gaming and Vending sectors. This has driven a 24% increase in H1 revenue and a profitable outturn (PBT of £0.4m), on track for our full year forecast (SCMe: £1.0m) despite ongoing and well publicised supply chain challenges. Longer term recovery potential remains substantial and the Group is in excellent financial shape (net cash £7.5m post recent share buy-back programme).

Encouraging H1 figures, but we don't bet too much on the mid-term strategy

Today’s AGM update highlights a satisfactory start to the year. Against a worsening consumer backdrop and further supply chain disruption sales are up 2% and gross margin has nudged up. This reflects favourably on management and the strategy reset.
