But na true now.

Lesson number 1, NOBODY can time the market!

Lesson Number 2, LEARN to control your emotions.

Really, nothing has changed so not sure why the reason for the panic.

If you have CASH, get ready to make money.

If you have good stocks, enjoy the bumpy ride.

If you have stocks like Onwuka Hi-Tek, just convert them to a souvenir smiley
Sir,
Everything has changed.
- Some are now more loyal to their employers than they were in February.... grin
- We now have a new set of BEARISH GURUS who timed the market.
- Some now hate holidays and are wondering why this country has too many of them ( I know you grab my drift)... grin
- Some now pick offences at little wrongs at home and their spouses have to repeat the same message thrice, yet they can't still repeat what was said.... grin
- I was even trading today after the market closed, only to be woken up by my kids.... grin
- In have kept checking my account, just checked again, since market closed to be sure I did not log into a wrong account, as the losses refuse to blink... grin

With Japanese candlesticks turning to Nigerian broomsticks, I wish to seek genuine fundamental answers for fairprice of some equities so that I can pick them after another Hiroshima outage.
I have to prepare for the loading opportunities.
Which stocks do we feel are abysmally and unduly punished and may still surprise the market?

1. Sugar.
2. Nascon.
3. UBA.
4. Dangcem
5. CAVERTON
7. FMN.
8. ZENITH
9. FIDELITY.
10. UCAP

12. GTB.

MSCI ADDITION FOR 23 MAY 2018/GENERAL MARKET COMMENT

Fund’s portfolio decrease, selling continued. The market is still down, even if the price starts going up, more buyers still need to come to the market.

This week has been bad for my portfolio. Next week must not be like this. I am seriously considering a strategy that will ensure that I exit the market before a bear like this comes to the market again.

Using the fund’s portfolio as a guide, “green” mean buying while “red” is selling.

Caution: This is for information purpose only. Data used are assumed to be correct. However, you may want to verify the data from an appropriate source.
Hope MSCI is not remotely indicted..... grin

for the caverton hopefuls:
cc: onegentleguy

If you are told to draw up a list of the top 5 performing stocks in Nigeria this year, my bet is that Caverton will be high up on that list. In fact, asides from CCNN, Caverton has posted the best return year to date this year, boasting of a 100% capital appreciation. Move your start point to a year ago, then the returns are even better at a whopping 187% capital appreciation.

Things haven’t always been this good for Caverton. Four years ago this week, Caverton listed on the Nigerian stock exchange at a share price of N9.5. However, by the close of trading time on that fateful Tuesday the 20th of May, 2014, the share price had plummeted by a whopping 18% to close at N7.76. I remember calling this a baptism of fire for a stock that had so many prospects.

The stock was to face its lowest point two years ago after the company reported profits of N604 million, a 5-year low at the time. The fact that the market was in the midst of one of the greatest economic induced sell-off in history worsened matters. Its share price also nosedived, dropping to as low as 69 kobo per share in January 2017. This would be the lowest share price for Caverton’s 4-year history on the Nigerian Stock Exchange.

Rise to the top

In 2017, Caverton reported a profit after tax of N2.5 billion, a 330% increase year on year. Caverton’s rise to the very top started in the second half of 2017 after its half-year pre-tax profits came in at N938 million, compared to a loss before tax of N2.3 billion a year earlier. By the third quarter, it had improved to N1.89 billion and investors started to take notice.

Investors’ appetites widened, helping the share price rise from N0.92 to about N1.68 by October 2018. By the end of December, the share price had dropped to about N1.29, only to rise to a year high of N3 in February 2018. Investors had helped the stock to one of its best rallies as they awaited an impressive 2017 result.

Fundamentals

Caverton did not disappoint as it reported a profit after tax of N2.5 billion, a 330% increase year on year. The company’s top line revenue also rose 6.4% to close at N20.4 billion. Profit margin was also 12.6%, compared to 3.1% a year earlier and return on average equity hit 18%, compared to a 3-year average of 9.6%. The company also rewarded shareholders with a dividend per share of 15 kobo after going through 2016 without one.

How it makes money

The company makes money by providing helicopter and marine services to operators in the Oil and Gas industry and other sundry customers. Last year alone, it reported revenues of N20 billion from providing helicopter services to Oil and Gas Companies, about 98% of revenues. Caverton also earns most of its revenues in forex. By most standards, 2017 would seem a fabulous year for Caverton, until you look deeper.

Magic 2017

For Caverton, 2017 was a particularly great year for three major reasons. Firstly, it earned a net foreign exchange gain of N960 million, compared to a N2.2 billion loss a year earlier. Secondly, it also wrote back an accrued interest of N375 million and then finally, it earned a profit on disposal on PPE of N442 million. These combined earnings helped Caverton to have what was a magic 2017.

Take away these earnings, then you realise that Caverton still faces the same problems it had in 2016, if not worse. For example, gross profit margins were lower in 2017 compared to 2016, while operating expenses, as a percentage of gross profit, rose to 55% from 42% (in 2016). Revenues are still not at the 2014 levels of 25 billion when oil prices were at all-time highs.

Caverton’s moat as perhaps the dominant service provider of helicopters to upstream Oil and Gas companies is ironically its biggest challenge. If oil price heads south again, Caverton will be back to a well too familiar past. It once planned to extend its services to the Nigerian Airforce but dwindling government revenue has killed that idea.

Silver Lining

This analysis is not aimed at pouring cold water on Caverton’s results. Rather, it is to clearly outline the profit drivers for the company and highlight one-time events that can often mask inherent challenges in seemingly blistering results.


Caverton’s 2018 first quarter results is perhaps a better reflection of where things stand for the company. Pre-tax profits are up 34% despite a 10% revenue drop. They also explained that the reason for the drop in revenues was because they had not renewed their contracts in the first quarter of the year. Nairametrics reported recently that Caverton had signed the contract with Chevron/NNPC JV which commenced operations on April 1st, 2018.

The company achieved this by having a 20.6% drop in the cost of sales. The company disclosed that it recorded a major drop in aircraft rentals, aviation parts, and fuel, as well as cut in aircrew salaries. If it keeps the cost as low as it did in the first quarter of 2018, then we expect Caverton to sustain double-digit earnings per share growth.

Other risks

Caverton carries external debts of about N16.3 billion, out of which $10 million is to Access Bank, $17.9 million to BOI/Access Bank and $2.5 million to Heritage Bank. With a debt to equity ratio of over 100%, it is likely that Caverton will raise equity sometime this year.
If it does so, then expect earnings per share at the end of the year to fall perhaps lower than it did in 2017. This, of course, can be mitigated by the fact that its price to earnings ratio is still as low at 3x, despite its much acclaimed 187% capital appreciation in one year.

Buy sell or hold[b][/b]

Caverton is a mixed bag of upsides and downsides and it’s difficult to decide if this is a stock to buy, sell or hold. Several headwinds lie ahead for this company and the risk of a future capital raise is difficult to ignore. However, even if it were to raise N10 billion in this market at a price of N3 per share, it will nearly have to double its outstanding shares.

Thus, I believe that the company will focus on creating the right sentiments and momentum that could drive the share price to around N5 before it decides to raise equity. Based on this, my sentiments swing towards a buy for this stock. With fundamentals assured to improve on the back of its ability to renew juicy contracts, Caverton will grow its profits and win investor sentiments.
