Trading has improved through the course of H221, with order intake for the four months to the end of January up 10% y-o-y on an organic basis and average monthly sales up 4% compared to H121. As discoverIE expects to report underlying EPS at the upper end of consensus forecasts, we have raised our FY21 forecasts, driving a 4% EPS upgrade.

Improved trading H2 to date

For the first four months of H221, discoverIE saw trading continue to strengthen, with underlying earnings expected towards the upper end of market expectations. Over this period, average monthly sales increased 4% compared to H121. On an organic basis, Design & Manufacturing sales were 3% lower y-o-y, while Custom Supply sales were 10% lower y-o-y, with group sales down 5% y-o-y. Year to date, group orders and sales are down 5% at constant exchange rates (CER) and down 4% on a reported basis. Phoenix America (acquired in October 2020) is performing well and in line with expectations, and the company expects to close the Limitor acquisition later this month. Gearing at the end of January stood at 1.1x and, once the Limitor acquisition is taken into account, rises to 1.35x. This is below the target range of 1.5–2.0x, providing good funding headroom for acquisitions.

Order intake returns to growth

Order intake has strengthened over the period, with orders up 10% y-o-y on an organic basis and a book-to-bill of 1.17:1. The group order book of £162m is 2% higher y-o-y CER and up 14% compared to the end of H121. To reflect stronger trading, we have raised our FY21 forecasts, resulting in an increase in underlying diluted EPS of 4%.

Valuation: Discount to peers reducing

The stock is trading at a c 13% discount to its peer group on an FY21e P/E basis, down from 18% when we last wrote. Aside from the continuing recovery in customer demand, we view the key trigger for earnings and share price upside to be progress in increasing the weighting of the business towards the higher-growth, higher-margin D&M business, which in turn should move the company closer to its 12.5% medium-term operating margin target. The stock is supported by a dividend yield approaching 2%.
