On May 14th2018, CER published interim results for the six months ended 31stMarch 2018. The group reported 6% growth in adjusted EBITDA to £1.6m, an 11% increase in revenues to £8.4m (including a 15% increase in recurring revenues to £2.5m), and growth in back orders to £15.4m (2017: £14.7m). Net cash at 31 March 2018 more than doubled to £2.5m (2017: £1.1m), and the interim dividend was raised by 7% to 1.5p. CEO Louis Hall said the number and quality of the tender processes CER are currently engaged in “is very encouraging at this point in the year, and will underpin continuing progress towards the Company’s financial goals.” “We look forward to the future with confidence and believe that prospects for long term growth remain very positive.” Separately, on May 30th2018, CER announced that it was part of the winning team that secured the “Outstanding Catalyst Business Impact” Award at TM Forum’s 2018 Catalyst Awards at Digital Transformation World 2018 in Nice, France.
VectorVest previously published a buy note for CER on November 29th2018, Read that note here. At that stage a target price of 177p was set as the stock traded at 130p. Although the stock got close to the price target, it slid back during late April / early May 2018 at which point VectorVest members will have noted a flag on both RT (Relative Timing) and RV (Relative Value) metrics as CER briefly dipped back to 132p. Today the RV metric, (an indicator of long-term price appreciation potential) still rates CER at 1.42 – excellent on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00, while the GRT (Earnings Growth Rate) metric has risen steadily to stand at 26% currently – again rated as excellent by VectorVest. Given the growth in EBITDA and revenues, VectorVest logs a new valuation of 199p for CER, indicating significant upside from today’s 163.5p
A weekly chart of CER over 2 years is shown above. The chart illustrates clearly a breakout of a trading range which is a very positive development for the company. The share is on a BUY recommendation on VectorVest and the technical target from the breakout and the VectorVest valuation are similar.
Summary: The investment opportunity offered by this niche IT stock is arguably stronger than ever, given the excellent ratings across key VectorVest metrics. This of course is backed up by bullish fundamentals that include EBITDA growth, increased net cash and dividends driven by award winning products. These factors, combined with a bullish charting configuration, prompts another VectorVest buy rating for CER.

Ian Pollard – Victrex – Sales Volume Up 1%, Divi Up 160 %
Victrex VCT managed a whopping 160% increase in dividends for the year to the end of September after a mediocre rise of 1% in sales volume led to a rise of 11% in profit before tax. The dividend increase comprised a 15% rise in the regular dividend plus payment of a special dividend of 68p per share. The support for this largess to shareholders is based on strong core growth and a rise of 88% in.cash generation. Pity they could not do more with the sales volume, then they could really have gone to town on those dividend increases.
Dewhurst plc DWHT announces record results for the year to the 30th September. With the help of positive currency movements sales rose by 12.2% and profit before tax by 17.3% including a 0.4m currency benefit. The final dividend is to be increased by 0.5p per share to 8.5p making a total increase for the year of 1p. UK demand is described as being fragile at present with projects being delayed and deferred whilst overseas markets are buoyant.
IG Group Holdings IGG continued to perform well in the second quarter after a strong first quarter and net trading revenue for the first half is expected to be up 9% on a year ago, whilst operating costs are expected to have fallen by 7% following a reduction in advertising and marketing.
Cerillion CER has won one of those significant major contracts which had been so elusive earlier in the year. The contract, with a European telecommunications provider is to start immediately and is worth an initial £5m. and a total of £8.4m over five years.
Wizz Air Holdings WIZZ grew November passenger numbers by 22% and increased load factor by 1.5ppts to 88.3%.

On November 27th 2017, CER published a ‘strong set’ of FY results to September 30th 2017. EBITDA grew by 17.8% to £3.6m, on revenues up 8.3% to £16m. EPS grew to 6.9p from 1.3p previously, with recurring revenues up by 9.6% to £4.4m and a back order book up 40.8% to £13.1m. The proposed final dividend of 2.8p per share, brings the total dividend for the year to 4.2p per share, up 7.7%. CEO Louis Hall said he was “very positive about prospects for Cerillion’s continuing progress, underpinned by a strong pipeline of prospects across EMEA, Asia Pacific and Americas.”
The improvement in earnings growth at CER triggered a flag on this metric in late May 2017, and while this was at the time accompanied by a slide in the share price from 138p to 116p, the GRT (Earnings Growth Rate) metric rose steadily over the period to stand at 36% currently. VectorVest consider this to be an excellent rating – GRT reflects a company’s 1-3 year forecasted earnings growth rate in % per year. Although the RS (Relative Safety) risk rating stands at just 0.84 for CER on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00, the RV (Relative Value) rating, an indicator of long-term price appreciation potential stands at 1.51 – again excellent on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00. Accompanied by a very good rating for RT (Relative Timing), a smart, accurate indicator of a stock’s price trend, VectorVest values CER at 177p per share, against the current 130p.
The chart of CER is shown above in my normal format. Earnings per share (EPS) rose strongly in the middle of 2017 and VectorVest revalued the company upwards. During October the started to move upwards on rising volume and then fell a small amount of very low volume. This is a sign of accumulation of the share. On the 27th November, with the news flow, the share broke strongly upwards on very high volume which bullish sign.
Summary: VectorVest subscribers picking up CER stock on the back of the GRT flag during the summer lows will not only be delighted with the subsequent performance, but will now feel fully justified in continuing to hold the stock after yesterday’s bullish set of results and outlook from the CEO. Strong capital growth, coupled with a steadily appreciating dividend payout puts CER firmly into the compelling investment case category. Buy.

Today brings more evidence of the strength of small, even tiny, British companies which are prospering and growing strongly.
