The Group’s services have a specific focus on children who present high severity needs with challenging behaviours and complex care requirements.

On January 30th 2018, CMBN published a trading update, for the year ending December 31st 2017. Underlying trading for the year was in line with Board expectations, while net cash at year-end was approximately £82m ahead of Board expectations. As a result CMBN declared a further special dividend of 8.2 pence per share, equating to a further £15m return of capital to shareholders following the £50m return of capital completed in Sept 2017. CEO Saleem Asaria commented; “After a period of significant change at Cambian we are pleased to have the opportunity to outline the medium and long-term value creation opportunities that our business presents to our investors. Cambian has the potential to add capacity and create growth in the coming years and in so doing build a platform across the UK that offers the highest standards of integrated care to our children. We believe we can achieve life-changing results for the children who are entrusted to us and at the same time continue to create value for our investors.”

The solid earnings growth and strong cash position had been identified by VectorVest stock analysis metrics as far back as November 2017 when the share was revalued upwards. At present the stock continues to score highly across all key VectorVest metrics. The GRT (Earnings Growth Rate) metric logs a forecasted GRT of 27%, which VectorVest considers to be excellent. Added to this, CMBN scores an excellent RT (Relative Timing) rating of 1.43, (scale of 0.00 to 2.00). VectorVest now values CMBN at 239p, marking the stock out as undervalued at the current 198p. However the safety of the Earnings as measured by the VectorVest metric RS is low which means the opportunity in Cambian is only suitable for those investors who can manage risk and understand position sizing techniques.

The chart of CMBN is shown above where the green line study plots the VectorVest valuation of the share which has risen strongly over the past 6 months. Technically the share has broken upwards from an inverted “head and shoulders” pattern which is a bullish sign. The technical target from the reversal “head and shoulders” pattern is similar to the VectorVest valuation.

Summary: An investment into CMBN also provides investors with an opportunity to invest into children’s specialist education and behavioural health – a worthwhile endeavour by any standards. Added to this, the CMBN board demonstrate prudent financial management, which in the words of the CEO offer “medium and long-term value creation opportunities. As such, VectorVest believes the commercial backdrop offers investors considerable investment potential. Buy.
