Smallcap Sweep. 25-Oct-18
Butcher attacks DEB estate.

Debenhams (DEB) FY figs as guided in Sept. As leaked to press, will close up to 50 stores, no div. "Above-market digital growth of 12%." Above market? Seems pedestrian for online. Next is up 15.5% for example. Lots of cost savings, brave face. No current trading. "Our transformation strategy is gaining traction." Has included risk of suppliers losing more credit insurance in going concern stress tests. No mention of selling Magasin Du Nord to cut debt, now at £321m net. up £45m. CEO aptly called Butcher.
Centaur Media (CAU) guides FY adjusted operating profit up 18%, below market expectations. "Centaur has received approaches for a number of its assets...Board believes this value is not reflected in Centaur's current share price." The dimwits issued 2 RNSs, the 2nd having the addendum missing in the first.
Cohort (CHRT) selected as preferred bidder for an eight-year contract from 2019, valued at over £50m. Contract subject to final negotiation and MOD approval.
Zinc Media (ZIN) wins $6m in TV comissions, most in current FY.

Debenhams through its subsidiaries is engaged in the sale of fashion clothing and accessories, beauty and gifting products and products for use in the home.
CAU: Price=38.5. Cap=57m. F/C for current FY*: EPS= NA, Prospective PE= NA, Revenue=NA.
