External View: None

Our View

Cadbury is a SELL in Nairametrics’ opinion. Not only is the stock trading at over two times the average PE ratio on the NSE, but H1 2018 results are also poor and may be an indication of poor full-year results.

The poor fundamentals, in the last few years, have led to most analysts removing it from their coverage.

Latest Results

Results for the half year ended June 2018 show that revenue dropped from N2.7 billion in 2017 to N2.5 billion in 2018. However, profit before tax jumped from N197 million in 2017 to N631 million in 2018.

Price Information

Current Share Price: N6.00
Price to Earnings Ratio: 3.35X
Year to Date Return: 0.84%
One Year Return: -16.80%

External View: None

Our View

Newrest ASL is a HOLD in Nairametrics’ opinion. The stock is trading at a year high of N6.00. Investors would be better off waiting for a decline before taking a position.
