VectorVest – What is Value Momentum Investing and How to Apply It?
On this week’s Core Finance interview, I discuss the topic of Value Momentum Investing, which has three legs. It is the fundamental position of a share, value and safety. It is the technical position of a share and it is the technical position of the overall market. This pushes up the probability of making good decisions.

Buy iEnergizer #IBPO says VectorVest. The stock still has legs despite recent rise and stellar interim numbers
AIM listed iEnergizer Ltd, (IBPO.L) is a global provider of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO). Leading companies in the Healthcare, BFSI, Gaming, Publishing and Legal industries successfully outsource mission-critical business processes to the Company. With over 12,000 staff, IBPO builds and operates customized customer contact, back office and high-volume transaction processing centres serving the entire customer lifecycle, from outbound first contact to post-sales support and everything in-between.
On November 13th2018, IBPO reported a strong set of interim results, with a 9.5% increase in service revenues to $82.4m, EBITDA up 39.1% to $24.3m and an increase in EBITDA margin to 29.1% (H1 2018: 23.0%). Profit before tax increased to $21.0m from $12.1m previously, while net debt fell to $18.5m (31 March 2018: $26.4m). Chairman Marc Vassanelli said the performance “reflects the significant progress being made by colleagues across the Company, as we continue to focus on recurring revenue streams, as well as effectively offsetting pressure in the traditional publishing sector by capitalizing on our advantageous position to service existing and new customers’ needs in the evolving digital technology landscape“… adding.. “The Company’s healthy cash position, together with its cash generative business model, puts iEnergizer in a strong position to invest in both organic and inorganic growth opportunities in the periods ahead. We expect sustained business performance through the second half of the year and the Board looks forward to the remainder of the year with confidence.”
The VectorVest stock analysis and portfolio management platform flagged up the IBPO investment opportunity to members in August 2018. Although the stock has literally doubled in price since then, it still logs an excellent Relative Timing (RT) (stock price trend) rating of 1.48, (scale of 0.00 to 2.00) and a very good forecasted GRT (Earnings Growth Rate) of 16.00%. Less adventurous investors may be discouraged by the RS (Relative Safety) rating of 0.92, (again on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00), but trading at 120p, IBPO is still clearly undervalued against a current VectorVest valuation of 140.27p per share.
The chart of IBPO is shown above using weekly candlesticks over the past 3 years. The share is trending upwards strongly and is on a BUY recommendation on VectorVest. Earnings per Share (EPS) has risen strongly over the past two months while EPS has increased by 3 times over the 3-year period shown.
Summary: VectorVest members who bought into IBPO after the platform flagged up a clear valuation gap in August will have doubled the value of their holdings in the space of just a few months. Normally a period of consolidation occurs after such a rise, but IBPO still appears to have legs, thanks to a stellar set of interim numbers, strong cash position and bullish view for the second half of the financial year. The low RS reading may serve to discourage some investors, but the results, outlook and charting position all point to further near term growth. Buy.

Buy Griffin Mining #GFM says VectorVest. Recent price action, technical picture and fundamental outlook point to attractive upside opportunity.
Griffin Mining Limited (GFM.L) is a mining and investment company, incorporated in Bermuda and listed on the London AIM market. The major asset of the Company is an 88.8% interest in Hebei Hua Ao Mining Industry Company Limited, the holder of 6.0 square kilometres of mining and exploration licences and the mine and processing facilities at Caijiaying in the People’s Republic of China. The Company also holds 90% of Hebei Sino Anglo Mining Industry Company Limited, which controls 15.7 square kilometres of exploration licences immediately surrounding the Caijiaying Mine. The Company continues to aggressively explore, expand and develop the Caijiaying mine, whilst also investigating further potential acquisitions of mining projects that are capable of being brought into production and to meet historically preset, economic returns to shareholders.

On August 7th 2018, GFM published half-year results for the period to June 30th 2018. The Company reported PBT of $21.3m on revenues of $54.1m and basic EPS of 8.95 cents (2017: 8.85 cents). The period in question saw a 21% fall in the zinc price, although this only marginally impacted profitability, while higher grade gold areas resulted in record gold in concentrate production. Operations at Caijiaying were maintained with minimal disruption throughout the first half of 2018. During the period, 448,530 tonnes of ore were processed to produce 16,873 tonnes of zinc, 459 tonnes of lead, 132,689 ounces of silver and 9,492 ounces of gold. Cost of sales of $23,336,000 in the first six months of 2018 was up on that incurred in 2017 of $20,820,000. This in the main reflects additional costs incurred extracting ore from greater depth and backfilling waste material and tailings to minimise surface storage of tailings. With cash flows from operations now directed towards the development of the Zone II area at Caijiaying and in line with previous years’ practice of determining annual dividends at the time of the Company’s full year results, no interim dividend has been declared by the Board of Griffin. Chairman Mladen Ninkov said it was a“wonderful result in light of the 21% fall in the zinc price since the beginning of the year.”He added that H2 “will remain challenging if commodity prices remain subdued. However, the recent signing of the Contract of Transfer and the progress towards the issue of the new Mining Licence over Zone II, sets the stage for an exciting 2019.”
On numerous occasions in the past, VectorVest has flagged up the GFM investment opportunity to members. A strong run earlier in the year despite the weak zinc price was followed by a retracement in the stock through the summer months, followed by the beginnings of a recovery in September. Now trading at 111p, the stock logs an excellent RV (Relative Value) rating of 1.44 (scale of 0.00-2.00), but uncertainties over China and the trading environment weighs across the RS (Relative Safety) metric, where GFM scores a fair rating of 0.92 (scale of 0.00 to 2.00). Despite this, GFM logs a very good Relative Timing (RT) (stock price trend) rating of 1.30, (again on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00) and an excellent forecasted GRT (Earnings Growth Rate) of 29.00%. VectorVest believes the stock is well worth considering at current levels against a current valuation of 159p per share.
A weekly chart of GFM.L is shown above over a period of 3 years. After an outstanding run from around 60p to 160p (which most VectorVest subscribers banked) the share has pulled back to the long-term support as defined by the inclined simple trend line of the chart. The pullback occurred in a three-wave pattern which technical analysts consider to be a correction rather than a change in the longer-term trend. From the low on 24thSeptember at support the share has been strongly accumulated and is now on a BUY recommendation on VectorVest. A break and close above 118p would confirm a rising bottom which is a very positive sign.
Summary: A long standing favourite of VectorVest (and myself), GFM provides a reasonably predictable platform, which, if the timing is correct can yield decent returns. We believe such an opportunity exists now given the recent price action, technical picture and fundamental outlook as stated by the Chairman. Investors uncomfortable with mining operations in China may want to look elsewhere, but our view remains that the stock currently offers an attractive amount of upside even with softer commodity prices and a strong US$.

Four mistakes preventing consistent market gains – VectorVest

Buy Gulf Keystone Petroleum #GKP says VectorVest. The stock value has doubled since their last note in March and continues to offer a decent investment proposition to investors with an appetite for risk.
Gulf Keystone Petroleum (GKP.L) is a leading independent operator and producer in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq and the operator of the Shaikan field with current production capacity of 40,000 barrels of oil per day. The Kurdistan Region of Iraq segment consists of the Shaikan, Ber Bahr blocks and the Erbil office, which provides support to the operations in Kurdistan. The UK segment provides geological, geophysical, engineering and corporate services to the Company.

On Sept 10th 2018, GKP announced its results for the half-year ended 30 June 2018. The Company said operations in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq remained safe and secure throughout H1 2018 with plant uptime at Production Facility 1 and Facility 2 of over 99% during H1 2018. The Shaikan field achieved gross average production of 31,861 bopd for H1 2018 and 31,399 bopd for July and August. Full year guidance remains unchanged at 27,000-32,000 bopd. As a result, GKP announced a record profit after tax of $26.7m (H1 2017: profit after tax of $0.7m). Continued disciplined cost control with underlying cash operating costs remain stable at $14.1m, and GKP has continued to receive regular oil sales payments since 1 Sept 2015, with cash receipts of $107m net to GKP during the half year and $147m net during the eight months to 31 Aug 2018. Net cash generated in operating activities doubled to $61.2m (H1 2017: $30.1m), and GKP recorded a cash balance of $219m at 30 June 2018 and $240m at 7 Sept 2018 against $100m debt principal following debt refinancing in July 2018. With construction work underway, GKP remains on track to increase production at Shaikan to 55,000 bopd in the second half of 2019.
In March 2018, taking into account the comparatively uncertain geopolitical picture and GKP’s region of operations, a series of positive VectorVest metric indicators were logged and highlighted, along with a buy note. The stock then traded at 130p, went on to hit and pass our then target of 179p, topping out at over 300p during summer 2018. Now trading at 250p, the stock logs an excellent RV (Relative Value) rating of 1.54 (scale of 0.00-2.00), but the uncertain geopolitical picture previously mentioned continues to weigh across the RS (Relative Safety) metric, where GKP scores a fair rating of 1.04 (scale of 0.00 to 2.00), and a poor Relative Timing (RT) (stock price trend) metric of 0.84, (again on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00). Despite this, trading at 250p, brave investors might still want to consider the stock as it is still considerably undervalued against a current VectorVest valuation of 412p per share.
The chart of GKP.L is shown above over the past year using daily candles. The green line study above the price is the VectorVest valuation while the blue line study in the window below the price is earnings per share (EPS). The latter is rising strongly. The share has sold off in recent days with the overall market and traders should wait until the share prints a VectorVest Buy signal before entering or adding to a position. Alternatively, traders should wait and buy a breakout of the 52 week high.
Summary: Most investors will have heard of Gulf Keystone Petroleum (GKP) because of some huge historical share price movements and a somewhat chequered history. We outlined the volatile and comparatively risky nature of GKP shares in our March note this year, but those that did take advantage will have seen their investment double in value since that time. The same conditions exist today, although production at Shaikan is increasing, and the company’s financial position has been transformed. VectorVest reiterates the point made in March: as a trading and investing instrument, GKP currently offers a decent proposition, while the excellent RV rating warrants a speculative buy rating for investors with an appetite for risk upon a breakout of the last high made on the last week of August 2018.

On September 20th 2018, SSY published interim results for the half year to 30 June 2018. In what Chairman Mike Love described as a “continued solid operational performance”, SSY secured key contract renewals and the Space division won a contract with Airbus to develop the global navigational EGNOS V3 ground segment. Half-year revenues grew 13% to £28.7m, with adjusted operating profit up to £2.5m (2017: £1.2m restated). During the period, net debt reduced to £3.3m (2017: net debt £9.0m), and with a half-year order book approaching £100m (2017: £64m) the board raised the dividend by 10% to 0.65p. Mike Love added that cash flow was healthy and the balance sheet was increasingly strong. “We expect our financial results to be more evenly spread over the year. The board also expects, based on current performance, to deliver further year-on-year growth for 2018.”
VectorVest identified SSY as an investment opportunity a year ago, and we published an article on November 15th, citing the growth story and positive reading across a range of indicators. Read that article here (http://www.branduk.net/buy-scisys-ssy-says-vectorvest-key-metrics-indicate-the-time-is-right-to-buy-into-this-growth-company/). The stock went on to hit and pass our then price target of 162p, but despite this outperformance, a host of positive readings continue to support an ongoing growth scenario for SSY today. The RV (Relative Value) metric, (an indicator of long-term price appreciation potential) logs SSY as excellent at 1.51 (on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00), along with an excellent GRT (Earnings Growth Rate) rating of 25%. VST Vector, the master indicator for ranking every stock in the VectorVest database, logs a very good rating of 1.28, (also on a scale of 0.00 to 2.00), and with a current value of 257p on offer, there is clear upside potential from the current 182p
The share of SSY.L is shown above with the share about to break above a 3-month high.
Summary: A scintillating interim results performance from SSY shows the diverse revenue opportunities open to the company, and also shows how much progress has been made since VectorVest first highlighted the company here last year. But as can be seen, debt is falling rapidly, a loss has turned to a profit, and SSY now sits with a huge forward order book. Notwithstanding the success of our SSY call last year, fundamentals and charts continue to impress. Keep buying.

On July 6th2018, FFX published a trading statement for the six-month period ended 30thJune 2018. The Company reported a strong first half of trading, with substantial growth and new products launched. Against this background, strong margins have been maintained and rationalisation of the supply chain is delivering results. Including contributions from newly acquired Cardone Banking and City Forex, FFX reported a 146% increase in turnover for the year on year period to £1.1bn (2017: £434.1 million), in line with management’s expectations. The strong first half gives the Board confidence that the Company will achieve market expectations for the full financial year. CEO Ian Strafford-Taylor said the fact that the substantial growth in turnover has been achieved without reduced margins “gives us great confidence for the prospects for 2018 and beyond.”
The impressive progress by FFX since Feb 2018 did not go unnoticed by VectorVest. A Relative Value flag (RV is an indicator of long-term price appreciation) had originally alerted members back as far as Sept 2017, as the level moved above 1. The FFX RV has remained well above 1 since that time, and today logs the stock at 1.71, which is both exceptional and excellent on a scale of 0.0 – 2.0. Other leading metrics on the VectorVest stock and portfolio management system include a GRT (Earnings Growth Rate) of 48%, again both exceptional and excellent, along with a good RS (Relative Safety) rating of 1.12, also on a scale of 0.0 – 2.0. Even so, trading today at 138p, FFX is still some way below the current VectorVest valuation of 183p.
The chart of FFX is shown above in my normal format. The green line study above the price is the VectorVest valuation while Earnings per share is reflected by the blue line study in the window below the price. Technically the share is trending higher but currently “coiling” within a symmetrical triangle. A breakout of the upper trendline defining the triangle should lead to a strong move upwards.
Summary: FFX already dominates what is a highly competitive space with its secure low cost, multi-currency payment solutions. Eagle eyed VectorVest members who spotted this opportunity back in September last year will already have seen their investment double in value, but as the fundamentals and charting configuration indicate today, there is a great deal more growth to come. FFX stated that H2 is about extracting efficiencies via scale, evolving banking products for SME’s and continuing to identify and maximise cross-selling opportunities. On the evidence presented today, this innovative financial services challenger brand will continue to deliver growth with this strategy, and in the opinion of VectorVest, offers a compelling investment opportunity right now. Buy.
