Ponderings while on my morning dog walk... This week, #Manifestation. Hocus pocus or a reframing device that can help achieve your goals? What are your thoughts? ABOUT ME I'M ON A FUNDRAISE AND WELCOME CONVERSATIONS WITH #INVESTORS. About our sector and traction so far. The shopping bag sector is worth over £0.5bn in the UK. Globally the shopping bag sector is forecast to grow from $10bn to $17.6bn in the next four years. That's 70% plus market growth. Yet there is no go-to brand. We have independent 3rd party sector validation. We have a basic proof of traction. We have stress-tested our business processes. We have ambitious plans. We are raising under SEIS with an expected x20 ROI and foresee a bright future. Come, join the Stroli revolution.

Saving money without reducing benefits is possible! Post-implementation CFO feedback highlights this fact. In our industry, the conventional wisdom has been to raise member cost-sharing to lower renewal numbers. However, at Sidecar, we challenge this notion by providing reduced premiums alongside enhanced benefits. Reach out to your RSM for a presentation and witness the best of both worlds firsthand. #CostSaving #EnhancedBenefits #Sidecar #RSMPresentation

REA Group is looking to buy Rightmove – but is it the ‘Rightmove’? REA Group is considering buying Rightmove which has sent their stock down just over 5% – investors are concerned about capital risk. Many Australian companies have struggled to expand into the UK, notably Wesfarmers, Lendlease and AMP. Will REA Group fare any better? Australian customers are loyal – you only have to look at the monopolies in the Food & Beverages, Airlines, Retail and Banking sectors. Carl’s Jr recently failed to build a presence here and there are many more examples. In the UK the competition is fiercer, and customers are far less loyal. With Rightmove shrinking by 1% last year and REA Group growing by 25% last year, will this be a smart acquisition? #realestate #acquistion #news

Having opened a position recently in Impact Healthcare REIT #IHR we have further added and increased our position significantly. Other than a brief drop in Q1 of 2023 (to 98%), rent collection has been consistently 100%. Rent cover, a key measure of the affordability of rents to tenants, is at a record high 2.2x. The early drop was in part caused by a problem tenant since listing, Silverline. Now however, we have seen this be resolved with the seven homes that had been operated by Silverline, with annual rents of £1.6m, had been swiftly transferred to Melrose Holdings (MHL), which has a track record of successful turnaround. Under the intermediate stewardship of MHL, the performance of the homes improved to the point that all seven have now been transitioned to new long-term operators in just 15 months. This means that rental payments will recommence on 1 November 2024, which is earlier than we had assumed. #IHR is currently rated as a Super Stock at 93/100. The Dividend Yield is now 7.84% with a PER of 11.5. Our Target price is 114p currently but we do note that the current NAV is 117p so the discount at the current price is 22.54%.

Seems like the founding family believes there is value to unlock in this take-private attempt. And while there can be many benefits associated with being an unlisted company, we'll follow this closely to check the offer/ acceptance status. #strategy #moment #strategicthinking #strategicplanning #marketintelligence #strateg #strategy #strategicpartnerships #strategicthinking #businessconsulting #strategydevelopment #strategyandtransformation #businessconsulting #strategicplanning #consumers #businessmodel #bethechange #fundraising #cashisking
