Delivering growth in uncertain markets

Positive interims from Vp this morning highlight another period of growth despite the mixed market backdrop. The results again illustrate the benefit of Vp’s diverse mix of specialist activities, with the quality of earnings confirmed by further growth in operating margin (now 13.9%) and ROCE (14.7%).

Strategic priorities include continued progress with ESG initiatives and a greater emphasis on Digital, with more on this likely to follow later in the year.

We maintain our Fair Value estimate of £10.90 per share, based on the Group’s historic average trading multiples, noting the impressive track record of long-term growth, high returns and the successful navigation of previous economic cycles.
