Van Elle (VANL): New CEO starts in October
Key data
- Share price (p): 81.5
- Target price (p): 80.0
- Market cap (£m): 65.2
- Enterprise value (£m): 69.8
The new CEO has a strong CV but we will have to wait for his views on the operations and growth prospects as he starts in October. An interim manager has been appointed until then. FY 2018 adj. PBT will be better than we feared it might be (£10.5m vs our forecast £9.1m), but there remain a number of challenges both internal and market related. With these risks in mind, and the rewards unclear until the new CEO has had time to review the business, we maintain our Hold recommendation.
