âBest Buys Nowâ Pick #1:
A G Barr (LSE: BAG)
Part family-owned soft drinks business that owns attractive brands.
Grew like-for-like sales by 15.9% in latest fiscal year.
Impressive momentum from its Funkin brand, the UKâs leading ready-to-drink cocktail brand, which grew revenues by 16%.
The company says that 9.6m UK consumers drink cocktails out of home, a 1.6m increase since pre-pandemic, which has helped the category increase by 13% to £686m since 2019. This looks like a growth avenue for the company.
Recent acquisition of Boost âhas performed exceptionally wellâ.
While operating margins declined from 14.9% to 13.6% due to inflationary cost pressure and higher investment, the company believes it can rebuild margins over the medium-term.
Currently trading at around 17x forecast earnings, a discount to the three-year average of closer to 20x.Â
