This company is certainly catching the eye of Analysts and Tipsters. I have kindly borrowed this summing up of the company from an online associate and agree with his findings. This really is an undervalued company.

Car Clinic (JCR traded on AIM) – Market Cap 1.32million

Business

Company owns 12 accident centres. Was formerly a division of the Dixon Motor Group.

Opportunity

Profit of circa 700,000 at interim stage – Is a growing business, so every confidence that this performance will be matched in second half, generating 1.4million in cash profits for the group. As others have pointed out this would essentially put company on PE of 1.

Company does have debts, which will require servicing. Currently 2.25million, though repayment has been more than fairly structured and allows significant amounts of cash to be retained by JCR. I assume these monies will be used for bolt on acquisitions and possibly early repayment of debt.

From my various conversations with an existing large shareholder, and to a certain extent recent statements from the company, the debt will be repaid at the rate of 400k per annum. From my calculations, and conversations with various sources, net profits this year should be more than 600,000. Compare this to the measly 1.32million market cap. As I indicated above, this is ludicrously cheap. ( NB This figure takes into account costs of acquisition, associated legal fees, initial banking fees and initial repayments. Remember, the repayments begin in earnest, next year.)

Going forward however, annual profits of more than 1.4million can be expected from the group. I expect the company to beat this comfortably next year and to continue growing at pace. So in effect, I believe Just Care Clinic can deliver annual net profits of more than 1million – Remember this is net profit. (i.e. after repayment of debt)

Directors Buying

And why shouldn’t they? They obviously see the great potential here. The Finance Director, Chris Elton was formerly FD at Dixon Motors, but moved over to take part in the action.

The future

I expect the company will be more focussed on bringing in further contracts with insurance companies. When Just Car Clinic was part of the Dixon Motor Group, whilst profitability was obviously important, as the business wasn’t a core component of the larger group bringing in new contracts was likely seen as a problem rather than a chance to deliver greater profits. I suspect the management team, motivated by significant shareholdings, will be keen to bring in as much ‘big’ insurance business as they can. I expect the company to make an announcement to this regard within the next few months or so. This is based on nothing other than gut, experience and feedback from various sources involved in the industry.

Take a closer Look

Equitygrowth.net wrote a brief piece on JCR in its 7th February newsletter. Shares Magazine has also provided positive coverage of late. I do agree that the figures do appear too good to be true, that is why I encourage investors to do their own research. This stock is undervalued – FACT. I am confident these shares will do well in the coming weeks as more investors recognise the potential, whilst going forward this is excellent material in my opinion. This isn’t hype, this is all fact which can be confirmed with just a little time and effort. Shares are currently 10.5p offered. I cannot emphasise enough - JCR is one to have a look at.

Please DYOR.

Nice to see these positive again.

Some momentum behind these.

Results to end of Dec should be out soon.

Right on cue..

Thats a new high......... NICE.

Sound start to the week.

Forward P/E of 16 and PEG of 0.9 to end of Dec this year.

Should be trading on a fair P/E of around 25 so plenty to go.

This looks great, GF. Could be another SMC, eh!

Looks like a new high.

Doing very well, out of this bought at just over 10p.................. NICE paul eh.

Another fine day and another high.

Motored today.

TA looking sound...

Motoring away again.

Really motoring away now.

One of your best GF. I missed the bus @ 30p and thought I'd leave it ... more fool me eh.!!!

An hold at the current forward P/E Kitos.

Im thinking of top slicing.

Carrying on its momentum run on small volume.

Took 25% off the top yesterday. Sensible investing.............. I hope.

If anyones looking for bargains after this latest sell off this one should surely fit the bill.

Down to about 88p and as been intraday as high as 110p in the last few weeks. Looks well oversold to me due to having a high beta.

Have a look, a quick few bob could be on the cards but DYOR.

Any thoughts now please Goldfinge? I have always liked this stock, but bought some for my daughter currently showing a loss!

After clicking into my Brokers I am very pleasantly surprised to find a sum of money deposited. This after holding JCR for about 15 years no less.. just goes to show that miner miracles can happen.
