Compass (CPG LN) & BAE Systems (BA/ LN)
Consumer Discretionary / Industrials
Willis Welby looks at UK growth names (>$2.5bn M/Cap) that have not shared in the share price rises since Oct 26th. CPG has seen analyst downgrades despite a robust update during Nov, but looks like a very strong compounding story that is not expensive and makes great sense at current prices. However, it is BAE that really stands out. The defence contractor has seen upgrades to consensus Y2 EBIT over the last three months and more recently has announced more good news on orders. Relative to US peers that implied to Y3 EBITM ratio of <60 looks way too low. Other stocks discussed in their report include AstraZeneca and Games Workshop.
