The automotive Inchcape during Brexit

By Krassimir Todorov

Inchcape PLC. is a leading global premium automotive group, operating in 32 countries across Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe and South America, with a portfolio of the world's leading car brands in the fast-growing luxury and premium segments, providing an effective, well-financed and customer centered route to market for vehicles and spare parts. The company is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the FTSE 250 index, being currently (as of February 1st, 2019) on the 148th position as market capitalization. The company has strong and long-standing relationships with the world's leading OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) groups. The financial statements of the Group for 2018 indicated that distribution activities delivered 93% from the total operating profit (7% from retail operations), coming only from 54% of the total turnover (46% from retail sales). Figures were self-explanatory. Was that right? Was it the proper time to celebrate or to prepare the Group for any upcoming difficult times? These annoyances could be treated as exceptional items carry-forward reserves, or they indicated something else?
