A FTSE 250 inventory
First up is Video games Workshop (LSE: GAW). Recognized for its Warhammer franchise, the warfare video games firm isn’t your common retailer.
For starters, there’s a stunning lack of cyclicality within the enterprise. It grew gross sales each in the course of the 2008 monetary disaster and the 2020-21 pandemic (admittedly helped by individuals being caught indoors).
In its most up-to-date H1 outcomes, CEO Kevin Rountree mentioned: “We proceed to carry out nicely throughout difficult financial occasions, delivering report group income, revenue and dividends within the interval. Morale is sweet at Video games Workshop and our hobbyists are having enjoyable too.”
The corporate is a transparent market chief in a really worthwhile area of interest. As such, it boasts extraordinarily excessive margins and returns on capital.
In December, the agency lastly inked a cope with Amazon to show the Warhammer 40,000 universe into movies and a tv sequence. There are over 200m Amazon Prime members worldwide, so this publicity might appeal to a brand new legion of followers.
After all, there’s a danger the content material is poorly acquired. That might harm the model. However with Warhammer aficionado Henry Cavill set to provide and star, I’ve received excessive hopes.

A FTSE 100 inventory
JD Sports activities Style (LSE: JD) most likely wants no introduction. The sportswear retailer has been knocking about on British excessive streets and inside procuring malls for a few years now.
To be trustworthy, if this was a agency flogging trainers and tracksuits simply within the UK, I most likely wouldn’t have an interest within the inventory. However with over 3,500 shops in 38 international locations, this can be a actually world enterprise.
Not all of these shops are JD-branded, however collectively they contribute to a big worldwide presence. And income has grown quickly over the previous few years.
The agency was anticipating to put up £1bn in pre-tax earnings in its final monetary 12 months (FY 2024). Nonetheless, whole gross sales got here in at £10.5bn, up 3.6% on the earlier 12 months however decrease than initially anticipated.
Full-year earnings within the £915m-£935m vary at the moment are anticipated. The market wasn’t proud of this revision and the share value has fallen 23% 12 months thus far. Extra volatility might observe if gross sales weaken.
The excellent news is that the inventory may be very attractively valued proper now. At 122p per share, it’s buying and selling on a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of round 10.
For a progress inventory, even one hitting a velocity bump attributable to weak shopper spending, that’s filth low-cost.
Plus, analysts nonetheless count on earnings to broaden by round 29% within the subsequent couple of years.
In the meantime, the agency simply splashed out $1.1bn to accumulate US sportswear retailer Hibbett, which has over 1,000 shops throughout the pond. This strategically enhances JD’s presence in North America, the biggest athleisure market on the planet.
After we look again in a couple of years, I reckon JD shares might show to a licensed cut price at right now’s value. I’m planning so as to add this inventory to my ISA in June.
