Metrofile (MFL) is a company that specializes in records storage and management, image processing, and backup. The company has been listed since 1995 and has a 57.4% Black ownership. The Mineworkers Investment Company owns 38.64% of the business, and Sanlam owns 5%.
The company's record management division has 52 facilities at 27 locations with over 100,000 square meters of offices and warehousing. Housatonic Partners, a US company, made an offer to buy 100% of Metrofile for 330c per share but delayed the deal because of COVID-19. They stated that they would want to see the end-June 2020 results and "three months of normal trade" before reconsidering. Despite this, they have assured the company of their wish to continue with the possible acquisition of Metrofile.
In its results for the year to 30th June 2024, the company reported revenue up 1% and headline earnings per share (HEPS) down 49%. The company said, "General market conditions were weak. Demand for cloud services remained strong and now contributes 32% (2023: 26%) of our digital services revenue."
In a trading statement for the six months to 31st December 2024, the company estimated that HEPS would fall by between 23% and 46%. We see this as a good-quality small business that seems to be battling in a very tough economic climate.
Technically, the share now looks to be in a new downward trend. On 5th September 2024, the company announced that its CEO, Pfungwa Serima, would resign with effect from 30th September 2024. He will be replaced by Thabo Seopa.
