A New Era of U.K.-Bank Competition?

By SARA SCHAEFER MUñOZ LONDON -- Generating more retail-banking competition in the U.K. may be more difficult than expected, despite moves this week intended to lure new competitors to the market, analysts and bankers say. Lloyds Banking Group PLC and Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC both will be forced to divest various retail bank branches in coming years as a condition of receiving state aid. Lloyds will sell about 600 retail branches, and RBS will shed about 300 as well as other assets. The sales will trim Lloyds' checking-account market share by 5 percentage points, its mortgage-market share by 5 percentage points, and RBS' retail-market share by 2 percentage points. The rare opportunity to acquire retail-bank assets in the U.K. is intended to bring new competitors to the market, which has been dominated by a handful of big players. The U.K. government says that retail U.K. banks such as Barclays PLC and HSBC Holdings PLC, which already have a significant presence in the U.K. market, would be blocked from the purchases, though buyers could include large foreign banks. Other possible buyers include Tesco PLC's Tesco Personal Finance, a division of the U.K. supermarket chain that has been looking to increase its market share of loans, credit cards and savings accounts; and Virgin Money, part of Virgin Group Ltd., which w...

U.K. Supermarkets Plan Rock-Bottom Holiday Prices

By KATHY SANDLER LONDON -- The U.K.'s two largest supermarket chains Thursday sparked a price war that is set to escalate in the lead up to Christmas, with Asda Group Ltd. warning that it could be the most aggressive discounting during the key holiday period for a decade. Wal-Mart Stores Inc.-owned Asda, the U.K.'s second-largest supermarket chain, and larger rival Tesco PLC both pledged to save customers millions of pounds on food and gifts over the festive season. Reporting a 5.6% rise in third quarter same store sales, excluding fuel and VAT, Asda said it will save shoppers £150 million through lower prices and special discount offers. Shortly afterwards Tesco said it has cut prices across its stores to save customers £250 million over the next six weeks. Rivals like Sainsbury PLC and William Morrison Supermarkets PLC are likely to follow suit. With the U.K. economy still in recession and consumers worrying about higher taxes and more job losses next year, retailers are having to fight for sales. Earlier this week, Sainsbury Chief Executive Justin King said that Christmas is shaping up to be 'feisty', but he downplayed the threat of a price war, noting that supermarkets used discounts and promotions every Christmas. Throughout the downturn, supermarkets have managed to offer discounts on branded products, which are instigated, and the cost largely borne, by the supplier rather than the grocer itself, King said. Christmas-specific promotions are already evident. Sainsbury, Asda and Tesco have already run half-price toy promotions. Still, not everyone is convinced that the massive p...

Ahold Ready to Dig Into Cash Pile

By ANNA MARIJ VAN DER MEULEN AMSTERDAM—Dutch-based international supermarket chain operator Ahold NV says it's finally ready to use its €2.6 billion ($3.7 billion) cash pile to make targeted acquisitions, a move analysts say is meant to boost a lagging share price and ward off would-be buyers. Ahold said Nov. 5 it was appointing operational managers for the Europe and U.S., where it runs Stop & Shop and Giant Landover freeing up the board members responsible for those areas to spend more time on expansion projects. An Ahold spokesperson said that the company will look at growing in its existing continents, and that a combination of acquisitions and organic growth is possible in markets where it is already active, or adjacent new markets. He declined to comment on whether the company is currently in takeover talks. The move was seen by analysts as a first step to end several years in which Ahold has underperformed the market and its European and U.S. peers, such as Carrefour SA, J. Sainsbury PLC, Supervalu Inc. or Safeway Inc., following an accounting scandal in 2003 that brought the company close to bankruptcy. While Ahold has been battling to regain investor confidence since the accounting scandal six years ago, it has built up a cash pile of over €2.5 billion and hardly any debt. Its net debt stood at €1.16 billion at the end of July this year from €1.37 billion in April and is expected to go down further. While some investment bankers say the 2003 events still make international investors reluctant to buy the stock, analysts have been eager for Ahold to make use of its excess cash position. ING Wholesale Banking analyst John David Roeg says Ahold is undervalued on all metrics, in spite of being highly cash-generative. Its price-to-earnings ratio, a measure commonly used by analysts, ...
