1. Games Workshop – BUY
Symbol: GAW.L
Index: FTSE 100
The games manufacturer has announced a 100p dividend payment, which takes the total payout for the year to 520p.
Charles Hall, an analyst at Peel Hunt, has a buy recommendation in place on the stock and a target price of 15,000p.
“The scale of dividend payments demonstrates that healthy sales are converting into profits and cash,” he said. “There continues to be a lot to look forward to.”
2. Spire Healthcare – BUY
Symbol: SPI.L
Index: FTSE 250
The healthcare provider’s shares have fallen sharply after it narrowly missed full-year earnings targets and downgraded guidance.
However, Seb Jantet, an analyst at Panmure Liberum, believes this is now one of the most attractive value plays in the sector.
“The shares look highly attractive at these levels and we think Spire is looking vulnerable to an approach,” he said.

3. Dr Martens – HOLD
Symbol: DOCS.L
Index: FTSE 250
The iconic shoe manufacturer has enjoyed great success with its latest products and seems focused on delivering sustainable profit recovery.
John Stevenson, an analyst at Peel Hunt, is hoping its June presentation should provide further confidence that momentum is starting to shift.
“Product-focused marketing drove footfall, while new launches are selling out,” he said. “The brand is in rude health.”
4. Gamma Communications – BUY
Symbol: GAMA.L
Index: FTSE AIM UK 50 Index Index
The communications provider is set for a switch from AIM to the main market at the start of May and should see it enter the FTSE 250.
It has also announced a £50 million buyback and full-year results in line with expectations, according to Harvey Robinson, an analyst at Panmure Liberum.
“While UK macro has had an impact, they still expect satisfactory growth,” he said.
5. Savills – BUY
Symbol: SVS.L
Index: FTSE 250
The estate agency recorded a 7% increase in full-year revenue to £2.4 billion and a 38% uplift in pre-tax profits.
Its strong balance sheet also allows it to drive growth via acquisitions, according to Clyde Lewis, an analyst at Peel Hunt.
“Savills remains a quality business in our view and should enjoy a healthy recovery as and when commercial transaction activity returns,” he said.
