Highlights

While the conceptual impact of a switch to IFRS 15 on Rolls-Royce’s (RR) revenue is somewhat understood by investors, the presenter believes the actual magnitude of the impact on revenue, and how bad it will be, is meaningfully underappreciated. Generally speaking, the “murky”, complicated math in modeling RR, and the aggressive nature of the company’s accounting for engine sales gives him confidence that the story is not well understood. As such, he is short the stock at 790p and intends to hold his position for at least the next 12 - 24 months to see how the story unfolds. If his estimates of the accounting change prove to be accurate, RR’s reported revenue on engine sales is ~75% overstated and earnings could come in closer to 15 GBp. Even if the current forward multiple framework holds (~20x) the stock could see declines of 50% or more.
