Well, there was support at 420p, for a small bounce, but today's drop is disappointing and concerning as now it could fall a further 10% to around 360p . At that stage I feel it is very open as a takeover target from the US, but we may struggle to get anywhere near 600p.
After several years of stagnation and treading water under previous management, there are glimmers of recovery here. I'm encouraged by the growth in the order book (notwithstanding the difficulties in A&I) and there is clearly a huge effort being get better at smoothing order flow & mitigating the impact of lumpy contracts that has been an issue for them.
Looks like 2H will see strong improvement so sp could be set to finally recover after 12 months in the doldrums
If I were sitting round the table, I would suggest they speak to the Plain English Campaign as the level of McKinsey-type jargon is ludicrous: "right-sizing and centralising our enabling functions".......what does that even mean?
Fair assessment. I am here for the long term
Typo: should *show* improvements across every sector
Yeah, a mixed bag. Some stuff was disappointing during this period, but expected to improve. Other stuff has done well and has potential to do better during the next reporting period.
On the one hand, "it could have been worse", on the other hand "next results should improvements across every sector".
It's decent enough for long-term holders, but short-term holders will want to bail, and short-termers are disproportionately driving the markets at the moment so I'm expecting this to drop and stay low until the next TU shows the expected increase in results.
Looks a satisfactory if not earth moving update. Anybody agree/ disagree?
Thinking much the same. When do predators start to take interest? Now sure whether I am looking to invest further, but I don't really want to sell either.
No, not yet.!!
The share price drop is quite dramatic and a bit worrying, considering no news. However, we are due a trading update and the drop may well be related to end of calendar year trading.
Keep an eye on support around 420p, but a bit too risky to buy prior to trading update. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised to see some interest from the US, if the price remains low.
Shall I turn the lights off?
May as well ask the same question again, 3 months on.
No RNS of consequence, 500 to 433 in 5 days, 13%+ drop.
Any idea why the wheels have fallen off?
Seems to be a constant stream of good news. So slightly surprised at this fall back in share price. They had risen well over the year but still way off all time highs. Trading inline and director share buying looks encouraging along with this thumping US army contract to be completed 2026. Gresham House hold quite a stake in at least two funds. Been watching for a while . Now seems a good time to join Nezlob, obviously £4 would have been better, but trust we wont see that again
Looks to have broken the £6 barrier.
Decided to sell a few yesterday as stuck on the 600 for a day or 2. It is my biggest holding and I just want to be a little less exposed and well in profit now.
Still as is typical it then breaks through, hopefully will go on to even more.
Come on, come on it needs to start climbing up now. I have been reading all these reports about how many smaller to medium cap UK companies could become a TO target for bigger groups as a lot of them are deemed to be very undervalued .
I would have thought RCDO should be a prime candidate for such a move. And with more than 60% of the shares held by about 10 or so big ii's, these institution would not say no to a healthy profit. The question is at what price could RCDO become a TO target ?
Holding, holding !!!
Even more impressed the sp is holding in tje middle of a proper bloodbath share wise and todays news should help the sp to breach the £6 mark once the market regain their composure !!!
Hmmm , i am impressed really as the sp seems to be holding its ground and still climbing up slowly but surely towards the £6 mark !!!
Very disappointing reaction of the sp to what i thought were very very good results with an even better future predicted, considering the very impressive order intake.
is that the sp has had a really good run up to now and i was hoping that todays results could push the price over the £6 mark. With the inevitable profit taking that is due to take place sooner or later , we could see the price come down to the £5 level again
Finally after a long time holding the stock, almost break even for me !! And the sp keeps climbing in anticipation of what i hope will be good, positive results. If so we should then break into the £6 level and upwards on onwards we go. The recent greek acquisition will also help future earnings . Its been a very long time holding though with a very meager dividend roi.
I consider today's important drop as normal profit taking and not a reaction to what i thought was a very good trading update.. At under £5 i would be a buyer again.
And just to add, they should sell the high performance auto division and concentrate on the 2 core business's.
The sp is holing its ground and creeping upwards in what must be said is an unreasonably strong market. If the volume picks up and with any good company news, i feel we could get to the £6 level.
Hmmm, the sp has finally broke through the £5 mark albeit on very low volume and no news. I dont want to get too excited as i have held this share from the £8 level with very meager returns but i feel it may continue upwards. There must and should be some profit taking soon but the fundamentals look good.
Lets hope so as RCDO has always been a very solid company but a very boring one roi wise !!!
There has been steady if unspectacular progress in price this last 6 months or so. Hopefully this will continue.
Unsual for this co !! The sp goes from 460 to 415 the up to 460 all in a few days in the middle of a very turbulent market it must be said, and the volume has picked up a bit .
I must say i am impressed !!! While most other shares and the very safe ones too, are falling like a stone, RCDO's one is holding its own and is still in positive territory. Once we get a bit of a short term rebound which is inevitable, the sp might get close to the £5 mark which would be a very welcome surprise.
The strange thing is that the sp had recently gone up to the £480 level, then came the very good results which brought the sp down to the £4.15 and now we are back to the £4.50 mark while most other shares are coming down very substantially !!!
