buys, movements, action at last
Results as excepted. I didn't expect the number of corporate clients to have fallen that much but good to see they're helping clients raise more money, which bodes well for the H1 figures
Someone's just bought nearly 2% of the company. I assume it's the EBT, but could be the company now that they are post results. We'll find out tomorrow I guess
The company website has been updated for significant shareholders.
Charles Stanley and Miton both have lower holdings now than they previously did.
Looks like someone moving their own holding from one wrapper to another
Hopeful me says someone is realising a tax loss while moving the holding to a tax advantaged wrapper in hope of a future gain tax free
Looks like the 'usual' selling today into the monthly staff scheme purchase.
3 decent buys in the last 30 minutes of a Friday afternoon is unusual, especially given recent low transaction volume
Results should be due within the next month or so
Wow. Someone was desperate to sell. That was 1.5p below an already big spread of 12 - 15p
That was my first thought too. Whatever the long term cost I imagine the short term savings help right now. It was the scope of the new job that stood out to me. Revenue roughly = to all of Arden
With Equities revenues reported as consistently falling, it is not apparent that FM over-delivered in his 3+ years at Arden. Might it be the case that the firm actually benefits from what is likely to be a not insignificant overhead saving?
Given the job he's going to at WHI, Fraser Marshall looks like a big loss to ARDN
I got excited when I saw the title of that RNS, but its not a transaction in their own shares, its the share scheme buying its monthly allotment, which is normally reported as a director shareholding as a James Reed Daunter is a participant
Looking at linked in it seems they've recruited another senior person
Hard to know if it's an addition or a replacement, but hopefully suggests confidence
The more I look at Finncap the more I think they could be a good acquirer here.
They've got through Covid with growth, an office move, a merger with Cavendish and have built up cash, so why not do it all again with Arden next year? lots of fixed costs that could be shed/shared
Given the volatility, H1 trading losses, and stronger corporate activity, it would be good to a year end trading update rather than wait until January to see the results
Looks like the EBT is buying again\
And again it's showing 3 sales, though I suspect it will get reported as 1 buy.
Who is selling though? A lot bought by the EBT in the past few months but no major holders have disclosed a reduction. Maybe it's the staff who received the previous EBT distribution who are now selling them back to the EBT at higher prices.
Yesterday Arden announced on Linkedin a new research director has been appointed.
If they're recruiting hopefully that's a positive sign
Two trades are showing today but were from 10 Sep.
It makes me wonder why company related trades, either the EBT or share incentive plan, often seem to appear as if there were 3 trades. e.g. 3 x 125,000 sells appearing at 13p, which resulted in the EBT buying 125,000 at 13p. Any know?
This is a painful spread. Difficult to attract buyers when you start with a loss like that. Or maybe thats the aim.
Agree there cant be too many outside holders, and even fewer at these levels despite recent rises.
The EBT and Share incentive plan are regular buyers and so should support the price in the absence of any major selling.
Whether they can get to £10m revenue who knows. I still think the best thing opportunity to be acquired or merged with another small player, such as Finncap. Especially as firms reassess need for dedicated office space in London
If it does reach 50p again we'll both be very pleased!
First bought in Jan '18 above 50p and thought this would rise from that level !
Have doubled down several times since including in Apr @ 4.8p to get my av below 11p.
Can't imagine there are that many outsider shareholders in this company, but now that it looks like the BoD are using stock & options to incentivise the staff this could quite easily revert to 2018 prices. Growing revenue and profit to return to a 10m income ; 2m profit company is not at all far fetched and then this sp will look ridiculous
Looks like Arden have lost being Nomad for Tavistock plc to Allenby.
Tavistock aren't large, their share price has struggled and Arden are moving into Wealth Management, but interesting to note.
Companies always shout the wins but you have to look for the losses
Another big EBT purchase announced, plus we should get more share incentive plan purchases later this week.
Some big sales today and still the share price goes up 16% and the spread narrows.
Bodes well for next week, especially now that the company can buy its own shares again.
