Matt just out of interest how many shares does Peter G have ?
Sorry - I meant MPS!!
Thanks for the information - Good point about the relatively small customer base, although Arriva has the German links. I didn't realise Peter Gillenhamer had sold out (or reduced his holding?). I think I have always looked at the growth potential for C21 and assumed this was large. On the new products side is there an R and D department within C21, or are new products to be purchased? Company bolt ons can be costly and can be an expensive minefield. Thanks for the thought provoking comments - I now need to review what I had previously thought.
I think they need some new products to be perfectly honest. Their customer base is quite small in effect. There is also the stock overhang from PeterG and having been in communication with Wilson Jennings he doesnt know what PeterG intentions are which is a bit unfortunate given that he insisted on the current chairman
Following the reshuffle at the top, current Finance Director, Wilson Jennings, will take over as Managing Director of the group's main trading company with immediate effect. He will then take on the CEO job when the incumbent leaves. Holmstrom praised Grimond for his role in repositioning the business to focus on public transport monitoring systems and the more recent expansion in mainland Europe. "Wilson is well known and respected by our staff, customers and suppliers and we are confident of a seamless transition into this role and continued momentum in the business going forward," he added. Following the announcements the firm's shares fell 13% by 1030 on Wednesday morning.
Shares in 21st Century, a leading supplier of public transport CCTV, fell after it announced the resignation of its Chief Executive and raised questions about meeting expectations this year. The firm said Nick Grimond had resigned his position as CEO for 'personal reasons' and would leave the company on 28 September 2012. The firm was currently trading in line with management's profit expectations but meeting targets depended on several contracts coming through in time. "The full year profit expectation is weighted toward the second half of the year and, while the group's current order book and sales prospects support management's expectations for the full year, achievement of these forecasts will depend upon a number of potential contracts being confirmed and fulfilled before the year end," said Chairman Jan Holmstrom. "Regardless of this we expect that the profit for the current year will exceed that achieved last year," he added. The company posted revenue for the first six months of the year of £7m, down from £7.8m in 2011. Pre-tax profits were unchanged at £0.7m and the board said it would consider a dividend.
Perhaps a good opportunity to have a top up! I havn't seen the RNS yet so am not aware of the finer points, do you think any of the fundamentals have changed?? Have there been many sells today? This firm has never been a one man band so lets hope for steady future progress. However because of its products and position in the markets this will not go unnoticed and there will be other co's running their slide rules over the figures to see if they can pick up a great company at a knock down price - while the BOD's eye is off the ball.
Bad day at black rock. Didnt think the RNS was that bad. With 4.2m in the bank thats 4.5p a share NAV in cash
sorry wrong site
the other day someone sold 5m for £1000 today bought 5m for £1500 nice £500 profit for someone and it wont be the share holders
