CER stock has performed well this year, up over 11%. ECK seems to be achieving similar business performance yet the stock is down 12% YTD. Rather frustrating
ECKOH | INVESTEC BROKER | INDICATION +3-5%
Price: 38.0p | Target: 50.0p | Rec: Buy
Results are marginally ahead of expectation on all key metrics except EPS, which is an 11% beat. The new financial year has started well, with excellent order intake from renewals and new business, and the outlook for the US is relatively buoyant. Forecasts are left unchanged for now. A heavy period of renewals has largely culminated, which has positive financial implications. Valuation appears anomalous for a “category winner” in global voice security.
I've added some more back on today's weakness :)
No idea. With a decent chance of a recession, I expect many fund managers will become forced sellers due to redemptions. Might create a few bargains, especially in the small cap. space.
Any clue who is selling in volume ?
Must admit I traded quite a few on the rally but now the price has come back I've bought some of them back again. Nice when the market opens doors for you, it's been rather dull of late.
Investment case looks solid, share price weak, so I added quite a few this morning. Decent position for me now.
This company is way off most peoples radar, as proven by the small number of posts over most weeks, with many days showing no posts at all, and yet there are many companies on the AIM that continue to bleed money, year after year, but attract multiple posts every day.
As ECK becomes more and more profitable, word must surely spread and as the EPS increases, which is will, more investors will get on board.
Agree I was expecting bad news given the drop over the last few weeks - what's not to like now.
Looking good for the future as profits continue to increase, with 2023/24 looking to be even better.
Strange how the SP is lower than it was 2 years ago (80p) and I am not yet in profit having first opened a position in 2017 with a few small buys since.
Prepared to stay invested for a few more years yet, as when the company really takes off, I am confident that my investment and patience will be well rewarded.
Interesting RNS, especially the statement, 'From market research, 24% of US contact centres have said they are looking to update their call recording solution in the next 12 months*. Eckoh believes that this new solution will appeal to existing and new clients alike who are seeking to unlock the huge amount of business intelligence contained within their call and chat records.'.
Nice if Eckoh can get a decent slice of these updates to call centres.
Strange (but probably not) how the sp dropped yesterday, then this RNS is released, so looks like someone was manipulation the share price.
Clearly no bad news imminent…..would put it down to tax-year end private client selling
Eckoh plc (AIM:ECK), the global provider of Customer Engagement Security Solutions, announces it has received notification that, on 31 March 2023, Scawton Limited, a company closely associated with David Coghlan, a Non-Executive Director of the Company, purchased a total of 125,000 ordinary shares of 0.25p ("Ordinary Shares") at a price of 35.25 pence per Ordinary Share.
I took the beating. Not much to be encouraged about tech in USA at the moment. Good luck all
Yep. Another day fall. Hope this is not some in the know. I’ve had a bad day with NCC already. Hey ho for good news next week.
Hoping its just a case of very illiquid market. Anyone who has to sell at the moment is going to get a beating. Results should be out next week, so unless thins took a turn for the worse in the new year should be some meaningful progress otherwise will get savaged
Anyone have any suggestions as to why we have fallen recently? The half year results were good and the tone very upbeat. Significant improvements against most metrics. I’d be interested in anyone’s thoughts here.
Joint broker not welcomed news. Had to sell today. Shame.
Eckoh Rated New Buy At Peel Hunt; PT 60 Pence
Someone seems to be liking the pudding!
Talking absolute tosh as usual . Completely different trades the two @ 350000. So that’s over a million buys right there . But our more modest trades @ 37.75 are all buys. Happy days
Interesting. All those alledged sells are most likely buys. I just purchased a few more at those prices myself. Where as the company purchased 352000 in the market just now @38p for employees awards. What do you have to do to get a price moving up. I know how to get a price down, buy shares in it!
For long term investors this is a great opportunity to add.
Fully agree oogleflugal,
Its as you say, re 'in line being like a profit warning' in the way markets are looking at results.
No logic.
General malaise in aim stock and tech in particular. Only ‘in line’ seems to be taken as the new profit warning! Good double digit growth and higher revenues and profit than when the stock was in the 60p range is just typical of Aim logic. Of course their is no logic in this game but the global environment has dramatically deteriorated apparently. Nobody seems to have convinced the Dow Jones yet. Their PE ratio is the lowest in sector but that is still. Perhaps a little high compared to other sectors. The outlook is strong for this sector and if the management can deliver their projections this looks very good value now
I think its the high p/e ratio that is keeping the price down
The p/e has to come quite a bit down to show true value.
Don't get me wrong, this is not an attempt to de-ramp as I am a strong believer in this companies future as with all areas improving in the last 12 months, I continue to view the company as a world beater.
The company is still under the radar of both investors and potential clients.
I have bought several tranches of shares over the almost 6 years since I first bought in at 38p, which strangely enough is the current mid price, all other buys have been at a higher price, so on the whole my holdings are down.
