Am I missing something with the share? I spent two hours examining the financials for H1 2022 and FY 2021. The figures for H1 are not proportionate to the fall. The largest problem appears to be Covid absenteeism and a few snags with supply issues. Yes, cash flow has taken a hit but they are no where near critical levels of meeting covenants. Their order book is at an all time high. I missed that fall this morning, but if it revisits the year low tomorrow, I am in. It will be a short fuse as the FY figures are released on the 6th of December. If the figures are positive, definitely a 20% bounce.
Volume should pick up in the next few weeks as heading towards FY update, good entry point just now.

Gooch & Housego’s shares took a dive as a result and have fallen by 57 per cent so far this year, making them a particularly poor performer. More pain could come if it decides the carrying value of its intangible assets has taken a hit. However, we think that this is a quality company experiencing some short-term pain, meaning its sell-off provides the opportunity for patient investors to make longer-term gains. Buy. MF
Awfully disappointing share
This one is wiping out any gains on others I make with sell off continuing. Cant see anything to turn it around at moment so stuck with it unless I sell & make substancial loss. More II buys required but there seems to be a continuous seller here in small amounts to keep off radar. FFS need some good news....
The dividend was reinstated and safe. Not looking forward to any takeover in here for the long haul the future is bright for ghh and I'd think heading to new highs 2023/2024 and then we can hope for a bid.
Well it isnt for the dividend % so they must be relying on the up-date and rise in S.P. Or dare I say an hostile takeover.....
FY trading update due this month is bound to be good news defence business is booming, 5G rollout is gathering pace and elective health care services are getting back to normality after the lockdown.
Invesco ltd just added 55,561 shares, they obviously know a bargain like I do to.
Market Research Future (MRFR) projects the global laser processing market to reach USD 6.11 Billion, registering a 7.3% CAGR from 2020-2026 (forecast period).
Rising Need for Miniaturization of Products and Microelectronic Devices
Laser processing is a non-contact processing technique that uses a laser beam to cut/slice materials, resulting in high quality, smooth, and dimensionally correct cuts for the manufacturer. The approach is widely employed in applications ranging from surface treatment, structuring, modification, and controlled surface plastic deformation to micro/nanofabrication techniques. This process improves material damage resistance and provides composites with no microcracks. The global laser processing industry is expanding due to a variety of causes. The preference of manufacturers for laser processing techniques over traditional processing techniques is propelling market expansion. The growing need for product miniaturization and microelectronic device miniaturization is also projected to drive market expansion. Furthermore, increased automation in manufacturing facilities has generated the potential for growth in the worldwide laser processing industry.
Looks like it. Up-date on Monday ?
Tree shake before news possibly, usually the way?
Needs some good news as share back to 2013 levels.
Recall reading a few years ago that over 60% of revenue was in US dollars maybe more now, if so they'll be ****-a-hoop with the $ strength this past year.
Order book bulging just staff absence, recruiting and retention issues with are hopefully sorted now?
FY trading update due this month
Would have thought that this division is doing well in the unfortunate circumstances. Wonder if one of their optical lenses can change the S.P. from red to blue ?.
Looks like a long term hold until next up-date. Last top up at £5.65 went even lower so wont be chasing down anymore as markets are being dominated by inflation worries. Great Company but politics bringing everything down as usual.
On increasing defence spending alone this must be worth a punt surely?
I bought at 660 as well and averaged down to 640.gl.
Thought I had done o.k. to get in at £ 6.60 and then further drop. Hope to see some kind of recovery as this is a class Company regardless of current market conditions. One to hold and hope this has bottomed now.
50% more bought than sold so far today.gl.
About 2% divi less than half its high and good order book.
It seems to me that these three director buys today are nothing more than token gestures (one is for 'just' £5,000). In my view, they are worse than no director buys at all. A director buy needs to be significant if it's to be taken seriously, especially after a 20%+ drop....
Does look harsh drop but seen that there has been selling since July chart so the results were known beforehand. First time in this one after looking at results so 3 Month hold for Me as price does look attractive now.
