This one is just un loved... Looking to buy some more ex divi, probably a real bargain then. GLA
FFS what is happening with HEAD shares??? Divi coming and good news from the BoD and future growth and upward trend on the market, why???
Is there a secret MM big buy being filled???
Wow. Share buybacks everyday!! Plus huge buys yesterday and today, but still the sp drop 3-4p each day on a few thousands sells???? You couldn’t make it up!!! Plus an ex-divi date of 5 May 22 and 26.3p being paid, Wow!!!!
I cannot see, when HEAD are buying back shares at a steady rate each day, plus big buys of 50,000 and 100,000 shares being bought, why the sp is still at 380p?? It should be over 395p with all the buybacks and big buy share trades?? How are the MM’s holding this back?? Especially with a 26.3p divi and ex divi date of 5 May not far away, strange!!!!
Great final and special divi coming in May of 26p. Should see this take off now!
Great presentations and a well run company, with huge growth potential and new contracts!!

The market would have gone nuts today but HEAD hasn't seen enough of a rise today. I dont think things are going to get hairy but in this environment it will always be a close shave. Grab some HEAD while you can and don't be a suckered. Lovely 14.4p divi. Buy.
Profits "slightly ahead" of market expectations, on revenue up c15%, as predicted.
"Early trading in 2022 has been encouraging, and the Company has continued to be able to largely mitigate the persisting industry wide supply issues and associated inflationary pressures."
Search for new CEO continues.
This is a pleasing update, but given the market shenanigans I expect no progress today!
in 2022. Cream always rises to the top. With HEAD we can expect a spurt or two coming up. The warehouse fire will hopefully not douse expectations.
its my main supplier, a big blow from both ends
Wasn’t hundred percent sure that’s a blow then.
its part of headlam
mcd in kidderminster is on fire, not looking good either,
It wasn’t one of ours it was Carpet wholesaler in Kidderminster MCD
One of the biggest Headlam group ware house is on fire
..
More or less back at 2019 levels, with increased margins and efficiencies. Well managed, sir!
Is back in favour. I got a lovely rise today. Hard to swallow but this is one of the best prospects around. Who can say no to HEAD anyway? Can we go on a run to 600p or expect a pullback? I think you have to grab the opportunity of HEAD with both hands but noobs could always suck it and see I suppose. You can always withdraw and hold your head up high. But having personally got in at a much lower level I am positively creaming myself at the action here.
Today's action just blew me away tbh. Most of other shares went down on me today so the strong rise I saw here was a massive relief. This time last year at just over 200p I was debating getting HEAD as I knew things might get hairy. It was a close shave but could have gone either way though i thought it was an attractive bi. Just like my wife I am looking forward to getting a load here. HEADCis such an attractive proposition that I am looking forward to shooting the lights out on this one. I am so glad when Midas's tip came out I didnt sit on it but got my wad out and splashed out. TP 600p
I only invest here for this sort of smut. Cheers me up no end, keep it up!
Look we all know how Head works. It goes up and down right? But today it has shot up. I promised my wife a facial if I got enough HEAD so I am delighted to splash out on her. When HEAD was 200p even I didn't think the management could pull it off. I will grab me some more HEAD as itbis worth at least 600p
In the couple of weeks ahead of CMD (1st July) the Headlam share price came under pressure, no doubt exacerbated by the typical low liquidity in the stock.
I wondered if the market had got wind of something nasty but something about the extended reaction made me feel it was nerves rather than anything else. In the last week ahead of the CMD the trading numbers indicated there was me and one other buyer of the stock and ten times that number selling out.
In the event, the RNS referred to “documented industry supply issues” but Headlam inventory levels had been maintained. Was that the market fear? Who knows? I checked levels against 2019 interim numbers, and they looked okay to me.
On the event itself, it seemed well attended considering the topic, but the key highlight for me was a well-presented argument for the optimisations which were initiated before Covid and the expected result of 7.5% profit on expanded revenues.
I bought in here last year on expectations of a prompt return to 2019 revenues and margins so confirmation of expectations for something much better are a bonus.
I noted trading volumes have picked up over the last few days so googled for news. No surprise to find that a Mr James Henderson has written up a positive piece for Moneyweek, under the headline, “Three solid stocks to ride the UK’s rapid recovery”. I’d guess that if James hadn’t attended the CMD he’s at least viewed the recording available on the Headlam website. Or perhaps not.
For me, key is that 7.5% profit metric, but James doesn’t mention it in his piece.
Perhaps the most important phrase is "the commercial sector is continuing to recoup its earlier weakness". Commercial property use and values have plummeted. Seeing improvements here is key. Could also have repercussions for AIEA f anyone is interested.
