Shareholders are entitled to an exclusive 10% discount on all goods purchased online or from the Carr Lane shop in Hull.
Is a very good share,I have been with them 12 years.The price now of Tesco and Sainsburys seems to offer good value at the moment.I bought some more Tesco yesterday,but sadly went in the wrong direction today,maybe tomorrow ....
An interesting comparison, but worth commenting on. KCOM put out a dull but positive IMS and the shares are up 5% in 2 days; Tesco release a slightly negative quarter results and it's down 20% in 10 mins ! I'm in Tesco but will look to top up around next results, as can't see it moving much till then. All the £5 off coupons I'm getting won't help the margin this quarter. As for KCOM, they seem to be gradually improving their margins, so it's one to stick away and count the money as it gets returned in the divis.
I am still in kcom but spending more time watching Tesco for the bounce back up.
Another solid IMS yesterday; not exactly full of news but positive nonetheless. Still talking about the continuing yearly 10% divi rise though, which is always a good sound, considering it's yielding over 5% already ! One to hold for the medium term I think.
Anyone any thoughts on reason for near 5% drop yesterday, everything looks fine . and holding well today, maybe just mass profit taking for those lucky enough to have bought on 66p October dip.

KCOM: finnCap reiterates buy rating and 100p target
I just dont get it, what does the city have against Kcom? Telecom plus can do no wrong jumping leaps and bounds even in advers conditions, Yet KC deliver strong results and keep to their promise and the share price falls? Are prices no longer linked to the performance of a Company but rigged by a central city computer?
but how would they get hold of the names/email adresses of holders of kcom?
Definitely a scam! I am in Sheffield United,which is now a private company,several shareholders including me where offered a ridiculous price for our penny shares.That started with a phone call from the far east.I got my offer in january.I have also been scammed (not with shares) by people in Ghana and Senegal,but not Nigeria.I am happy to hold my Kcom shares,they are steadily going up.
Received a phone call at 9.30pm lst night from Greenways Consulting Grp. Purporting to be acting for a client on the acquisition of majority stake in KCom. Offered me between £7 and £18 per share. They sent a Non Disclosue agreement by email and asked me to lodge a bond for the US authorities. They would then get back to me to confirm the price I would be offered for my holding. There is a web link to their site, it looks professional but their IPaddress ands domain id very new (July 2011). Smells like a scam so watch out

KCOM – Hold A solid set of final results has cemented KCOM’s turnaround story and allowed the group to more than double the full-year dividend. Notable progress has also been made on reducing debt while the pension deficit has shrunk considerably. Future earnings growth is now more dependent on revenue growth than cost cutting but with a solid dividend yield we rate the stock a hold.
Hope this helps. Just cant get it out of my head that the big buys coming in are not just pension and investment funds but speculation about a take over in the future now the Company has shed its liabilities and streamlined for the future or maybe an aquasition of its own. It cant stand still resting on the Hull ring fenced market place for its base business.
Finncap raises Kcom Group Plc price target to 100P from 80P; rating buy For a summary of rating actions and price target changes on FTSEurofirst 300 companies:
cappro hi just want to know who tipped at a £1 good to hear could go even higher all guns blazing
Just noticed the shares tipped as buy with a £1 target price, at last fingers crossed they are going in the right direction, its been long over due !
quite a few chunky sized buys going through today, some institutional investment going on?
At 11am we had two 1,000,000 buys go through. Got to be a good sign!
i have lost on other shares and this is my gem 80 pence would be great but i would say that is a fair value. what i would like is a tech bubble where investers go mad crazy and then i sell at £ 2 a share it may happen gla
Finally a bit of buying pressure here...hopefully this means we are heading back up towards 80p again. Fingers crossed.
Doubled divi at KCOM Date: Thursday 26 May 2011 LONDON (ShareCast) - Hull-based telecoms group KCOM leapt to a 52-week high on the back of a 40% increase in profits and a doubling of the full-year dividend. Underlying profit before tax in the year to 31 March rose to £41.2m from £29.4m the year before. Reported pre-tax profit soared to £32.9m from £19.2m. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation climbed 8.8% to £76.0m from £69.8m a year earlier, on revenue that slipped 4.2% to £395.4m from £412.8m. The company said the slide in revenue represented a deliberate policy to eschew low margin business, and pointed out that revenue in the second half of the financial year, at £200.6m, was ahead of the first half figure of £194.8m. Net debt was reduced by £34.8m to £82m at the end of March, while the pension defcit was slashed to £6.9m from £50.4m. The cash generation has given the board confidence to more than double the full-year dividend to 3.6p; last year, the divi was 1.75p. "Our results are ahead of expectations, with strong cash generation and a further strengthening of the balance sheet," said Bill Halbert, executive chairman of KCOM. "We are pleased, based on those results, to be recommending an increased final dividend of 2.5p, making the full year dividend 3.6p, more than double that of the previous year and to reiterate our earlier commitment to 10% dividend growth over the next two years, reflecting the board's confidence in future performance". Broker finnCap notes that having tipped the wink at the interims stage that the full-year dividend would be increased to 3.3p, the company over delivered with a a pay-out of 3.6p. "With revenue and EBITDA in line, while we have yet to see the evidence of delivery of management's ambition for material margin and revenue growth in, the dividend delivery and guidance oozes confidence," finnCap analyst Andrew Darley said. "We haven't seen KCOM grow revenue organically for nearly a decade; however, if the company can move to a higher value-add model delivering new customers and growth from a resold BT product portfolio with “higher touch” levels of customer service and delivery, the potential is there," Darley suggested. The broker has reiterated its "buy" rating but raised its price target to 80p to peg the valuation on a projected 5% yield. David Johnson, analyst at Northland Capital Partners, said: “Better than expected results with a cherry in the form of a bigger final dividend. After two years of restructuring, the business has reduced debt, moved out of lower margin business and reduced the pension deficit." Northland is sticking with its "buy" rating for the stock. "In spite of a 40% share price appreciation over the 12 months, it still looks attractive on this bas
