any idea on dates and times when we may see a figure released?
51% it has been there or there abouts for month or so ! Competitors would normally look to be 10-15% higher but no-one anywhere near that across the country !
does any body know the current utilisation figures ?most of the opposition are pretty dismal at the moment.rental income down by 40% in some cases.
I bow to your greater wisdom.
this will be a buy buy buy. Does anyone know when any news may be released? the decline may be due to redundancies ie redundant employees cashing out or due to profit takers selling up aftter getting in at 70p. my target for this one its 2 - 3 pounds asap
and of course we have to remember that as the largest powered access company in Europe, its not just the consortium stuff that can benefit Lavendon from the Olympics - http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/markets/article5989413.ece
don't think this is going to set things on fire just yet. News was out with these details on March 27th which is probably what pushed us up to 170p briefly on that day. The below article gives a bit more detail, Construction Site Solutions are on the north site and rental revenues could be up to £150million. http://www.khl.com/magazines/international-rental-news/detail/item33773/Rival-rental-groups-set-up-depots-at-London-Olympics-site/ Hopefully though the price will continue to rise slowly and when Lavendon are able to release more detail about the contract win in terms of value then we should see the price jump quite a bit. Be nice to see it jump tomorrow though :-)
Is this the confirmatio we've been looking for. well, almost a confirmation. They're barred from publicly announcing anything for the moment. Anyway, should sail through 171p on Monday. Fingers crossed. And then my new target will be £5. LOL http://thisisbusiness-eastmidlands.co.uk/News/Leicestershire/Key-Olympics-deal-goes-to--consortium.aspx?ITO=1616
The bidding was down to 2 syndicates & Lavendon were in with both, so yes wise to look at long term picture as will no doubt bump up price when its announced. When at £7+ were overvalued by 25% so agree with the £5 as a good price guide for when to take profits !
Getting awful close now. Currently only 50 quid down which is a far cry from £1500 down. definitely not selling - here for the long run. How far is this going to go? I wouldn't think of selling before it got to its old trading range of 500p; And we've got the Olympics to think of now. Short run? No idea. I'm surprised it's recovered so quickly so who knows
definite job cuts in LVD this week. The olymipc bid have to go to LVD. No other possible comany able to fullfill such a contract. Job cuts are just the result of the buy out of the platform company. It was only a matter of time untill job cuts came through. Still a 100% strong buy for me. In for at least 4-5 years
Have this week cut 150 jobs (approx 15%) of work force to cut costs across UK business, rumours of Olympics being secured but they have been around for months. Barking depot is being cleared to become a 'holding depot for the Olympics which is the clearest indication of 'Licence to trade' on Olympics being approved !
almost at your 171p target. Anybody have any thoughts on how far this might go?
will be announced. Its the largest and only reall powered access company able to support such projects. Its only a matter of time. This share will be a reall earner for anyone in now!
very odd indeed. Someone has an automatic Buy set up for every 5 mins, been running since open this morning. There have been a few small buys and sells the last week or so of the same amount. On a thinly traded stock like LVD these can move the SP quite considerably. Someone is playing with the SP for sure.
looking very nice indeed! News about the olympiuc contracts has to be soon.
the buys on these shares. Soo many bought at 60 lots at a time within a few minutes between. Anyone explain what the fo<k this is?
that 171p is getting closer and closer
recovering nicely, news around the corner and plenty of good size buys over the last few days.
great to see LVD climbing again today.
Deal of the day - Alan Merrell, finance director of Lavendon Group, bought 7,660 shares at 104p in the construction equipment hire company. Lavendon’s shares, up 1p at 105p, have recovered from a 77p low since a hedge fund that was being wound up closed its position. They have been supported by the prospect of a contract to supply tools for the London 2012 Olympic site.
Government are due to award the Olympic contracts this month. The good news is that there are 2 consortiums left in the running and LVD are in both. I'm guessing that the key is therefore not whether they get part of the Olympic contract, as that appears to be a given, but the value of the contract. I'm assuming that LVD has a differing contract value in each of the consortiums.
great day.hoping for a little jump tmaro,when will we find out if they got the contracts?
I think this could keep rising. Hopefully today's jump might be a sign that the Olympic contracts are of good value and close to being awarded. Might just be sentiment returning to sensible about LVD. Some good director buy the last few days which is always a good sign.
day guys,do we think we can see more 2maro?
