Might have something to to with more companies being able to use their carrier. 3 feel at home now has IOM as one of their 'feel at home' destinations so instead of having to purchase a sure or Manx Telecom sim your provider allows you to make phone calls at no extra cost when visiting IOM although I'm sure Manx Telecom are paid by the providers for the privilege. Can't really see why there should such a large discount to the sp at the present.
I agree. The dividend is very attractive so long as capital can be kept reasonably intact! - there has been decline over the past 2 years, reaching the present lows, and there are undoubtedly good reasons for this but they are always difficult to determine. Next results are due on 12 September. I was tempted to purchase late yesterday to average down my BP but decided to hold off while the price still appears to be weakening. An interesting company with reliable earnings but perhaps rather small to be of takeover interest and scope for expansion must be limited within the IoM. Also, the telecoms sector in general is so competitive - look at the variation in share price of TalkTalk over the period.
Seems strange, trading update was positive as far as I could see, divi looks safe, with potential for growth in both Global Solutions and Data Centre. I bought in today for the divi at a 5 year low price with that potential for growth. Some larger Buys and Sells going through so perhaps some institutional investors shuffling holdings?
Any views on the recent weakness?
Yeah i think it looks a fairly steady bet with the div and improving fundamental outlook. Usually like to go for higher risk speculative very low cap shares but potential here for decent returns with moderate sp growth and dividend yields.
Had a quick look, Dividend is up, data center should return to growth. Sounds good to me. A very good solid dividend payer and I'm happy to hold

Is there even more interest coming soon from the Chinese ! if so good time to buy
Now for an upward move
If the stuff was good - it might seem the crime of the century ;)
£200 quids worth of cannabis (allegedly!) hardly the crime of the century.. stupid though.
RNS today probably explains the fall last week .... insider knowledge .... one suspects.
Not posted for a while but have faith in this share as logged by Midas share to watch in the Daily Mail some time ago
Summer doldrums, institution bailing some shares, and MMs looking to tree shake .... waiting for 160 myself :)
Not invested here but based in IOM. I wondered if it's connected to issues over roaming. Vodafone et al have allowed free roaming in the Isle of Man on their contracts (linked to wider changes in EU rules). Manx Telecom have I think had to follow suit by reducing their UK roaming charges generally by 90% and offering improved tariffs for roaming as otherwise it potentially made sense for IoM residents to get uk contracts.
Can anyone explain the recent price weakness.... against the general trend of the main indices?
Deal with the Chinese....wonder how much it will be worth?
I am all for this share to go on performing
165p ... before I buy back in ..... wont be long at this rate.
Just realised that the spike coincided with the final dividend date yesterday - makes sense now!
Any idea what caused the recent spike in price? Looks pretty well back to normal now.
I absolutely love this share.Gentle growth and good divi.Love it !
I thought it looked promising but the sharemarket doesn't agree!
Decent divi coming soon. Steady away.
