I too have been in this a long long time. At one point i was up 150% but since those days my gain has been slowly eroded away. Should have sold up but every result that came out was better than the last so stayed with it. I just dont get why this hasnt gone to the 90p which is where at one point it was heading. If anyone can enlighten me then please do.
I have been invested here for a long time and the company has gone from strength to strength but the share price is dwindling away over time. Do you think it is because of the lack of regular updates other than results? They seem to have made smart acquisitions along the way, maybe they need to invest some of the profits into the dividend or share buy backs to get people involved with the company again.
The award winning tipster should take another look at the share price. Since the article the share price has dropped another 12% and has been dropping for some time now. Great profits and prospects and Share price keeps dropping. WHY???. I just don't get it.
The award winning tipster has tipped our share - let's hope she is right! http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/news/article-5513379/Joanne-Hart-tops-tipsters-again.html http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/investing/article-4913274/MIDAS-SHARE-TIPS-banks-retreat-s-good-news-1pm.html
1pm's presentation from our recent Birmingham seminar and their stockopedia report is available in our full member exclusive area: https://www.sharesoc.org/members-area/
I see you Mr 25k, been watching you for a while, don't know what you're up to but I see it as a good sign
recent trend is still up from the low of around 42, this could do well in its own time imo
sells trickling through at the moment, strange this hasn't moved, all set moving forwards!
Mentions in the video that plan going forwards is to fully integrated the acquisitions and not do anymore unless a great opportunity comes up. To me that reduces the risk of further dilution and future results should enable easier analysis of underlying performance.
25k and 35k buys, tick up coming soon maybe.....
�5k :-0
Not sure how to prove but my guess is the company has few long term followers. The price rise was due to speculators buying in before the results and then dumped, taking profits right after the announcement. There is also the fact that severe dilution has meant that a cracking increase in profit hasn't flowed into EPS.
Buys showing as sells here
Out
Why is it that the results are always excellent and the share price gets hit hard. Why?? It happens every time. Why?? Can someone explain. ??
Any forecast for tomorrows EPS. 4p at half year 8.5 at year end
This is never going to be the share to set your portfolio on fire but it is a nice steady riser, I wish I could call the peaks as I could of made a lot of money here over the years. I will continue to hold though as it has only ever been positive news here and the management company are positioning themselves well. Hopefully see the dividend rise a little bit this year and the upward trend will continue.
I agree. Has dropped on positive news, I assume due to Brexit and UK economy concerns. I will continue to hold as expect it to grow at a steady pace for rhetoric next few years.
New Year, thought I'd take a look. Steady progress - nothing earth shattering but a solid long term investment (5 - 10 years)
Seems like a rather positive announcement, but not much price movement in response. Is it simply under-watched or in the grand scheme of things, a relatively insignificant announcement?
Some really good news this morning, hopefully this will start some upward momentum. Good possible increase in the dividend if the profits are 70% higher.
1PM are lined up to present at our growth company seminar in Birmingham on the 6th February next year, more details and registration here: https://www.sharesoc.org/events/sharesoc-growth-company-seminar-birmingham-6-february-2018/
I first came across 1PM via Simon Thompson in Investors Chronicle. I have asked him his view following the recent drift down of the SP. Here is his reply: "There has been no negative news to warrant this. In fact, a few weeks ago the company announced that both the Academy Leasing and Bradgate Business Finance acquisitions successfully achieved their respective earn-out targets for the financial year ended 31 May 2017. The shares issued to the vendors are subject to 12-month lock ins. At the current price 1pm shares are rated on less than six times EPS estimates of 7.8p for the 2017/18 financial year (Hardman & Co forecast), trade on a 23 per cent discount to book value of 56p (estimate as of May 2018) and offer a 1.5 per cent prospective dividend yield. Bad debts have not been an issue, nor is funding. I remain positive on the investment case despite the share price drift." Maybe a top up opportunity for the brave?
Fairly small trades having big impact on SP. All I can think of is earn out shares being sold which is creating downward pressure. Could also be general fear over debt in the UK with Brexit reducing demand. No bads news available that I have seen to justify the drop.
