Rentokil Initial on track with revenue rise: There was no word on just how locally sourced the rodents were at the Grange Tower Hotel in London’s East End, but Rentokil Initial gathered some of the City’s finest minds to demonstrate to them state-of-the-art technology in pest extermination.
Really impressed with the CEO & Management Team. Think they have done a really good job. Long may it continue.
There's money in getting rid of rats. Good results today.
No huge improvement so shares price gets slated. Simply proceeding as per plan and forecast is not good enough. It's a tough and unpredictable environment! The market always has high expectations but life does not work that way.. Good solid share in my view going the right way so stick with it. DYOR
RTO is worth 200. Easy. Good divi, rising vermin problems and top class service provider!
Imo, this has a good bit more to rise.
Increased by stop loss, which will hold in today's gains, for if there's any profit taking by the big boys in after hours!
My average buy is 95p, so I'm happy to hold. I'm impressed with this management team which has done a really good job. I'd stick with it as long as they do. Could be £1.50 per share on the horizon. As most of us know, `there's money in catching rats'. Even in markets downturn, catching rats is necessary. `Markets research' while shopping with my wife, I noticed R/kil products on the shelves of lots of shops, including Waitrose! When I see them, I'm quite proud to be a shareholder.
Thanks for that corlis, I will stay vigilant. I sold half my holding when they were up a while ago but will keep my eyes open.
Don't get sucked in here, we are on verge of a nice 5%-10% rise maybe up to results etc, then it may be time to get out as it would have run out of legs, for what its worth i will post again when im selling....stay alert on this share & don't switch off....lol
Hello All, I'm hoping for a positive set of results on the 28th Feb.The steady increase in its share price is hopefully an indication. We just might be rewarded with an announcement of an increase in the divi. GEMD is another I hold which has been rising steadily. I won't mention the shares I hold that have been aiming in the opposite direction.
This is ticking up nicely
A good run up, a few good buys coming in, is this climbing for the final results in the end of Feb? Or have I missed some news, I'm assuming that this will grow with the economy being a service industry, better set a stop loss as well.
Thanks Rob2, now I have my 115p, but do I wait to see if there is a divi rise, or cut and run?
Hello Mark 4660 I think it could be looking hopeful. Realistically I have no idea with this company it does well in the US and badly here. The management seems to have their finger on the pulse now . Remember this company sells products that everybody NEEDS so it should not be that difficult to be sucsessful. Here's hoping, we might even hear about a divi rise in the spring. GL all
Thanks for the info, does this mean we could see another increase? to perhaps 115p
MARK4660 The Post Stabilization Notice is the partner of the Pre-Stabilization Notice made on 27th September. RTO have just issued 350m euro of notes (commercial paper) repayable on 7th October 2021. These are tradable on the markets in a way similar to shares. The Pre notice gave the markets advance notice that, if necessary, the banks which were managing the issue on behalf of RTO would intervene in the market to support the price. Anyone thinking of immediately shorting the issue could get burned so potential traders have to be warned. There is a specific mechanism for this type of market support (price stabilization). The issue prospectus or accompanying documentation will have made it clear that the total amount of notes issued may be up to say 10% more than the 350 million. If the banks saw that the market price was falling then they would have shorted up to the additional 10% of the issue. If the price continued to drop then the banks would have bought the notes needed to close the short on the open market and hence supported the market price. On the other hand if the price rose, putting the banks at risk of a loss, then RTO would have issued the additional 10% of the notes to the banks at the issue price. The banks would then use these to close the short and so avoid any loss. The Post notice is simply saying that no market interventions have been made.
POST-STABILISATION ANNOUNCEMENT 10 October 2013 Merrill Lynch Intl Syndicate
I understand that Rentokils slimmed down structure has been rewarded with a 9% increase in profits. There is talk of insider movements with regard to some share buying but on the whole all is positive. it will be interesting to see if it reflects in the SP. Happy Rob
I heard there was something about RTO on the press review last night about this bid, anyone see that?
I'm in Logistics and surprised that City Link didn't drag things down further. If you read the hype about RTO the share price should be above 100p by now. Perhaps the delays in ditching City Link caused major investors to be cautious in the decision making process.
I feel confident that with the disposal of City Link things are going to happen here soon or heads will roll. Anyone else have an opinion?. Woolbrook
Rentokil has had a very sound history with 3 of their 4 divisions making profit the fourth CityLink having performed badly for years like a led weight. Now that it has gone we should see a positive effect of the SP.Their business in USA has been expanding steadily,their cor business in the UK is sound and been streamlined. Last year the company resumed their dividend payment . My thoughts are positive especially as I have held this stock for years in the hope of a turn around..
Sold with immediate effect.
nice day here, eh! CUP has Excellent result, CEO £1 M purchase, good entry point. dyor, IMHO
