JEFFERIES RAISES SPIRENT PRICE TARGET TO 340 (330) PENCE - 'BUY'
https://www.lse.co.uk/news/SPT/london-broker-ratings-capital-and-counties-and-shaftesbury-get-upgrades-qhrqx6cykbzezus.html
This is what I was hoping for, all on track -- all looking good here
https://www.lse.co.uk/news/SPT/spirent-communications-backs-fy-expectations-r2xllr5sa3g1e61.html
(Sharecast News) - Spirent Communications backed its full-year expectations on Thursday following "continued momentum" in the third quarter.
In an update for the period from 1 July to 30 September, the company said it secured several key strategic wins. For the nine months to the end of September, order intake growth was 13%, with revenue growth of 7%. Spirent said 5G continues to be a strong driver of growth in demand across its solution portfolio.
"We have been managing the growing global supply chain challenges well and consistent with many industries, are seeing more component cost rises which we are responding to with price increases," it said.
The company's expectations for the full year remain unchanged and in line with market consensus for revenue of $568m and adjusted operating profit $115m.
Chief executive officer Eric Updyke said: "We are continuing to grow in our key focus areas, such as lab to live assurance and driving our services offerings, whilst carefully managing ongoing supply chain disruption. The cyclicality in the business continues to reduce as we win more multi-year work and build sustainable revenues.
"Overall, we are on track to show full year progress in 2021 with, as in previous years, trading performance weighted to the second half of the year and to the final quarter. Whilst supply chain management has become more challenging, our expectations for the full year remain unchanged."
All good and adding on weakness.
So, cost base rising, with a healthy growth in business.
I predicted this about 6 months ago on here, at the last update, the chip shortage in key components is causing real headaches globally.
Have to see what that line does to market sentiment. At least chip shortages can be resolved, with decent business growth from SPT it seems still
I’m positive too Mary. Where do we see SPT in 5 years? I can see it as a definite acquisition target at some stage…
I haven’t set a price target for a change on this, quite like the thought of my cash growing with the company. 5G probably has another 5 years before it is the groundbreaking, ubiquitous tech we hope it can be. Just hoping at some stage we get off the Escalator and jump onto an elevator to the 55th floor!
Added another 4k so my bias is on the upside, will add again on any falls.
GL tomorrow to £3 and beyond.
So, we reckon we are going to resume our March onwards and upwards, or will SPT will re-trench with her update tomorrow?
Good luck all, pretty heavily invested here and see it as a great company to be involved in for the future!
Our work is using them to trial GPS spoof technology too... They are pretty good at what they do from what I am hearing.

Technical collaboration with GMV provides simulation testing solution for early adopters
PAIGNTON, U.K., November 09, 2021--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Spirent Communications plc (LSE:SPT), the world leader in global navigation satellite system (GNSS) testing and assurance solutions, today announced the launch of the industry’s first commercially available simulation test solution for the Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS), via a beta interface implementation based on HAS ICD version 1.2. During the development of the solution, Spirent collaborated with GMV, a leader in cutting-edge GNSS high-accuracy technologies.
Galileo HAS will provide free-of-charge high-accuracy Precise Point Positioning corrections through the Galileo E6-B signal, with accuracy under two decimeters, offering real-time improved user positioning performance. Developers need to be able test their devices against this new service to ensure they can optimally capture the emerging capability when it becomes available. By integrating HAS simulation and capabilities, Spirent’s latest simulation solution enables customers to utilize and incorporate Galileo HAS as early as possible.
In February 2021, the European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) awarded GMV with the contract for the implementation of the Galileo High Accuracy Data Generator (HADG), which will be the facility in charge of generating the high-accuracy corrections data to enable the provision of HAS. Spirent’s collaboration with GMV will prove a key element in the early adoption of the service.
"The high accuracy, feature richness and flexibility of Spirent’s simulator platforms provides an ideal foundation for the testing of innovative new Galileo services such as our recent Galileo HAS capability," said David Calle, Section Head of Advance GNSS Services at GMV´s aerospace sector.
Jan Ackermann, Spirent’s Director of Product Line Management said: "The high level of expertise and in-depth understanding of Galileo HAS within GMV provided important guidance as we implemented HAS on our simulation platform. This enabled us to again be the first in the industry to offer a commercial solution to simulate and test these important new capabilities."

I'm sure the market makers will try and shake a few more shares out before 11th November.....
Holding mine for 300p +

Trading Statement due on 11/11
Heading back to £3 again, nice pick ups at 286 276 & 266.
Just doubled up my holding, hope good vibes pay off on this one.......
Canaccord Genuity upped target from 280p to 320p on 13th Oct 2021
Liberum Capital and Numis last updates both 310p
Berenberg upped their target on 25th August to 430p.
Bought in yesterday, fed up with gold/mining stocks....
tranche 2 tucked away
Glad to see it coming back a bit so I can start rebuilding. Tranche 1 tucked away.
Back towards low again, if there is a market sell off I will be grabbing all I can sub 230p
They were probably planning how to drag SP back to 280 haha
08:05 and still no trading… anyone know why? I
Disappointing to have stalled sub £3, i saw a spike to 314 on my alerts and thought here goes. Nice low average and adding on dips around 260 270 but for me a hold nit an add at £3. Nice low average cost so holding and top slicing for now. Expect £4 in 2022.

Only thing that concerns me is the stock of high end silicon is going to be constrained for at least another 12 months. Mid/Long term this is at least a double bagger in my mind.
Their foray into GPS spoofing research has A LOT of people interested at a government and military level too.
Plenty to like here at the moment. My third biggest holding behind BP and shell at roughly 15% of pot.
This is a much more restrained room than a lot on LSE... I've held for a few months now and happy with its tick up and up. It's at it's highest price it's been at but can it sustain this and keep going...is there more news in the pipeline but I'm guessing there will be a steady trickle of new customers for 5G which I am happy with. A nice share below the radar of the 5% traders
Well held, patience pays Mr Beaky. Fainter hearts would have relaised unnecessary losses and had post sale regret.
Just breaking £3 and then the floodgates will open on the upside.
