Hi HF, I agree with you that good results may see a re-rating, hence trying to find out about an announcement. The fundementals of this company are good. cash generative and ROCE over 25%

Thats a set of results. And a serious move upwards. I hope it continues.

Does anyone know if we are due a trading statement or update anytime soon? I've been looking to see if one is scheduled, but I don't know if I'm looking in the right places!!

I would'nt be surprised if we see £9+ this week. There is a small article today in the Sunday Times. Its not saying anything new, but it''ll widen the audience for rpa. I hope i'm right, it would mean £2+ growth in about 2 to 3 weeks.

Thanks oldb. Nice to see just a small drop this morning. I'm looking forward to good results.

Is it going too far out on a limb to assume that if the technology is sorted for Ireland, then the Japan issue may have been overcome? I'm hoping that the ex-div drop will not be too bad as I think this company is much undervalued.

Cheers, really good point regarding dividends, Adn pay 7% ish with 1.4x cover, Sl. pay 5.2% ish with 2x cover ( I think!) therefore dividend wise from a Sl. holders' point of view this must be good for the divi considering there must be some good cost saving opportunities. My thinking is that from an income point of view this must be positive I suppose tomorrow morning will show what the markets think. Positive I hope!

One of the articles that I've read today (can't remember which, Sunday Times I think), is saying that the merger value of ADN is being based on fridays closing price. Apart from the fact that Adn has been moving up a bit this says to me that there is no real premium attached to the deal. Normally a take-over results in the buyers share price falling with the company being bought rising. I suppose if this is a merger then the normal scenario might not happen. I hold SL. but not Adn. I'm not sure if |I should be excited or worried!!! Or both Hopefully someone on this BB can put me right?

Does anyone know if they've managed to solve the Japan issue? It's been about a year since the delay and I reckon any good news on this will be great for the SP.
