Hello All,
One thing to watch for
Yes dividend due in or around 23rd June so small dip would be expected.
Per the RNS of 24th March JP Morgan were locked out of dropping a lump of shares on the market for 90 days....this expires on June 22nd so they could (not guaranteed) drop a share placement on same day which if it happens will drop the price further....the good news is the price seems to recover quickly because this is a great share in a growing market with huge future potential....
Still it is worth anticipating events....

@Daz423,
My understanding is that it is the shortage of ground staff that is exacerbating the issue more than the shortage in cabin crew. Delays in getting off the ground are causing cabin crews to exceed their maximum permitted flying time (the clock does not stop when they are on the ground) this means that standby crews need to be called in but there are a finite number of these so you get the inevitible cancellations.
It is not Brexit (since Dublin, Amsterdam, etc are experiencing the same problem) but it may be made worse in a smaller pool of potential recruits.
Covid19 (the gift that keeps giving) is the main culprit - lots of peope re-evaluated their lives, including chosen careers, during the pandemic and many left, airport staff included, and many did not go back. Not sure if it was due to the 80 % salary being insufficient or if it was the sheer boredom of not being productive.

It is clear that airports and airlines are working hard to fix this and when that happens the share price will recover some more (a long journey back to pre-covid profitibility)

More than likely related to the US commitment to send guns that will be able to keep the russians at a distance > than their current armoury range.....not surprising that the surge started as soon as the announcement came...

Surely if they do not hand out dividends they then become a very cash rich company making them increasingly likely to be subject to a hostile takeover....I would say as long as they are generating the income (which they appear to be) then dividends should be paid if for no other reason than to reward the shareholders that are putting their faith in the company during potentially difficult times.

Hold for the divi and buy on any dips....

A pity the market do not seem to agree just yet....but they will in time

You don't present facts..
Russia started this conflict not Ukraine... you fail to grasp that Ukraine is responding to Russian aggression.
If Ukraine wished to be a threat to Russia they would never have given away all the nuclear arms they held.

"Zeelnsky is swayed more by the US than by the EU."
....Zelenskys opinion is being driven by the fact that Russia, a neighbouring country, snatched part of his country in 2014 and then decided to come back for the rest of the country in 2022...
The very fact that you are placing responsibility for the Ukraine war at the feet of the US and UK shows that you are biased..only one country is responsible for this war and that is Russia.

Apologies to VincentVega, - just realised it was not him made the 'not over £153' comment ....now it is me that is embarrassed especially since I cannot see a way to delete my incorrect post....

Hey VincentVega,
I hold a few Petrofac shares and have followed the ups and downs closely.
Within the past 12 months the share price briefly exceed £2 (not long after the SFO investigation finished but before Petrofac leaned on the shareholders to pay the fine!).
In those circumstances i would reflect on your 'lazy comment' and 'I'm genuinely embarassed for you.' statements, else the rest of us will be genuinely embarassed for you.....
DYOR and definitely GLA

I believe that they have until 20th May (someone correct me if i got this date wrong) to confirm their offer, if it is indeed coming.
I think per an RNS on Monday Ideagen had handed over the paperwork to allow the other potential suitor to do their due diligence.
It is possible that they could put a better bid on the table, or walk away leaving the current 3.50 offer on the table

Unlikely but definitely set to improve...You just need to look at the TUI results this morning to gauge the recovery in international tourism and travel....
Slow steady growth from here, the worst behind us.

For the benefit of all on this board:
Pullmylever has joined or at least created this profile in March 22
All posts relate to RR
All posts are negative and spouting about 50p share price
He has now joined my filter list as he is clearly a de-ramper with an agenda/axe to grind
Suggest other members of this board mute him using the filters

Message to pullmylever: so long di*khead

I originally bought in at 76p.....this company is in a vast and rapid growth market....I am super impressed with the results and will be holding long term.
I am constantly bewildered by how the markets react to results...go down when you expect a rise and vice versa

Not quite sure why AAF is dropping >4 % today when the majority of stocks are recovering after yesterdays almost universal drop.
Could it be pre-results jitters in the market or has some bad news leaked......either way we will know tomorrow.
I for one expect solid results followed by a recovery gain.
DYOR.

Better than I called a couple of weeks ago - so I am happy....
Question now is will a higher offer come in from the second interested party?

danielh....don't waste valuable energy trying to make sense...his purpose is to constantly de-ramp VOD (same as Porsche)....use the filter facility and ignore...works for me.

offer likely in region of £3.40.....only rough guesstimate...IMHO.

It looks like a few of the RMS relate to closing short positions so possible that price is being held low to assist.
Also nothing is formalised yet so until an actual offer is made it is only talk......
