Quite difficult for me to remember exactly what my trades were, but roughly:

- bought at 11p, sold at 18p

- bought at 15.5p, sold at 22p

- bought at 18.5p, sold at 27p

- bought at 24.5p, sold at 42p

- bought at 34p, sold at 32p (my first loss)

- bought at 23p, sold at 27p

- bought at 18p, sold at 15p (second loss)

- bought at 11p and still holding (for divi at least)

So, a couple of losses for me but the profits have far outweighed this. I have always sold out completely each time and bought back in. Its worked for me most times, but I do get the average down approach as this can also work well.

DYOR

That's going to take a LONG time imo. Always the option to average down and get out.

But liquidity in the stock has definitely improved since the share consolidation, so am pleased to see volumes of trades increasing. The spread has also narrowed at times, although does on occasions go to a really bad 10-15% at times, which is not good.

DYOR

I believe the share consolidation is already helping to create some positive movement in the spread and liquidity to trade the stock in the market, compared to before. Early days, but looks good imo.

DYOR

SP doesn't mean anything unless you are actually wanting to sell right now...

Agreed, all looking good and as expected. Nothing unexpected coming through the floorboards :)

DYOR

You mean 'on track' to achieve what it has set out to do? Isn't that the point?

What were you expecting, just out of interest?

DYOR

Dunkirk1017: You sound happy...I guess you are down on your investment judging by your tone?

DYOR

Hardly strong imo...

Well done Mr008 - you can pat yourself on the back :)

Good results. Slow and steady wins the race....

I believe the proposed RNS is already baked into the SP. So, I don't see any further increase coming as a result imo. Just a decrease if nothing is forthcoming.

DYOR

A matter of opinion, as is yours. I hope we get an RNS before close today.

'likely' - your source please?

Or is this purely speculation?

mud slinging....how nice :)

I agree, most on here are all worked up...so angry, emotional and irrational imo. Need to calm down a bit and switch off the screen.

DYOR

I agree, core business must be the focus now and I am happy that a clear line has been drawn under the 'spin offs' now.

Really solid set of results, increased revenues, ebitda & margins and no debt (which is fantastic news) and a dividend. My only question on the dividend is that its stated as a 'one off'. This is subjective, perhaps suggesting no more dividends are likely in the short-medium term - it would be good to get further clarity on where they see dividends going, particularly if they see the cash pile increasing -e.g. potential acquisitions etc.

DYOR

It does help, thank you for this :)

Who is RSP?

I don't think so...

DYOR

We are not f*.

You are just panicking.
