Factually distorted to suit his agenda.. what ever that may be, yet to see this poster point out the investment case here which is strong.
SERCO
- Is a Ftse company - largest institutional hold in srp is 5.7% no other fund holds over 3% - Cpi have 2 funds holding 18% each
- It has debt
- it has HIGHER REVENUE - marginal higher until track and trace boost.
- It has higher PROFIT -
- it's a DIVIDEND paying share
- It has LOWER share in issue - irrelevant mcap is what matters
- It's undergoing BUYBACKs atm
- it's a EXPANDING company through acquisitions
- Winning contracts close to BILLIONS and not like 63 million capita won over 5 years
- Way better REPUTATION than CAPITA hence lack of negative news in the media - debatable, track and trace was a complete disaster though they made ££,s from it.
CAPITA
- It's in FTSE ALL SHARE hence institution reducing exposure - funds added recently, huge institutional backing in Cpi.
- HIGH DEBT company yet to reduce - debt is reducing and will be debt free next year
- NO dividends - yet could resume 2023.
- HIGHER share in issue - completely irrelevant
- SHRINKING the business by selling portfolio division - streamlining and restructuring the business by selling none core arms of the business to focus on two core areas to generate cash and eliminate all debt.
- winning SMALLER contracts mainly with training and clerical work and call centres (booming area) - lots of large contracts won too.
- Doest have best of REPUTATION - Subjective point. Srp doesn’t either.
Srp is sat on an mcap of £2,005million Cpi just £400m
Cpi would need to rise 500% to match srp value
There is a lot more money to be made investing here than srp. I’ve held srp for 12 months previously it’s a very slow burner.
Restructuring is complete at Capita and they expect to be debt free and ready to resume a divi next year. I certainly believe there is a potential to make 250% return on investing in Cpi at 25p.
Ignore the noise from the traders desperately trying to play it up and down for a penny or two. Buy and hold for 12 months and reap a very nice return. That’s my plan and I believe why we have seen funds adding recently.
Aim2018 must be on double time Saturdays 21 posts on Cpi so far today with half the day to go.. Great effort but what’s the point, I’d def want paying good money to spend all my time Ona share I don’t hold.
Schroeder’s and co must be quaking in their boots at his attempts to murk up the waters.
Bit of coverage.

N Brown Group PLC - Manchester-based digital-only retailer of clothing and footwear - Pretax profit more than doubles to GBP19.2 million in the year ended February 28 from GBP9.2 million the year before. Explains this with a 32% lower impairment loss on customer receivables of GBP94.4 million compared to GBP139.1 million.
Also incurs lower finance costs and realises an exceptional gain of GBP4.8 million.
Annual revenue falls 1.8% to GBP715.7 million from GBP728.8 million. Blames this on lower Product and Financial Services revenue, due to business interruptions and adverse macroeconomic conditions that impacted customer behaviour. Plans to consider the reintroduction of a dividend this year.
Remains confident that its strategy will support the delivery of 7% product revenue growth with a 13% earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization margin in the medium term.

12 month change: down 55%

Looks like a sell order was executed in £10k batches dropping it down and taking out a few stops?
Took a few more at 32p. Happy to wait, just think it’s grossly undervalued. Should have bought sub 30 but was busy this morning.
