I think it is just good business to buy the building - the finance director is a sharp cookie. Can’t think it makes any difference re a take over but I think it does suggest continued growth and optimism (measured as ever) - we will see shortly!
Agree - implies steady as she goes growth - key update coming up
Yes so well run - they have sight of all the components of their business - a company I have always actually enjoyed being part of and intend to stay part of for many years to come
Sadly the UK with its new government has some pain to go through before its ministers learn it takes time to transition (as we must) but to do so too quickly will impoverish its citizens leading to all sorts of other problems including, potentially, civil unrest.
That is absolutely right. They are only spending some of the sale proceeds on buying back cheap shares which is an excellent use of capital, paying off debt and no doubt some support for their existing businesses
I think the new ceo has done an excellent job so far. Made an excellent start in turning this behemoth around
Me neither - my biggest and longest held holding
When management, workforce, product and demand all align it was indeed only a matter of time
Such an unusual share for aim
Well said Covgas - lth here and patient as you like! Should be getting close to something significant here if they maintain rate of current growth

Yes totally agree with you - EG it is and maybe some upside re wressle if they get a move on
Country will pay the price for political approach to oil and gas industry during period when renewables are no where near ready and the world so dangerous a place
Let’s face it does not take a genius to work out the sp can’t go any lower - ffs it is at .85p - I bought years ago at 8p * I am entitled to be a deramper - trust me, it is not something I enjoy
So obviously it can only go a tad higher - perhaps to .95 or the dizzy heights of 1.10p. They had the chance with wressle to make us all some money and blew it
So frustrating - the sp is stuck on 61p - just don't understand given years of growth - guess they need to transition into true profitability not EBITA profitability but even so SP should be at £1 given all they have achieved - what is holding it back?
I totally agree with everything you say and am in exactly the same position. Do something for shareholders for a change and buy back shares at this horrific price

Good salaries etc, funded trips and lifestyle whilst we throw away our savings
