Thanks T, don't know how i missed that!

@Bubbles, "Helen Parris herself in her earlier e-mail response ADMITTED that Buyers could be put off until the June update from the CEO."

Do you have a link to this mate please, i must have missed it somehow

Much appreciated

@NF, "It's no point arguing with each other when we're all hoping to survive the same damming event as we stick together through thick and thin and hope to get out of the current sinkhole that Jon Lewis put all longs in."

Well said, give that man a cigar!

JL is gone. AH is here. Or....'the King is dead, long live the King'

NF, may i ask, do you have access to L2 data?

personally i don't give a fig about the staff. ah needs to do a zuckerberg and have a 'year of efficiency'. zuck got shot of 11,000 (dead wood). sorted the problem and then the share price 5 bagged. $100 to $500

we just need to have patience pilgrims. ****ging the fella off after 7 weeks is stupid.

this bloke is so good the richest man on the plannet gave him a job.

but some of you dicks think you know better.

patience!

“I am excited about the opportunity for Capita and can already see a range of areas where we can unlock value.”

“We need to deliver a rapid reduction in our cost base”

“We have strong foundations and the opportunity for significant growth in the medium and longer-term.”

From FY Results. But it takes more than 6/7 weeks. He's hit the ground running. Told you what he's going to do. Bought some shares. What more do you want from the poor s*d?

Totally disagree with nearly all of that Bubb mate, sorry

Yer letting frustration cloud judgement. AH can not do more. Certainly he can't move the SP in 6/7 weeks.

To me, manipulation started with 'suckers rally' and continues.

Turnarounds take 12/18 months minimum. AH has done it twice now. So well in fact Bezos hired him at AWS.

Get a grip man, get a grip!

@Craig, well spotted

I wonder if more details will come out soon. The BUY rating is unchanged, but the TP will be interesting

Robin Speakman (Shore Cap) has been positive with a buy rating for some time.

Spot on there Crow

Bit more 'skin' than old Kipper here, but still £2k a penny now

Tempted, 14,675 @ 13.52p

Bottom drawer, take out in 12/18 months

@Trisor, "I have emailed IR demanding a truthful answer"

Good luck with that friend; you could be waiting a while there

NF, excellant. So does that mean shorters are not taking up these available shares? So therefore can we assume all shorters have their positions and are not increasing?

Shore Capital have in the past been very vocal and very positive on Capita.

The analysts name at SC is Robin Speakman. I have e mailed him asking if he intends to announce an update post FY Results. I will post here if i get a reply

robin.speakman@shorecap.co.uk

If Schroders & Schroder Inv Mgmnt are the same people then they alone hold 25% of Capita.

Same with Veritas; total 13.3%

Point is AH probably only has to speak to half a dozen or so Portfolio Managers (PM's) who between them own 70+% of the company. If he can convince those very few people that the future is rosy with him as CEO, that's got to be a plus for me.

Adds up to 102% tho, which baffles me.

Anyone got another sourse?

Excellant GOJIT, thanks

NF, thanks for that.

My point re shorts is that we ordinary punters do not get data of shorts under the 0.5%; only MW at 0.53%. But there could well be more under the treshold. I guess AH will be privvy to this info.

On another point, do any of you know of a list of major shareholders? Sure i read that 84% were in hands of ii....

@NF, watching the buy's & sell's on ADVFN is not really for me, nor trying to guess the SP at the end of the day. But if it helps you with your trading that's perfectly fine. I'm more focused on the longer term than the near. Bottom guessing is bl**dy hard. Having done my due dil i'm more interested on the new guy. He seems to have a nasty habbit of taking over a company and, within a few years, turns it around. I like that.

Anyway, question if i may. MW short is at, what, 0.53%. But could there be many others below the 0.5% threshold we don't know about? Thought you might have an opinion on this mate

Sounds like you 'gotinjustintime' then mate, eh....lol

@Terry, spot on mate

@JG & Trisor, fully alighned with that, 18 months

Looking at revenue is a blind alley. (no comparrison to CPI here)

I recall a company with lots of revenue. Traded in Europe and mainly US. Lots of cash through the doors. Too much debt tho. That company eventually entered C11. That company was called Cineworld

I am only making the case that Turnover/Revenue as a useful metric alone is pointless.

No comparrison to Capita

@Bubb, mate no, revenue means nothing.....look

Revenue (Reported)

2018 £3,918

2019 £3,678

2020 £3,324

2021 £3,182

2022 £3,014

As Alan Miltz said 'Revenue is vanity, profit is sanity'

@'others',

Think of the timeline. It was announced Adolfo Hernandez was to become the new CEO of Capita in July 2023. He will have been approached months before that; so that he could look at the 'books' so to speak, and reach a decision. Cyber attack was what, March(?) So, he was fully aware of the hack and the financial position that Capita was in, but still saw an oppertunity and took the job.

Here. Look. I like an analogy (as some will know)

The patient books their appointment with the specialist, spring of 2023, having been unwell for some time. Presents with certain really awful symptoms. Surgeon goes through the consultation process and takes time to come to a complete conclusion. Decides that with carefull surgery, an excellant medical team and 2 - 3 years for full recuperation the patient has an excellant chance of a full recovery. But initially the patient will need full ICU support.

Is that any easier for you miscreants to understand?

@JG,

I call it life support after 6 years of JL as CEO. Share price has dropped from c250p to 14p today.

That is a picture of abjecy disaster in my book.

RBC Capital have lowered their target price from 42p at the start of the year to 18p today. Not ideal in 8 weeks.

I'm waiting to hear what Robin Speakman at Shore Capital has to say. He is always positive on Capita.

No, i'll stick with 'life support', but firmly believe the patient can make a good recovery given time.
