0.90 - 1p now

+ 31%! Maybe been put up for sale? Got some at 0.98p

Moving...fast!

Excellent news - sends out the right signal

I noticed the CRAW holdings on my employer portfolios are virtually nil now so Schroders must have sold down quite a bit recently? Hopefully the shares will re-rate once they are out of the equation?

Yes good news. I got in at 6.15p late last week as the share price looked oversold...lets hope we see 10p again soon

I don't think Chipf commens were directed at you...note that dispite the sells the share price continues to re-rate back towards 3p. If there something in the pipeline?

Thanks I do appreciate your balanced thoughts especially having worked there! As you say, best for a very gradual upward trend over the next year reflecting (hopefully) the improving trading. Longer term the debt has to be renewed and an equity issue cannot be ruled out - probably around the same time the settlement figures are confirmed. Cleaning up the balance sheet at some point will be another step forward and personally feel if the company was going to go bust it would have happened by now... the BOD just need to be more proactive in adapting to the changing regulatory environment and consider what options are available in order to come out the other side of this depression (10 years of zero growth 2008-2018 imo) leaner and stronger

Two final points 1) the share price did hit 4.24p the only crazy week when half the shares were traded so 4-5p might be the norm by this time next year (might) 2) winter - the bad weather normally is in Jan/Feb but this year it started in November with extreme flooding nationwide and now snow which is unusual for December - this can only help HHR but agree it might not be material. I also agree that newbies ramping the shares might be pump and dump merchants - only time will tell. What made you buy back in at 1.2p? I presume you lost quite heavily over the years? I also agree Ward should have been gone straight after the accounting errors imo but I did attend the AGM and was very impressed with the Chairman. Sorry maybe even I got a bit carried away with the ramping so will tone it down and my point about mentioning the low price due to the trend line... well trend lines can be broken but sentiment changing is the key.

S/b I do recall you were an employee of HHR. It's good to know you can still discuss how the company is doing - hopefully not too bad at the moment? (considering)

Its not been me doing the "mindless ramping" this week! I agree talk of double figures is way off the mark until several reporting periods of continued recovery are in place and no one has a clue outside HHR what the settlement figures will be. BTW I am not a premium member and do have a memory problem so sorry if I cannot go back to read all your previous comments. Why did I sell down this week? Well because HHR was over half of my SIPP holding and I was getting slightly edgy. I have sold about 40% and invested in about a dozen extra shares and feel more comfortable with my holding now. Sorry I do not recall you were an employee here so will always have an interest in this share whether invested or not but the impression I got yesterday that you would rather see the share price flatline especially considering the recent sp trend and renewed interest here. I live near Bath and really hope this company turns itself around and the share price gradually recovers and the fact the sp bounced back off 1.5p the other week suggests for the foreseeable future the 1p days are behind us. Re weather comment - I am sure HHR would rather have an icy cold snow covered winter than a mild dry winter??

My average is 1.4p and I have reduced down this week selling at 2.6p so sorry "I love this share" stands. Still have several million and will buy on weakness

To be fair Chipf has been on this thread for quite some time and I think is/was invested here once. Everyone is entitled to their view but to suggest this share would never recover or the share price would forever stay at 1p is presuming that the management would never get to grip with the business model etc. Obviously still a lot of work to do but I was very impressed with the new CEO who in one year has built up better relations with the insurers, set up new protocols, ensured new claims are settled within 90 days, tied up new contracts with BBC and Lookers, cut costs further and is proactively looking at new tie ups ahead of regulation changes next year. I think the "new" BOD need to be given a chance and it appears the early signs are positive with more developments to come. I rather be in than out atm. Oh, and it is the key trading period and the weather is dire and soon to be nationwide and there is no end in sight! Brilliant for Helphire!

BTW have you looked at the volume the last month? PIs have piled in, there is a nw 3% holder (I never quite got there) and the share price bottomed at 1.5p two weeks ago and has shot back up. It should be 3-4p at the moment imo after that great IMS statement (a trading profit compared to a SUBSTANTIAL loss in the same period last year) and also it is only Ward that has shares here! No other director will be "laughing all the way to the bank" because due to market sensitive date relating to Autofocus etc they have not been able to pay! I bet they are actually crying all the way to the bank because of market regulations stopping them buying! Once Autofocus is settled mid way though next year I expect the directors to pile in and set up new options - presuming HHR is not taken over or merged with another company first. LOL I am loving this share!

Just a bit jealous of those who got in and/or averaged down at 0.80p and have been selling or top slicing at a far higher level the last week? Never mind - I have made a killing and others too. Talk of 10p plus is way off the mark atm but not impossible on any substantial Autofocus payday and a very bad winter and margin growth and hire day growth and falling interest rates and more into an ABS model and longer term contracts on better margins and less PI referrals but on better terms and lower debt and declining debtor days and the fact the share price was 17p last year SO WHY SO FAR FLETCHED?

Yes I have made a number of circ 1,000 share buys this week but the larger ones today may have been Radmat imo

Got in this morning at 2.91p so will hold for developments (also sty at 6.15p seems too cheap now)

Where is this taken from please? The Daily Mail?

Well I am surprised about sty as you were very bullish and held a decent holding for a long time..did u get impatience? Yes sty is just one of many shares at 52 week lows but its picking the ones that will recover quicker than the others. TBH not sure about CRAW yet but I note the low market value and potential for sharp market movements on any decent volume. Since there is a trading statement due in January I better make my mind up soon

TBH the spread is never what is shown so might dip my toe in later this month. BTW are you (still) in STY or do I have the wrong Chris?
