The rise was too much today, after all they still have to post a loss at year end, and are only anticipating a return to profit 2010. A lot of work to do yet!

14.5 - 16 stabilising now.

Certainly didn't expect this today. Was expecting a slow recovery to say 40p over a year to 18 months, you never know with shares though, no matter how much research, charts etc. you do, the market never ceases to amaze!

Are on me........woopeeeee!

Just need to get a Board that the lending banks are happy with, a few more contracts and what a good share this will be. Should have topped up yesterday, but hey it's Easter, the sun will come out soon and I am back in profit. Happy days!

Yes, Barclays have reduced their shareholding by 150,000 shares, sorry I shouldn't have bothered posting. I was initially thinking they had increased their holdings. Either way it is no big deal, which reflects in the no change today.

Re DAV, yes can see what you mean....difficult times. ----------MaO--------

RNS out re 12% stake Full name of shareholder(s) BARCLAYS STOCKBROKERS LTD GERRARD INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT LTD BARCLAYS BANK PLC 5. Date of the transaction and date on which the threshold is crossed or reached: 29 MARCH 2010 6. Date on which issuer notified: 30 MARCH 2010 7. Threshold(s) that is/are crossed or reached: 12%

Only one trade - not such a bad thing at all for this share at the moment.

next year they make a profit of £7m...what then the share price...40p maybe

I hope Havelock have done the required credit checks and have assurances from LLoyds about payment, before they accepted the contracts ( lol)

I would have thought below 10p was a good price too. I bought at just over 10p thinking the same. We have discusssed "placement" on this BB previously if I remember rightly. As the share is a 10p share, then a share issue cannot be made for less. So as it stands, that ain't going to happen. Not sure what is likely to happen now. Ray Marine was a recent company where there were similar issues. wIth RAY there was a bit more transparency re debt / covenants / possible outcomes. With HVE there seems to be little news and now another double digit fall, I would have thought it was time for a company announcement about the future. Mean while I see o reason not to recommend HOLD

The MC is now only £3m, which leads me to think the market must now be having doubts about recovery. Let's see how it goes. Personally, I believe it will turnaround, so I am holding.

A Good bit of research, see attached article which confirms http://www.cnplus.co.uk/news/contracts/four-secure-a-national-place-on-360m-lloyds-tsb-framework/5215792.article. A good time to buy into this share for recovery IMO

I think for someone to buyt 250,000 shares, they would have done a bit of research. I think we are at the bottom now, and "the only way is up". Might just top up myself.

To stay above its issue price of 10p. This would mean, as far as I am aware they cannot do a rights issue below the issue price. So I am following the sp on this share with interest. I would think it is in everyone's interest that this share stays around the 11p plus mark. Let's see how it goes!

I have just reminded myself why I bought this share before at 18p. 2009 results will be out in April, but there is some information from interim from which will give an indication of what they are likely to be. Revenue will be down from 2008, but is still likely to be circa £100m. Net debt will be up (11.7m 2008) so £20m will not be a surprise. They still paid an interim divi of 1.2p, a mistake IMO, but brave anyway. So what will we likely see come April, Revenue down and net debt up, but still £100m of revenue which could be replicated in 2010. We all know that contracts will be difficult to find as UK PLC makes cutbacks, so this will reflect in the companies share price. But this is now oversold IMO, and well now worth buying / holding for eventual recovery. If this was a Football club, it would be held up as one of the most financially sound in the premiership!!!!!

I bought through HSBC. got 10.72p, they were last offering 10.7p, spread was as above both times. were you thinking Barclays were selling and using their share dealing company to offload?

Offered at 10.7p now

My 12k share buy is showing now as a sell. 10.72p has to have a lotta value, let's see how it goes. __________MaO________
