@Trisor It’s like that famous scene from the original Star Wars movie on here when Obi-Wan Kenobi describes the dangers of Mos Eisley spaceport to Luke Skywalker.

I refer to the same quote when describing Aim/Savage on LSE: “You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious".

@Dt1703 Don’t forget that the socialist left wing woke rag that printed the article will also have inflated the figures, especially as the story has come from General Secretary of the Public and Commercial Services Union, Fran Heathcote, who is renowned for telling porkies 🐷

When reading posts from @AimMaster2018 @Savage_KeyboardR - just remember they are here to be disruptive. They’re not invested!

Capita is 5% up on the week and results are incoming! Happy Thursday 😉

Just to give you some insight into the article shared by @Savage_KeyboardR from “toilet paper” publication, The Register. The article quotes PCS General Secretary who is widely despised by both the left and the right for being a troublemaker and, like our resident clowns, is a liar!

Heathcote, representing the Left Unity faction, faces significant opposition from the Broad Left Network. Critics within this group have accused her and other leaders of "paralysis" and "sabotaging" industrial campaigns, specifically regarding pay and pensions.

During her 2023 election as General Secretary—the first woman to hold the post—the campaign was described as "divisive" and "negative," with opponents making allegations of dishonesty against her leadership.

Some members and external critics, such as the Socialist Worker, have described her leadership's approach to strikes as "failed" or "limited," arguing that she has not escalated action sufficiently to win major concessions.

@Trenners enjoy your beer 🍺 Just bread and water for the twins in their telephone box unless they can drum up some business 🤡 🤡

I’ve always enjoyed this song but have you ever wondered what the lyrics refer to?

“The “clowns” in the title are not circus clowns but rather a theatre expression meaning "if the show isn't going well, let's send in the jesters/fools”. In other words, "let's distract the audience”. It seems relevant today of all days 😉😂🤡🤡

Isn't it rich?

Aren't we a pair?

Me here at last on the ground

You in mid-air.

Send in the clowns

Isn't it bliss?

Don't you approve?

One who keeps tearing around,

One who can't move.

Where are the clowns?

Send in the clowns.

Just when I stopped opening doors,

Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours.

Making my entrance again with my usual flair.

Sure of my lines.

No one is there

Don't you love farce?

My fault I fear.

I thought that you'd want what I want,

Sorry my dear.

But where are the clowns?

There ought to be clowns.

Quick send in the clowns.

What a surprise.

Who could foresee?

I've come to feel about you what you felt about me.

Why only now when I see that you've drifted away?

What a surprise, what a cliché.

Isn't it rich, isn't it queer,

Losing my timing this late in my career?

And where are the clowns?

Quick send in the clowns.

Don't bother they're here.

Shore Capital rates Capita as a Buy and £5.30 as a fair value estimate! That is 50% higher than the current SP.

“We thought that could ultimately justify a share price up to c.£5.55–£7.15 (65%–113% above current levels). We have a Buy rating (our earlier note assessed a £5.30 fair value at this point).”

@LameTwatster Are you actually still trying to be relevant here? Nobody cares about you 🤡

@Trisor Great effort today. Love the group mentality and a bit of teamwork 😉

The tide has certainly turned @Trisor and the clowns are about to be left stranded on their sunbeds

I hope you are getting your fingers burnt today Aim and Savage 🔥 🤡 🤡

@Simpiles The 3rd major contract win with many more to come. My belief is that the excellent CSPS recovery process may prove to be extremely beneficial to Capita. A fantastic case study in how CPI can transform a failing service. There is no better advert than this when tendering for new contracts ☺️

@AimMaster2018 That makes sense now. So you’re basically getting 20p a suck in your local phone box, now that the sunbed shop has closed? That must be tough in the old knees?

Shut up @daltry, you wet wipe! £37 million is a large sum of money and every contract increases the profitability and FCF. Clearly you know nothing about how a business runs?

Capita plc (“Capita”) today announces that it has been selected to deliver the Synergy Business Process Services contract.

As part of the new contract, the company will deliver tech-enabled back-office services for public servants across four major UK government departments: the Department for Work and Pensions, Ministry of Justice, Home Office, and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.

Capita will deliver a suite of services including HR, payroll, recruitment, finance, procurement, and service desk support, underpinned by technologies delivered with hyperscalers and partners.

The contract is expected to commence in phased tranches, beginning March 2026 and will run for seven years, with the option of three one-year extensions. It is worth £370 million over this 10-year period.

ENDS

Notes to editors: The IFRS 15 transaction price (order book value) is £370 million over 10 years (including all extension periods) which excludes additional change and expansion services expected over the term of the contract.

@Savage_KeyboardR 🙄😎

“AimMaster2018 - I did say I reckoned the SP here should head towards ~£2.87p and I think that's where it'll end up at in due course tbh - DYOR”

FTSE getting battered, Dow Jones getting battered, but Capita holding strong. What does that tell you? 😎🥳

Stay focussed LTHs and ignore the white noise! Short term pain, long term gain 👌 🚀
