Not in my view - more upside to come I think.

It actually makes no sense at all given that Sterling has appreciated strongly against the dollar today, and this Company has significant dollar revenues. I do agree that it is hugely undervalued though!

You wouldn't want to be short on a day like this, eh.....? :-)

Sad.......but true.

...on no news and only average volume. UK midcap investing is certainly tricky at the moment!

...30p today in case anyone was wondering.

Not for me - I bought gold around the 1250 level over a year ago, both as a Brexit hedge ($ exposure)and a hedge against the fact that we have without doubt the worst politicians gloablly in history, and there's a serious risk of them causing the world to go to s***. I believe both these theses remain valid, so I'm staying long for now!!

Yep, great results indeed. They managed to hold sales flat depite the same quarter last year having 2 months of non-esma regulation trading. Next quarter, the comparison will have all 3 months under new regs, and the comparison should look excellent - this was always be the case as the comparables became easier. No reason to expect that costs have risen and hence continued FCF generation, and a well covered divvy giving a c7% yield. Expecting a recovery back towards £8 by year end.

Tyche - possibly the worst case of sour grapes I've ever seen. Sure you understand the industry, but you don't understand Company balance sheets and the effects of leverage. You were repeatedly told by me and others that the debt would eat the equity holders for braekfast, but you sought to argue with HITS over insignificant tecnicalities.

Buko - 'Played by Mattthebrave'? I think you'll find that people on this board were 'played' by the constant bulls. All I ever said was beware, which turned out to be very sound advice. Shame you didn't take it, eh?

Hi Azurite - yep, still a holder of HCM through the recent rocky ride. I've been in since 2010, so still a 10 bagger for me, but last year still a bit painful!! Sorry for off-topic post to the rest of the Board!!

I've been in this a couple of years - Nice stock. Income, NAV and Divvy growing steadily. However, now at a 10% premium to Nav, and the divvy down at 3.6%. Still good holding for the long term, but I wouldn't be adding here.

rum - they've alreadly lined up JP Jenkins to do this. Read the RNS, it's all there.

...be very wary of 'time for a top-up' advice from GCCRa - he has form on this I'm afraid. Been giving the same advice on Avanti Comms for over 2 years starting at a price ove 200p. Last day of trading on AIM today, with investors getting 0.2p as they finally exit. Funnily enough, we haven't heard from him since the bad news arrived........

Cheers HITs - you've been the voice of reason here, and its a shame that many sought to decry you rather than thinking through, and appreciating what you had to say. Good luck to you and your investments, and perhaps we'll meet again on another board...........

GCCRa - what did you sell yours for mate? Come on fella, where did you go? This Board just isn't the same without your mindless ramping, and I for one am saddened by its abscence.......:-(

The final little sting in the tail!! Unvbelieveable Robbie.

...GCCRa, Whatsoccurring and the rest of the brain trust. Now I wonder why that is.......? :-)

£270 used to get you a 100 shares or less not so long ago. Now it get's you about 90,000, LOL. That said, there are quite a lot more shares in issue these days as well!!

...resolution passed as expected. 17th the last day of trading. Get out whilst you can folks!!

Ok, let's try that again without the typos ;-)
Yes this Board certainly had it's cast of characters. GCC, posting when he managed to evade the nurses at the home for the stupidly insane; Brad and his increasingly bizarre and random musings; Tyche for his strange need to argue points of no relevance to the share price; General George, who confidently, and correctly , predicted the first (of a few) D4E swaps; The deeply unpleasant Whatsocurring who seemed to have an unhealthy focus on what he called 'wrist merchants'. And of course, the harbinger of a lady of enourmous giirth who sings, South Street. And finally HITs, your good self, easily the best informed and most sensible poster on the Board who still attracted a dgeree of abuse, but weathred it with excellent grace. What a laugh it's been - well, for those of us who sold a few years back anyway...;-))
