The re-organisation in the Uk seem well underway and the major customers seem to be OK. The Money from Marie must be about to be in the bank. So interest payments will reduce and new equipment will also reduce costs. Another quarter end is just about upon us - 15th October? - Is Profit forecast? Why is the SP drifting about? It should be in a steady and sure climb. Whats the news guys?
Fusion boy must be diappointed to have rushed to get in at 29p. This share was tipped to do well and for ages we only saw buyers and virtually no sellers. There was an attempt at a take over. Does anyone remember why they favoured FIF? Have you all forgotten? This looks like a bargain at these prices but still noone buys- What am missing? Lets have some comments and analysis from those in the know.
Look forward to an increase on new of efficient production at minsterley. NEW Subject Anyone know anything about FIF evrybody seems to buy and nobody seems to sell them - What are they all waiting for? Take over? Dividend? Have a good week end
Hi Varky The other guys in on UNIQ seem to divide into two types 1 - Gamble for a small profit frequently over a few days and 2 - Stick with it for the real end game - A good long lasting investment (3 - there is probably a third set of mid term investors also.) The balance between these is what makes the share go up and down in waves. It takes courage to hold on so some quite rightly drop out and others buy in for the longer term. I feel this share is set for an upand down growth pattern which will smooth out to a gentle climb thats where my money is. Where yours is is your risk and your risk only. Personally I back the management they've done a good job so far and that means staying. Its just so difficult to find good situations to place your money if you do sell out, If your nervous play the footsy bueven that has risk.
Its a good thing that the sale of Marie was ratified. Uniq has much to do with the money from that sale and the sale of the other Northern Europe businesses. which will make money for the shareholders. My only worry might just arise from a reverse take over of a cash rich business by one of the less cash rich food busineses. That needs to be defended against strongly and I would not like to see uniq sold for much less than £2.00 in that case - think about it! It might be better for all to take over the potential bidder(s).
1 - The proceeds from selling Marie are worth plus or minus 53p per share. 2 - It's a busy and ever more efficient set of UK manufacturing units 3 - They are going to do well this year - more sales and less cost 4 - There are more European businesses to sell Hold steady keep the faith for me this will continue up to 70 plus easily but its your money your risk which ever way you jump. I'm waiting holding on for dividends to be restored!!!
Hi RayFan et al, There's a huge amount of info hidden away in this pdf circular to share holders http://www.uniq.com/news/press-releases/posting-of-circular-notice-of-general-meeting/Circular%20re%20Disposal%20of%20French%20Business%2023.7.09.pdf Happy reading many of the risks seem covered - But I'm no expert!
I 'm excited waiting for the resuts at the end of July. It seems that so much has been done to reduce costs, increase sales, increase production efficiency and that they are busy at the factory level. Now the Marie deal is firmed up at £62M ie 53p per share surely the big punters can see that they should be in on one of the best and help reward the investors that have kept the faith.
Not so sure about the 25000 share guys they seem to come and go like market makers! Oh well I am in for the Long haul. started buying these at 4.7!!! :>). Dinky's comments do not mention the pension bit But I guess that really of no consequence on the balance sheet so fly fishers 30 is low lets go for 60p.
I am still hopeful that we will see a growing price throughthe years results come in REVIEW Quoted below: - Investec research note with target price of 31p... Management remains committed to improving the performance of the group and having now concluded banking arrangements can turn their full attention to stemming losses and improving cash flow. It is likely we will see some changes to group structure over the coming year as a result. Forecasting 2009 remains difficult as much depends on what actions are taken, but we have assumed some results will be apparent during the year in our (also unchanged) EBIT forecast of £4m profit. However, until we have greater clarity on these actions, and the timing of the benefits, we retain our Hold recommendation and place our target price under review. We expect to see more detail at the time of the results in March. The market’s concerns over the group’s financial situation should be at least partly alleviated by the new banking facility. In the medium term, we believe there is value in Uniq and the management team now has greater time and resource to work to release this. Hold 12.75p Potential upside Under Review 143% Target price Under Review 31p http://www.advfn.com/cmn/fbb/thread.php3?id=9705076&from=310
Young's are an interesting Company who really know fish and will wish to make good use of the new asset. I feel onwards and upwards are two key words for UNIQ. Early April will give us the next quarter's results. I guess you have mid term blues. Wheras like many others with a longer term view who have bought along the upward path I am waiting for the next chapter in success!
Gut feel is upwards and ... They beat the Ftse today!
Fair results from tesco and other super markets could suggest that these guys will come though with the cream! looking forward the 24 th jan results. Whats been the effect of the new equipment and other savings. will these come through this year?
Looks like some serious buying today so Cheap or Not they seem to have supporters, - Any thoughts on the situation?
