I love this company - the only non-wobbly bit of my portfolio. It even rewards me with an unexpected rise today. 20p on the cards now.

I like the RNS so have topped up at 3.8p.

500,000 buy at 3.75 pushes us nearer 4p - this week?

Hi there. I'm afraid I got totally spooked last week and sold all my FOUR shares. It was one of 2 companies I was in that still had a healthy profit. With retrospect I think I made a mistake because it has been stable through all the chaos which is a great sign. Once the dust settles (Greece/UK Government) I aim to buy back in for all the reasons I have posted in the last year - namely good and progressive dividend, well run company and most profits made in the US which seems to be righting itself much faster than here. There's also the plunging pound which should help profits (dollar-based ones) surge. I think you've made a wise choice investing here - good luck and I hope to join in soon.

Up 7.5% so far this week - Big divi coming in on Thursday - wonderful stuff!!

Hi, Welcome to Lonely City!!! 4imprint make the little giveaways that you see on company trade stands at exhibitions etc. They do a lot of trade in the US and Europe. While only a small company with relatively modest profits they are well run, have a low gearing and progressive dividend policy yielding around 8% (despite the recent SP rise). I first had some in 2004, sold those in 2005 then got back in 18 months ago. My SP average is £1.40. I'm going to hold medium-long with a £4 target SP. Of course nothing is without risks - the SP dipped to the 80p's last year and a correction in the markets would obviously send them down, but, if you're looking for a solid yielder with potential 300% SP upside then it should be considered.

£2 within weeks at this rate - still a great yield and nobody has come to the party?! This is now my major shareholding and was touted to reach £6+ a couple of years back. It's rare to come across a share that has both great SP growth potential and high yield - maybe I'm missing something sinister but I can't see it?

All buys today at 2.91-3.00 range. These are tetering on the brink of another mark up to 3p plus. Could hit the hallowed 7p within months.

I have a horrible average SP in these (15p) and although tempted to average down again I can't help but worry over their £100+ million debt pile. They'll have to go some just to service that debt over the next few years. GLA but at this stage I'm sitting on the sidelines.

WOW - great rise today and since the results. I was in at 1.70 and need to hold firm to realise 4p plus. I for quick profit but am wondering if this could be a good med-long. Opinions?

I've been watching these for a few months now and figured today was a great time to enter (£1.50). I work in the NHS and know that demand can only go up and up. I'm in mid-long hoping to see £3 in the next 2 years. GLA

Another tick up due, anytime.

It seems like these have caught nobody elses imagination. I'm pleased with the progress since last year. Looks like the divi is safe at over 8% yield. Since there are relatively few shares in circulation the price leaps rather than creeps. I will probably top up on future dips this year. My target is now £2 in the next year because eventually people are going to catch on. Ex div 24th so SP should tick up next week. Next divi 8.5p/share (13.5p/2010). P/E 6. EPS 24p.

Looked like this was due a tick up after last fridays buys - nice and steady she goes!!

Hi Shifty, I think the dip was just following the market down generally - plus the absence of news. Rocky road ahead no doubt but I'm sure we're on a winner here long term. Maybe 16p is the bottom now - which is better than 12p last year.

After the aquisition on Feb 2nd and progressive dividend policy these are yielding >6% on a very modest P:E. I did sell some at 25p and 19p but have just topped up at 17.5p - I think this could be a bargain SP in months/years ahead.

Hi. Bought in today at 1.70 - couldn't pontificate any longer. I was very encouraged by those director buys too. Nice rise too post buying - hopefully will be sustained all the way to 3p!!!

Hi, I'm considering investing here. All looks good on paper - any insight/opinion about this company would be gratefully read.

Hi, I'm interested in investing here. Can someone enlighten me on the interim financials - esp the Debt for Equity swap. How solvent is this company? Thanks.

21p could still be a good entry point here - it's still below my average.
