I love it when mystic Phil predicts sub 9p....it always goes in the opposite direction :-)))
Juicy Saudi news ahoy..... GLA and good weekend

I get that peeps don't like being told what to post but please for the love of God let's not descend into incessant bickering and willy waving as we often seem to when certain posters are around. Love him or loathe him, DHC is quite transparent and at least puts in the time to post some useful stuff in amongst the rampy stuff. More annoying, I would suggest are the hoards of negative ninnies with an agenda.
I think we should all (if invested) be a little optimistic at the prospect of getting in one of the KSA contracts up for grabs.
With TEU numbers at least 2 or 3 times Tema, the ports up for grabs would be our largest MSC by a margin, and PFs cheeky little grin when broaching the KSA question in recent interviews is quite telling. We are clearly in the running I would say, whether we get the nod will no doubt become apparent before too long. GLA

Can we have that in writing please :-)

It's times like this we should be glad Foxy is not around, he'd have a field day with a question like that :-)
As an investor I guess you have done some due diligence. Reading past RNSs you will discover there have been a few MSCs in recent years that have been 'promised' and are yet to land. Notably Iranian airport scuppered by sanctions and African airport deal that is apparently also still live and awaiting some 'restructuring' for want of a better term before commencement.
FWIW, I am in agreement that SP should be higher, as there is far more going on now with Covid related business going great guns and real prospect of some good business being closed in Saudi before too long. As I'm sure you know, they appear to be at an inflection point and should not now have the need to raise to keep the lights on and with revenues up again this year, including 'fast cash' with tech sales the cash position is comfortable. With Tema volumes touted to possibly double by year end, record revenues are nailed on again in the coming year. The cherry on the cake to kick this to the next level would be a juicy new MSC, which PF seems confident (as always) is not too far away. Patience will be rewarded I'm sure and as Aiming' noted recently, at least WSG are not a dodgy RNS away from disaster a la INTU

Whilst I agree whole heartedly with your final sentiment, the irony is not lost that it comes from a man who (albeit openly) trades anything and everything on AIM. So are you suggesting you'll turn over a new leaf?

Just saw an article on the news about the free face masks being handed out at some train stations, they made the point that this will be a temporary arrangement, so perhaps the door is open for WSG to do a deal with some of the major rail networks. Fines of £60 will be doled out for non compliance, so those without will be 'happy' to pay a fiver to grab a mask if they don't have one to hand. Hopefully more info on this opportunity at the AGM

The only overtly negative comment I've seen is from someone who posted that they sold out a few weeks back. No surprise there then (rolling eyes emoji).
As you suggest, no such thing as bad publicity. As well as new business and general awareness, no doubt a few new PIs will be made aware that WSG are on the up. FOMO should start to kick in as we approach the AGM on the 25th, let's hope we see a continuation of the last couple of trading days rises... GLA

Very succinct and on point... that should bring in some new business for sure as we come out of lockdown and get back to work..... go Westies :-)))

Beat me to the copy paste Gibbo!
New website looks slick too...

Nice :-)

Spoil sports :-)
Only 10 days until the AGM, they'll have to start playing ball then, I'm sure there'll be a hint of a few million in the coffers at least to budge the SP a little

A couple more international departures again today. A shame the airport website/page that was used previously as a reference for passenger nos. seems to be down at the mo...

Initial Q1 revenue figs that included some early Covid related sales were already 22% up on the previous year. Heavy hints have been made since that things have not tailed off on the Covid related side of the business in recent months and several high profile deals have been announced (major investment bank and multiple NFA teams Stateside). As others have guesstimated H1 revenue is looking like it may be approaching full year revenue posted for 2019. Not too shabby in the current climate and the envy of the vast majority of businesses that will be struggling to survive, let alone post record profits.
It seems there are too many too quick to sling mud and criticise.
To post these numbers with just business in hand is quite impressive. If we land one or two of the larger opportunities being negotiated, this will take us to multiples of current SP in a flash. The manic depressives will point to the bad luck and barren last few years. However, we have IMO, an ever increasing likelihood of landing another MSC, as time passes and we come out of lockdown. We now have a very competent team of professionals in place to implement PF's vision and I am hopeful for an MSC or two sometime in H2 to send WSG to the next level.
GLA (cue DHC and others with an agenda to suggest as a new poster, I am somehow a dual ID merchant.... pmsl. FYI I'm not, just a firm believer in WSGs chances of a decent rerate this year and happy to stay invested and wait patiently...)
