More detail on that upgrade to 1600p.... http ://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/126828/magic-lies-beyond-merlin-for-accesso-says-peel-hunt-126828.html "Magic lies beyond Merlin for Accesso, says Peel Hunt 12:49 07 Jun 2016 Broker Peel Hunt provides a comprehensive look at accesso today Expanding virtual queue firm Accesso Technology Group PLC (LON:ACSO) is handed a bullish ticket today from broker Peel Hunt, which has pumped up its target price on the stock to 1,600p from 1,280p (current price: 1,308p). The broker reckons the current share price only factors in upside potential from its deal with entertainment giant Merlin Entertainments PLC (LON:MERL) but there are many others opportunities which give cause for optimism. These provide upside of up to $17.2mln in 2017, or a 16% increase to revenue, which in turn would equate to earnings upside of up to 60%, the broker reckons. Global theme park market of 1bn visitors Major among these is that the potential global theme park market is 1bn visitors per year and if accesso was to work with all the operators with whom it does not yet have a relationship, excluding Disney, this would be a nine-fold increase in its reach, notes analyst Paraag Amin. "We conservatively estimate a 5% revenue uplift in 2017 and 7.5% in 2018, as we anticipate accesso will gain share as its solutions become increasingly desired by smaller operators and new, larger parks come online," said the analyst. Accesso's technology allows visitors at theme parks to step out of line and be told when their chosen ride or attraction is ready. Its main product is called LoQueue, which has been widely adopted. It also owns the accesso Passport ticketing suite, where customers can shop OnSite. OnLine, while Siriusware is another of its ticketing and admissions systems. Another factor the broker foresees as becoming the norm is "fully automated queue free theme parks in the future". On that basis, it estimates a 1% revenue uplift in 2017 and 2% in 2018, as "we anticipate queue-less theme parks (or at least a virtual queueing solution for the most popular attractions in parks) to be introduced in 2017". In addition, Amin reckons that around half of accesso’s current parks are relatively mature, namely that queue management (QM) is a relatively new product, generating around 70% of revenue, whilst the remainder are still maturing. "If these immature parks build up to the same eventual level as the mature parks, accesso could see up to a 30% revenue uplift," he said. The analyst added that the group's current customers using QM in at least one venue serve over 100mln visitors per year, so the group could see close to a three-fold increase in QM revenue by rolling it out in all the remaining parks Rapid uptake of smartphones On the ticketing side of the business, the broker notes with the rapid uptake of new smartphones, ther

Good to see the price nicely up on good volumes, with 964,000 shares traded today. Last year's H1 trading update was on 29th July, so not that long to go.

Good news - Davy initiate today with Outperform: https://www.davy.ie/research/public/article.htm?id=venn20160607_03062016.htm "Tried and tested: Initiating with an 'Outperform' rating June 7 2016 DAVY VIEW Venn Life Sciences is a small-cap clinical research organisation (CRO) building scale in an attractive segment of healthcare outsourcing. Now that it is profitable and cash-generative, the business has the potential to grow rapidly, internally and externally. Venn’s valuation – it is on a forward-year P/E of 14.3x and EV/EBITDA of 8.1x – leaves plenty of scope for it to outperform." Hybridan forecast 2.12p EPS this year, so presumably Davy's "forward-year" P/E is actually current year, just different terminology."

Some extracts are free to view if you're not a subscriber: http://www.investorschronicle.co.uk/comment/simon-thompson/ "Somero on track for a solid year of growth 07 June 2016 The specialist in patented, laser-guided concrete levelling equipment for commercial floors has posted an upbeat trading update... .....Aim-traded Somero Enterprises (SOM:160p), a Florida-headquartered company that specialises in the design, assembly, and sale of patented, laser-guided concrete levelling equipment for commercial floors, posted a trading update at yesterday's annual meeting "comfortably in line with expectations..... .....In other words, segments that represent 85 per cent of the business are firing on all cylinders. They are likely to continue to do so given that European markets are showing a steady recovery from their recessionary low point in 2010-11, and in the US there are lengthy project backlogs for customers in the non-residential construction market that extend well into 2016.

News today - good to see. 340p would be a start.... "WH Ireland Starts Gama Aviation With Buy Rating 0810 GMT WH Ireland initiates coverage on Gama Aviation with a buy rating and 340p target price. Says organic growth will be driven through the expansion and extension of services, and Gama has the potential to be a market consolidator."

Buying now coming in at 164p, and we have new recent highs.

Saturday's SCSW featured STAF in its review of its Growth Portfolio, of which STAF is a member, and summarised: "Based on eps of 117p for the year, the prospective P/E for the year is 9.5. Dirt cheap." At 1080p that P/E is now just 9.2.

Yep, Saturday's SCSW definitively said Buy and concluded: "Numis forecasts record pretax profit of $US35.8m/eps 20.9 cents and we suspect the shares are overdue a bounce. Buy." Not to mention the forecast 8.4p dividend or the $115m cash pile which should fund more acquisitions.

Looked at Walter Lilly's news page for the first time, and there's a lot of recent news in the last week - two new large country estate project awards and three new projects in Belgravia: Http://www.walterlilly.co.uk/news/

HAYT aren't just investing for expansion in Luton: Http://haywardtyler.com/2016/06/01/htfh-transformation-project-east-kilbride-scotland-phase-1/ "HTFH Transformation Project, East Kilbride, Scotland – Phase 1 While HTG is investing in the development of a Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Luton, continuing support for its other global sites (Peter Brotherhood (England), HTFH (Scotland), HTInc (USA), HTK (China) and HTI (India) are being planned on a benefits/cost basis. In order to future proof the HTFH facility in Scotland a degree of upgrading is required in order to bring its systems, processes, infrastructure and machinery to the desired ISO9 / Fit 4 Nuclear Group level. Using Lean Sigma techniques and processes HTG’s “Transformation Team” have instigated a future proofing improvement project at its HTFH facility in Scotland, supported by the Scottish Enterprise. The future proofing plan is to modernise the shop floor and systems first by way of consolidating all manufacturing into 2 bays, allowing the team to bring bay 1 & there after bay 2 up to ISO9 / Fit 4 N particulate level compliance, in order to be able to manufacture Subsea, Nuclear Power and Oil and Gas component parts to the same level of quality as the CoE in Luton. Several events are being run throughout the year including a Mega 5s event, a Creative-Destructive event, clean lean certification events and site wide communication events. The first phase of the transformation was a Mega 5S event, attended by Rhona Alison, Head of Business Development at Scottish Enterprise."

Peel Hunt have today increased their target price to 1600p (from 1280p)..... Http://www.investegate.co.uk/News/broker-forecast---peel-hunt-issues-a-broker-note-on-accesso-technology-group/671431/

Paul Scott continues to hold SOM - he liked yesterday's statement and has this to say on the current valuation: http://www.stockopedia.com/content/small-cap-value-report-6-jun-2016-som-srt-amo-swl-134306/ Extract: "Valuation - the figures look extremely attractive - a low PER, together with a strong balance sheet (with net cash), and very high quality scores too. No wonder the StockRank of 97 is so high. This looks remarkably good value to me."

Post-results, FinnCap have increased their target price to 195p (from 170p). And Peel Hunt have increased their target price to 190p (from 165p).

Results are out - and ahead of expectations. The 10.1p adjusted EPS is well ahead of the consensus 9.42p: http://www.investegate.co.uk/carclo-plc--car-/rns/final-results/201606070700073585A/ The outlook is extremely positive. In particular: - Wipac is making a big expansion into medium volume models which is likely to further transform profits from this division - CTP is expanding globally in India, USA, China, Europe.....all on the back of agreed customer sales programmes and requirements - and aerospace continues to perform well With CDS gone as already announced, CAR can now focus on the tremendous potential of its core businesses. The 11.5p EPS forecasts for this year may or may not be increased at this stage, but imo CAR deserves a considerably higher rating than the current one.

I bought some of these before the close on Friday to take advantage of the dip following the directors' share sale. Having been following RTC for aeons this seemed like a good time to buy in. The interims next month will imo almost certainly be good, given that if they weren't the reputation of the CEO would be ruined forever having flogged a tranche of stock to someone with the reputation and status of Christopher Mills. The involvement of Christopher Mills (being Oryx's fund manager) in a microcap stock like RTC has to be extremely encouraging. Oryx International Growth Fund now have a 6% stake, i.e 905,000 shares, in this tiny £6m m/cap stock. Most unusual. With 8.6p EPS and a 3.3p dividend forecast this year, RTC are on a P/E of only 8.1 with a 4.7% dividend yield. Pretty cheap imho.

Trading is "comfortably" in line, which suggests slightly above expectations. In particular, (1) the core US and European markets continue to thrive, more than offsetting reduced activity in some much smaller markets and (2) the Chinese market is improving with positive trading - if this takes off the potential is huge. Also good to see that sales of parts and services have been "particularly strong". Consensus expectations are 16.2p EPS this year and 17.55p EPS next year, so SOM still trades on a single-figure current year P/E.

The slow-burn rise into the results later this month, which we already know will be nicely in line, continues. Finncap have retained their 45p target price.

Moving back up, presumably in advance of the year end trading update, which last year was on June 23rd. Current forecasts are: - year to 30/6/16 : 6.83p EPS, 3.62p dividend - year to 30/6/17 : 9.46p EPS, 4.34p dividend In March the CEO sounded pretty bullish: "We are pleased to confirm that the strong trading momentum from the second half of fiscal 2015 accelerated into the first half of the current financial year, with this period marking our strongest first half performance to date. The Company has experienced record growth over the twelve-month period, driven by expansion within our existing core customers, the launch of new business offerings and growth into new industry verticals. With our strong balance sheet and healthy profit generation, the Board is confident in continued profitable revenue growth."
