I'm normally a fool in these situations and sell out far too early regretting my impatience. With that cash bank there is always a chance of a buyout here so I may just stick around on this one
I was already in and went from a loss to a profit today, I figured it had been tipped so I sold and hope to buy back lower. If Simon Thompson is tipping it I'm not even sure I want back in as his tips have been pretty awful of late
some great advice there for newbies there Toad especially the last 2 lines seen that many times. Not in myself but was watching as a previous winner, I've noted Stockopedia mentioning the demise here and wondering if the management simply aren't very good as other recruiters like STEM have done well. All I've seen of ST recent tips have been pretty poor, PTRO was one
looked at it but decided it's still too risky for me, every chance the bank won't be happy with their budgeting process which they've left somewhat late with the new year beginning very shortly = lack of financial control, might they be stricter regarding a waiver of covenants and maybe call for reducing the debt before allowing a waiver ? = possible rights issue/dilution, I certainly doubt they'll get it for free
RE: Not a good start for share price .1 Feb 2023 22:26
I don't disagree it's a dog, I sold on ipo fortunately. I have to question your calcs tho.... "50% on this takes it to 18max" that's 100% increase not 50%
reaction seems a little harsh i thought, not overly bothered as I'd already sold the trading element of my holding, the core remains intact and this remains my most profitable share ever
sold first thing. ceo sacked over "cultural concerns", wtf does that mean ? she only just bought tons of shares too, what happens to the 12% of the shares she holds ? also some vague profit warnings in there i thought
I was interested in this one post lockdown with the beauty business, once they bought IDP I lost interest and put on my bargepole list as I thought it was a terrible move, how right I was in hindsight. I guess there is a chance of a turnaround from here but now of course we have a recession looming and beauty treatment might be the first thing to be culled, might be priced in now but I doubt it. 10p may interest me
And I mean sticking their hand in their pocket meaningfully not as a pittance gesture, when you consider the BOD consists of 5 directors receiving a total of £780m including bonuses last year, calculate that total over the demise of the share price since joining aim 5 years ago, and according to Stockopedia not a single director buy in that time
trouble is they're not averse to raising cash, they raised £2m in 2021 and with these recent shenanigans they could be having working capital cash flow issues. Now if the BOD could just stick their hand in their pocket and show intent instead of buying themselves flashy cars (it's historic) I might be interested in adding
RE: Who gets it right for 2023 and beyond?11 Jan 2023 22:07
Been wondering the same, they reported 26/1/22, 21/1/21, 22/1/20 & 16/1/19, all Wednesdays & Thursdays, so maybe Wed 18th or Wed 25th or Thu 19th or Thu 26th take your pick imo
