Masterb, wheres that 1M........... cannot see it. B

I hope they are all not buying off the back of that 5h1te article yesterday.............. cheap at 4p, should be 6p...lol... It was fookin 6p before Pasty Pete added 200M shares at 4p.................. and nailed 10 cusps from Jesus times to the wall as collateral...Spreadex must be cursing Peter as I am sure he said that at least one CUSP was imminent..............B

wsg will never make a profit.......... they bid low to win the business. There is a family of Fowlers to keep going, so overheads are not coming down anytime soon.... for 10 years the money going out has been more than the money coming in.... even though they have had £50M of investment from shareholders..... Not a vgreat business model for shareholders, excellent business model for the Fowler Pension scheme.....B

stew, there is no point trying to work out what is going on, the mystery started on the 27th and 28th Nov when 30M shares traded and no TR1 followed....... Steve F was equally concerned and asked the NOMAD to check the register.... it looks like the major holders still hold what ever it says on the register... so no magic bullet found............. As stated it doesnt take a lot to manipulate this share price and with 2% short, some fun and games can be had if needed........ As I said yesterday this is a binary bet and the results next week will drive the SP up or down.............. and the future direction will be set until the TU later in the summer resets that direction...... The company suggest they are expanding and prospects appear good if they convert them............ As there have been no RNS about contracts, then they either have not won anything yet or they are not material...... we shall know how much jam and how much substance soon.......... I am twitchy because this moves very quickly in either direction......B

Morning NH............... Yep.... cuppa time........ not sure worth a cake just yet.............B

That recent fund raising gave the group sufficient working capital going forward, while also allowing it to pay off some £2.6m of mezzanine loan facility and loan notes.
It is now debt free, apart from some small operating leases.
Good shareholder list
There are some 286.5m shares in issue.
The larger shareholders include Spreadex (7.87%), Janus Henderson (4.36%), Premier Miton (3.49%), Harwood Capital (2.97%), Canaccord Genuity Wealth (1.85%), Riverfort Global (1.57%), and Yorkville Advisors Global (1.57%).
Peter Fowler owns 6.501,794 shares, some 2.27% of the equity.
2020 results due and broker estimates are looking good
Either late April or early May could be when the group will announce its 2020 results.
Analyst Andrew Simms, at the company’s brokers Arden Partners, has estimated that group sales for last year actually improved from £10.9. to £11.7m, while the adjusted pre-tax loss for the year was just £0.1m lower at £0.7m.
However, Simms sees sales lifting to £16.7m this year to end-December and adjusted profits before tax will be some £1.5m, worth 0.5p per share in earnings.
There is a big proviso against any of the expected sales not actually coming through this year, but Simms appears positive in his ‘buy’ stance and his price objective of up to 19p, as compared to last night’s closing 4.2p.
My view
There is a lot going on within this group and I feel that its shares, at 4.2p, are undervalued and offer some big upside.
Hopefully, I will become even more confident about the company after its imminent results.
In the meantime, I see the shares easily moving upwards and through my target price of 6p, which I set now.

there you go....
There is a lot going on within this group and I feel that its shares, at 4.2p, are undervalued and offer some big upside, writes Mark Watson-Mitchell.“The outlook for 2021 is looking positive. Revenues from existing contracts, together with recent and anticipated new contract wins, are expected to put the company back on course for the double-digit growth in 2021 that we were experiencing prior to the Covid impact.”
That was from the 4 March trading update from the £12m capitalised Westminster Group (LON:WSG), which is a supplier of managed services and technology-based security solutions worldwide.
Something secure about this company
The group’s mission statement is “Westminster believes all citizens of the world have the right to personal safety and security.”
Its range of products is extensive and covers all forms of personal and site safety, anti-terrorism, risk reduction, defence and homeland security products and systems.
Those products can be delivered to the group’s clients anywhere in the world.

They take in screening and x-ray, detection, fire, vehicle and pedestrian management, surveillance, health and safety, inspection and search, and even explosive ordnance disposal and improvised explosive device disposal.
Global customers
The company has customers in 78 countries across six continents, including national governments, sports stadia, educational facilities, conference and exhibition centres, shopping malls, financial institutions, hospitality sector and medical centres.
The group provides equipment and services to organisations across a very wide range of sectors, such as government entities, non-governmental organisations, critical infrastructure, and commercial operations.
Names like BP, Mitie Group, the Royal Navy, HM Prison Service, the British High Commission in Ghana, Aberdeen Harbour, Menzies Aviation, AirBridgeCargo, BAT, the UN, Bhutan’s Anti-Corruption Commission, the Northern Ireland Prison Service, and the International Atomic Energy Agency are just a few of those in the list.
Covid-19 saw some contract negotiations suspended
Obviously, the pressures of Covid-19 were felt heavily by the company and a great number of contracts were either suspended or negotiations went into limbo, with many being carried over into this trading year from January onwards.
There are still quite a number of contracts that are needing to be signed off and will probably show through when the pandemic eases.
Now debt-free and cash rich
Early last December the group raised £5m through the placing of 125m new shares @ 4p each.
At that time the group’s CEO Peter Fowler stated that, “We have spent a number of years investing in our business, building our global presence and developing an impressive pipeline of large-scale opportunities, each of which, if secured, would lead to multi-million GBP step changes in growth. Accordingly, the Board and I believe we are now at an inflection point in our growth That recen

And they bought a company using £40m quids worth of shares (10m @ £4) as part of the deal. And still only have a market cap of £40m . On every level this company is a conundrum. B

Just said the same....... what is weird is when this went on a March from 40p to £2.50, the market saw LOOP as a darling in the midst of covid and reflected that in the acceleration upwards... the wheels came off when the world went back to work in the late summer and LOOP looked like it had run out of growth and darling status was removed very quickly. This was further compounded in November when LOOP clumsily stated that it was loosing some non PS customers and didn’t know how much growth would occur in 2021 and instead relied on ARR of £34m against a likely £50m revenue for 2020. Peeps looked at the 2 numbers and immediately assumed growth had crashed and left the building very quickly (50% crash)..... LOOP have done nothing since to straighten this out. B

yep 13Martyn looking good here with a couple of big buys and a steady stream of smaller ones............ I suspect the government want the country back to work pronto to prop up the economy as we have a very large overdraft to pay off !!..........and STAF are in a good place to help retrain the work force that sadly lost their jobs due to Covid..........B

bigsmoke.......... if I was a trader I wouldn't still be here, I would have got out with my 10% a long time ago....... I am here for £2 plus but am downbeat as this share continues to dumbfound me !! There is a lot of peeps who think LOOP fooked up the Nov TU and therefore deserve the kicking they got.... however the 3 months that have passed by should have been plenty of time for LOOP to set the record straight......... they didn't and continue to remain silent... perhaps that means head down and getting on with the job............ but the market does not like fog and LOOP could have said something in the last TU about outlook [things are really busy!] but chose not to, instead just re affirmed the 2020 results...... so next week is the big week for LOOP and positions are likely being set this week....... I have the powder to average down if it plummets, but may choose to move on if LOOP continue to frustrate or underwhelm............ and apologies it was a 50% drop....... either way, I think LOOP is now a binary bet and they have either learned from the Nov car crash or they have not....... we shall see. B

Could be a few wobbles before next week............ I do tend to agree that silence is not helping here from the BoD. Equally nothing material has happened as they are duty bound to report it. so the Bank trial is either not a material addition if they were successful [or they are still waiting for the nod which will magically turn up on results day].... or they have not been successful. Either way its been more than 6-8 months since any prospects have materialised, so they should know where they stand now, so that should be reported next week. There is definitely no FOMO going on here, more the opposite and a Fear of Being In, which may mean peeps would rather catch this going up than get poor results and get stung getting out.. this dropped 30% on the Nov TU which peeps said was well overdone......... its not really got beyond 85p since and hovered around mid 70s for almost all of the3 months which has been pretty rubbish for a share that was supposed to be unbelievably cheap............so... this remains a mystery until next week..... and if Loop do another Nov style update, then the Market will be very unhappy as will the share price..........B

The sp has remained range bound as there has been no update since November on outlook, once we know the next range will be set. If it’s good then a quid beckons if it’s bad, then new lows will follow. Quite binary this one now. B

I think they have done the 2020 result to death, so no surprises for the EOY results .... what is needed is new contracts won and outlook....LOOP seem unable to forecast likely conversion rates of the opportunities, but filling vacancies world wide shows potential but I think they do churn a lot of recruits, so are these new vacancies filled or replacements?............B

below placing price now............ getting closer to a nibble...... B

peeps buying at 72p.......... nice. B

never thought we would see the 70s again............ very frustrating this.... maybe a final squeeze by the shorters before they exit stage......... you just cannot figure this one out. B

I wonder if 70p will go today.B

and even closer to 70p................ B
