Just reading the other board,let's not lose another UK company to the Yanks !! C'mon Rightmove,Savills et al, Foxtons the biggest UK lettings agency would compliment your businesses perfectly whilst property sales continues to drag it's feet under this higher and 'normal' interest rate environment.

Got back in this morning. This company is way too cheap, it's finally delivering on all fronts.

A lot of hedge funds are losing shed loads of cash currently and these lot sound like they're in trouble and want a quick get out here after holding the stock for years and at much higher levels. Sell and get out now would be my advice, we don't want to keep on hearing about your sob stories. Foxtons are well positioned to milk the UK property market after years of being in the doldrums.

Suspect it’s one of the activist investors trying to pile on further pressure. Given the level of recurring income, potential for growth and iconic brand, think they’ll be plenty of interest. Personally, I’d prefer to see it continue to recover / grow, than see yet another UK plc be taken over. But doubt that will happen!

Massive piece for a small company. These things aren't accidents, need to assume the company is for sale

A very positive Q1 statement this morning, just adding to the very bullish noises the company was making last year.Forward comments also very positive considering the dire state of the UK property sales market.Market won't be happy with yet more good news so don't expect too much fireworks in the share price.

How lovely of Topaz, to encourage people to buy with lots of stories of how this is going to fly through £1.00 with ease, only to sell off and desert his followers..

LOL...

I was going to say a snakes belly is the only thing lower than Topaz, but I think he has the snake beaten.

It'll come good one day, it's a great company now

[ivanborsky] 26/3/2024 11:14

Well done you, I haven't sold any and just done my family's ISA's etc. this morning at the early bird bargain prices.

[topazfrenzy] 26/3/2024 09:36

I sold at 57p after what looked like a double top at c.60

Looking to re-enter in the 40s after a general market correction this spring/summer

[topazfrenzy] 26/3/2024 09:32

I think the American funds are selling as they are fed up with the POS UK market

This should be at £1+ but it isn't as it's listed here lol

[ivanborsky] 26/3/2024 09:25

And just to add,all the gains since the start of the year have all but disappeared despite the impressive 2023 finals and bullish forward outlook for 2024 from the company.Even a blindfolded Cyclops can see what's going on here. Stock is now at its lowest price in US Dollar terms for the year.

[topazfrenzy] 26/3/2024 08:20

Getting close to the buy zone again

[ivanborsky] 26/3/2024 08:13

Easter holidays for some and the MM's fun and games have started already. Top up time on all the dips in the next couple of weeks starting this morning. Nice 🙂

[ivanborsky] 21/3/2024 14:00

Oooh, Platinum trimmed their investment albeit not by much. Looks like they've fallen for the MM game play. Some never learn !! 🥴

[onehanded] 20/3/2024 10:11

sold on monday and bought into PSN, nice profit from 38p here. Think this will dip before heading back up.

[topazfrenzy] 20/3/2024 10:05

This looks like it double topped and is heading back to 45p

[ivanborsky] 11/3/2024 13:46

Holding without any worries whatsoever and now ticking up nicely from it's historic lows of 28p. Long way to go to get back to £4.00 but no signs of any big sellers just those lot trying to get the price back down via the order book with their algo trades. Luckily for us we can sit back an relax and let them lot sweat out the small stuff !

[onedb1] 09/3/2024 15:05

Am holding don't worry not a seller. Trend is good and steady. UK rates are down and energy cap decrease in April will add to the speed at which inflation is coming down . London real estate is looking busy again as the economy too with an interesting decentralising benefit from those not commuting as much to central London / City and Canary Wharf as local areas are now busy during the week . In the past not so much during office hours . Mind you get a tube in the morning or train and you are squished like a sardine . The one street not looking good is Oxford Circus . But not a Foxtons money earner at all

https://masterinvestor.co.uk/equities/small-cap-catch-up-time-reat-eman-and-foxt/Foxtons Group (LON:FOXT) – A Strong Property HoldingConsidering the general state of the residential property market over the last year or so London's leading estate agency group gave out a very interesting set of full year figures on Tuesday of this week.Revenues for the year to end December 2023 were £147.1m (£140.3m), while adjusted pre-tax profits were £13.8m (£13.1m), generating 2.8p (3.0p) in earnings but maintaining its 0.90p per share dividend.CEO Guy Gittins stated that:"2023 was a year in which Foxtons has been fundamentally transformed. We have achieved a lot in a short space of time by making improvements across the business and Foxtons is now in much better shape than the company I inherited 18 months ago. We have restored Foxtons' competitive advantages by investing in core capabilities, growing fee earners and reinvigorating our culture and this has been achieved ahead of schedule. As a result, Foxtons was the UK's fastest growing large lettings and sales agency brand in the UK in 2023 and reclaimed its position as London's leading estate agency.Most importantly, we have rebuilt and strengthened the Foxtons Operating Platform. The platform is a unique, industry-leading and proprietary asset which will underpin our future growth and, due to its scalability, will provide Foxtons with the capability to expand and consolidate across our industry.Our strategy to deliver growth through sales market cycles by delivering Lettings growth is working, delivering resilient earnings for the year despite a weak sales market and the investment we made in fee earners. We are on track against our medium-term target of delivering £25m to £30m of adjusted operating profit, through organic and acquisitive growth and supported by improving market conditions."Analyst Greg Poulton at Singer Capital Markets rates the group's shares as a Buy with an upgraded Price Objective of 88p (63p) per share.For the current year his estimates are for £158.3m revenues, profits of £17.0m, earnings of 4.0p and paying a 1.10p dividend per share.With a portfolio of over 28,000 tenancies and growing in number, the £180m capitalised group has set itself a medium-term target of achieving a £25m to £30m adjusted operating profit.The group's shares, which have performed well since 2nd January when they were trading at 46p, closed last night at 59p.Hold very tightly, we are only days away from my 2024 Target Price of 61p being achieved, while my 2021 aim of 76p will take just a little longer to be scored.
