Abcam Share Discussion Threads

[trident5] 21/11/2014 20:25

Now shipped 140k products in last 90 days, up from 130k - probably explains today's rise.

Luck

My largest is more speculative APAD - it's SRT. Revenue wise it's
still a bit blue sky/jam tomorrow, but it looks positioned to be
the global market leader if AIS takes off.

[apad] 27/8/2014 08:55

ABC just overhauled by TRCS trid. so 2nd as well.
This must be an omen:-)
What's your largest?
apad

[trident5] 26/8/2014 21:38

That's a coincidence Apad - Kentz was my 2nd biggest holding
too.

Now Abcam is. I hope this does half as well as Kentz.

[apad] 26/8/2014 21:10

Now my biggest holding since KENZ got taken out, rich.

Good to see continuous improvement to help reduce overheads and grow market share....

CAMBRIDGE, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Abcam plc, a global leader in the supply of innovative protein research tools, announced today it has established a direct service to Australia and New Zealand. The move signifies the importance of this region and Abcam's focus on providing the best products and services to accelerate the pace of researchers' scientific discoveries.

The new service enables customers in Australia and New Zealand to order their research tools directly from Abcam rather than through a distributor. These customers will also benefit from direct technical support, and delivery times reduced by up to 50% from order to delivery.

happy days... decent profit growth with currency movement and double digit when that it stripped out. China sales whilst still very small could start to contribute more strongly in the next few years as well.

Apad - we both increased too soon but not too late!

[artibee] 23/7/2014 08:55

that's good - the question is, will we break through 400 (and stay there)?

[rvsy38] 23/7/2014 08:52

Tempus column in The Times today has a good piece on ABCAM rating them a Buy as shares have fallen a long way and recovery looks set with 10.6% growth in second-half revenues.

[apad] 18/7/2014 08:21

I guess government spending + currencies + increased spending on headcount, rich.
I increased too soon.

[richscotsman] 14/7/2014 23:00

Trading update soon.... There are headwinds re currencies but I hope this has been written down too much... A week or two and we should be a bit more informed....

[richscotsman] 02/7/2014 14:10

Lots of new jobs in the states.... Bodes well....

Unicorn AIM VCT - 20/5/14

Abcam (-23%) is a global leader in the supply of innovative protein research tools. In March 2014, Abcam released its financial results for the six month period ended 31 December 2013, which were in line with your Investment Manager's internal forecasts. Revenues of £61.9m (H2 2012: £57.3m) represented half-year on half-year growth of over 8%, while earnings per share were up 6.5% to 8.74p (H2 2012: 8.21p). Abcam remains a cash generative business with a robust balance sheet. Net cash balances at the period end amounted to £35.3m. Despite Abcam's many obvious qualities, market reaction to the release of Interim Results in early March was negative as investors worried about currency headwinds and the impact of possible cuts to health budgets in the key North American market, which accounts for 43% of total sales. As a result, Abcam's share price ended the period markedly lower. The holding has been retained in the portfolio in the expectation that the de-rating in the value of Abcam will prove to be temporary.

It's kind of bowly and sitting at the bottom of an egg, that pointy bit pointing downwards - is that the beak?

[cockneyrebel] 06/5/2014 20:06

Next leg up starting?

Nice bowly sort of chart imo.

[richscotsman] 06/5/2014 20:02

Chart looks okay... Struggling against string dollar but slowly and surely we are coming back to the long term trend...

[scrabble1975] 02/5/2014 08:10

Looking strong today.
