No idea - cant find any news - maybe the market has decided that undervalued shares like Avon and Shire Pharma are ready to follow the rest. About time 😊

42m contract won

18BTDefo an outer, immigration is a side issue but it crystallises all that is wrong with the EU and is diverting us away from the real issue of growth and operating in the global market.The european trade will be there if we leave but we wont have external control from German hiding behind Brussels.

[18bt] 03/3/2016 10:06

Ch1ck - presumably you are an outer then? We could use more of the money that goes to CAP to help farmers without touching the £9bn net cost.

[jeffian] 03/3/2016 10:05

For reasons of free trade. If we start slapping on tariffs, then so does everyone else. TV News item on Brexit this morning said that 38% of all Welsh lamb production goes to EU. Slap a tariff on imported milk products and see how quickly the same happens toour agricultural products.

There is no visibility in dairy, talk to dairy farmers in this country and they will tell you the industry is screwed! LOW MILK PRICES are not sustaining UK dairy farmers! Most of them can barely eke out any sort of wage!

[asturius101] 03/3/2016 08:37

I would agree - time to start buying here again imho

[18bt] 03/3/2016 07:53

That's a steady as she goes announcement. Now just need something which gives greater visibility over dairy.

[mattboxy] 03/3/2016 07:51

Good news let's hope it reflects today

("Avon", the "Group" or the "Company") US Department of Defense Mask Systems Order Avon is pleased to announce the receipt of an order for 166,623 M50 mask systems worth $42m under its 10 year sole source contract with the US Department of Defense ('DOD').

The M50 provides US troops with state of the art protection against CBRN threats." Interim results for the six months ended 31 March 2016 will be announced on 4 May 2016.

Ch1ck, yes just checked volume on my VectorVest system - says it was 213% times average today.

I am not aware of any news - just think that its been beaten up in the downturn. The VectorVest valuation is 1,357 versus the close today of 760 - so hopefully a long way to go.


Good luck

[ch1ck] 01/3/2016 20:48

GrovI notice daily buy volume is increasing, looks like interest is building or there is news in the pipe line

[grosvenor] 01/3/2016 14:59

Agreed- this share is grossly undervalued IMHO - hopefully it will soar just like Greggs did today and Lloyds a couple of days ago.

Other shares that look similarly undervalued IMO are Nichol (Nicl.) Macfarlane and MJ Gleeson figers crossed

Markets oversold this includes Avon. I am expecting an announcement soon on the American military contract, this will have an instant boost to the share price.The campaign for a fair price for dairy farmers is growing watch out for A2 milk products these are selling at a 100% premium and will form a catalyst for a price rise.Doubled up on my shares today.Looking for the bounce

[cheaky monkey] 01/2/2016 18:11

I agree nehpets81, a nice buy today from the new CEO does leave me to wonder if it was a little bit planned IMHO. Given the general market jitters at the moment, anything other than mega positive is being hammered, so knowing new CEO would likely put his hand in his pocket, what better way than with a nice lower share price? Call me cynical but I for one topped up as have complete confidence in this co, usually a nice tuck away share so last weeks drop was very unusual.

ALL IMHO
DYOR!!

That was a bit of a clumsy update actually in my view. There is talk of softening dairy markets but no quantitative details of how that is actually affecting the business. Does it means that AVON are going to miss forecasted expectations? A simple line such as "they are likely to me modestly below expectations" or "despite the shortfall, pre-tax profit is expected to still be in line with expectations" would have given some much needed clarify.

I see Edison have shaved about 10% off their forecasts which suggests the price collapse is a bit overdone but without any clarification from the company itself it is quite hard to say I think.

[petethehippy] 26/1/2016 16:20

When is next trading update due?

[breaktwister] 26/1/2016 11:24

We are in a bear market so it doesnt take much for a stock to tumble. I topped up at 840.

[cheaky monkey] 26/1/2016 08:24

Wow! What a reaction, overdone? Long term holder & very rarely see a drop like this. No massive volume so far so mm's taking advantage of weak overall sentiment?Any thoughts?CM

[mattboxy] 23/12/2015 22:45

Anyone know why these are drifting ?Is it on decent volume or just profit lockers?
