Culver Share Discussion Threads

[bonacipher] 15/3/2005 16:42

I have had this stock for years, and won't bother humouring you with how much I could once have potentially made. Suffice to say, I'm now desperate for any positive news that means I should hold on to my now almost worthless holding - can anybody offer anything positive?

I work in the recruitment market, specialising in insurance.
If Culver (as per their newsflow at results last year) are hoping to grow purely by recruiting new business producers then they are in cloud cuckoo land. These people are like goldust & anyone who is decent at being a new business producer is already employed & paid handsomely.
Is their office in Berks just for financial services, or do they administer general insurance out of it aswell ?

Low market cap is intriguing, the market is undergoing major changes & there are a number of players chomping at the bit to buy any broker that wants to be sold. However businesses are bought on a scale of say 1x their commission income, perhaps as low as just 0.75 x commission income. That would still give a share price double to that currently I s'pose.

Worth me doing some more digging on these as I do not recruit for them.

Rather poor interims. Doesn't look like much left for existing shareholders does it! I don't hold..don't think I'll bother!

Last year, sales for continuing operations was 2.82 mln stg, against 2.271
mln stg the previous year while operating profit was 45,000 against a loss of
1.982 mln before.
Pretax loss was 9,000 stg against a loss of 3.747 mln.

a great groeth company, possibly a atkeover target, has been growing by acquistions and organicallly, losses narrowed,
also a great day trading share.
any views? trades are not instantly displayed, delayed trades and this will rocket. wdik

I'm back lads and I'm ready to go.Its definitely time for one of these: WHO GOES? HOLLOWMAN OR NEO YOU DECIDE Serene Moreton (Miss)Home at last you all cry!

[philmiboots] 30/5/2003 16:12

err.. quite, what has/is happening here.
Nice to see one of my old bombed out stocks making some sort of recovery, some way to go yet though!
:o)

[recruiter] 27/3/2003 08:32

vastly undervalued as an Insurance Broker. You don't have that sort of brokerage & profit & a mkt cap of what was £700K.

Although I follow these I am not a holder, reluctantly, purely down to the NMS & how much you can buy & sell which really is pathetic.

[clocktower] 26/3/2003 15:31

Life in the air today, a bounce.

[recruiter] 26/7/2002 09:32

does anyone know the name of their commercial insurance broking division & ideally where it is based ?

[johnpison] 25/7/2002 23:36

That's interesting. We shall look out for the report. Must be 't' either Fri, Mon or Tue.

For some reason, not all the trades are being reported.
I did buy 10k of these today, MM's are short of stock.

[johnmolnar] 25/7/2002 17:38

Errol,

You could be right, if it goes up 30% on no trades and no announcement, just imagine if someone had bought a few shares!

[johnpison] 24/7/2002 20:21

Hi Errol - looks like we were both wrong - me more than you!!

regards

JPI

[errollflynn] 05/7/2002 14:30

Look like this could well be worth a punt IMHO.
