Posted at 11/3/2008 09:43 by dickstertwo I see Rupert Cattell the Founding Director who left has now set up a similar operation -www.businesssalescen He has received very modest financial backing from BP Marsh ( bpm) the venture capital provider. I also looked up www.TurnerButler.co. As regards DIP - virtually all the original institutional backers have remained in there - surely they can't be happy with the share price As Aleman suggests its an obvious take over /take out situ. Perhaps the 27% HSBC Swiss based nominee doesn't want to play ball. |
Posted at 10/3/2008 15:33 by aleman I noted recently an approach for AMU, which I hold, and TMN, which I was thinking of buying as they have come off lows. I suspect management involvement in both approaches. In any event it seems financing is available to fund takeovers of these cash-generative smallcap companies. Of my other holdings , I think DIP has to be the most ripe one for a management bid to take it private, not forgetting the listing cost which seems a poor investment given the current market cap. (I also note there is huge director buying of large companies where financing a bid to go private seems unlikely so they take advantage of low share prices in the only way they can.) |
Posted at 06/3/2008 12:14 by cyprussteve Agreed - I believe the foundations have been built, and that 2008 will be the year that DIP begins to generate significant growth - I feel sure it is undervalued at the current share price Interesting to see the Directors holding amongst the major shareholders - I always like to see that - plus, only about 25% of shares in circulation - ( approx 75% held as below ) - hence potential for high growth if investor confidence grows.

Posted at 04/3/2008 16:42 by aleman Hope you're well. I'm fine - just trying out a new girlfriend. Sold the house to my ex and reinvesting the proceeds. Had this one on my monitor when it dropped. Jumped on it straight away. Had to twist my broker's arm to try again to get the 50k but I knew it was there. They had just approached the wrong MM and got it at the offer off the other one. 6.5p doesn't look bad now, does it? Been buying steady old favourite JCR on the dip and been building commodities and income with AAIF, APF, MLCO, SRHS and SHD.Have you any suggestions? |
Posted at 02/3/2008 14:34 by cyprussteve I am no great fan of the British Bulls website, but, I notice they have today marked DIP as a "Buy" - it is the first time that they have even listed DIP on their site.Regards Steve |
Posted at 01/3/2008 20:56 by cyprussteve As a new poster to this board, I offer a view as below.I made a few phone calls this afternoon relating to both DTEC and DIP,both of which I am trying to research in more detail, to two quite well connected large, almost professional investors - ( one used to be a market maker ) - who I know in the UK - I used to be in an investment club there, which is how I met them. Both were surprised I was asking about these shares, as, they said they had held quite a few conversations recently on both Companies , and knew several investors who had both on their watch list. One actually told me he was going to take a holding in DTEC himself after our convo, and, was seriously thinking about DIP. The common view was that both shares appear to have "bottomed", and, whilst speculative, they felt both Companies were undervalued. Not sure how much help this is, but, I pass it on for what its worth. I would welcome other views please. Regards Steve |
Posted at 09/8/2006 16:56 by aleman I wonder why a 3k buy ended up a T-trade, and why the price went up. Anyway, successive days trades is exciting for DIP - never mind successive rises! |
Posted at 08/8/2006 23:33 by mcsean2164 They could do with a name change!Possible names: 1. Upford 2. Risingford 3. Notadipinsightford etc. Even the ticker DIP doesn't really inspire confidence. |
Posted at 08/8/2006 22:25 by topvest Good to see someone else buying here. It looks like there was a big sell coming through after the results that caused the dip in the price. Dipford are certainly building a class leading position in their niche sector. Could be interesting in a couple of years. I'll have a look through the annual report when it arrives to see if there is anything of interest. This company could do with a bit of PR at this stage to encourage further interest in their shares. |
Posted at 31/7/2006 13:37 by aleman Hi, topvest. You are no longer alone. No - not aliens. I have bought in today. I have had an eye on this one for several months but tended to think it was expensive although they seemed to be making decent progress. The latest Bruce acquisition has been a big step in expanding the business and was making it look reasonably priced until the recent dip. I have taken advantage of the dip to buy in, although have had to pay over the odds. It is criminal that you can't buy a decent amount at the already wide spread, but I suppose I paid less than I would in preceeding weeks and also less than many shares that were issued at in recent placings so I shall not dwell on it. I rather like that the results showed only a few months for Bruce & Co and that the next full year will have a few £100k extra on the operating profit, taking it through £1m, and pretty well backed by cashflow. This makes the £5m or so market cap look ungenerous. Hopefully a slightly higher price and an odd further acquisition will improve liquidity in the future. |
