david i wish i had spotted these years ago as they have been a remarkable investment ,but it appears to me that these have a lot further to go ,looks a great chart with very good financial figures what more could you ask for?its been said before that the quieter the bulletin board the better the stock ,so lets enjoy the steady but surely rise in the price .

No problem lingy .....I have held these three years and been very happy with the growth in turnover, profits and the share price They pay a dividend and the occasional special divi too.....three posts in a year here since my last one but keep your voice down with those CAPS any strays coming here will think it is a rampers stock ...whereas nothing could be further from the truth and all that cash on the balance sheet means the stock does not quite stand out as superb value on first appearances.

Tipped by John Lee in the FT. Look at the result--------

[davidosh] 05/1/2006 11:22

Just the directors then maybe.....

I think most of the forced sales due to the Aim listing are done and hopefully it is onwards and upwards again now

[s34icknote] 23/9/2005 23:17

hI Cambium. Just got bored on my own!

[cambium] 23/9/2005 20:13

so many questions??

[s34icknote] 23/9/2005 19:25

Whats the cash per share?

[s34icknote] 22/9/2005 20:29

up 8.4% after drop back from results. Any Views any one on board?

[s34icknote] 21/9/2005 21:04

any one follow the results?

[bench2] 02/9/2005 11:33

Final results will be announced on Tuesday 20 Sept

[bench2] 30/8/2005 13:25

On past form TFW should announce their final results on 15 Sept , the third Thursday of Sept ( Interims normally 3rd Thur of March ). Will you be updating your full year forecast Mark? Turnover on the strength of the interims should be over £40m. and EPS circa 40p. But the share price action will depend on the statement on future trading.Let's hope that energy and raw mat rises haven't eaten into margins.

no reason why not penpont.

Good entry point now i think

[penpont] 12/7/2005 21:56

This looks one of the few good value, ISA'able small cap growth stocks still around.

Good quality, quiet thread too.

Does anyone have a view as to whether they will remain on the main market?

[bench2] 07/7/2005 21:23

The only quoted electrical contractor ( T Clarke ) got a big boost from the 2012 London Olympics. It will be interesting to see if TFW get any of the lighting contracts!

Hi there CWA1. Becoming a crowd !

Chart looking very healthy now, in support of the fundamentals.

[cwa1] 09/6/2005 09:06

There are at least 3 of us FWIW :-)

[wirralowl] 08/6/2005 22:31

Thanks for the reply Mark, and good to hear I won't be on my own over the coming months! Your analysis always seems very accurate on TFW, so reassuring to hear you are still holding too.

Had these on my monitor for a good couple of years now. Thought I'd missed the boat, so pretty pleased to be given a second chance to enter at what I believe is a low rating. If I've got my maths right, an H2 with no improvement on last year, would still see an EPS of 35p+. On the other hand, if they manage to perform comparatively as well as they have in H1 with a 20% uplift on profit, then we could see almost 40p. A PE of 10-12 gives a target range of anywhere between £4-£4.80, dependent probably on the market sentiment at the time of the finals.

[mark c graham] 08/6/2005 21:47

WirralOwl,

Still here, still holding - I've just been a bit too busy with my real job to concentrate on TFW.

My target price is still over 400p. I think the wording of the last chairman's statement was rather careless and needlessly (I hope) spooked the market.
