Plus about £25m in valuable freehold sites and assets if all revalued at current prices even thogh values now well off the peak. Nearly all the depots are freehold and the huge warehouses at the docks in Tilbury will be worth far more than the £6m I think they paid out five years ago prior to vacating Clapton.

and donot forget the £ 8.5 mill CASH PILE.

Excellent figures and of course the usual caution going forward which will probably hold things back whilst the company continue doing those buybacks. I am a long termer so happy to see the NAV just continue upward alongside the divi which is well covered and will be close to 5% this year.

[hvs] 26/6/2008 08:11

Fantatistic set of figures.

Nice divi to boot.

Did you guys see the take out rating for Gibbs and Dandy ? If that was applied to LTHM and full allowance for our assets then the fair value would be north of £4 here. I am not suggesting that is likely though just comforting..

Thought you may have a view

[hvs] 04/5/2008 18:50

Why ask me ?

I just love this company.

[iasike] 28/4/2008 17:29

hvs, so what are your forecasts for 2008/09?

[hvs] 28/4/2008 17:27

Do not worry about what you do not know.

[iasike] 24/4/2008 14:39

hvs, why will it rise big time when results are announced?, we already know
the results are going to be exceptional. It's this years trading we don't
know.

[hvs] 23/3/2008 12:16

Yes, it will rise big time when results are announced.

Solid little company.

[ntv] 11/3/2008 07:43

nice backing for the share price
it should put a floor under it for a while at least

[hvs] 10/3/2008 18:56

No worries here.

Just patience needed.

[ntv] 10/3/2008 17:00

[ntv] 10/3/2008 15:57

[ntv] 10/3/2008 08:11

90k purchase for treasury stock
the company thinks the shares are cheap and so do i

[davidosh] 22/2/2008 11:32

Freddy....you must be joking !!

The company never gets excited about the future EVER !!

To make this sort of statement about current trading six weeks BEFORE the year end says it all for me....and for a Latham director to be able to use the word EXCEPTIONAL must have needed Royal consent so I am very pleased.

Business as usual...

[naeclue] 22/2/2008 11:18

Nice of LTHM to wake us up with a great trading update, should say yet ANOTHER great trading update. Terrific company, great management, time to get back to sleep until final results, isn't it?

wcb

they must hand out prozak pills by the dozen!!!
assets and cash at premium these days
no fancy aquisitions
,just open another yard without the fuss and huge costs
esr must have had a good second half as well with a bit of luck

[westcountryboy] 22/2/2008 08:39

You are always so transparent, freddy! You want to buy these lower, as usual. Latham have been making gloomy forward statements almost the company was founded in 1757...

[ydderf] 22/2/2008 08:09

....read on though......outlook bleak! this is what will drive the price today after the muppets have piled in before 9 am...
