yes, pleasing. CTi revenues were 9.4 a bit less than my 10m guestimate, and core business was up a little more: 4% on a constant currency basis. That is ok-ish; worth watching, though, a bit more might be needed to maintain historic profit growth rates. They are still optimistic about some more acquisitions - a good bolt-on or two might be very value-enhancing. Overall, I remain a very happy LT holder.

Green
It is a Trading Update not an Interims announcement

Nice reminder here that if you invest in quality, the rewards will come. Market doesn't all have to be about an overnight buck.

looks ok. It is a pity RWS did not break out the revenue contribution from CTi. CTi did US$23m of rev in 2014, and US$33m in 2015 so approx. 2m pds per month (using the 2015 numbers). So five months of CTi revenue might be 10m - ie, most of the 11m YoY revenue increase RWS has reported. So not much growth from the rest of the business.

Nonetheless, upbeat comments overall, and still a happy LT holder, but would like to see more from the core/original business.

Buying opp Monday morning.

very disappointed to see so many mgmt. options exercised and then sold. Only 7% retained after exercising. No doubt mgmt. will claim they had expenses to meet, and still hold more options so still have our interests at heart, but all up this was not a vote of confidence in RWS and as a LT holder, I was disappointed by the extent of mgmt.'s selling.

ditto and a bright spot on an otherwise gloomy day

Moi aussi.

Outstanding trading statement
Thank you Andrew
I still retain my largish holding

hi, agree Phillis, good point about currency, until the EU referendum I think sterling is pretty much a one way ticket downwards, and looking at the 5-year chart I thought we might get a retracement to the 180-190 range (180 would be 50% of the breakout from 140 last year, fairly typical of many stocks) at which the shares would imho be superb value.

I haven't bought in yet, but 180-190 is my target area (where there is also good 12 month support). Just hoping that's not greedy and that I get something in that area!

[phillis] 12/1/2016 13:29

sp starting to look interesting again
good momentum, rising dividend and big increase in $ income as sterling weakens

[microscope] 02/1/2016 13:12

This is my share for 2016. Solid business in a niche area and the recent acquisition means rising profits, which should mean the good news keeps on coming in 2016

[phillis] 07/12/2015 17:55

doubtful
there is no volume

just good results and outlook

[orange1] 07/12/2015 17:29

or maybe something else is going on ....

[deadly] 07/12/2015 16:55

the market's expecting wonderful results!

[alter ego] 04/12/2015 15:13

results on Tuesday I believe - will see if share price can keep moving up.

[silver tortoise] 04/12/2015 15:09

Very pleased,how far do you think this will go ?

[phillis] 03/12/2015 15:19

and there she blows!
