nearly topped up a week ago under £18, looking for another chance

[buffetteer] 27/7/2014 20:06

Anyone topping up on this weakness -looks good value on 13.5x

Are we are a tad down perhaps due to the new "pay day" lender rules. As I understand it this does not impact on S&U, indeed they have suggested they will benefit given their ethical approach and closeness to their customers.
Is this a buying opportunity?
Half year trading update on August 5th.

[plasybryn] 08/7/2014 14:29

Perhaps we will see people reinvesting their dividends on Friday.

[plasybryn] 17/6/2014 13:21

Rising interest rates? Any implications for S & U?

[plasybryn] 16/6/2014 17:19

Ex div on Wednesday?

[buffetteer] 20/5/2014 08:09

Totally agree. With the economy recovering we should be in for a few good growth years - especially since the banks don't seem to want to be in car finance.

Steady as she goes - no fireworks just steady growth of turnover and profit from a socially responsible business. As CWA1 says No worries just tranquility/

[tudes100] 20/5/2014 07:51

Yawn indeed, great statement. Would like another top up but even with patience not sure this is going to come.

[cwa1] 20/5/2014 07:19

Yawn :-)

AGM & Interims on Tuesday.

With
New car sales up 18% last month I guess they do to want to miss out . Share your feelings though that the increase in profits is partly being funded by increased debt . However their gearing is very low for a finance house.

[pimsim] 05/4/2014 19:26

I can't help feeling that they really should be trying to build up a bit of a reserve cushion now that the gearing is starting to increase. At the moment, every penny they get in is going straight out the front door as new loans or divi payments.

I'm all for making hay while the sun shines just as long as they can survive the inevitable winter when it comes.

1/15 =127p

[tudes100] 04/4/2014 12:25

No broker recs I'm aware of since December last year (Canaccord, hold, 1500p share price target !!).

[firtashia] 04/4/2014 12:21

dig ital look has fy2014 EPS at 140.43p. (pbt of £21.13m). These have been updated since the finals.

[plasybryn] 03/4/2014 20:41

Anyone know what the latest Broker targets are for SUS?
Dividend paid week in Friday.

[m.t.glass] 26/3/2014 22:02

IG say reason for not quoting SUS is that it's too illiquid.

[fruitninja84] 26/3/2014 18:58

Unbelievable rise!! Surely there will be some profit taking now. But as long as this doesn't become over valued I will continue to hold ..

[plasybryn] 26/3/2014 17:35

Cracking stuff. I am impressed.

[tudes100] 26/3/2014 16:38

what's going on here ? Curious response to results in line with forecasts, not complaining though....

[m.t.glass] 26/3/2014 15:51

Had this in my ISA for several months, but wanted a spreadbet on it too. Unfortunately can't find it within IG's listings. Is it there under some other guise?? Or excluded for some reason?

[gorse] 26/3/2014 15:42

Don't unfasten your seatbelts, this is still ascending!

[buffetteer] 25/3/2014 10:51

20% earnings increase forecasted -pretty aggressive forecast
