Hi Steg....YOU were a go-go stock during 08-09 and reached as high as 170p in that period.Whilst I am not suggesting that they will get there again anytime soon,there is no reason why they cant start heading in that direction over a period of time,subject of course to positive newsflow,specially from the US.

Short term (3-6mnth) I am hoping for 60-70p....

[stegrego] 07/1/2011 22:22

Watching this closely.

Do you have any targets here nurdin?

[nurdin] 07/1/2011 17:08

Some huge trades today...hopefully that will have cleared any overhang that may have existed.Should start motoring from here if the overhang has indeed been cleared.

oops..yes you are right Woozle.The acquisition came after the end of the FY year so the reported cash balances didnt include the $6m acquisition cost.

Still, as you say ,these are very cheap on current valuation and are quite likely to be snapped up by bigger boys if they languish at the current price.

[woozle1] 03/1/2011 09:15

Nurdin .. I think that your cash calculations may be a bit out .. they've paid out $6m for Harrison .. That being said, this is too cheap for a stock of this quality .. I think that once growth returns, the stock will be rerated .. I've been v surprised that none of the big players have tried to buy this .. I can only assume that there are some large holders who would only sell at a much higher price .. W1

agreed, I have been adding in small chunks a good recovery story here imo

[nurdin] 31/12/2010 07:50

That disposal announced yesterday swells the cash balances to £16.4m...equivalent to to about 17p per share.

Crazy valuation here imo...

[nurdin] 23/12/2010 11:53

17.6k buy at penny above offer...engines revving now I reckon ;o)

[nurdin] 21/12/2010 11:17

Nice 50k buy there..not much impact on the share price which suggests there is a seller there as well.
Once the seller is gone attention will no doubt focus on the value here...:o)

Trading on an EV/EBITDA multiple of just 5!

[nurdin] 17/12/2010 14:37

Had a few today.The share price is well supported by that 16p worth of cash on the balance sheet imo.
Looking at the final results,they recorded a 50% jump in earnings in H2 compared to H1 and it seems that the momentum has continued into the new financial year.The Harrison acquisition in the USA is also going great guns from what I gather.

Strip out the cash and the stock is trading on a multiple of 6x 2011 earnings which is way too cheap for a stock that is at the forefont of online research and political and media opinion polling markets

Blackrock now over 4%

[pictureframe] 03/11/2010 11:52

Heading towards breakout

[pictureframe] 22/10/2010 15:50

See Blackrock hold over 3% now and Hambro over 11%.

[pictureframe] 15/10/2010 10:13

Moving up now - 50p short term imo

[pictureframe] 12/10/2010 15:03

This share is over the worst now - looks like a good recovery play from here imo. Lots of large trades today - could even be a takeover target at this price imo.

[nellie1973] 11/8/2010 20:18

Tipped in Independent-BUY

[empirestate] 10/8/2010 21:39

looks like a seller clearing here, which may be the reason for the share price flatlining recently

[clintonville] 13/5/2010 11:04

What is going on with this company. There is no movements on my ticker and there are no available information on the share that I can find.

[obarmoth] 30/4/2010 12:03

Apparently this was tipped in Shares magazine yesterday. However, this has to be the quietest bulletin board I've ever seen! Doing nicely, though, since the bounce from the double bottom...

[markie7] 22/2/2010 08:23

looks like a safe tory seat. Not sure about his operating skills, but he was certainly the figurehead.

[johnrxx99] 08/2/2010 09:45

Reassuring statement. Mr Market may want the figure though before a rerating
