18/6/2008 21:53 | Glad I sold all of mine for 8.5p now. At least I got the tax loss last year. Good luck to those that remain, but can't honestly see much value left in these markets. I suspect someone will be able to buy these businesses for a very low price...probably the directors!? | topvest | |
18/6/2008 18:08 | Of course it's precarious. I'm suggesting we might to be able a bit more than zero. I was expecting administration so this is better but it could still end up zero. | aleman | |
18/6/2008 17:51 | Looks fairly precarious if you ask me. Some good companies going bump at the moment...credit crunch is starting to bite! I would never have thought that Premier Direct would have ended up in administration so quickly, but it did. | topvest | |
18/6/2008 16:24 | Not in administration yet, then. Could be some value in these yet. Scotland hasn't been hit as hard as the rest of the UK. I'll bet they could sell off the Scottish business to pay off the debt, i.e. get £600k for a business bought for £3.6m. Dipford, which operates in the business broking market, announces that it has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP ('Deloitte') to assist in the process for the procurement and consideration of indicative offers for all or part of the trade and assets of the Company. For further information please contact Roger Esler at Deloitte on 0113 243 9021. | aleman | |
07/6/2008 10:08 | It was on the cards with the current business climate and after the EGM fiasco I sold mine | kenatbabken | |
06/6/2008 20:30 | Oh dear...the end! | topvest | |
06/6/2008 15:31 | Dipford Group PLC 06 June 2008 Dipford Group plc, which operates in the business broking market, announces that it has requested that trading in its shares on AIM be suspended with immediate effect pending clarification of its financial position. In recent weeks the level of completed sales has fallen sharply with a consequent reduction in the company's cash inflows and, therefore, its working capital position. The company is presently discussing its position with its bank. | aleman | |
09/4/2008 22:52 | I don't suppose anyone made it to the EGM? | aleman | |
20/3/2008 21:39 | Rather late - still gives totally inadequate disclosures compared with the EGM notice. Is their NOMAD totally useless or what? | topvest | |
20/3/2008 15:33 | I see my email has had a response and the RNS for the EGM has been issued | kenatbabken | |
20/3/2008 11:22 | Aleman-I,m also going to stick it out because as you say it,ll be hard to move them anyway,Bloody annoying that the placing was,nt put out on an RNS though, but if they are committing might work out in the medium term | kenatbabken | |
20/3/2008 10:30 | LSE showing it down 13.5% at present, but, no trades at all that I can find - Hmmm ! | cyprussteve | |
16/3/2008 14:30 | Ken - I understand your wish to know earn out costs. My point still stands about the cash in the accounts. Each balance sheet statement usually contains about £500k of customer deposits included in the cash balance. Cash and bank overdrafts at beginning of period 353,106 Cash and bank overdrafts at end of period 456,682 Cash and cash equivalents include client account balances of 548,000 I assume the company has an overdraft of 90k and no cash, hence the very low share price and fundraising. There looks to be a basically very good business here that is struggling with interest and earnouts. Possibly a fundraising and renegotiation of earnouts could produce a substantial advance in the shares although I an still very much in the dark about details. It is damn frustrating waiting to see an email and posted notice, neither of which has turned up yet. It reminds me a bit of JCR who had buyout cost worries that were overcome, although they didn't have the credit crunch affecting their market. | aleman | |
15/3/2008 09:59 | What was never clear to me was the amount paid to - Buy out the Redwards Agents. and there was never an admission of a managerial bog up. That is when the rot set in. I imagine the company was virtually on its knees when Aleman made his recent purchase and the proposed fund raising is the best we can hope for. | dickstertwo | |
15/3/2008 07:45 | Aleman I was talking about the earn out for this aquisition The acquisition of Bruce & Co. will give Dipford comprehensive coverage throughout Great Britain. Once fully absorbed, the acquisition is expected to be a significant contributor to the Group's future profitability. The consideration for the acquisition, which is primarily debt-funded, will be satisfied as to #250,000 in Dipford shares (a total of 406,504 ordinary shares issued at 61.5 pence per share), #1.5 million in cash plus an amount equal to the net cash balance in the company. In addition, there will be a cash earn out of up to #1.25 million, calculated over the four years following completion, depending on the performance of Bruce & Co. The total consideration payable will be a maximum of #3.6 million. An application has been made for the vendor consideration shares to be admitted to AIM and dealing is expected to commence on 9 January 2006. Bruce & Co. was founded in 1988 and is the leading Scottish licensed trade business broker. The two principals, and all the staff, will remain and drive the future expansion of the business. The existing strength in the hotel, pub and retail markets will be broadened to include other Group specialisations such as day nurseries and care homes, while providing the rest of the Group with detailed knowledge and experience of the hotel and leisure markets. For the financial year ended 30 September 2004 Bruce & Co generated a profit before tax of #611,990 on a turnover of #955,495 and as at 30 September 2004 had net assets of #997,066 of which #654,006 was cash. | kenatbabken | |
14/3/2008 21:11 | I agree with you guys. There is a false market in these shares without news being announced to the full market. It's a disgrace. Aleman - good point! | topvest | |
14/3/2008 15:09 | Almost all of that cash will be purchase deposits. I don't see quite why it should be listed on the company balance sheet if it is somebody else's. | aleman | |
14/3/2008 14:21 | Aleman I would of wanted the answers to a few questions before I bought if I,d of known what was happening,One being whats happened to the £548k in the accounts in December(I take it some money has been used as payment for the aquisition although I have,nt checked it out)I,ll await outcome of EGM (If they tell anyone) | kenatbabken | |
14/3/2008 13:28 | Thanks Aleman,I,ve emailed Mike Coe at Blue Oar and give him a rollicking | kenatbabken | |
14/3/2008 13:12 | I didn't get the promised EGM notice email. It seems their system is down which accounts for the website difficulty. Phoned again today and was put on to Blue Oar who are going to post me the notice. They didn't seem to think an RNS was necessary because all shareholders have been notified, even though I have been missed out. I pointed out that I thought the company should have a duty to notify the market to avoid potential new shareholders dealing without information that others have. I was asked to reserve judgement until I read the statement. Dipford and Blue Oar were both polite but I'm still in the dark which doesn't seem right. I have bought shares not knowing about some kind of potential capital raising and I presume you did, too, although it seems we may have dropped lucky in our timing. | aleman | |
14/3/2008 10:28 | Aleman Did you get any joy with your phone call? | kenatbabken | |
12/3/2008 20:18 | Sold all of mine today. A tax loss is better than holding these for me..more value from that! May buy back after the results. | topvest |
