Posted at 02/8/2007 07:38 by elmbury Agreed - the break-up value does seem much greater than the current market cap. I feel that we will see bigger moves once the disposal of the slate business has been agreed, as investor confidence was shaken up so much by the mismanagement there. |
Posted at 14/5/2007 14:54 by partimetrader AccsysLSE: AXS Something for the serious investor in the construction / building division. Accsys Technologies PLC is a UK incorporated environmental science and technology company which is developing a range of transformational technologies offering substantial improvements in the cost and environmental impacts of production for a range of everyday materials. The most advanced of these is the process for wood acetylation, which effectively gives softwoods the durability, stability and reliability of the very best hardwoods. Accsys is presently operating a large scale wood acetylation test plant in the Netherlands. This is being used to supply potential customers and licensees across the globe with test quantities of Accoya, the company's branded wood product. Accsys has a further range of other processes which offer potential for future growth. A number of these technologies have existing patent protection or are subject to pending patent applications and all have been either proven at pilot-scale or subjected to independent validation by experts. Accsys is in the process of constructing full-size production plants for two of its technologies. Company chairman on Bloomburg - end of march AXS - Accsys Technologies PLC environmental science and technology that is going places. |
Posted at 18/4/2007 14:20 by gbb483 Re: the web site, I see they've put back the 'prelim announcement' and 'annual report' by a month each relative to last year, and they're still not brave enough to put a specific date on them. |
Posted at 18/4/2007 08:10 by betman Alfred McAlpine Plc (MCA LN), owner of the world's biggest slate quarry, rose 3.3 percent to 480 pence after Goldman, Sachs & Co. added the company to its ``conviction buy'' list and said investors overreacted to accounting irregularities. One website quotes target as 400p but thats an error and I think transcribed with the next share on the list, it was 588p and i will keep looking for the quote Goldmans comment isnt rocket science ! |
Posted at 13/2/2004 14:48 by skyship MIAMI - Thanks for those stats. Strange that HSBC should give the 2nd highest EPS - but come out with a SELL recommendation; especially considering their growth f/c for the current year provides a sub 10 PER. Another teenage scribbler who hasn't yet learnt to read the Markets!! 11th March now less than 4 weeks away; and after the Finals MCA will no doubt re-commence their share buybacks. Has to be right surely. Personally I think they should adopt a more generous dividend policy; that would certainly appeal to the fund managers - and to we retail investors for that matter. |
Posted at 15/1/2004 11:33 by skyship An interesting little tool I came across today:Steve - agree wholeheartedly with your Post. I suppose the only dampener might be the market as a whole falling back, or the UK economy proving problematic. Though with the extent of public expenditure it would seem that MCA's prospects might remain undimmed. They certainly seem to be picking up all the work they can handle - it is surely now just a case of showing that they can translate activity into reasonable profits. |
Posted at 21/11/2003 11:20 by washbrook Wanted to increase my holding again today what a pity moved up.Originally bought these in March 2000 when lot's of value stocks were cheap ,investors offloading good value stocks for tech plays.I bought at 190p. |
Posted at 17/10/2003 15:16 by skyship Hi Currypasty - what steered you in this direction. My view is pretty well encapsulated in my post of two days ago. What I do find interesting is the sheer volume on UP days in this stock; also the number of trades as it moves - plenty of 10,000 trades. After all, £30,000 is not a sum to be sneezed at for a retail investor; and an asset manager would surely be buying in larger trades. A drop through 300 would be short-term bearish to 280, however would anticipate good support at that level, prior to another forward move based on very sound fundamentals. |
Posted at 06/6/2002 14:32 by venomousviper I think mca better decide quickly how its going to give back the 100m to shareholders cos this is tanking fast with the next support level @ 328.5pShare buy backs have never done a great deal to enhance shareholder value infact they have the opposite effect see etp started buying shares back at 570p and by the time it had finished they were 425p. As the selling gains momentum with investors locking in gains stop losses activated all the shareholder value in the shareprice could be wiped out very quickly. |
Posted at 17/5/2002 09:19 by mcooke01 Cheer up VENOMOUSVIPER! Its still 419p, nowhere near 400p yet :-) It could still drop a bit though, if many current shareholders decide to take profits. There could be a limited number of new investors interested right now as the earnings estimates for the current year show negative growth, and there are a lot of new acquisitions are unproven, so many may wait to see how things turn out before buying. I'm hanging on to my shares though. |
