Wise Management ....save some for a rainy day ...

I always expect nothing therefore am never disappointed !

[battlebus2] 10/11/2011 08:16

Cash is certainly king at the minute that's why i want a bigger dividend aghh!

[ignoble] 10/11/2011 08:14

Aye , ever increasing cash pile ...bodes well for continuing share buybacks, IMHO

[keithfox] 10/11/2011 08:09

£2.8m will hardly make a dent in their cash pile which is increasing every month. Bodes well for a much bigger one next year

[battlebus2] 10/11/2011 07:46

Yeah not the 16p we expected but beggars can't be chosers.

[ignoble] 10/11/2011 07:17

There's the divi !

[ignoble] 02/11/2011 06:56

Aye , good to be kept up to date . Amazing how diversified the need for their services has become.

The latest blog almost reveals all about Andrews Sykes! Keep 'em coming lads!

[battlebus2] 01/11/2011 08:21

Markets markets decided to wait till a good day when i'll pay more.

[keithfox] 01/11/2011 08:12

[ignoble] 31/10/2011 08:07

Tks Keith & duly noted ...

[keithfox] 31/10/2011 08:04

Dont take any notice of longer range forecasts until you see it here.

[battlebus2] 30/10/2011 10:39

Ah that's the positive sign i was looking for! In for more myself on Monday. O/T any sign of that dreadful snow and freezing temps soon?

[keithfox] 30/10/2011 10:37

price firming up because i've bought some more!

[ignoble] 28/10/2011 08:18

Fingers crossed ...divi or the price firming up ...either of those and I'm a happy bunny !
Both would be even better but I mustn't be too greedy .
Expect nothing and you are never disappointed

Creeping up Ignoble divi could be soon.

[ignoble] 25/10/2011 11:25

C'mon me Beauty ...let's get moving again , lol ...

Aggreko came out with a rather upbeat statement this morning.
Whilst I readily admit that Aggreko is a somewhat different animal to Sykes , still good to read that a Company in a similar sort of field is doing better than expected.

A little disappointed that they haven't really stepped up the share buyback. The last time they were at work they moved the share price up markedly but then suddenly stopped. Whereas LSC on a much higher rating still carried on up. Perhaps a bumper dividend is on its way. With net cash and huge cashflows I don't see why we cant have 20p+ returned.

[jeff h] 20/10/2011 12:00

Good find that ignoble.

So we are up and running in Italy and Switzerland.

Must be a reason why they haven't entered Germany - huge market.

Your £17.50 a share dream more likely if they did!

[ignoble] 20/10/2011 10:37

Thinking on , it all makes sense to move ASY into the regions where LSC has a presence.
Would think many , many businesses are on contract to LSC for annual fire safety checks and all that goes with it.
Over time, would assume that many of these institutions would buy into ASY air con service contracts , heating and the like. Hope so ...

Just hope that I live long enough to hopefully see all my thoughts come to fruition (and also ASY share price @ £17.50 as per LSC)

Ever the optimist ...

No advice intended and all that jazz !

[ignoble] 20/10/2011 10:29

Sykes advertising for someone to open a new Depot in Switzerland .
Makes a lot of sense as LSC are active in that Country...

Applications for the position were set to close at end of July , hopefully things are moving along

Certainly appears that Management is not resting on it's laurels.

[ignoble] 10/10/2011 08:55

Well spotted !

[keithfox] 10/10/2011 08:54

Would have said that, but I thought that was pushing it for November.
