Seems astonishing that there is no RNS. Must be issued today surely.Great news even if the company do not want to announce it.

So, when will the final Full Year Results for the year ended 31 March 2020 be announced?
If they will be announced at all?

Its worrying that no date has been announced yet...

Short positions under 0.5% do not have to be disclosed, so it is guesswork as to whether all those you list (apart from GLG) are still open. In the case of Immersion, they reported their step reduction from 0.95 to 0.46 in under two months, so highly speculative to suggest they have not now exited entirely.

Yep big fan of this stock. Hasn't delivered yet, but only a matter of time. Interesting that the shorters are departing too.

At this price, solid stock. I like it.

[drk1] 09/6/2021 09:00

I concur & with the shorting stock now at a two year low (currently 0.59%), slightest whiff of good news should act as rocket fuel for the share price ;-)

I'm just waiting patiently for this to go POP!

[our haven] 07/6/2021 07:10

I see that, according to the news feed, results Friday.I am now quite confused if this is true.

The more delayed, the better for shareholders.

Seems good news are on the cooking.

HiIt was expected an update of earnings, appreciated if any one can confirm the earning report is to be announced on 16/6/2021

Judging by the share price, nothing has leaked but even a whiff of good news should see the share price take off from here. I'd also like to hear positive updates on the potential asset sales, which if progressing,should also help the share price ;-)

The old addage "bad numbers take longer to add up than good numbers"?

"Our Haven", BAB announced a delay to the Prelims on 13/04/21

"We will set out further details of the above at our Preliminary Results, the publication of which is likely to be delayed as a result of COVID-19 working constraints and the large number of potential adjustments under consideration in our CPBS. We will prioritise quality of reporting over speed".

Poikka - I agree - consolidate and focus on core service offerings - that's when we'll see a return to share price growth and profit. Full article here...........

[poikka] 04/5/2021 10:02

That's the spirit, focus the company. It's been such a mish mash of services businesses alongside what should be a focus on defence - all IMHO, of course.
