Almost there. If the housebuilding market remains stable then this still seems undervalued to me.

Tenner beckons again , been a while.

Sorry.sp not so. Predictive text.

[shaker44] 06/7/2017 08:43

Yep! When I read it before open I thought so would take a hit. But the honesty and progress seems well received. Guess the market was expecting newish CEO to throw the kitchen sink at it, as so often happens

Good share price response to RNS. Fairly positive update IMO. Anyone out there ?

Some analysts target 1100+, but your timing may be good. As Rothschild said, you never get poor taking a profit.

Traded some out at 965 ; been a good recent run but wonder if it will temporarily stall again.

Oh it's only fun.

[sirhedgealot] 08/5/2017 12:05

Hehe. I am long here. Sometimes I short with Derivatives.

[sirhedgealot] 08/5/2017 12:04

Hehe. Sometimes I short value that I hold with CFDS. I'm very much long here mate :)

That doesn't sound like hedging ; change your name!

[sirhedgealot] 25/4/2017 11:53

No doubt things will come good.

[wad collector] 24/4/2017 10:35

As you say ; that is quite a significant buy. More reason to hold.

Mr Fitzgerald starts the ball rolling by buying £1.25M worth of shares. This is the guy who spent £0.65M on GFRD's shares at ca. £9 the day after the Brexit vote. A very shrewd operator indeed. He must see something compelling in BVS to bring him out of retirement. How many of us would do it, lol

Announcement of general election is good news?....new yearly high today!

[wad collector] 05/4/2017 16:14

Also hidden in the rns was the in-line update and a positive sounding statement;


"This balance sheet optimisation programme is expected to accelerate the Group's delivery of an improved return on capital employed.

The Board intends to return to shareholders any excess capital which results from this programme and from improved cash generation from operations"

Prospective yield of 5.3% covered 2x if the brokers are correct. Looks like a reason to hold.

love that in the same rns they announce merger rejection and a stolen CEo!

Greg Fitzgerald did a great job at Galliford Try over many years. Invested here now he is CEO.

[nigelbarker] 05/4/2017 07:45

galliford might well come back !

[shaker44] 05/4/2017 07:35

They were always going to have to pay. Really I don't care so long as he unlocks the hidden value. Not difficult given his experience.
Good move. I will hold now.
He also has all the contacts to leverage a higher galliford bid. For sure he negotiated a parachute!

I've just sold out at a small loss. Surprised to see the share price move up this morning after the news and since I got in in the first place hoping for a bid battle, happy to have the funds back for something else.
