Breedon Share Discussion Threads

Half year numbers are very encouraging, should easily beat market expections of PBT of £16.5m for the full year, time for a further top up and lock away for the future

Half year trading update this coming Thursday (17/7).

Of course they did - they're not daft. Breedon should do very well over the coming years.

[2breakout] 03/6/2014 13:15

Directors bought a load at a good price as well!

[baxter99] 03/6/2014 12:18

Contract win! Marvellous news.

[baxter99] 03/6/2014 08:19

Obviously a wise man!

"Neil Woodford is seeking talks with his former employer Invesco Perpetual over the transfer of some of his favourite shareholdings."

Interesting to note some of the companies mentioned in this piece are Raven Russia (RUS), Breedon Aggregates (BREE), Homeserve (HSV), Burford Capital (BURF), e-Therapeutics (EXTP) and Oxford Pharmascience (OXP)

citywire:

He already has 8.435% of BREE

From the RNS...

"This is exactly the kind of acquisition we're always on the lookout for. It builds our regional presence, extends our product range and gives us access to new markets, whilst adding further value for our shareholders. The Company is continuing to pursue other similar opportunities elsewhere in the UK."

I have always had confidence in the Breedon's management (I bought more last week)

RNS

Breedon Aggregates ("Breedon" or the "Company"), the UK's largest independent aggregates business, has acquired Huntsman's Quarries Limited ("Huntsmans"), a long-established aggregates company based in the North Cotswolds, for a cash consideration of £15 million.

This might be of interest:

[2baffled] 20/5/2014 23:04

So, Jefferies analyst Sam Cullen takes 20% out of Breedon?
Who's their paymaster?
Can't be INVESCO ......... Can it??

[elmfield] 20/5/2014 22:27

Thank you so much for that,
May explain weakness but still want to add.
See what tomorrow brings, not rushing.

[2baffled] 20/5/2014 22:02

Hmmmm!
Only found this today [dated Michelle McGagh on May 15, 2014 at 05:01]

'Breedon Aggregates downgraded on share price valuation'.

[dannyheywood] 20/5/2014 18:42

elmfield, looking to add & my question is the same as yours, When? We could be close to a bottom somewhere around here. Oversold now.

[elmfield] 20/5/2014 18:33

40p.
Hmm, time to start buying!

[elmfield] 19/5/2014 16:04

Still down trend here,
Where is the bottom?

[elmfield] 16/5/2014 14:07

Thinking of third top up,
When? Now that is a question.

[konkel] 04/5/2014 08:00

Neil Woodford has bought 85m shares for his new venture.....excellent shareholder to have on board. Of course he was one of the early backers of Breedon at Invesco so he knows the management well.

[2baffled] 01/5/2014 22:52

imo.
Independence or not.
Over-all .........
'Contracts must benefit the local community'.

[2baffled] 01/5/2014 21:33

re. post 95
Breedon latest 'risk management' policy worth a read, imo..

"Lloyds Banking Group, Barclays, Standard Life, Royal Bank of Scotland, the Macfarlane Group packaging business and Breedon Aggregates have all listed independence in their risk management sections."

Cut from here ......

[elmfield] 01/5/2014 20:55

Before starting to add can anyone cast a light
on how this will do should scotland vote to leave the u.k?
Going to make life a little harder than it already is?

[elmfield] 01/5/2014 10:33

Yes,
It is a surprise seeing it move so fast!
Excellent aim isa hold.

[sportbilly1976] 01/5/2014 09:56

for a hold, there is a lot of buying at present

I guess the analysts are liking what they are hearing at the moment (even though nothing new is being said) ;)

[elmfield] 30/4/2014 17:28

Still looks great,
Probably more or less a hold now.
