Bridgepoint Share Discussion Threads

Share buybacks are an irrelevance - it says to me that the company can't find suitable homes for the dosh they have!

[boozey] 24/11/2023 16:25

One would like to think so Toffeeman. There is also a share buyback to support the progress.

[toffeeman] 24/11/2023 10:05

Presume the delay (if it is that) is because they are working on something - the 25% rise over the past month seems to point (sic) that way.

We were due a trading statement a week ago based on the November announcement for the last two years.

Private Equity is well known for driving high IPO prices which then collapse post flotation. Numerous examples of this of which Bridgepoint is one. The buybacks plus significant director buying and the recent acquisition may hopefully suggest the price has bottomed out.

Buyback continues but is not having much effect. I wonder where the share price would be if the buyback programme wasn't on.

Someone is confident, the endless stream of hefty director buying continues. This time including £200,000 from the CFO. Finance Directors by definition are always careful with their money!

very significant share purchase by the Chairman

Market seems to like todays news.

Strong rebound from here?

[its the oxman] 25/7/2023 15:52

Hit hard today. Back to 190p. Bargain territory perhaps?

[its the oxman] 22/3/2023 12:14

More director buying.

[essentialinvestor] 17/3/2023 17:20

* likely not even pocket change buying that amount.

[its the oxman] 17/3/2023 16:45

Shares of Bridgepoint Group fall as much as 6.6% to 201.2p, top pct loser on London's midcap index* Peel Hunt cuts rating to "hold" from "buy", cuts target price to 220p from 340p* Brokerage says expected decline in FY23 and FY24 earnings reflect negative momentum for Bridgepoint* Also flags co's slow fundraise for flagship PE fund* Co on Thursday reported 13.6% rise in FY revenue withEBITDA up 23.2%Seems a little at odds with tone of results I listened to.

that 60,000 share director buy could have been better timed ... !

[its the oxman] 17/3/2023 11:18

Anyone any ideas why this down c.195p after results. Seems strange.

[se81] 16/3/2023 07:08

Strong set of results in the context of the share price? I'm seeing a beat on top & bottom lines?

[toffeeman] 07/3/2023 16:04

I invested to get a lot more than 300

[its the oxman] 07/3/2023 13:54

Chart has a double bottom and suggests a move higher above 300p might be expected. Can but hope.

[toffeeman] 02/3/2023 13:12

It really doesn't want to go above 250!

[spectoacc] 30/12/2022 06:59

Opportunity Cost - is a lot else crying out for our money atm.

Mine's majority in cash.

My concern with PE is mean reversion - 20 years of making 10% pa, history says that can't last. They don't have a magic sauce.

None of that is comment directly on BPT - PHLL (a slightly different beast) looks interesting too.

[its the oxman] 30/12/2022 00:28

Is bpt a buy yet?

[typo56] 10/9/2022 07:59

Thanks. I've just noticed that. Wish I'd checked my FTSE email after close on Thursday.
