thanks for posting but doesn't seem to be material in terms of cash

[gozo] 26/10/2020 15:40

Agreed....it's highly unusual for capita to be bucking the trend of the wider market!.....still 40 minutes to the bell though.Need 32p for break even!!

Capita may be forced to sell prestigious property developer at a loss following allegations that its bosses 'destroyed' the company
The outsourcing firm bought GL Hearn in a deal worth up to £30m in 2015
GL Hearn is one of half a dozen or so businesses Capita intends to offload to raise £200m

if we close blue today I think its a good sign. it's a pretty weak day on the markets

90% institutional ownership doesn't help if institutions are net sellers.Don't get me wrong - I agree with the 150p target.

[aljm] 26/10/2020 09:13

where did you get that share ownership list from Hod ?

[hodhasharon] 26/10/2020 08:34

I have a 150p two year target on CPI.

where did you hear that?

[jotoha2] 25/10/2020 11:16

Some talk that NHS and CPI are being lined up together to move into the Track and Trace arena , it's worth around £200-£400 million , nice if it comes of .

Just forget about the £1+ preCovid

As far as daily trade goes , it is busy 2 way traffic.

[dealy] 23/10/2020 13:14

I think so as well. I'm just amazed they are down at this level

[action] 23/10/2020 12:59

Tide is turning. if market improves in coming weeks this may be in 30p+

[dealy] 23/10/2020 11:06

that's nothing. These were 31p just 2 weeks ago

[action] 23/10/2020 10:06

Did teach 25p+ just.

[dealy] 23/10/2020 09:59

everything is recovering today. This one just forgotten?

[action] 23/10/2020 08:27

I will wait till next update b4 doing anything. Not adding or selling for now. I reckon Jan21 will be good for share price

[owlbaby] 22/10/2020 15:01

this time last year they were claiming to be on track to turn around

ACTION - have a look at the last update & the one before that & factor in handling of ESS, think about what the plan for the P&L to be profitable would be without ESS. Its blank. IMO this business has a lot to offer, I don't agree it is necessarily a basket case but sentiment must have seen through management - hampered they say by the complexity of it, Covid 19, desire to get away from LT contracts into high value add consultancy & digitalisaion with explaining their inability to control head office or "rationalisation" costs. It would survive well & even prosper with different leadership.


It can't have help to have G4S announce by comparison:

G4S plc: Continued resilient trading and contract win performance for the first nine months of 2020

The Group’s revenues have remained resilient through the first nine months of the year. Secure Solutions revenues, which account for 93% of Group revenues, remain broadly in line with 2019. Group revenues were just 2% lower overall and this was more than offset by tight direct and indirect cost control and reduced interest costs, the latter reflecting both refinancing benefits and the Group’s improving net debt position. As a result, the Group’s underlying earnings remain ahead of the prior year for the first nine months of 2020. Although the global economic outlook remains uncertain, the Group’s performance in the first nine months demonstrates the strength of the business. Contract wins

In the first nine months of 2020, G4S has retained and won new contracts with an annual revenue contract value of £2 billion, including the recently announced ten year, £30 million per annum contract to deliver custody and rehabilitation services at HMP Five Wells in the UK.

basket case imo.

[aljm] 22/10/2020 13:22

CPI is stronger now, especially if they can sell the Software side, than they were this time last year, it is sentiment pushing it down.

When last update it touched 50p. So what has changed so drastically to predict 10p now pls?
