Card Factory Share Discussion Threads

Moonpig trading update is okay.They continue to pump money into technology which Card does not need to do so Card is definitely the bigger profit business. Happy to hold and add on opportunities.

Dividends will drive share higher as long as they keep increasing in value more people will hold and increase stability.

It's also expiry day with some spreadbet companies for Sept positions.

There's always a seller. We are all sellers!News brings volume which allows people to trim positions.

[leeson31] 16/9/2024 09:38

But there was a seller previously....now we know they're out.

Wondering what’s going to move this further, as in the past good results have only contributed to its demise in share price Hopefully them days are behind us.

Couple of big buy/sell's ramping up the vol today

[hardupfedup] 12/9/2024 10:11

miserly volume today ?

[s34icknote] 10/9/2024 17:36

[gswredland] 10/9/2024 14:41

Thanks balcony

[balcony] 10/9/2024 13:08

Results on the 24th.

DividendMax has pencilled in 1.5p payable on 12 Dec - and 4p final payable on 27 Jun 25

[s34icknote] 06/9/2024 17:38

Earning this year 15/16p ?Third of profits in first half two thirds in second half .4.5p div second half 2.25p div first half . That's 1/3 rd . I think they may be aggressive with the payout.Pre covid was 7.5p plus 5 to 15p specials And they had 140 million debt . When are half year results ?

[omron] 06/9/2024 17:01

Final dividend last year was 4.5p - there was no interim dividend. EPS is c14p

[s34icknote] 06/9/2024 16:28

Interims last year were just over 5 p?

[omron] 06/9/2024 15:33

I wish that were realistic but given how much of the profits come in the second half of the year and that management has stated a 25/75 interim/final divi split, I am expecting an interim dividend of 1.25p possibly 1.5p

[s34icknote] 06/9/2024 13:20

Way undervalued Looking forward to the 2.75 p interim div

[bbonsall] 02/9/2024 19:59

For example, Moonpig EPS is less than 10p and the PE ratio is around 20 leading to a share price today of £2.07. CARD has a lot of unappreciated value still to be rewarded, let alone future growth.

[bbonsall] 02/9/2024 19:45

It is EPS that should be driving the share price but still isn’t! The PE ratio is still only about 9 on last year’s EPS of 14p. The average PE for UK Specialist Retailers is 19. So to be in line with its peers CARD share price could easily justify £2 plus. Even more because of the strong cash flow and massive reduction in debt.

[grahamytrain] 02/9/2024 17:22

Trying to think how good results need to be to move this higher? We know the company is doing well and is well managed, its politics and takeover speculation that’s going to drive this now.

[grahamytrain] 30/8/2024 15:56

Yeah, think the whole market has one eye eye on the budget and is suppressing things.

[harry_david] 30/8/2024 15:09

Decided to sell a few today, nothing against Card, just that all this talk about Capital Gains Tax made me think I should lighten off slightly. Still have over half for the long haul as they are definitely in other circumstances a screaming buy.

[grahamytrain] 29/8/2024 06:57

Nvidia earnings almost doubled and still the price dropped, doh. What impact on the market/card factory today ???

[beachbum1978] 22/8/2024 14:53

Yes, it’s a similar trading pattern, particularly in the morning, to when Blundy bought in. Plus had the RNS about Jupiter.?? Make your own assumptions.

Seems like there’s a dump and buy almost instantaneously.
