Posted at 08/11/2019 16:29 by vprt Yes, but with a third party lurking (as "a renewed approach" is explicitly stated).The 7p extra can be read as e.g. investors betting that there is, say, a 20%(+) chance of 35p(+) more. So a higher bid is perhaps not likely, but it certainly seems quite possible - and especially as the volume picked up to millions this afternoon. I agree - solid and steady. I suspect that shareholders may have struggled to value it accurately given the large adjustments items driving statutory profit into the red, and perhaps not fully appreciating the IT-driven growth opportunities. I first bought a few CTR shares in 2011 (at 143p) and added many times, so it's my third largest holding. Like you I was a happy long term shareholder, and now I will get the (quite nice) problem of redeploying the cash - as Lord John Lee recently wrote about in the FT (after having called the mysteriously low valuation) - credit to him, yet again. |
Posted at 08/11/2019 14:38 by galeforce1 It looks to me as if the significant shareholders in CTR have leaned hard on the private equity buyers and said 'if you want this deal to go through smoothly then raise your bid by 10%'.There might just be a counter-offer from another party, but I doubt it. So I've sold out today at £3.52. It's a nice profit, but I'm sorry to say goodbye this very solid business that pays a good divi and seems to have a promising future. |
Posted at 08/11/2019 07:21 by vprt 345p is more like it, yes! Happy and relieved I held onto 75% of my CTR stake hoping for an increased offer. Well done to David Marock and the board! |
Posted at 19/9/2019 07:49 by galeforce1 Great to see a profit here, but as JimdiGriz says above, it's sad to see another good, solid business leave the market. The valuation has been much too low.Another success for John Lee who has long held a position in CTR. |
Posted at 11/9/2019 07:47 by galeforce1 That all looks pretty healthy. Rising revenue and rising profits. Dividend 5%.With a Mcap of £175m this seems good value to me. The share price seems to be stuck in a range around 225. Hopefully one day we will brea out of this but in the meantime the dividend is a compensation for no capital appreciation. |

Posted at 13/3/2019 08:07 by its the oxman Results seem ok, this years no's reflected by the share price perhaps but next year comments suggest an in line performance which makes ctr look cheap - and div nudged up. Not sure what was expected really. |
Posted at 13/12/2018 07:32 by galeforce1 It’s got be a forced seller into a thin market. CTR looks good value here. Now yielding over 5%. |
Posted at 22/11/2018 08:49 by galeforce1 Looking like good value here at CTR. Yield at almost 5%.I wonder if the Capital Markets Day will lift the share price. |
Posted at 22/2/2017 09:29 by touche Great value entry point, director buying with results 9th March and juicy dividend paid in April. Building a position here over the next week or so |
