Press FT on the Accounts



Concludes

* FT Comment

Unsigned accounts marred what should have been a satisfactory day for Charter's management. In spite of the tumble in sales and profits, compounded by restructuring costs, Charter ended the year with net cash of £51m (£52m). And the company, which for much of the past decade paid no dividends , felt able to edge up its final pay-out from 14p to 14.5p, giving a marginally improved total for the year of 21.5p (21p). A terrible year at Charter's main ESAB business forced wholesale job cuts as operating profits fell from £147m to £64.5m. But even here, Charter is starting to "put a few jobs back on" amid signs of a sustained, albeit weak, recovery. Investors can expect to profit from recovering sales and a steady dividend this year.

From The Times
January 30, 2010

extract ... concludes

Overall, Citigroup believes there is "limited" scope for share price falls among UK engineers and thinks the forthcoming full-year results season should be strong. Its preferences are for Charter, Cookson, IMI, Morgan Crucible and Smiths. Bodycote, whose shares it thinks fully valued, is its only "sell".

Who are the people buying/selling tiny amounts of shares all the time? Like a recent trade of 2 shares for example. Is it people trying to manipulate the price through AT trades in the order book?

Always the way. Stopped out at 562 yesterday then nice recovery today. Sometimes stoplosses are a pain in the ass.

I'd fancy some at £5 which is a fair price given the profit warning just under 2 months ago. At the same time the outlook has improved somewhat given the upbeat (not quite as bad) economic data recently.

CHTR now back to where it was before the profit warning. Had a beautiful run over the last couple of days, just sold mine for a nice profit, thanks!

Might buy in again after it's pulled back.

I must admit I'm still a bit pessimistic. I think a lot of stocks are still valued on the basis of old forecasts and P/Es based on current P and historical E ! I think there are a lot of downgrades - and resulting price adjustments - to come.

so top up while you can at these levels

I can't argue with what you're saying.I hoped we were reaching a point in the market where we didn't have to suffer the 15-20% ratchet down in stock price on the back of updates.Wishful thinking.This is my only industrial so i'll hold the balance for now.

Cookson is irrelevant to me - don't hold, don't follow it - I'm solely, or was, interested in this.

My point is that you won't know it's warts and all, or rather whether you've seen all the warts, for some time and, if the history of this sort of thing tells me anything it is that bad news is followed by at best a period of limbo and at worst by more bad news. Either way, I've sold : no point in holding a share and complaining about the management. The management is ultimately what you're buying and if you don't like them : sell, IMHO
