Cash received. Over & out. |
Well, I'm a bit chagrined to say the lest. I looked at this recently, for first time in many months and nearly bought a few last week, as it semed clear there would be a re-rating at some point, but held off, as it could have been years away. Doh!
Anyways, well done Siskin and other holders. |
Yes, powwow, there's life here. £9.50 looks OK to me - I bought at £5.50 and the possibility of a buy-out is one of the reasons I bought. What do you think? |
is this board alive |
I guess we can expect a fall tomorrow after the post-close RNS......... |
Point taken about the spread rules, Wiganer, but I see that it has just got worse today - now 600 v 900!! How can this be justified? More importantly, in terms of possible takeovers etc, does it matter? |
Sorry posted on wrong site ,thought I was on Bellway thread. |
 What does anyone know about rumoured talks of the takeover of Telford Homes.I have seen nothing in press just what I have heard on building sites.Anyone?
Would be good.This is fits in with our best peforming part of our business geographically.
Pasted their last trading update below.Anyone enlighten me?
Trading Update
Telford Homes Plc issues the following trading update for the year ending 31
March 2007. Interim results will be announced on 21 November 2006.
The directors are pleased to announce that the strong start to the year reported
at the time of our Annual General Meeting on 6 July 2006 has continued with
sales progressing well. In particular, all 179 private homes at our development
in High Street Stratford, OneStratford, are now sold with 175 contracts
exchanged and the remaining four proceeding to contract.
In addition, we have secured an enhanced planning consent at our major
development in South Woodford, Queen Mary's Gate, increasing the number of homes
in the development from 441 to 498. Although we have not yet begun marketing of
the private apartments (the launch is at the end of September), we have already
registered enquiries from more than 800 prospective purchasers, indicating very
strong interest in this development. We have already sold 14 of the 16 private
townhouses that form the first phase of the development.
New land opportunities are continuously being appraised as we seek to extend our
development pipeline; we have recently exchanged contracts to acquire another
site close to the future Olympic Park which we hope to develop in the medium
term.
As a result of successful trading to date, the directors expect the interim
results to be very strong with profits weighted towards the first half of the
year. In addition, we are confident that our results for the year ending 31
March 2007 will exceed current market expectations. |
I wasn't aware there were stock market rules re spreads; I've seen far worse spreads than COM's. |
normally companies only obliged to confirm a bid not speculation of bid.I expect Comland will devolve itself back into a private company again,as they did with Banner Homes (where comland span off from.)
They devalue land values on books as cost values when they are a quoted company ,then ,when they go back a to private company and they relize real hidden land values.
I surprised the current spread falls in line with stock market rules.Perhap the Market Makers have had the nod. |
Does anyone know if there is a time limit within which the company has to issue a progress report (or a lack-of-progress report) following the "possible offer" announcement made on 18th August?
