sorry not trying to shoot you down
i agree CR valuation method is different than both of ours

i am happy with the pe ratio as it stands and the dividend
more of the same to come i think
xan had irs results out today and by any method cpu is UV compared to them
look at TO and profits
though it is a much bigger company and it's contracts are larger andover longer time frame
cpu would make a nice fit to xan but imho outsourcing is growing as more companies look to cut costs
so i guess cpu and xan can survive independently with plenty of work for both companies

xansa is a similar company but valuation is way higher than cpu's
surely cpu has to be a bid tgt for them

CPU are certainly not in an ex-growth sector. IT hardware maintenance service may be but outsourcing is certainly a growth area with good margins especially in the medium enterprise market. I know CPU and work in this sector (but not for CPU) and as for outsourcing goes, my company has never been busier.

For the record I don't own shares in CPU right now but they are now on my watch list.

I think the Strip-out-Cash valuation is spurious. This could be particulary misleading for newbies. Without the £7M or so cash, the company couldn't meet its current liabilities and would be in Negative Equity (shareholders' equity be £4.4M, of which £940k is Intangible assets.

To be fair the current price offers good value, but don't delude ourselves - CPU, while doing a good job at the moment, is operating in an ex-growth industry. Margins pressure won't go away any time soon.

Looks like the full year dividend will be at least 8.5p, half a p more than I assumed earlier.

Should be reratewd on these results and the visibilty of earnings.Do remember Microsoft likely to launch a new operating system next year which will imply significant work for CPU...cheap as chips as they say!

i am hoping for 8p eps
4x divi cover for an increased divi of 2p
and always a chance of a takeover as this is way to cheap
you can't buy anything online either

Robbie,

Is it worth picking up any before the AGM? Well, possibly: with a dividend of 8p likely next year the yield at this price (180p) is around 4.45%. (This year's dividend was 6p, next year's might be anywhere above 7p (4%).) There might be another 20p special dividend coming sometime but don't count on it.

If you are a UK citizen then if you hold the shares for 2 years they need not be included in your estate when calculating Inheritance Tax (as long as they do not get a main listing... but why should they? they don't need to raise funds, which is maybe the main reason for a company transferring out of AIM to the main listing).

New contracts with O2, Comet and Focus will not only bring in extra earnings but is free advertising and will raise the company profile.

Does that sound any good to you?

Add to that:-
1. the feeling the company likes to surprise on the upside...and
2. this is not a "Jam Tomorrow" company, it is delivering increasing eps and positive cash flow right now.
3. Oops, I forgot to mention the several million cash in the bank, £7m to £8m which is worth 70-80p per share.
