Posted at 01/2/2004 12:56 by robbiegoodwin The Business has rated this a buy. Andrew Griffiths has written the article and has long been a follower of the company. The increased exposure the company is getting should hopefully bring some new investors in and break the all important trading range. |

Posted at 11/12/2003 13:12 by irvbox Here it is and its good! Citywire tip ComputerLand is going from strength to strength as more medium-sized businesses outsource the running of their IT infrastructure, and in spite of a 200% rise since we first highlighted the opportunity, the shares still look good value. The company reported record interim profits this morning up 21% to £900,000 in spite of turnover falling slightly to £25.7 million because of pricing pressure in the hardware supply business. However ComputerLand (CPU) has seen strong growth in its contracted or outsourced services and in project-based services, and has plenty of interest in its outsourced offering. Earnings per share rose 19% to 6.2p and the company has increased its interim dividend by 23% to 1.35p per share. ComputerLand targets mid-sized companies, defined as those with 2,000-5,000 employees. Chairman and chief executive Graham Gilbert told Citywire that among these almost all are considering outsourcing their core IT infrastructure management and support at some point. Gilbert said the model has been proven by the larger companies and interest is picking up in the medium sized businesses. Customers include the UK Atomic Energy Authority, Brit Insurance, Egg, Experian and Manchester City Council. Project work such as upgrading a bunch of PC's from one version of Windows to another, is an important part of ComputerLand's offering, particularly as a service to its longer term customers. This side of the business has been more subdued in the past couple of years but Gilbert said there are definite signs of a pick up in the sh 111C ort-term order book. Competitors include Computacenter, Hewlett-Packard and IBM Global Services. However these three tend to specialise in larger, global companies with more than 10,000 employees and Gilbert said ComputerLand's offering is more tailored to the smaller player. Based on activity levels and the short-term order book, Gilbert was 'confident and bullish' about the rest of the year. Profit takers moved in first thing to take advantage of the shares' early rise to 211.5p. They are down 10.5p to 195p, valuing the business at £19.8 million. We highlighted the value in the shares a year ago at 69.5p, and reiterated their medium-term potential in April at 108.5p. We advised holding on at 147.5p in the summer. Citywire Verdict: ComputerLand has held its own in very tough times and continues to look well poised for a bigger take up in outsourced infrastructure management in the next couple of years. The shares look cheap compared with those of its far larger competitor Computacenter. As Citywire has reported, ComputerLand has attracted some shrewd investors this year, including AAA-rated Peter Webb who founded Unicorn Asset Management. He has been topping up recently and his Eaglet investment trust (EIN) holds 5% of the company. (continued...) The company's size means it will be below the radar screen for many institutional investors but it offers some interesting opportunities for anyone prepared to wait a couple of years and for those not averse to risk is still worth adding. |
Posted at 26/6/2003 15:51 by guru Yes - bit surprising its static. I think the stock is a well hidden secret with not many retail investors. Explains the lack of posts and not much trading activity. It does mean the stock is fairly stable. Maybe there will be some press comment tomorrow and that may spark some interest. Results are bloody good I must say and I am very happy. DYOR |
