Exactly what I was thinking.

Where did he get them from?

What I don't understand, is where did this Timothy get his shares from ?

As there hasn't been that amount traded in a year with this company?

[jab118] 29/1/2010 14:17

Tim buys big.

Who is this dude?

The answer for Pugugly is probably Tesco.

Half-year report now published. They seem to be surviving ...

Anyone close to the company know who was/is their main customer mentioned in the rns of 16th Feb - Post 76. ??

Thanks in advance for any info.

[mctmct] 14/10/2009 09:23

It's very quiet. Anyone know if there's any news?

The share price is low because all the considerable profits - over £1m - are siphoned off as directors and management remuneration plus rents paid to a director .

Goodness knows, I have often thought that someone would be tempted to take it out if only for its full listing.Good luck.

Why is this share price so low ?

[outsider] 11/8/2009 09:50

How can you say that? Can you elaborate? They deal with the big corporates no problem! (I don't hold)

I told a friend owning a cosmetics company in which Creightons were interested,not to have anything to do with them. Their terms of business were amateurish and ridiculous.

desperately need another mm here, then we could be in bussiness .....

[jab118] 05/8/2009 10:07

cheap as chips.. with a insight of future growth here. imho

[jab118] 04/8/2009 16:09

I think the tick up is a desperate move by the mm's to get this profitable company noticed...

earlier in the year it was done with AVE at 2p level and they kept on ticking it up and down for a while then the market woke up and then whoosh !! now 29p

[mctmct] 24/7/2009 13:42

Today's rise can't have been triggered by the sale of 12k on LSE. Is someone buying on Plus?

[safman] 30/6/2009 12:41

i'd probably have a punt @ this considering todays results, but 1 mm on the damn thing makes it a little difficult..

saffy..

[jab118] 19/5/2009 12:51

I think you mm's are trying to get these on the investors RADAR!!!

Down 50% then back up the next.

I'm sure these market makers, know all the tricks in the book, in getting these noticed.

Good little profit making company, should be lot more than 2p (imhonesto)

Bloody spreads wide as the Grand Canyon!!!

[mctmct] 15/4/2009 10:57

The game goes on.

[dell314] 26/3/2009 13:16

A 2p spread on a 2.5p mid, FFS!!

It's about time the regulatory bodies did something about Winterfloods taking the p*ss with spreads.

AFAIK, you can't actually trade any of the stocks that they are lone MM on, as any time they get short of stock they just widen the spread to trap recent buyers and wait for them to sell up at a loss....

Rgds
dell

All IMHO, DYOR etc.

[jab118] 26/3/2009 13:16

Well whats going on here??

Creightons plc ("the Company")
Interim Management Statement


Creightons Plc today issues its interim management statement for the period from
1 October 2008 to 12 February 2009 ("the Relevant Period").


The Company's financial position has improved since the last published balance
sheet (31 September 2008), as inventory, borrowing and payables all improved,
along with an increase in retained earnings as a result of the profit achieved
on sales in the pre-Christmas period. This performance however was to have been
expected given the time of year and cyclical nature of the Company's business.
The level of stocks has been significantly reduced following sell through of the
pre-Christmas stock build, which enabled the Company to reduce borrowings for
the time being.


Sales in the four months to January 2009 however have been lower than for the
same period in the previous year as a result of a significant weakening of
consumer off-take and demand by the Company's main customers is clearly down.
There is no sign that this situation will recover in the short to medium term.


The Company continues to experience serious price pressures from suppliers,
although it is still striving to mitigate this wherever possible by seeking to
reduce non-essential overhead costs.


Neither the financial information on which this statement is based nor this
statement itself have been reviewed or reported upon by the Company's auditors.
