I guess the question is, will next weeks results finally draw a line under this somewhat accident prone company.
I am watching but won't be putting a penny in until I see them.
If they are decent then it could run back to the 100p region.

Yes Dobbie looked remarkably relaxed and they seem very excited about the Canoodle social discovery business.

couldnt help but think it was engineered as some sort of retort to the bbc video.

Yes, great, J777J. Thanks for finding and sharing.

Impressive: one certainly does not get a sense of a Company in danger of going to the wall. There is a clear mismatch between share price and prospects. Hopefully that will start to resolve in the next few days :-)

Very interesting video on cupid from the FT....

Of course a 100p mbo bid on thursday would inflict revenge on the shorts.

J7777 you have more knowledge about this stock than most people I have 6 figures in this and the market cap is lower than the share price I am very bemused but I will wait because there will be a buy out but not at the price We want but it will be bigger than trusco paid at 80p the company results will not disappoint

the last 9 months have been a big enough storm.

[j777j] 12/9/2013 22:38

Results next Thursday should bring plenty of news on the company revamp and maybe further on that potential distribution to long suffering shareholders.




Bill Dobbie, Chief Executive of Cupid plc, said:

"The disposal of the Casual Assets is a significant positive step for the Group. The bulk of our M&A and investment over the past few years has been in the area of niche and mainstream sites, and this will continue to be our area of focus going forward.

"The proceeds from the sale will allow us to further enhance the remaining Group by strengthening our brands and also improving and widening the customer proposition. The consideration also gives us the potential to provide shareholders with further returns. We have built a strong, revenue generating Group and we very much look forward to driving further growth within our mainstream and niche sites over the coming period."

[the monkster] 07/9/2013 14:20

£1 a share would be nice

[cammy3] 07/9/2013 12:06

Anyone expecting a special dividend when results are released. They did say they would consider following disposal of casual assets.

[the monkster] 06/9/2013 23:39
