Posted at 27/9/2023 12:59 by typo56 How many holders got to subscribe to new shares at 159p last night?The RNS was issued after hours at about 17:07. My reading of it is you then had 80 minutes to see if your broker was able to obtain any. Hardly serious about offering to retail investors, were they? |
Posted at 26/2/2018 15:59 by frazboy Mach - and the most remarkable thing is, the shares are now up! I was previously considering this company for a short, but the appearance of the activist investor has put me off. Once I've listened to the webcast I may change my mind. |
Posted at 14/12/2017 13:47 by frazboy ouch...the current share price is only at approximately the level following on from the last profits warning. you can understand why investors may be less than 100% confident in the medium and long term projections of the board |
Posted at 31/10/2017 22:33 by koreaman exactly ledguy that is correct.In addition the big players are coming up as competition. What many investors don't understand is that DIA is just a niche player in the market for explosion protected equipments. They were just a boiler and PC board LED and Traffic light company only a few years ago before they ventured into explosion protected lighting. They disrupted the market at the time, when the big players were not yet ready with LED lighting products But that has changed dramatically and is getting continuously worse for DIA Players like STAHL, Eaton, Glamox all coming to the market with COMPLETE product portfolios i held DIA for a couple years becsuse i figured they would surely be a takeover target. Then the incoming CEO shocked the market with obscure messages about the business model of the company and the stock price tanked. i got out. some investors may have applauded that talk as decisiveness. i just saw it as a trick for him to shine in apparently, repeat apparently, rebuilding and improving the company. He has been spinning the news ever since. But truth will reveal itself. Mark my words: DIA will not grow |

Posted at 24/10/2017 08:52 by dangersimpson2 bbbbb,1H18 results were always going to be the key for me on this stock (once they had migrated production and we could see the impact of this and the other growth drivers). Seems high risk to me - H1 is historically the weaker half so if the production issues continue to 18H1 at all then 18H1 is likely to be below 17H1 - particularly since the FX tailwind in 17H1 looks like being a headwind in 18H1. Remember that the trading statement yesterday was warning on EBITDA which is a measure companies have a lot of freedom to report e.g. it excludes both capitilised development & ammortisation of capitilised development! Given the history of the company in asking investors to use heavily adjusted figures in their analysis of EBITDA it seems the cookie jar really was empty this time. So what happens if 18H1 comes in below 17H1 and the market sees this as a declining trend? If the company lost it's growth rating and returned to a EV/EBITDA of say 5 that would be a shareprice of around £2. Say however they return to growth and the shareprice increases 50%. That would require a multiple expansion to a further 25x EV/EBITDA. This is the sort of rating of the likes of Ocado, Abcam & Zoopla. To me that risk reward of hoping for a 18H1 rebound doesn't look good. |
Posted at 23/10/2017 21:12 by beeezzz Has the CEO made the right decision, regarding manufacturing changes, has quality been compromised. He needs to reassure the market he knows what he is doing, this is a solid business...Looks like many small investors were stopped out today. |
Posted at 23/10/2017 14:56 by walbrock82 Share price maybe down 16%, but the market is still valuing the business highly. Here’s why:Investors may not realise this, but between 2000 and 2004, their average market capitalisation was £50m when average profit was £10.5m. Contrast this to the past four years, their average market capitalisation is £230m with an average profit of £3.5m. So, between 2000-04, Dialight average PER is 5 times, whereas 2012-2016 gives a PER of 75 times. For more and other companies’ analysis, click |
