Dyson Share Discussion Threads

GB...strange comment...added more today although trade hasn't shown up yet, I think the news that banks are beginning to release funds to industry is more significant, short term.
Meanwhile, as an investement strategy, maybe we should start buying up old bangers.

From this week's pre-close trading update:

"The new functional organisation is proving to be cost-effective and as we focus on our core markets of Automotive Emissions, Energy and Industry, prospects for order book improvement are encouraging"

dys don't sell cars so lets all calm down

Thanks for your post Gary.Was not aware that FBB had no banning rights. However as you state he will most likely make his exit later today.
Best of luck with Dyson.I did look here many times when they shot up to close 30s from single figures,but volumes never persuaded me

gluefactory,

I can understand your unhappiness with Treacle - I did look in following the results and saw that he was up to his antics.

The thread is part of the FBB so I have no banning rights - believe me, there are times I would have used them if I did!

I'm not sure that there is that much mileage in ramping RTS at the moment - they have cash above mkt cap but a history of burn - I would have thought he would be making an exit soon....

Regards,

G.

Hi Garth.Can you do me a favour and go to the RTS thread which you created. There is a serial ramper there called Treacle,who I would request you to ban from your site.Should you feel it is relevant to ban me from the site I have no problem but I detest his presence on any thread with his constant pump and dumping

Garth - It is my understanding from the Company that they are doing their utmost to obtain the best deal possible from the banks and that the situation will be clarified by no later than the publication of the results for the past year.
Warm regards - CH.

Of course, what would really stimulate the share price would be our FD reporting that the company had agreed new terms with its bankers.....

Posted on 14th March - The Times this morning - Lord Mandelson is preparing to put a £2,000 bounty on used cars in an attempt to stimulate the motor industry. Senior government sources said that talks were at an advanced stage and a deal could be announced in the Budget on April 22.

sleveen, I think they have their work cut out displaying cost containment measures together with some sort of forward looking return to profitability so as to get the support from the banks. They are bound to be suffering badly with the near mothballing of car manufacturing and I don't see any improvement this year but with bank support this will return to profitability in time and the share price could/should increase in many multiples.
This is one of a number of bombed out shares I have recently bought into on the premice that one or two may fail but several will bounce back big time.

[sleveen] 31/3/2009 09:03

The new functional organisation is proving to be cost-effective and as we focus on our core markets of Automotive Emissions, Energy and Industry, prospects for order book improvement are encouraging.

First 2 paras we knew about however the 3rd para is hinting at good things to come, which IMHO is not reflected in the current share price

PS I topped up at 10.2p a few weeks ago.

PRE-CLOSE TRADING STATEMENT


Dyson Group Plc (LSE:DYS), the materials technology company, expects to announce
its final results in respect of the year ending 31 March 2009 in June 2009.
Prior to entering its close period, the Company today issues the following
trading statement.


Further to the announcements on 30 January 2009 and 17 February 2009, following
close monitoring and cost control across the business, the Directors expect to
report an underlying pre-tax loss broadly in line with management expectations
in respect of the year ending 31 March 2009. Business conditions continue to be
challenging and, in light of this, the Group has already implemented significant
cost and cash containment measures.


Discussions with the Company's two banks, Lloyds TSB and Svenska Handelsbanken
are continuing with regard to debt facilities and banking covenants.


The new functional organisation is proving to be cost-effective and as we focus
on our core markets of Automotive Emissions, Energy and Industry, prospects for
order book improvement are encouraging.

yes, garth please explain what 'mutual consent/advantage' means!!

the language the board pumps out isn't going to encourge investors.

I would not be suprised to see a slow slide towards 8p in the short term

[garth] 09/3/2009 11:20

Gordon,

The property sale did not "fall through". It was cancelled with mutual consent and to mutual advantage.

diesel the risks of DYS going bust are high, like many uk manufactoring firms they are struggling even with reduced working pratices and the continued slump in the auto industry.

as with all risky stocks if they can hold out then yes it would be very rewarding, however recent statements have given no cash indications and their property sale has fallen through hence the flat trading line.

[diesel] 07/3/2009 15:57

unless this is going bust, which I believe is highly unlikely, then this is an excellent example of a bombed out stock that is worth taking a close look at and possibly tucking away for some spectacular recovery gains over the next 2-3 years.

[sleveen] 07/3/2009 15:47

HMG have "insured" £250bn of Lloyds toxic debt on the condition that the bank lends £28bn to companies over the next few years.

Probably helps DYS since Llloyds are one of 2 main bankers.
