good HY report.

Tong already filtered here - looks like he is wasting his time posting anything.
Great insights from other posters.

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 19:16

Bon voyage - thank goodness. Your investing acumen will be sorely missed. Lol.

[mg1982] 14/9/2021 19:14

Reckon my market timing is better than Tong's without the arrogance.

Last time I'll be responding to him - promise.

Ive filtered him for good.

Thanks guys

Yeah he's in irritant - constantly telling us what a great trader he is. I prefer to keep a low profile as those that make the most noise are rarely the best traders

Tong is in love with the sound of his own voice, no-one else is the slightest bit interested. Moreover he writes offensively. PLEASE just filter him like most of us have, he (and, I'm afraid, even your responses to him) simply clutter up this board and spoil it for the rest of us. Really the moderator should ban him, though I guess that's too much to ask.

And dear don't forget your paper profits are not yours until you cash in. Not that you will get it but just reminding you Toby.

[mg1982] 14/9/2021 17:52

If someone had held EKF for exactly a year they'd be sitting on at least a 60% gain.

I wish all my investments were like this.

So yeah Tong you carry on lying so that people can see through you more easily

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 17:13

Good day in the office chaps. After avoiding a long year on a useless stock, it finally decided to spring up to life today. Goes to show timing is everything. Hola caballeros

[sharw] 14/9/2021 17:04

MG1982 - just filter her/him like the rest of us have.

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 16:30

Isn't it annoying when an absolute tool who has been floating on a lifeless stock for a year doesn't appreciate the wake up call? Lol.

[mg1982] 14/9/2021 16:04

isn't it annoying that when this guy with a Tong gets into buying a share he has to post every nonsensical thing you can think about but when we have reputable posters posting valuable insights over a long period he mocks them?

Beware new holders

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 15:56

Tremendous volume.

[rivaldo] 14/9/2021 14:14

Happy to continue holding this outstanding company for the long-term (assuming nothing dramatic happens). The chart over the last 18 months says all that's needed about how EKF's prospects have transformed - partly fortuitously it must be said - and how the company's strategy is paying off in spades.

And shareholders have benefited twice over taking into account the various spin-offs, with more likely over time.

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 14:05

86.80 offered. Yes - it is a válid breakout to all time highs. Now let's see how this baby will hold and whether we get a decent follow up tomorrow (very important).

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 12:39

Putting my money where my mouth is. Just upgraded to full exposure (keeping it on an even tighter leash than before to keep %risk at same level as when I was half way in). Since this is a game of odds - they do imply this is very probably THE moment this baby meaningfully breaks out (following a very very long year for a good few on here:). If not - protecting one's backside is the name of the game. As the wise man said ... avoiding defeat lies in our own hands, the chance of victory is provided by Providence itself. Come on EKF!

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 12:25

Knocking on the heaven's door?Wan - this is where you should be at your loudest. When price action is VERY close to validate your thesis pal. Only Mr Market's vote makes or loses one a few copper coins. Tic toc fellas - will it or won't it?

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 11:32

Good volumes substantiating today's move. As the wise man said, volumes are the equivalent of votes at different price levels.

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 10:55

Like I said earlier, it's now or never time. Have to say the price is indeed acting as it should after a very long time. No guarantees of course but it looks like we could really break out v strongly today. It hasn't happened in a long while but ekf is the only stock that has all my full attention today.

[wan] 14/9/2021 09:26

To be clear re my typo comment, it's not the amount per se, which is down to the changes in working capital and the increase in inventory (I am not an accountant), which is ultimately a result of the increase in order volume and also to ensure security of component supply (which is obviously paramount).

In other words, presumably that will show up in the second half, hence the boards confidence in the outcome in terms of outperformance, not to mention that Singer may once again prove conservative (which is not a bad thing!)

[wan] 14/9/2021 09:23

Singer have upgraded and has published a new research note on EKF -

EKF has delivered another strong set of results, with the step change in the scale of the business firmly consolidated. H1 revenues increased 46.5% driven by an ongoing recovery in the core business and strong demand from a number of public and private sector customers for sample collection devices. The outlook remains positive and progress is being made against the new strategy set out earlier in the year. We upgrade our FY21 revenue forecasts by 7% and EBITDA by 13% noting this still implies an H1 weighting to results, which may again prove to be overly conservative. With growth opportunities on a number of fronts, we continue to see a strong investment case for EKF.

[tongosti] 14/9/2021 08:46

Now this is the chance of the stock price to react. It's now or never time. Still in with my half risk position bu happy to upgrade to a full one IF this acts differently this time.
