Filtronic Share Discussion Threads

MRF just search filtronic on Ebay. I think they must have sold some because the price has gone up a tad this morning

what I can not understand is - why no revenue growth in the last several years for such a high tech established Co in a high growth markets , being development supplier ...

it is just in a range of cca 17 mil - as they would be producing eggs

Filtronics components are sold on Ebay

Impressive presentation of the Annual Report yesterday, indicative of a company on the up. The opening of a new engineering design centre in Manchester next year is very positive news. The share price may fluctuate in the short term but I will continue to hold.

“Just filter him/her”

Done!!

[beeks of arabia] 04/8/2022 16:53

Why do people still converse with this loon? Theres usually one on every thread.Just filter him/her, an obvious bellend.

The only advice I gave was to sell at 17p. Which is exactly what bazworth did. Bazworth said that he did so because he couldn't see any reason for the rise. My reason for selling was because I couldn't see how it was worth that much. Bazworth then said that he bought back as a gamble. Unfortunately the gamble hasn't paid off because the shares are now at 14p.

It's a fair question, he is giving investment advice here and therefore you have to check he is not just an ex employee with a grievance.

"So you haven’t met management ?"

Perhaps Estienne has and it may not have been a pleasant experience......., hence the absolute negativity!!

[slicethepie] 04/8/2022 11:21

So you haven't met management ?

[estienne] 04/8/2022 09:10

Final results, Chairman's statement

[slicethepie] 03/8/2022 17:34

Did you get this from meeting management or is it an educated guess?

[bazworth] 03/8/2022 14:34

Clearly Estienne you know it all, thanks for the warning!!

[estienne] 03/8/2022 14:25

The space work is directed at LEO where Leon Musk has already launched a fleet of satellites. Any orders they pick up will be low volume and not increase revenue very much. If this is their best hope for the future it doesn't bode well.

[bazworth] 03/8/2022 10:21

Estienne,

I have a good chunk that I've accumulated over the last 2-3 years at a very low average price per share. I was being sensible by selling half, but the gambler in me won & that's why I bought back and profited by doing so.

However, having read all of the reports published yesterday I'm extremely happy I did so. I share the same thoughts as mesquida in that the space work could be brilliant for FTC. Also, FTC could do very well on all of their other business 'fronts' too.

I note you still haven't answered the question as to whether you hold or not!!

Cheers

Thankyou wisecat, nice to see you back posting too.

[soilderboy] 03/8/2022 10:13

Just bought in here 69k shares. Not showing. Think there's quite a lot of delayed buys.

[estienne] 03/8/2022 10:13

Bazworth I was just interested to know what your reasons were for selling and then buying back. You said that you sold because you couldn't see any reason for the rise but then you bought your shares back a couple of days later for almost the same price. Did you do that because you couldn't see any reason for the fall?

[wisecat2] 03/8/2022 10:10

Welcome back mesquida Yes it seems there is a lot of excitement about defence and satellites

[mesquida] 03/8/2022 09:31

Watching this with great interest, am thinking that the margins on space work could be 30% or more. OK, short term the numbers perhaps don't make it cheap, but it really is all about the future story here , and that could be very exciting and will probably get factored into the share price long before Estienne wakes up to the potential !
Well done, the new man here, he has done well to change the perception of the company in less than 2 years.

[wisecat2] 02/8/2022 21:31

Baz you are wasting time talking to that troll. But I agree with you and we could be in for an exciting few months

[bazworth] 02/8/2022 21:14

Also, having read the company report as well as the two brokers notes today from both Edison & Finncap, I believe FTC could do very well indeed and I’m content to be fully invested once again. Patience may well be the name of the game! I disagree with you about the companies prospects but it’s sometimes good to disagree.

Once again do you hold and, if so, why? The reason I ask is because of your continuing apparent negativity.

Cheers

[bazworth] 02/8/2022 20:59

So do you actually own any FTC?

[estienne] 02/8/2022 19:51

Ah yes I seem to remember you sold half your shares on 21st July stating that you could see no obvious reason for the rise. I agreed with you it wasn't down to the company's prospects. They were up at about 17p and if you waited a few more days to buy back you would have made a small profit
