Interesting - I hadn't seen that. Re-brokers forecasts, always nice to see upgrades, but in general they've been all over the place in the last few months : never been a time when 'DYOR' was more useful !!!

The incoming CEO has just spent nearly £400k on FLTR shares, that is some statement if you ask me! It's been marked down on low volume today!

[dick grasso] 01/3/2011 15:36

Volume now picking up and would, I hope add to the chance of a breakout to a new base around 330-350.

[dick grasso] 01/3/2011 10:43

... well almost!

[dick grasso] 01/3/2011 10:40

That to me is a break out! little thin on the volume currently so hopeful of a bit of buying later on today!

Broker upgrade-BUY

[quickmind] 20/10/2010 21:30

...

A third quarter trading update that was merely in line with expectations was a cue for a round of profit taking in Filtrona, the international supplier of speciality plastic and fibre products.

Panmure Gordon thinks that with the shares closing last night at a 52-week high of 259p the stock is no longer worth buying, though that view was expressed before the market knocked more than 5% off the share price in the morning session.

Panmure Gordon switches its stance from "buy" to "hold" but maintains its 274p price target after the company achieved slightly better overall growth in the third quarter than the broker was expecting.

The broker notes, however, that "there are a number of issues within the mix."

These include a cautionary note on growth in the porous technologies division in the fourth quarter as a result of overstocking by its largest customers, and cigarette tax changes in Japan bringing filter orders forwards into the third quarter.

The broker's full year expectations remain unchanged though it has fiddled around with the forecast margins of the group's various divisions.

"We believe Filtrona continues to make significant progress, though as is always the case it may pay not to get too carried away too far in advance," the broker said.

Morning all,
FLTR going for the 250

[yoyoy] 26/8/2010 12:15

"Shares in Filtrona Plc gain as much as 4 percent to 238 pence after the British plastic and fibre products supplier reports first-half results above expectations and forecasts strong growth in the second half. WH Ireland Securities initiates coverage on the stock with a "buy" recommendation and a target price of 290 pence. "Filtrona offers further potential outperformance for investors, this is based on a superior growth profile driven by largely stable defensive markets coupled with high growth, high margin opportunities," say analysts at the brokerage."

[shauney2] 26/8/2010 08:33

Very good results.
Should give a nice kick in the rear of PRV also.

[cockneyrebel] 26/8/2010 08:28

Expecting these to break out over the next few days once broker upgrades are out imo.

[cockneyrebel] 26/8/2010 07:52

Well better than half the years forecasts in H1 - gonna do better than next years forecasts this year imo.

Cracking buy imo.

CR

[yoyoy] 26/8/2010 07:26

forecast eps for 2010 is/was 19.1p. achived in first half 11.3p.

So my quick reading is ahead of forecasts.

Interim divi up more (11%) than forecast for the year (5%)

[yoyoy] 25/8/2010 18:23

sod - I bought on that. :-)

[cockneyrebel] 25/8/2010 12:33

A typo in that post above - 22p eps and a 10.2p divi forecast by RBS for next year not 22p divi - sorry.

CR

[cockneyrebel] 25/8/2010 10:17

How are these so cheap after saying they are materially ahead and with results tomorrow? This is a FTSE250 co.

CR

[cockneyrebel] 18/8/2010 10:00

"As a result of cumulative trading from 1 January 2010 to 5 June 2010, it is now
anticipated that the Company's performance for the half year ending 30 June 2010
will be materially ahead of the Board's previous expectations.

An outlook statement for the full year will be issued on 26 August 2010, with
the results for the half year ending 30 June 2010."

RBS forecasting 22p eps and a 22p divi for the year ahead - ruddy cheap for a FTSE 250 stock even if they aren't materially ahead imo.

Results next week.
