Is that 11000 yours trt?

[trt] 28/3/2017 09:47

I think I'll take advantage of the dip and top up my holding. In time to collect the dividend too !

[trt] 27/3/2017 10:15

Tightly held these shares even the smallest of buys pushes the price up.

[trt] 27/3/2017 07:52

Yes but theses companies are profit making before the acquisition so they hit the ground running so to speak.

[skasher094] 26/3/2017 07:30

All got to be bedded in first takes time and money

[trt] 24/3/2017 09:45

These acquisitions are strongly earnings enhancing and will result in increased profits and dividends going forward. The share price level now certainly does not reflect potential future profits, that's why we have and are seeing buyers flocking in.

[skasher094] 23/3/2017 23:30

Think price will drop back over next couple weeks until new shares listed and absorbedNice profit for city boys and management who get shares at 67pIf price stays aboveThey will take their profit and push price back short term unless drops to listing price before 8th April but long term this will rise over £1

Like the Metro Plumb franchise being developed by Metro Rod very much. Nice growth there. Was a bit worried, first off this morning, that Metro Rod was an established business and I couldn't really see the growth in it. But then I saw Metro Plumb. Will have to look at the accounts but I think I'm sticking around. Franchise Brands management is very good after all.

Happy to have bought in at 71p and then all this blew up. (Love Barking Mad as a concept which is what brought me in in the first place.) Was hoping for a string of smaller franchises, smaller than this new one anyway, but hey ho. Nice early profit.

[trt] 23/3/2017 08:21

It make no odds really, as for me this is a buy and long term hold

[skasher094] 23/3/2017 08:13

Trt surely you could have topped up in the book build at 67 p?

[trt] 23/3/2017 08:10

Barking Mad I am talking about. Could well end up in the blue by the close of play today.

[trt] 23/3/2017 08:09

This acquisition is hugely earning enhancing I have topped up this morning.

[someuwin] 23/3/2017 07:54

Interesting!

[skasher094] 23/3/2017 07:48

This appears to be a way for enserve Ltd to get a listing by reversing into franchise brands!

[skasher094] 22/3/2017 17:07

Timeing is everything

[trt] 22/3/2017 14:38

Yes as mentioned before I thought something was about to happen

[someuwin] 22/3/2017 13:26

Must be a big one.
