Does anyone know anything about the competition?

[macarre] 20/2/2015 19:23

I'm watching. Will wait for when the price feels right.

[jeanesy2] 19/2/2015 17:26

Looks like it could be heading back to placement price especially as AVAP published results which were not liked by the market today.

Cantor's are pushing GMAA today with a 400p target:

Hopefully not just the jet market picking up, but also the share price

[rivaldo] 09/2/2015 08:54

The private jet market is picking up - the more the merrier as this hugely benefits service companies like GMAA:



Extract:

"But last year marked a turning point for the industry. According to Teal Group, the American Aerospace consultant, the market for deliveries rose 3 percent last year to US$23 billion, and is expected to grow a healthy 10 percent this year. Over the next ten years the global market is expected to soar to US$250 billion, according to Jose Eduardo Costas, vice-president, Market Intelligence, Embraer Executive Jets, which recently delivered a US$9.5 million, seven-seater Phenom 300 to Indian billionaire Joy Alukkas, owner of Joyalukkas Group."

And Farnborough is having a record year:

"In The UK, TAG Farnborough Airport will have a strong year after the recent merger between Hangar 8 and GAMA Aviation. Farnborough is one of Europe’s most efficient and contemporary business aviation airports, and with the UK market performing more strongly than others in Europe, we predict it will break its annual records and hit close to 25,000 private jet flights in 2015."

Rivaldo - Lol..nobody can say you don't fly the flag for GMAA, but you make a good point about volume.

[rivaldo] 05/2/2015 09:35

Then do some topping up :o))

A 6% fall on a mere £18k of trades is just reflective of MM caution in these markets. It can just as easily rise the same amount on a couple of buys.

[gorilla36] 05/2/2015 08:57

………;……̷0;Let me guess back to 280! It's a bit dispiriting when three days of gains are blown away in fifteen minutes.

[rivaldo] 05/2/2015 07:46

Looks like GMAA has just added Glasgow Airport, "the UK’s busiest General Aviation airport", to its list of facilities:



Someuwin, I completely agree about the huge potential of the Hutchison Whampoa JV.

[macarre] 04/2/2015 21:45

Banked small profit today. Not what I would call a very successful trade, but hey every little counts. Plan to be back soon.

[someuwin] 04/2/2015 15:32

I don't think the market is giving enough credit for how much extra growth this new China JV will bring in.

Over time returns here should be exceptional imo.

Consequently I've been buying more.

"This venture allows us to significantly build on our existing investment and infrastructure in the region and provides us with an excellent platform for revenue growth. We see Asia as a large business aviation market and one with huge potential for us. We now have the opportunity to not only serve the PRC, Hong Kong and the wider Asian market, but also link up to our strong regional businesses in Africa, the Middle East and Europe, all of which are major asset destinations for Chinese businesses and individuals."

Good to see keen share buying even before the market open today at 327p.

[rivaldo] 02/2/2015 12:01

Cantor reiterate their Buy and 400p valuation today:

[macarre] 02/2/2015 11:13

Market seems to agree it is a good idea.

[someuwin] 02/2/2015 09:36

Great news.

[gargleblaster] 02/2/2015 08:46

I imagine that HW will ramp this up massively over time - involvement with 2 aircraft for them is nothing. Their Asian contacts could lead to a considerable expansion if they are happy with the business model imho.

[goliard] 02/2/2015 08:18

I think it's a great idea. Reading the announcement you can tell that it's a sensible JV and they are starting small so there is very little risk. Highlights the potential size of the market but they don't get carried away.

[igoe104] 02/2/2015 08:16

Sure is, massive market with very little competition.

China is widely regarded as one of the fastest growing markets for business jet services yet today there are only forty-five operators operating within Greater China.

[rivaldo] 02/2/2015 07:55

Good idea? It's a fantastic idea and leg up as a way into China and the Far East. As I said just above :o))

[macarre] 02/2/2015 07:22

JV with Hutchison Whampoa. Good idea?

[rivaldo] 02/2/2015 07:21

Terrific news - a JV with the mighty Hutchison Whampoa has to be the perfect way to expand operations in China and the rest of Asia:



"Marwan Khalek CEO of Gama Aviation Plc commented:

"This venture allows us to significantly build on our existing investment and infrastructure in the region and provides us with an excellent platform for revenue growth. We see Asia as a large business aviation market and one with huge potential for us. We now have the opportunity to not only serve the PRC, Hong Kong and the wider Asian market, but also link up to our strong regional businesses in Africa, the Middle East and Europe, all of which are major asset destinations for Chinese businesses and individuals.

This joint venture evidences not only our commitment to the Asian market, but also our appeal to likeminded multinational conglomerates seeking to enter the private aviation services sector with scale operators." "

Nice mention here - Cantor have a 400p target price:



"GAMA AVIATION

Cantor Fitzgerald reiterated its “buy” rating following Hangar8’s acquisition of, and subsequent name change to, Gama Aviation. The broker predicted that profits could double over the next three years with more aircraft under management and increased cross-selling of services."
