GB Group - acquisition

[lufc5] 04/7/2013 11:16

.....not too many trades today though.

[wolansm] 04/7/2013 11:12

interestingly, the last couple days volume has increased so shares changing hands.

[stig2] 03/7/2013 23:42

Looks good to me too but I think we will have to be patient for the share price to reflect. Still I'm happy to wait as I see GBG as safe as anything similar with a very good chance of coming very good in due course. There again I could always cash in look and forward to a 3% max return when I bank it:-( so I'm going to stay where I am and wait for the boat to come in.

[hotfinance14] 02/7/2013 09:08

Looks like a good acquisition today.

[wolansm] 13/6/2013 09:07

this looks topped for me, unless they have some cracking news to come, thought last rns was a bit wishy washy as an aspiration didnt really do much for me... aimo of course......... prob sell a few now

In my view - yes - but question is when. Growth left here but must be on the radar of at least two buyers. That's why I retain some after selling most in the 90's. Was in at 18-20p so I'm happy to hold for divi now and until t/o. All IMHO and dyor.

[wolansm] 10/6/2013 09:29

thats the only reason I am here now.

[hotfinance14] 09/6/2013 11:47

Do we expect a bid to come in for GBG ?

[phoenix1234] 03/6/2013 17:59

Finals - a risky buy http://www.shareprophets.com/analysis/541/gb-group-full-year-results-identifiable-value-on-offer

[wolansm] 03/6/2013 09:19

WJ thats what I think as well, but think long termers need to see some pay back, so reckon will sell a few off now, thats not to say that in the long term the company are wrong.......... down 1.5 pence

[wjccghcc] 03/6/2013 09:10

They probably want to keep the cashpile for further acquisitions.

[hotfinance14] 03/6/2013 08:55

I agree wolansm.

[wolansm] 03/6/2013 08:43

great results but thought divi should be more.... aimo

[broadwood] 03/6/2013 07:28

Should take us nicely higher today - against a down market.


Data security specialist GB Group said strong revenue growth and margin improvements resulted in profits ahead of market expectations for the full-year.

The group saw 24% revenue growth to £39.4 million (2012: £31.8 million), with underlying organic revenue growth of 7% (2012: 11%).

There was a 51% increase in adjusted operating profits to £5.5 million (2012: £3.7 million).

GB enjoyed a 40% increase in profit before tax to £3.5 million (2012: £2.5 million).

There was a 28% increase in adjusted basic earnings per share to 5.0p (2012: 3.9p).

Strong balance sheet and good cash generation, resulted in cash balances of £6.3 million (2012: £4.8 million) after dividend payment (£1.5 million) and cost of investing activities (£3.0 million).

There was a 9% increase to the proposed dividend for 2013 to 1.5 pence (2012: 1.375 pence).

GB enhanced its identity intelligence capabilities through strategic acquisition of TMG.tv Limited and increased investment in Loqate, Inc.

Five new countries added to the Group's international EIDV service, ID3global, including China and Argentina, increasing the number of countries covered to 20 (2012: 15) and the number of people GBGroup is able to verify globally from 0.7 billion to 2 billion.

Commenting, Richard Law, CEO, said: "Increasingly, commerce is being influenced by the online world and an ever more mobile population. Organisations now trade and interact with many more customers, over longer distances and in situations that are rarely face-to-face presenting new challenges for verifying and maintaining contact with customers. In the year ahead, we will continue to focus on making business easier and safer for our clients by investing in our international verification network (ID3global) and in widening our capabilities in other areas to strengthen our position in this significant global market.

"I am very pleased with the progress achieved by GBGroup over the last year. Our professional and talented team has performed excellently and continues to grow in skill and strength. This, taken together with the positive growth prospects for our markets, means we remain confident for the year ahead."
