The nail has been removed for the moment again but I'd still like to know why it was in there in the first place. Should know better by now as a small fry we are not to wonder why but watch the graph and hope it fly's. Saying that I do have faith in the management as they seem to be making good use of their acquisitions and not giving us a lot of bull predictions even if it does take them a while to tell us what's afoot.

Reckon the Director purchase will provide some assistance to the share price - possibly more than the half year report.

The finance and operations director of GB Group has acquired 24,000 shares in the identity intelligence solutions firm following the release of an upbeat half-year report.
Dave Wilson bought the stock at 145p apiece and took his stake in the group to 365,035 shares.

The company reported a 28% rise in revenue to £23.2m, helping lift pre-tax profit from £1.33m to £1.39m year-on-year.

Adjusted basic earnings per share came in at 3.1p, up from 2.3p a year earlier.

Chief executive officer Richard Law said: "We have made strong progress against our strategy throughout the first half of the year and expect this positive momentum to continue through to the year end and beyond.

"With the added capabilities, markets and clients bought to the group by the acquisitions of DecTech and Transactis, we are confident of our continued growth and for the prospects of the Group which we feel are very positive."

The modest divi and lack of interim divi announcement doesn't help,looking from here expect another purchase of another business.......£3 one day

[hotfinance14] 24/11/2014 08:59

But hasn't. Usually this is re-rated a week or so after the results.

[wolansm] 24/11/2014 07:45

Should fly

[broadwood] 20/11/2014 16:56

Interims Monday.

[stig2] 09/11/2014 21:12

:-) Agreed, but I'd love to know why the nail has been put in. No doubt it will all become clear in time.

[stig2] 08/11/2014 20:54

Wonder which way this will go when the nail has been taken out of its foot?;-)

[hotfinance14] 26/10/2014 15:56

I can see the turnover being over £50m this year.

Identity intelligence specialist GB Group achieved a strong set of first half results, the company revealed in a trading update ahead of the release of its interim figures.
Adjusted operating profit rose at least 40% to £3.7m, the group said, attributing the gains to both its organic activities and acquired businesses.

Chief executive Richard Law said: "The performance in the first half of the year has been very pleasing across the entire group.

"We have maintained our strategy of investing to extend our identity intelligence capabilities together with leveraging the opportunities provided by our increasing global reach."

Its DecTech business, which was acquired in April 2014, has been integrated well and is making a "strong contribution" towards group performance, GB added.

It also said the proposed acquisition of Transactis, announced earlier this month, further enhances its prospects.

Lastly, the firm expects to continue to deliver a strong performance throughout the second half of the year

Indeed looking good here, should put a ceiling under the current price, also perhaps time the company looked at an interim, divi however this looks unlikely as they rightly prefer investment and expansion of the business. Sold a few recently as wanted to move more into an oil exploration opportunity.

[hotfinance14] 20/10/2014 09:14

Excellent trading update.

[melody9999] 20/10/2014 08:19

Added this morning. Good trading update with anticipated operating profit up 40% at £3.7M follows a purchase that is expected to be earnings positive in first full year with gross profits (spookily also) at £3.7M in last year.

[hotfinance14] 14/10/2014 10:18

More growth by GBG...Excellent.
