It's about time that GHH restarted their optics industry consolidation programme.

There's plenty of v good looking $5-10m buys out there that could be immediately earnings enhancing and product portfolio strengthening.

At this share price all of us would (or should) welcome a 5-10% dilution for the right "bolt-ons". Perhaps there's something in the wind!

[seanyboy] 15/9/2010 10:44

maybe this time it's something more than the "routine" trading update?

[geovest] 14/9/2010 15:26

Trading update expected early Oct. Strong trading update recently by Renisaw and others means expectation continue to improve.

I hope so seany, this is one of my best performing shares. I got the feeling there may be some news in the pipeline soon too.

[seanyboy] 08/9/2010 12:50

nice steady move upwards and thru the 3£ barrier. With the market relatively stable GHH should continue to blaze a trail even in the absence of any new (recent)significant statements. Makes me think that we are due positive newsflow. DYOR

The buy recommendation was made on 16/7 when the share price was 273.

[electronica] 29/7/2010 10:47

That "Buy" bulletin from Growth Company certainly had an effect on the share price!

[thearcticfox] 27/7/2010 12:58

Whats going on today then? All buys... some nice size trades as well. I hope there's news on the way :-)

Great news :0)

Brilliant IMS this morning!

I'm now beginning to think that we might hit that 600p target a lot sooner than even I expected. Perhaps by the end of next year!

[seanyboy] 12/7/2010 21:38

Thanks for that Electronica - just went through their recent results and really there seems to be so much potential - another piece of positive newsflow would kick the price on. I guess they also have plans to move out of AIM in the medium term.

GHH is good value right up to 600p before the end of Q1 2013.

600 p is the point at which the new special Director's Options/LTIP package maxes out & the top team get awarded over £12m. Not a bad little earner!

These guys are going to hit this target way before time in my view

[seanyboy] 05/7/2010 20:39

seems to be pushing on nicely despite current market sentiment. Wonder at what price it ceases to be "GOOD VALUE"?

[thearcticfox] 24/6/2010 14:49

Yes, I know the article's a couple of weeks old, but it hasn't been posted yet so here you all go:-

[garth] 08/6/2010 12:20

Good to see you here WJ :0)

[wjccghcc] 08/6/2010 11:34

Agreed garth. Had a few first thing.

[matt123d] 08/6/2010 10:23

260p target back in play now.

[seanyboy] 08/6/2010 07:16

Surely 2£ can be cemented now - who knows what the next target price may be with such strong results.

[garth] 08/6/2010 06:24

Cracking results :0)

[bookbroker98] 25/5/2010 15:15

Hoping that half-year results will provide a boost to this stock, large exposure to US markets via most recent acquisition should provide some impetus, unfairly sold down recently as a result of overall market decline, still a smart co. in a high tech. market.

[matt123d] 19/4/2010 10:43

Looking good here, trading ahead of view and looks like it's starting the next leg up towards that 260p short term target area.

Kavanagh lost Killik clients buckets of cash in 2000, I remembering reading that one couple lost a million and were looking to sue. He was mad crazy on Psion, Kewill, Marconi, Trafficmaster, all went on from being worth pounds to pennies. Incredible times.

[essentialinvestor] 18/4/2010 10:33

Everyone's a genius in a Bull Market, as the old phrase goes.

I remember when Paul Kavanagh, also from Killik, was talked about
in the same way..

Following a 70% plus rise in the markets in a year,
its been very easy to be a great stock picker imo.

Relative performance following a sharp correction in the
Markets, may be interesting to look at imv.
