Looks like a decent update to my eye.The shift to regular premium continues apace.

Not really looked at this one in a while - presume the "court" issues are still outstanding?

[this_is_me] 29/1/2013 07:48

The traction in regular premium, very profitable long term, business is encouraging for the long term.

"Outlook

We are optimistic that the Group's focus on the growth markets of the Far East and Latin America and our continuing investment in distribution infrastructure, systems and OnLine platform, will position us for growth.

There is a momentum behind the business and we believe that Hansard's prospects remain strong. "

thanks martincc. I have invested heavily here and pleased to see some support at current levels after institutions were lining up to sell up 90p.

I don't think that there was proper appreciation of the change from selling one off investment products to an increast in regular premium investments. Maybe this is becoming more widely understood.

After a 31% rise from the low, I was tempted to edge a few out at 110.5p. A few bigger trades so I wonder if we will get news of an institution buying. As I said yesterday, they were giving them away sub 90p but happily buying my stock above 110p. All very silly. It will be interesting to see if they can get back to 120p again.

[deepvalueinvestor] 09/1/2013 19:36

The price action is great and I am pleasantly surprised. It's funny, the institutions were lining up to sell below 92p but now don't seem to want to do business.

Going up! Great long term prospects

[deepvalueinvestor] 04/1/2013 08:01

New blood is no bad thing. Looks neutral.

Bought these at 99p as a punt but am thinking of going long if the 8.8% dividend holds.

[this_is_me] 03/1/2013 08:39

120p the next target.

[this_is_me] 02/1/2013 14:54

Above £1 now, on the bounce. ADVFN charts are often wrong for HSD for some reason; eg. they are showing a dip instead of a rise today.

[deepvalueinvestor] 30/11/2012 20:06

Apparently now on the Morgan Stanley Small Cap Index, so some related buying today. Intraday up to 98p but the important thing is forming a base above 92p where there were previously sellers.

Aleman,Thanks.

From final results:

Over the last two years the Company has paid dividends that have been GBP16m in excess of cash generated by the business. The Board believes that now is an appropriate time to adjust the dividend to a level commensurate with the surplus cash generated by the business.

Dividend payments for the year ended 30 June 2013 therefore are expected to total 8.0p per share and it is the Board's intention to pursue a progressive policy thereafter.

You could try looking at CSN,GLIF, PEW,HGG, SDV, PHNX and PNX for yield. I don't hold them all or recommend any in particular so you'll have to do your own research.

[garycook] 23/11/2012 03:56

Aleman,Are HSD cutting the Divi 45%,also now holding CWC,CHG,EMG,FGP,GSK,IAP,UKCM VOD for Divi income,do you have any other high yielding Divi quality companies yielding 6% plus besides BA.RSA,RSL.Thanks in advance

[deepvalueinvestor] 22/11/2012 16:31

there were sellers at 91p/92p but we are seeing some larger trades at 91p today. It will be interesting to see if they can break above this level on higher volumes.

[aleman] 22/11/2012 13:56

Guidance on next year's dividend suggests a yield of 8.7% at 8p/91.5p.

[pvb] 22/11/2012 13:45

Yes... He seems to be going on last year's dividend. Oops!

[cwa1] 22/11/2012 10:49

[garycook] 22/11/2012 10:46
