jez,

lol...fat fingers. I have edited my post.

I'm sure that the housing market is near the top, but I still think there is good value here, given their land bank.

tiltonboy, I suspect you meant that you picked up 125k at 11.25p? I think the fall has something to do with the Trading Statement issued, today, by Bovis Homes. The somewhat modest improvement was not well received by the market. Bovis Homes share price is down 8% today.

Nobody seems to know anything. I picked up a 125k at 11.25p.

[folderboy] 19/11/2015 12:11

Anyone able to explain the fall? It cannot just be my adding a few.

[martinthebrave] 29/10/2015 13:13

Strange activity today. Twice as many Buys as Sells and the price marked down 5%?

[folderboy] 29/10/2015 11:26

Apologies - I added as I anticipated a rise!

Cameron's plans to promote housing should be good for this company in the long term. Most acute housing shortage is though in south east where Harworth does not own any land.

[folderboy] 07/10/2015 12:16

Seems stuck.

Harworth acquires industrial estate

Harworth Group plc ("Harworth Group" or "Harworth"), the UK property regeneration company, announces the acquisition of Sinfin Lane Industrial Park in Derby for GBP6.95 million, with a net initial yield of 9.0%.

Sinfin Lane Industrial Park consists of 471,508 sq ft of industrial space with open storage and development land with a historical consent for residential use adjacent to Rolls Royce's worldwide headquarters.

It is Harworth's third acquisition over the past nine months, following the purchases of the 162-acre former Skelton Grange power station in Leeds and the 320-acre former aluminium smelter in Lynemouth, Northumberland.

Owen Michaelson, Chief Executive of Harworth Group, said: "This well-located investment continues the process of improving the recurring income base of our business and will create a highly-liquid, income-producing asset with a number of active asset management opportunities."

agree certainly a lot of land that will be attractive to big builders.market cap 3 times inland.

[meijiman] 07/9/2015 09:26

I would like to see a broker note giving some forecast numbers on eps and NAV. This might be a win/win on both counts. This landbank can only go up in value I think.

[manrobert] 07/9/2015 08:56

bt a few more,this could turn out to be a very undervalued share at this price,imo

[manrobert] 04/9/2015 09:47

looks like other investors like what they read in c article,

[manrobert] 03/9/2015 16:51

yes have seen the rticle on line although they only rate it as a hold

[kombimatec] 03/9/2015 16:43

They might get a positive comment in IC magazine tomorrow.

[manrobert] 03/9/2015 15:54

taken a small stake here as it looks like there could be a lot of hidden valuein the balance sheet.will try and increase my holding over time,

[meijiman] 28/8/2015 08:33

Probably be more anchored to NAV. Hugely complex set of results. Not sure you are right to double up as may be one offs in H1.Still I think 20p could be on the cards here.

[kombimatec] 28/8/2015 07:41

Six months earnings 2.7p, 12 months 5.4p? A modest p/e of 10 means a share price of 54p?

[dazzaa] 28/8/2015 07:28

I woudn't mind a few plots at £37k each, seems cheap.

but think of the dividend soon.
