Posted at 09/6/2006 13:44 by jtcod Done it GT.Well spotted. THOSE INVESTORS LOOKING FOR 'HET', Please follow new Choices UK link CHUK: |
Posted at 07/5/2006 12:08 by bletherer Snippet in the Sunday Times today. Sounds "remarkably well-informed", as they say, and several interesting titbits of information. Mixed news but the TV pullout highlighted here was already predicted on the other bb some weeks back. I like the sound of "could reveal an upturn in trading"..... "Video firm pulls out of TV shopping ONE of Britain's biggest video-rental chains will admit this week that a diversification into home-shopping television channels has not worked. Home Entertainment Corporation (HEC), the AIM-listed group behind Choices UK, Britain's second-biggest video-rental chain, is expected to announce the closure of its TV-shopping operations with a trading update this week. The group would close its own channel and cease working for third parties such as Playboy TV. With the update to investors, which could reveal an upturn in trading, HEC will also announce the acquisition of the assets and stock of Andromeda Entertainment, a computer-games distributor that had collapsed into receivership. It hopes the deal will add tens of millions of pounds of turnover. Managing director Anthony Skitt is also likely to announce a proposal to change the company's name to Choices UK." |
Posted at 26/4/2006 16:45 by bletherer JTC, I see you're also struggling with the mysteries of where Gyllenhammar is getting his shares from - unless I've missed an RNS along the way that announcement yesterday is the first time any of the major shareholders have acknowledged a reduction in their holding. The only conclusion I have been able to reach is that someone somewhere has not been disclosing some selling. Or HET put up mickey mouse figures about Major Shareholders on their website. Otherwise we would be down to fewer than 5% of shares not held by major investors at this point. |
Posted at 24/4/2006 14:29 by jtcod RecWhen the P/E is this low, long term growth is less of an issue imo. Ben Graham always worked on the principal that a zero growth stock is worth a P/E of 8.5. I think that is a very good rule. The safety is in the purchase price against intrensic value. I do think we will get meaningful growth though from the integration of Andromeda. Andromeda had a T/O of £70m and was profitable. It just had a bank that killed it's short term cash flow by calling in the £4m overdraft. As a 'value' investor, I don't need growth but if it's there, well that's just icing on the cake. As ever all IMHO JT |
Posted at 21/2/2006 19:43 by goonertone MichaelLIke you I haven't really got anything to add over and above what I have said previously just keeping the board ticking over. Though saying that when I get a minute I will post my valuation which I don't think I got round to posting. As for having TA and skills in the same sentence I think is a first. More of a value investor but the more normal TA stuff like trend chanells, flags, filling gaps, breakups and downs I get as its all about Physchology but as for the rest well candlesticks are for romantic evenings (or Cluedo depending on your mood),waves are for surfing and as for golden crosses it sounds like something out of a dodgy porno.

Posted at 10/2/2006 16:22 by nick from times on lineInvestors check out video chain as Swede crops up on register By Nick Hasell Smaller capitalisation shares BUYERS returned to Home Entertainment, the owner of Britain's second-largest video store chain, as a respected Swedish value investor emerged with a debut 6.1 per cent stake. Shares in Home, which trades as Choices, have fallen 80 per cent from their peak four years ago following a collapse in profitability. An investor revolt, backed by 6 per cent-holder SVG Capital, the former Schroder Ventures, has gathered pace during the past few months, culminating in the move last month of founder Iain Muspratt, who still speaks for 27 per cent, to a non-executive role from April. With the rebels still said to be pushing for Home to go private, followers speculated that Peter Gyllenhammar, the smaller companies investor who cropped up on the register yesterday, may aid their cause. The shares rose 3p to 54½p, with the FTSE 250 off 2.8 at 9,240.7. |
Posted at 08/2/2006 13:33 by she-ra Scotland on Sunday:Like many activist investors, Gyllenhammar often makes money by buying companies when the shares are cheap and then forcing changes which raise the share price. But he has occasionally had his fingers burned - two companies in which he invested, Carbo and Gaskell, collapsed last year. |
Posted at 08/2/2006 13:33 by bletherer I don't deny they're in a tough market, but there's also the question of whether the shares have been oversold. Once they get to the point (as here) where breaking it up and selling it off should in theory yield a profit to shareholders they become of interest to value investors looking to see better use made of the assets. |
Posted at 08/2/2006 12:59 by she-ra He has invested in such basket cases as Tandem and Densitron. I dont follow investors like these. |
Posted at 08/2/2006 12:41 by bletherer she-ra, too early to tell. He has on occasions built up large stakes in companies from what I can see. At any rate I cannot see how this can be anything but good news for beleaguered investors. Even if there is no takeover it will put more pressure on the management and he is quite likely to increase his stake at some point. |
