particular reason!!

Mostly goverment contracts!! When the dust settles ALL gov spending will be SLASHED!!

Becoming a bit precipitous and losing when the market is gaining, anybody aware of a particular reason?

[iglet] 07/10/2008 16:02

Getting rather silly with the price now - back to early '06 level :-((

I would imagine Arden may upgrade FY forecasts now. Wonder if 34p is possible?

If growth continues at the current rate then upwards of 40p might be possible for next year.

In a normal market this would be on at least 12 times I'd have thought, suggesting that something approaching 500p isn't unrealistic a year or so out.

Good point - Cash generated from operations £34.3m, up £24.1m (2007: £10.2m)

Well, got the 350p wrong but was out anyway. Back in today, liked the results.

[phillis] 18/8/2008 07:59

1 month later all is progressing well

[phillis] 18/7/2008 10:12

Sold out last autumn but this level looks like an excellent rentry point.
Good geographic spread and like the fact that an exit from Belgium is on the cards.
Useful dividend stream

350p seems to show support and a golden cross.
