breaking out?

[bluebelle] 17/5/2013 17:13

Looking better today.

[bluebelle] 12/5/2013 16:47

Surprised that this has missed out on the sector rally - the metrics look compelling. It looks seriously undervalued.

[stevemarkus] 12/3/2013 10:11

I felt these results were a little lacklustre. In particular the outlook concerned me, with the statement that 2013 had started slowly and so profits would be second half weighted, especially so.

I've sold my holding first thing this morning, as although I still like the company, I expect to be able to buy it back cheaper in due course.

Cheers,
Steve.

Looks very good value at these levels to me.

Market cap less than 10 x forecasted profits.

[wjccghcc] 29/1/2013 11:31

I have a fair amount also. Management very solid.

[redartbmud] 29/1/2013 10:33

I have been a holder for a long time.
When David Grove bowed out I wondered if the business would take a dip, but it has continued to flourish. I believe that they have a good management team and a good business model.

Yes, I'm still here and holding. Results due in March give us a little time before having to back up this price move with some facts, but on the face of it the shares aren't too expensive, looking at the forecasts. And their last statement was really quite positive.

Cheers,
Steve.

Well, I,m glad I bought these....anyone else out there?

Apart from the bloke who keeps saying their doomed!!

Steadfast price action, or beginning to break down?

[hvs] 20/3/2012 15:54

lol !!!!!

Its all free in the U.K.

[phillis] 15/3/2012 11:36

beginning to look expensive
dividends paid in 2011 not covered by free cash flow

[hvs] 15/3/2012 10:46

Stay in there.

Profits growth is about to acclerate.

[lej2] 15/3/2012 10:36

Looks good to me. My only dilemma is, having bought at sub 250 for the yield of over 5% should I now sell as the effective yield is down to 4%. I do like the company but I am aware that you should be continually reappraising long term investments to ensure that they match your targets.

The problem is always in finding alternative investments that suite. The increasing profit from outside of Europe looks like a good reason to stay long.

[foxman14] 15/3/2012 08:31

OK. I make adjusted EPS slightly better than mean estimates. Positive outlook with one area ahead of estimates although usual disclaimer on economic conditions. Holding.

[lej2] 14/3/2012 16:26

Seems like some measure of positive expectation here, let's hope the results match those expectations

[gco1133a] 14/3/2012 11:07

Has been a nice recovery from the lows of last autumn. US business should be on the up with the recent better news on the US economy. Hoping for a decent outlook statement tomorrow.

[lej2] 13/3/2012 22:53

Still in and looking for inline results and positive outlook.

[foxman14] 13/3/2012 22:32

Results this Thursday 15th. Anybody else got an interest here?

[lej2] 15/11/2011 15:19

Back in for the yield in my ISA. Long term view in the hope that USA, Europe and Asia will invest in infrastructure projects, USA and Europe to aid jobless numbers abd Asia because they should.

[m.t.glass] 13/9/2011 10:50

retesting that 235 support level again this morning.
Needs to hang onto that - next (minor) support level 188p. Next serious support level 140p from March 2009 (maybe 155).
