Not impressed here with pre results activity/interest...

I hope I haven't called tomorrow wrong ?????

Was almost tempted to sell today, but didn't.

Worrying....

Couple of tubs of lard selling a Vibrapower on the channel right now :-)

[bigbigdave] 14/9/2010 16:24

Quiet thread, guess things will be different tomorrow!

[nurdin] 14/9/2010 11:07

I succumbed....but that wasnt me :o)

[cockneyrebel] 14/9/2010 10:37

Large trades - someone clearing the seller out ahead of the results tomorrow?

Looks like the wife's SIPP has seen a few more of these added today.

[santangello] 14/9/2010 00:05

Wed will be fine CR.........

[cockneyrebel] 13/9/2010 17:36

Nice 15k buy today but never moved the price.

Still - got to buy volume when you can - will there be any stock about after the results?

We'll know on Weds :-)

CR

[cockneyrebel] 10/9/2010 14:11

Buyers moving in - on the up at last :-)

CR

[cockneyrebel] 08/9/2010 16:08

L2 firming up as buys start coming in - results Weds :-)

CR

[bigbigdave] 06/9/2010 14:36

Bouncing right on chart trend, bring on the results.

[choppa] 03/9/2010 11:59

Yep, agreed CR can see these higher long term but lack of patience seems to always shake a few people out.

[cockneyrebel] 03/9/2010 11:14

yep, will SCSW tip them again next weekend ahead of the results too?

CR

[bigbigdave] 03/9/2010 07:06

15th it is then.

[bigbigdave] 03/9/2010 06:42

Nice buy point if you ask me, right on the bottom of the channel. Results in a few weeks should wake folk up.

[cockneyrebel] 02/9/2010 18:00

yeah, hardly big sellers are they - and the 100K went to someone, mm's don't take 100K.

After the recent trading statement these have to be going gangbusters imo.

CR

[choppa] 02/9/2010 17:56

What do we think CR? A few PI's losing their nerve ahead of results? Seems a fall on limited volume.

[cockneyrebel] 20/8/2010 10:39

20K buy.

Results brought forward to Sep 13th too.

News on the sale of the business?

Ideal Shopping Direct Plc
("Ideal Shopping Direct" or the "Company")

Trading Update
For the 21 weeks ended 30 May 2010

Further to the trading update provided on 23 March 2010 at the preliminary
results announcement, Ideal Shopping Direct today announces strong trading for
the 21 weeks ending 30 May 2010.

2010 continues to be extremely encouraging with total sales, including Lead The
Good Life Ltd (LTGL) which was acquired on 18 January 2010, up 17.9% over the
same period of 2009. Excluding LTGL sales, Group sales have increased by 10.5%
over the same period in 2009. We expect to report a substantial profit in the
first half of 2010, which is a major improvement on the GBP0.9 million trading
loss incurred during the first half of 2009.

The Board feels comfortable that they can reintroduce a sustainable dividend
policy when the interim results are announced in September.
Chief executive Mike Hancox commented,

"We are pleased that we continue to grow our business despite a challenging
retail environment. Given the operational gearing of the Company, we expect
profit in the first half year to be substantially better than in 2009. Whilst we
remain cautious over consumer spending patterns in the second half, we are
confident that Company strategy will continue to deliver a robust performance
through the second half year".

Buyers today and on the crest of a breakout here - can't see how these won't really get going soon - results approaching too and potentially news on the sale of the co at any time they choose.

CR

[choppa] 02/8/2010 11:38

200p mention in IC so that will do me for starters :-)

[cockneyrebel] 01/8/2010 17:30

Looks more than a punt to me daisy, without a bid - that's why I'm holding.

A 'substantial' profit in H1 says they are well ahead imo, rarely made any profit in H1 in the past.

350% earnings growth forecast this year, 50% forecast compound over each of the next two years.

PE 12 this year falling to 10 for the year ahead and those esimates look way conservative imo.

Maiden divi being pain this half too - tells you a bit about their confidence too imo.

Anyway - all that and they have said they are looking to sell the co and are having a strategic review for even more upside :-)

Results in September - I bet these are bought up well ahead of then imo.
