Nice upward trajectory this am

[shanklin] 28/11/2018 07:24

Does anybody know to what extent the effect of cross-selling Impact's "seasonal decor" products across the rest of IGR's operational footprint is reflected in the forecasts please?

I presume this has just been ignored as its basically an unknown... ...but a huge opportunity for IGR to add sales and beat broker forecasts.

The share price has now settled down after this mornings brilliant update but is now slowly trending upwards. Nice and steady as she goes!

Progressive Equity Research quick off the mark again updating its forecasts:-

"Management have indicated that this strong progress will continue into H2 so we increase our EPS forecast from 25.9p to 27p for FY2019E and retain our forecast of 31.5p for FY2020E."

Personally I think these numbers will be easily beaten...liked this bit in todays results:-

"Organic sales (excluding Impact) of $88.9 million were 2.6% behind last year (H1 2018: $91.3 million) due to the timing of shipments of customers' orders, which are later in the peak season this year compared to the previous year with profits broadly consistent at $7.5 million. As customer orders are now due to be fulfilled in the second half, the US business is set to achieve strong year-on-year growth in both sales and profit in the full year...."

.........so a lot more profit to come in H2 especially with the Impact re-organisation savings.

Paul Fineman speaking on the results:-

Superb numbers and increased divi, got to be a Zulu candidate imo :o)

[rivaldo] 27/11/2018 07:33

Brilliant - ahead of expectations!

Lovely jubbly.

[pugugly] 27/11/2018 07:21

"Underlying fully diluted earnings per share(b) up 79% at 19.5p (H1 2018: 10.9p)"
Better than I expected - nice pre Christmas present (imo)
plus "Organic growth and stronger performance from Impact anticipated to deliver earnings ahead of market expectations."

Itching to take off me thinks!

[teddy boy1] 25/11/2018 15:51

To morrow will be an interesting day for I G Design shares

[teddy boy1] 23/11/2018 18:11

Surprise .surprise! A £116.3K BUY after hours.! No one outfit buys in these sorts of quantities unless they are very confident that the company concerned will "produce the goods" Looking very good indeed!

IG Xmas giftwrap etc on sale at an Aldi store I popped in yesterday.

Continuing growth from Aldi and Lidl augurs well for IG UK sales.

I agree teddy boy, I often say this price is being held back to allow institutions to buy in on the cheap. Once they've had their fill then this should fly again. GL

[teddy boy1] 23/11/2018 12:45

Two really chunky BUYS from late P M yesterday and one from earlier this morning now showing on the LSE Trades. Someone likes this company and is buying BIG! I think that we can safely assume that this is why the share price is being held in check despite all the buys this morning.Expecting BIG things from this company!

[teddy boy1] 23/11/2018 11:12

Why with the significant number of BUYS this morning with hardly any sells should the share price be dropping? Very suspicious!

[teddy boy1] 23/11/2018 09:37

I will drink to that,TIME 2 RETIRE!

[time 2 retire] 23/11/2018 08:25

Looks like the buyers are piling in before Tuesdays results. Hopefully we'll get a double digit blue day.

[teddy boy1] 22/11/2018 17:41

Some very nice really chunky buys after close. I would not be surprised if the share price has not been "squeezed " over the last few days to accommodate these! Now expect the share price to rise between now and Tuesday

[time 2 retire] 22/11/2018 12:55

I'm not believing this little drop lately on small volumes but lets let the MMs have their bit of fun before Tuesdays results...

[rivaldo] 14/11/2018 06:46

Nice....



"The Share Centre adds IG Design to ‘buy’ list

The Share Centre has added IG Design (IGR) to its ‘buy’ list as the celebration stationery distributor is set for further growth.

Analyst Ian Forrest added IG Design to his ‘buy’ list as ‘the company looks set for further growth and has increased its production capacity with a new printing press in the Netherlands’.

‘A strong balance sheet and progressive dividend policy are further attractions for investors,’ he said.

‘We recommend the shares as a "buy" for higher risk investors seeking growth due to the company’s good track record of expansion, broad reach across many countries with further potential thanks to its wide range of products and recent US acquisition.’"

I think this is itching to take off again!

[time 2 retire] 08/11/2018 23:44

Yep, we touched £6.22 this AM. I think we're peaking too early with still 2 n half weeks til results! I hope this don't tank again.

[rivaldo] 08/11/2018 23:33

Looks like new closing highs. Lovely :o))

[gswredland] 07/11/2018 16:50

Come on IGR you can break that 600 barrier!
