One small sale (£22k) is not necessarily a bad sign. Perhaps she needed some lunch money. Concerted large scale selling by directors would be another matter.

[nonlottie] 14/3/2007 13:04

Slightly concerning Director share sale. Co. only floated less than a year ago and price is not giving much of a gain.

Not exactly a vote of confidence that the Chairman/Wife is selling when the share price looks to be so undervalued, and they're unlikely to find a yield anything like this anywhere else.

Anyone know any history as to when he got these shares and whether he has any other equity interest through options/ LTIPS etc, or holdings etc of rest of board.

XD today-should be down 3p

[kebab77] 14/3/2007 11:27

Chairman selling?!

[silverfern] 12/3/2007 19:00

If this doesn't watch out it will become a traded AIM share; ie dipping low,rising, then back down etc. To be critical for a change, the company did not exactly excite in its outlook, I think because it wants the return to speak for itself which in a calm market it clearly would. But when the market has jitters nothing is ever good enough. We know who owns the bulk of the shares and they are certainly not selling; this will remain a cash cow for some time but I hope in the next six months they make an acquisition which really excites and in broadening their product range to include eg families/kids (as they have mentioned in their results!) gets us out of the traded range and into the growth company range. I expect 80p before 95p (I'll be wrong no doubt) and as ever IMHO and DYOR

[kebab77] 12/3/2007 16:37

It is 17.5%

What is going ooooon?!

[silverfern] 12/3/2007 15:16

well the next dividend should be 5p. So should it fall further and you buy at say 88p then the time/money means you'd secure 8p in six months and one week - what's that annualised?

[nurdin] 12/3/2007 14:28

Absolute madnesss to sell here...mouth andd gifthorse come to mind!I will be buying more after I have collected my 3p dividend :o)

[silverfern] 12/3/2007 14:24

well I guess some people want the cash now before it goes XD (Which is end of this week). It's a rough market and might stay so. There should also be some press this week (IC, SHares etc)

[kebab77] 12/3/2007 14:03

No-one is listening to you Silverfern (despite you being quite right)!

Mysterious selling going on despite the good news, etc..

[wanglong1981] 12/3/2007 00:42

Daniel Stewart says buy CareCapital (40p target) and Interactive World (LSE: ITW.L - news) (124p target).

[kalmar] 10/3/2007 00:19

just logged to check reaction to results...on a cruise with the missus on the sunny mexican rivera....nice to see some quality names joining the thread too....now back to the Tequila ;-) hic..

[silverfern] 09/3/2007 12:49

If the share price was 200p I agree 8.4p or thereabouts would not be a 10% return - it would only be 4.2%, what a bummer. As share prices move around a bit they have to anchor it to something.

[diogenesj] 09/3/2007 09:38

And 8.40p (9.60%) dividend forecast for 2007-2008, more or less confirmed by the chairman in his remark in yesterday's results:

"Particularly pleasing is the Company's ability to pay a generous dividend which means that our shares currently yield around 10% on an annualised basis."

[johnrxx99] 09/3/2007 08:32

By cash generation (sorry but I've been travelling but UK now) I mean cash generation, not paper but in the bank. Yes, it is not bottom line but it is real.

So often we are told that companies are making money but only because they are booking income, not actually receiving it.

By the looks of the breakout, the market may perhaps agree.

[stemis] 09/3/2007 08:01

Or put another way.....

I can be fairly relaxed about when the market will recognise the attractions of ITW when I'm getting 8%+ on my investment just from the dividend.

[silverfern] 09/3/2007 00:03

Another way of looking at all this is to say: 'so what?'about the share price - I'd go to work every day and settle for 8% OR 9% interest on cash. AIM investors tend to look at capital gains which is fair enough because the tax is less after two years - hang on! Have you ever suffered two years of investing in AIM shares? It's worry worry worry (check out Kebab's price concerns yesterday) HOw easy to know that rain or shine this company is cash rich, cash generating, somewhat immune to the goings-on in China and able to give you 8% every year. As a company to park some funds into, it requires very little brains. I hold over 20k shares so I'm biased (bought at 93p as well as 68p!) but I do feel this is very much undervalued and therefore a bargain.

[stemis] 08/3/2007 16:43

Taken a nibble myself.

Anything paying an 8% and growing dividend, with cash in the bank, isn't going to stay at this price. Would expect to see at least 120p in the short term as it becomes more widely recognised.

[diogenesj] 08/3/2007 14:17

Welcome aboard, bbd. This does look a bit of a nobrainer. Nice breakout too.

[bigbigdave] 08/3/2007 14:07

Just joined you chaps with a few 8-)
