The problem with JHD methinks is the other flooring plc companies are nearby penny shares. Take victory plc £ 13 to 40p and a big rise to 58p because of a director buy.

Headlam ?? Market cap £100m

JHD rise 4p which is c £ 20 m on market cap and Victoria rise 18p (18%) and that’s .02%? Of the debt


Thinking I’ll stick to games workshop and tech stocks

Wouldn't have thought it would be Flooring Friday, but bizarrely just been looking at LIKE (just posted on the LIKE board), and ended up taking a trade at JHD.

Stop hogging all the flooring fun!

Had a little go at 192p here for a short term trade.

Just wondering if it can carry momentum to over £2 again. Stick me stop at just under 189p if it falls down.

Quality company this, but it just looks like a trading share whilst folk pick up the dividend.

LIKE could interesting if you..erm....really are into...your...erm....flooring.

All imo
DYOR

16:37 UPDATE. Price has closed at 194.5p with strong demand on the book from 190p-194.5 and someone has paid £2 after hours for just 25k shares. Any more for any more? Roll on Monday!

"Firstly, let me welcome you all to our AGM. This is my last AGM as I am stepping down as Chairman.
Today we will approve our final dividend of 6.0p per ordinary share - yet another record dividend. This marks the 48th year of increase.
I am pleased to report that trading in the current financial year is on track to meet our expectations of continued progress.
In addition, cash levels remain strong and ahead of the prior year.
I, and the Board, remain positive about the market most particularly in the healthcare, education and aged care sectors, all of which are areas of government focus on investment both in the UK and overseas."


LHG, I have high expectations that you will be there to sample the Oysters.

Upbeat article in IC this week pointing out the long term strength of the company and its recent export successes combined with the impending boardroom switches of experienced operators. No debt and a £74m cash pile.
Mind you , IC has been consistently tipping JHD before and during the share price slide of the last 3 yrs.

May be wrong but a fair bit of the IHT value must be discounted by now, it is no secret and the AIM sector has dropped since Labour got in.
The AIM 50 is 5% down since Election but FTSE100 and all share are flat. The AIM sector has underperformed the FTSE in the last 3 yrs for other reasons , the AIM 50 has dropped 32% over that period whilst the FTSE 100 has risen 14%. The AIM All Share has dropped 40% whilst the FTSE All Share has risen 10%.
The clever money has already got out of AIM I suspect (sadly not me) though inertia and scepticism about the rule change has probably stopped a lot of tactical trading. Maybe the Gov will see a destabilising of the AIM and discouragement to future investment as too high a price to pay for the IHT relief but that is probably optimistic given the opportunity to tax the rich even more. The specific AIM portfolio funds will no longer be much of an attraction I presume.

Results due Tuesday I believe (1 Oct).

I think there is a general market malaise re AIM stocks; I'm guessing investors are expecting Rachael Reeves to remove the IHT benefits and so are switching out of many AIM companies. Disappointing but I suspect a short term blip in the grand scheme of things for well run companies like JHD.

Maybe you have some insight as to the share price. I think it’s small holders that don’t buy on weakness and like moaning .

But maybe the overdue trading update will tell us of the woes.

The share price looks like it is heading for a care home at the moment!
25 yrs of steady rise made JHD one of the darlings of the AIM market but this has been one of the longest dips . I suspect most of us are just holding on and awaiting a gradual change in fortune . If the new gov changes the AIM IHT rules then it won't help.

I made good money on JHD in the days of special dividends and a rising sp, sometimes dealing , but mostly sitting on them. Then I started doing a bit more trading , based more on price changes than investment logic , which did well for a bit but ultimately , I realised, is a flawed strategy. Buying low and selling high the same share will eventually result in either watching it sail away over the horizon sitting on the cash, or paying too much for a falling and failing share. I ended up with a portfolio full of lemons ,many of which eventually went bust . JHD was one of the safe investments which kept my portfolio above water during this period but I did sell most of them and bought back in a few yrs ago. Once referred to as the "darling of AIM" it has been disappointing to see such a solid company slide down the share price rankings. Ironically it was a main market listing that converted to AIM around the time of the share split.
I take a more cautious investment approach now, partly as I get nearer to retirement my strategy is changing. Never bought a Investment Trust or a Fund until a couple of years ago. I also acknowledge that the whole share trading/watching thing is rather addictive and part of the fun. I doubt many people here are completely detached from that. Or else they would never post I guess. It's a strange thing that after 23 yrs on advfn I have no idea the identities of posters ; the anonymity of chatrooms...
