I am told Nabil is coming to Mello2022 and he really does need to meet investors. Anyway Alan will be there so you will want to be catching up with him and networking with hundreds of investors that you engage with here and on Twitter no doubt.

What suddenly happened here this morning?

Great to see this news getting attention and bringing in new investors. This really should be trading north of 2p even then the mcap would seem cheap compared to current revenues, H2 profit and growth potential.And I thought the markets looked ahead!

'I got told getting a kitchen fitted is fully booked out until almost November.'

Dave4545.....You need to know what the normal lead times are and it may differ from area to area due to availability of fitters and materials but if true across all the stores that may be a very good sign of a long and strong order book.

Conversely it can also mean you lose business if another supplier can offer a similar fitted kitchen by September. The year end has already passed so it will not affect the final results to June 2021 but if they do a trading update over the next few weeks then it will be that strong forward orders number that shareholders will be looking out for.

Just to be clear though.....this is not a stock for trading and you need to be a long term investor as the spread is wide and sometimes there is simply no stock available so the spike and large numbers of trades on Monday/Tuesday was a rarity.

You guys seriously need to learn how to read accounts.



That's your least helpful remark so far, George.

Myself and others on here are full-time investors with many years' experience in "reading accounts".

No one can be under any illusions as to the headwinds facing JLH. Nor did anyone argue that they have a strong balance sheet.

The vast bulk of my investments are in companies with very strong balance sheets that are going through a period of poor trading which has trashed the share price.

However, putting money into poor quality companies - like JLH - that are experiencing an upturn in business and are not in short-term liquidity difficulties is also a strategy that produces very high returns, if the price paid is low. Not ALL such investments will come off, but in aggregate it works handsomely.

Full year to June 20 and the interims to December 20 were released this morning.

As the investors and market tend to be looking forward by six months I think i can safely say this looks far more promising than it has done in six years...

Current Trading and Outlook

Our despatched sales and forward orders (which we consider to be the best measure of current trading) for the first 35 weeks of trading of the current financial year stood at GBP6.2 million (2020: GBP5.7 million). Future orders against which a first stage deposit has been taken stood at GBP2.1 million (2020: GBP0.7 million), of which GBP1.5 million is currently scheduled for completion by the 30 June 2021 year end (2020: GBP0.5 million). Therefore, the total of all despatched sales and forward orders is GBP8.3 million, which is 30% ahead of the corresponding period in the previous year, which was prior to the first lockdown beginning on 23 March 2020. Quotation activity within the business continues to be substantially up on the previous year which reflects a sustained consumer interest in home improvements.

An investor and a trader are having lunch. The trader knocks his knife off the table to see the reaction of the investor. The investor puts out his hand to catch it and the knife cuts him. Why on earth did you do that asks the trader ? I thought it would bounce replies the investor ......... Any company that has made losses five years in the last six, borrows from a specialist high risk high cost lender with onerous covenants as traditional lenders take flight, has a board that includes a new member with a string of insolvencies, a balance sheet that will probably include large net current liabilities when they are eventually published after multiple dubious delays, has its roots still stuck in bricks and mortar retail with about a dozen shops producing about 600k each at best, but none the less talks it up going into undoubtedly the strongest headwinds since WW2 despite having one sale after another, well it’s your money.

Excellent advice I think but these are small cap stocks and not really for traders as you need liquidity. As a trader those are certainly key points but investors tend to look far more long term and my average company holding time is probably around seven years so a bit like buying a property and settling down through each phase of life really.

Additionally I do not want too much excitement just good quality management looking after what I hope to be higher than average companies with potential. This one has certainly not worked out so far and it is over ten years that I have been a shareholder.....one day Rodders !!

Simso....the opposite. The directors are always very happy to discuss operations and strategy at length and last year held a meeting for investors at the interim stage too. The RNS is here....



That said only three of us turned up to the interim results meeting but at Agms usually held at the Fulham or Chiswick stores we have had as many as 20 shareholders attend so they do know we are keen owners. Defo worth attending.

Only had a handful of these but am now out at a loss; you dont have to make it back the same way you lost it after all.

I had another look at the numbers and I dont see that their £10m turnover, 5% margin target by the end of 2016 (ie so really 2017) is achievable so really its 2018 or 2019 at best....and by then we'll have another recession and this isnt the most recession proof business either in terms of sector or its reducing cash pile.

As mentioned above, in the short/medium term I dont see too much downside but cant see the share price getting moving - too small for many investors
