Bullish engulfing candle yesterday

[loafingchard] 26/5/2017 16:45

Strong again this afternoon, good luck holders

Following the recent rather meteoric rise I think there may be a risk that this has now gone above current fair value. Cannot find any analyst cover. Any views here? pete

Well, it's after twenty past eight and they seem to be going quite well.......

Nice article in the Mail today, blowing their own trumpet a bit but nonetheless true, boring but reliable:-

[loafingchard] 01/3/2017 14:14

Agreed, reads well. Always nice to be ahead of expectations. Happy to hold. GLA.

Johnson Service Group PLC Preliminary Results is a good read

[polype78] 28/2/2017 12:34

Ive just been reading the report today. Growth seems a good bit of terminology.i like growth.

[loafingchard] 01/2/2017 17:20

Old mutual have added a further seven million plus shares since October, crossing over the 11% threshold. That's pretty keen , they must be hoovering up most of the volume .Imo , dyor .

[loafingchard] 13/9/2016 16:00

Big volume breakout continues, dyor

[loafingchard] 09/9/2016 14:17

Absorbing some decent sized trades.....

[paleje] 06/9/2016 07:18

Good half year results, divi up 23%, acquisition performing better than plan and FY continues to be slightly ahead of expectations.

[paleje] 12/8/2016 15:19

Slow and boring but it's getting near the 100p mark again helped by all that extra laundry the inbound tourists and stay at home holidaymakers are creating:)

[paleje] 05/7/2016 07:34

Solid pre-close statement this morning, all going well and FY will be slightly ahead of expectations

[paleje] 28/6/2016 15:59

Strange movement in this one over the last several days, not Brexit related methinks. And some massive buys today at low prices then up she goes again all very convenient. Trading update within the next few days, expect it to be decent and integration going well.

With the pound dropping, trips to the UK might increase and hotel rooms likewise, all good for the laundry business:)

[johnsoho] 08/6/2016 14:27

Reckon this just might, at long last, break the £1 barrier

[wad collector] 02/3/2016 09:02

Or down...

[johnv] 01/3/2016 20:02

Chart gives the impression it should start to move up

[johnv] 01/3/2016 20:01

Perhaps it was the debt increase.

[wad collector] 01/3/2016 17:01

Positive looking results today but share price suggests that the market was not impressed and closed where it opened.

[blueliner] 30/11/2015 11:40

Certainly is a nice acquisition and eliminates a main regional competitor. Those holders who bought in back in the dark days, well done.
Unfortunately I didn't.

[johnsoho] 30/11/2015 11:19

A nice acquisition I think.

Acquisition of Ashbon Services Limited

Johnson Service Group PLC ("JSG" or "the Company"), the leading textile services group, has acquired the entire share capital of Ashbon Services Limited, a specialist linen hire and laundry business based in Lincolnshire, for a cash consideration of GBP6.25 million, on a debt free, cash free basis.

Ashbon, which serves the catering, hotel and leisure industries from its processing plant in Grantham, complements JSG's existing Stalbridge, Bourne and London Linen businesses, providing operational efficiencies and additional production capacity for the Midlands and North of England.

The acquisition is expected to be immediately earnings enhancing and follows JSG's successful acquisitions of London Linen earlier this year and Bourne in 2014. Ashbon reported revenue of GBP4.5 million for the year to 31 October 2014 and has a history of year on year revenue growth.

Chris Sander, CEO of Johnson Service Group, said:

"Ashbon is a strong business and it shares our core values of quality, reliability and service. Its 20,000 sq. ft. processing plant perfectly complements our Stalbridge, Bourne and London Linen operations, and will enable us to improve the service we offer to our customers in the Midlands and North of England. This acquisition furthers our strategy of buying businesses which can be integrated easily into the wider Johnson Service Group."

What can you say!!! A whole mass of automatic trades at the end of the day knocks the share price down by about 4 pence.... AIM AND MANIPULATION springs to mind!!!
