JDG analyst presentation 18th March 2020.

JakNife not such a chump it would seem....

P?E of 25 reasonable for a biz such as this in a normal market, but what is normal?

[jaf111] 10/2/2020 12:57

Will it hit £60 or £50 next?????
Continued weakness of £ makes £60 favourite imho.....
But perhaps I'm biased (being long!!)

[someuwin] 10/1/2020 14:26

Starting next move up?

[slogsweep] 09/1/2020 08:55

May due a share split could open it up to a new range of buyers put off by £50 a pop share price. 10 for 1 seems about right. JDG has had an incredible 10 years from 70p

Not such a chump, just a few days too early!

[steeplejack] 23/12/2019 11:53

Near doubled in six months and up a third in a matter of weeks.Strikes me as excessive but I'm clearly not in the know.Wish I'd held on!

[firtashia] 19/12/2019 10:19

Great stuff, alter ego. Not far short of its all time high set at the beginning of the month. Its a good sign that people are willing to buy on any weakness.

[alter ego] 19/12/2019 09:47

you're not alone. just sitting back and enjoying the dividends, not to mention 11 bagging on the share price

[jaf111] 19/12/2019 09:41

As I was saying (clearly to myself!)....Up down up......
Certainly liking the renewed weakness in £
Where next....£60?????

[jaf111] 12/12/2019 09:30

interesting.....where are we now.....as The Grand Old Duke Of York might say????

now down 20% from its peak only a couple of weeks ago.......

[slogsweep] 05/12/2019 08:11

Correction It was Shares that advised taking profits at £50.5

[mobtheplod] 04/12/2019 16:37

IC have had this as a hold for last couple of updates due to them not making any acquisitions for a while - well they have now. I just think this is perfectly understandable profit taking.

[slogsweep] 04/12/2019 16:15

IC recommended it a sell recently and usually thats a buy signal certainly looking beter value at these prices

guess the acquisition is too small yet to make much difference in the scheme of things though it could grow rapidly.

[zangdook] 04/12/2019 13:42

They paid 2.3m for a business with profits of 0.6m and the price falls?

[cornishman33] 04/12/2019 07:16

Another 'immediately earnings enhancing' acquisition. Moorfield Nanotechnology.

'Moorfield's accounts for the financial year to 30 June 2019 show revenues of GBP2.5 million and pre-tax profits of GBP0.6 million. Net tangible assets amounted to GBP1.7 million, including cash of GBP1.5 million.
Moorfield's operating profit for the year ended 30 June 2019, adjusted to eliminate non-recurring items and to reflect Moorfield's ongoing cost base within Judges, would have totalled GBP0.6 million'.

[jaf111] 27/11/2019 09:02

After a brief pause it looks like JDG on the march again......clearly investors picking up shares for the £2 special divi......

[alter ego] 21/11/2019 08:25

and not long to wait for payment. very happy.

[jaf111] 21/11/2019 08:15

management very quick to respond to yesterday's fall in share price......I understand they call an emergency board meeting and this was the response!!!!!!
Roll on £60......

[xajorkith] 21/11/2019 08:00

Nice Christmas present from JDG :)

[nk104] 20/11/2019 15:49

I think this is the first 10-bagger I've ever had! Bought in at 480p in March 2012 also from assiduous lurking on the Motley Fool boards.

My main regret is selling half the holding over the years. Still got 100 left though.

[steeplejack] 19/11/2019 11:04

What draws ones attention here,is not that the stock has gone up so much as how quickly it has risen in the last couple of months.It was in the low 30s when the most recent results were announced and is now some 60% higher.I can't help thinking that there is a chronic shortage of good quality,well managed stocks in the UK.When they do emerge funds flock to them like starlings.Look at Halma today for example.Update pretty much in line and yet the stock rallies by 12% in short order.
