Next year tips shortly, at least Kainos has one tip for 2020 from Share Magazine yesterday. Would be nice if a national newspaper were to nap it for 2020, then I reckon 785p.

Motley Fool don't need to do that, they are well establish and respected.

Know that place well someuwin. Watched many a movie there. Interesting. Always adds a dimension when investing in a local company

They're currently planning a much bigger HQ...

"Tech firm Kainos will take on a massive proposed office scheme in Belfast for its new headquarters, it has emerged.
The firm, which has 12 global offices but currently has its base off University Street, is taking on a planned 250,000 office building at the site of the Dublin Road Movie House cinema..."

Hadnt realised KNOS was from my home city. Pass the Microfocus office every now and then. Maybe Belfast is lucky with digital stuff

[someuwin] 19/12/2019 19:36

Late RNS showing that the big sell yesterday was QUBIS taking a bit of profit. Can't begrudge them that, they still hold 11.74%

(For those who don't know, QUBIS is the commercial arm of Queen's University Belfast - from where Kainos started all those years ago.)

KAINOS from Shares Magazine
A desire to go digital is one thing that unites organisations both large and small. From ordering a pint in a pub via a phone app to calculating a tax return, plus a million more things, this is a multi-year transition that will separate winners from losers. Among those thriving from this structural growth trend is Belfast-based Kainos (KNOS) which helps large organisations transition their processes and operations into the 21st Century digital world. Kainos is one of the key IT expertise suppliers to UK Government departments, often writing bespoke tools and software services for the Cabinet Office, Home Office, Driver & Vehicle Licencing Agency (DVLA), Department for Transport, Land Registry and others. The company is also one of 35 global accredited installation providers for Workday, the $37bn US human resources and financial planning software platform. Kainos provides implementation and testing for users of Workday enterprise management tools. It also runs Evolve, an NHS IT system including things like electronic medical records that help streamline the service delivered to patients. One of the real attractions of Kainos is this multipaced, segmented model. It means as growth temporarily slows in one part of the business, the slack can be picked up elsewhere. This has been illustrated over the past couple of years. While Evolve has been muddling along due to years of austerity cuts biting into NHS budgets and investment spending, other parts of the business have been progressing at a blistering pace. In the year to 31 March 2019 its digital services drove revenue growth, up 69% to £132.6m, with momentum in both Workday implementation and
on UK Government digital transformation despite parliamentary deadlock over Brexit concerns. If politicians are to be believed we are on the cusp of some of the largest healthcare and public sector digital services investment ever. That’s really exciting for Kainos and could unleash huge opportunities that could make current earnings forecasts look far too cautious. The high price-to-earnings multiple will worry some investors but we believe the premium is justified by Kainos’ high-quality track record and impressive cash dynamics. It has £42m on the books with no debt making the balance sheet as bulletproof as they come.
SHARE PRICE: 718p MARKET CAP: £878m FORECAST EPS 2021: 18.9p

This board used to be informative and factual with few, but well mentored comments. When it was at £4 where were all you "Mystic Megs?" We knew then as we do now that this is a good company, hence we are here without the need for incessant repeat ramps!

[irishlass2] 19/12/2019 15:49

Someuwin, Could you advise, pls, the top 10 shares for 2020 from Shares Mag? Many thanks.

[montyhedge] 19/12/2019 15:40

Analysts will be sharpening their pencils after the Queens speech on NHS spending. Kainos must benefit 34 billion pounds earmarked for NHS.They want efficiency, computer software by Kainos must be up there for Tories.Doubler in shareprice for 2020 in my opinion.

[montyhedge] 19/12/2019 13:29

Your in good company someone paid 717p for 25,000 shares.Let's hope market maker has gone short hoping to pick off sellers at 712p to satisfy the bargain and then another big buyer stuffs him, lol.

[xtomo] 19/12/2019 13:07

And my prediction is that folks keep changing their predictions! As I've asked before.. predict this weekend's lotto numbers.

[montyhedge] 19/12/2019 13:03

Wow someone just bought over 200,000 pounds worth. These are going higher boys. My prediction 2020 will touch over 1450p.

[someuwin] 19/12/2019 12:48
