If anyone has lingering doubts about investing in this Company I would urge them to watch the presentation currently taking place and available online after a simple registration. CH.

The high PER in my opinion is not excessive and simply indicates the market has identified the very real growth prospects for this Company. Coupled with the excellent dividend not a share to be dismissed. CH.

I was looking to buy in here but the p/e of 24 is an off put

[churchtower] 31/7/2014 09:53

These are excellent results, most particularly in view of the recent dollar strength. As a longer term investor I am more than content to continue to hold with the obvious growth prospects and the added attraction of a good and increasing dividend. CH.

The positivity probably follows the Apple statement last night, especially vis-à-vis the launch of a new I-Phone in the autumn.

[churchtower] 23/7/2014 11:05

Appears to be finding increased support at this level. CH.

Topped up today. Hope for a turn around in ftse fortunes soon. I think there is too much of a disparity between the ftse and dow now.

[churchtower] 11/7/2014 15:13

Adjustment of positions I should imagine. CH.

[churchtower] 11/7/2014 14:30

Can anyone throw any light on the 2.17 million shares that have just gone through, seemingly buys as prices are well in excess of current share price ? CH.

Back in again, looking for another 20p raise from 2.92. Willing to hold more long term. I have high hopes for this company.

New plant open good news. Any thoughts on the fact that airlines seem to be clamouring to have electronic devices used throughout the flight, surely this is right up Lairds street for its shielding capabilities.

[esteban1] 03/6/2014 21:09

philip, yea looks like you did dude. I was tempted to hold on today but couldn't guarantee being able to be anywhere I could sell late on if I needed to, so I bailed too. Nice short term earner though, just waiting for the next cycle! Good luck.

Looks like I was right. Unless tomorrow outperforms.

[esteban1] 29/5/2014 16:50

Sadly maybe a little premature Phil :-(

Let's hope the buying into the Div carries on - I'm looking at 310.
