Litebulb Grp Share Discussion Threads

"estimated turnover for 2015 is £37.8m" I wouldn't be surprised if it was even higher, the way they keep growing organically and also through acquisitions. Once this pops up on the radar of the city it should have a re-rating of the share price ..very good value at the moment, looking forward to the results around April time.

Significant ramp up in orders... In discussion with other US distributors.

Looking healthy.

Very nice 2 page coverage of LBB IN today's London metro. You can read online. They are doing very good.

I do believe they will hot or exceed there numbers for 2014

I don't see any major share holder sells re- Nigel wray etc.

I think it's just a slow cooker

I still wait in hope of a first quarter 1p surge and a bit more

Comments welcomed by more experienced traders and all

Persistent selling but in terms of value pretty small but enough to gradually see the price drift downI haven't seen any buys for days.I assume by now we would have had an RNS on Christmas trading if it had been spectacular, so have to assume not?

[neil78] 14/1/2015 16:47

Thoughts anyone ?

She is dropping being snipped at

Is it sells in order to buy

Is it just pure sells investors not impressed

Is it time to be concerned

[neil78] 10/1/2015 20:26

Orderly board so far re Litebulb and 113mike interesting post all I concurs with.

Hopefully it will prove a interesting first quarter 2015

Tern.fitbug.touchstone.to name a few have encountered some torid posts of late have to add i dabbled in a few of each.

Long may the small orderly Litebulb board continue

Remember this from rns 13nov..."The Board is pleased with current trading, with sales and committed orders as at 31 October 2014 now standing at over GBP20m for the financial year with two important trading months still to go. Individual group companies are performing well, with the earliest acquisition Bluw expected to show like-for-like sales growth of over 35% for the full year. This is a good indicator that the Group strategy is beginning to bear fruit".

Chart looking ripe for an upward move. Just needs a good trading statement release due in the few weeks. imho of course!

[yump] 05/1/2015 20:48

I'll get me coat.
Will edit that !

Done now. Apologies if anyone's head went pop trying to figure out what I'd posted.

Next time I'll get my 13 year old to do it !

1p eps, i wish, do you not mean 0.1p eps

[113mike] 05/1/2015 08:46

All very plausable... am staying in for the duration!

[yump] 05/1/2015 08:39

If its any help...

I bought these on a year view based on the forecasts of around £3.5mln pbt and 0.1p eps in the market.

However, those are I think pretty rough estimates, so there needs to be some 'wriggle room' for safety.

At the point where they appear to be on a growth path with profits, the p/e should rise to at least be significantly higher than 10. I'm just basing that on what happens to lots of companies moving into profit.

So the range for me came out as:

On target at 0.1p eps X p/e of 10, would be 1p share price, very conservative. x p/e of 15 gives 1.5p share price end 2015. If they did 0.1p and the economy is stable, it wouldn't be surprising to get a p/e of 20, which would give 2p share price.

If they miss and get eg. 0.075p eps, that is still good growth, so worst case a p/e of 10 x the 0.075p = .75p share price, or better a p/e of 15 x 0.75p which is around 1p.

So in summary my worst case was 0.75p and best case was 2p+.

Not exactly a no-brainer, but it illustrated the risk/reward well enough for me to buy in.

Finally, if they grow revenues from 24mln to 35mln as forecast, that is quite a growth rate, so the following year could provide fireworks if the profit drops out accordingly, but that's a long way out.

[neil78] 04/1/2015 17:26

Yump.

Ta for the comments well descripted

[yump] 04/1/2015 17:17

If you look back over some other companies that have started to have rapidly increasing share prices (excluding the loss-making hype ones), they all start with a fairly pedestrian yearly increase in share price. (Although I don't see how 50% in a year or so here could be called pedestrian).

Anyway, at the time they are steadily increasing, a lot of investors want more.

The point is that out of all the times to buy, the slow growth time is the one that doesn't expose you to a huge risk, providing you can see growth for yourself. Once the share price is up and away, the p/e often increases to risky levels.

At which point, if you're not invested, you look back and wonder why you didn't spot it earlier, although quite often nobody actually knows why the share price has taken off properly... and most times nobody really will.

If there's no growth in revenue or profit, then the 'flying' will never happen except as a fluke hype. If there is growth in revenue, its not difficult to work out what rating the share would be on, assuming certain profit figures. Then at least you know whether a valuation is years ahead, even when profits flow, or potentially only a year ahead as soon as a modest profit appears.

Probably preaching to the converted, but there's nothing worse than looking back to a share that you 'should' have bought, but thought it looked to be boring at the time. Or worse, one that you sold because you were bored and nothing else.

The new year has begun and Litebulb im sure have had a excellent year building upon revenues and a strong year end of which they themselves depend upon and have stated is a strong revenue source.

Leaving us now waiting possible year end updates or statement re trading etc. still a ways to go until results will be posted but hopefully again things are happening that will inspire the share price to push on. It's been hard looking at sub 1p,s all through 2014 I have kept the faith I guess because I believe there is more to come not much happens on this re comments on Litebulb either on this board or i from tipsters etc is that good or bad I don't know.

All in all believe it's worth waiting for results and see from there BUT, I can't wait forever bills to pay as the say

Always comments constructive welcomed

[vitamal] 22/12/2014 14:05

At 31 October they had 20m in confirmed orders. At the time of the interim statement they said they expected 20 m sales for year and profitabilityIt seemed they contributed 1.25 m cash in the most recent purchase I hope for a new year statement saying how wonderful Christmas trading isDream on

[neil78] 22/12/2014 09:44

It's good to know at least 1 fellow optomistic litebulb investor is out there. It's goingg to be a two year Iinvestment around the results time 2015 I am looking for serious upside from the sub 1p in order to keep further the faith. I still have not had anyone putting g there comments forward re projections thoughts revenues etc. I guess we're all not able to offer mu h in that respect only comments are keep the faith and I'm in.

Oh well

[113mike] 21/12/2014 18:32

Keep pos+. keèp calm and carry on! IMO this'll come good in 2015 starting in rhe next few weeks.

[neil78] 21/12/2014 16:41

The year is closing

Litebulbs year end closing also

Anyone interested to comment on revenue profits etc for year closing

And of course any thoughts towards a share price movement upwards that is.

And once more any thoughts on what it would take for the share price to move on to new inspiring levels

I've not seen much over the last 24 months left my eggs in this basket but they are at best at embrio stage quite a way from hatching

I again remain positive or is it hopefull

[neil78] 13/12/2014 06:38

113mike

Over a million shares not a huge holding but large enough for this venture as it stands.

Ya expect 2015 pick up close to results released

[113mike] 12/12/2014 22:52

N78..Not sure whats happened. Others may be able to shed light but it looks as though he's got more.. imo the new aquisition will be good for next year revenue..current revenue doing well..I think it'll be a gradual rerating over the next 12 months and beyond..current market sentiment not good so best not to expect a quick positive return... I have 550k shares left as i sold a few to go into KIBO which i've done well with. out of interest how many do you have?
