Posted at 20/8/2012 08:45 by a0502162 EXLOG......Took you a while come back with that! Considering it was a "dead cert" LOG wasn't going to get a higher bid.What I can't understand is why take a hit on LOG shares when you could have just done the hedging bit and kept more of your money? As I said before...........Bar |
Posted at 06/6/2012 23:05 by exlogicalad I am not barking mad, I am quite sure of my abilities. Just so AO502162 can watch and learn, I will explain my madness. Firstly I am in profits for the year. I purchased 25,459 Logica shares at about 10.35am this morning at a cost of £27162.87 inclusive of Stamp and dealing. If GGI gets LOG at 105p and nothing were to happen I would lose a max of £430.00. However, to hedge any losses I sold to open 20 contracts of the Sept 96p puts at 4.5p which brought in £900 less £40 costs = £860.00. If the CGI deal doesn't go through, then you can accuse me of being barking mad!!! because LOG would drop back to under 96p and I would be in the brown stuff. Hey AOOOO, fools rush in!!!! |
Posted at 03/6/2012 16:57 by a0502162 I don't think much of Green or others like him either. But it's because the British are normally so complacent is perhaps why these guys get away with it time and time again.The other point is one I made in a posting some time ago................a Don't know why I even mentioned it. I mean if it was it would be what's called a sh*fting. |
Posted at 31/5/2012 14:23 by skinny This is from December 2000 (as CMG before the LOG takeover) after their earlier peak in the mid £20s - some things don't change.STOCKWATCH: CMG leads fallers after 'cautious' analyst briefings14/12/2000 12:09:24 LONDON (AFX) - Shares in CMG PLC were leading the top-line fallers following cautious briefings from the company to analysts which gave general guidance on the company's full-year results due February. At 12.00 pm, shares were down 107 pence at 888. "It was a cautious statement. People always look for CMG to be materially above expectations, and I just don't think we'll get that," Lehman Brothers' Glyn Lloyd commented. He expects full-year pretax numbers to come within the market consensus of 110-123 mln stg, but does not expect to see any massive upside or massive downside. "I'm not sure where the median is, so while they're coming within the range it's still uncertain whether that will be slightly above or slightly below," Lloyd added. Other analysts also commented that the company's decision to defer its results to the end of February was causing concern. Some speculated that the company may want to see as much as it can of the first quarter before providing an outlook statement. Today's falls mean CMG shares are trading at a price earnings growth ratio of around 1.4. "Given that multiple and growth, it does factor in everything they are going to do, so it's probably is trading at around the right level," Lloyd said. "Even if shares do recover from here, I'd expect them to come right back to these levels come February, when forecasts will probably come down." CMG's guidance for its telecoms division suggested it will be on a sub-25 pct margin, meaning margins have deteriorated for the last three halves. Lloyd added that, although no specific guidance was give, he suspects top-line growth "will be double rather than triple digit". "Benelux is coming through, but attrition is slightly raised from 13 to 15 pct -- still above the industry, but a tighter labour market means that has to be watched," he continued. Admiral, CMG's 1.4 bln stg acquisition completed in April, continues to perform below expectations with a 30 pct attrition rate, analysts said, while the French division will produce a loss rather than break-even expected, and Germany will be slightly below estimates. Both analysts attending the briefings -- Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch -- kept recommendations and forecasts unchanged, with Lehman's stance staying at 'outperform' and Merrill recommending a 'buy'. However, Lloyd said he was recommending investors switch to Logica, which has outperformed the sector on both an annual and three-month basis. He also retained a negative outlook on the short-term prospects of the sector. "We're going into a number of results in the first quarter which are not going to be fantastic because of a downturn in the sector overall," he said. "Besides Logica we'd not be aggressively recommending very much, to be honest." |
Posted at 14/3/2012 09:19 by a0502162 You have to look at the market as a whole, or hole depending on your view, and basically the MARKET is recovering from all time lows not just LOG. Which in my view means the good companies will continue to grow as profits increase while the duffers will drop back when reality creeps back in...............tak |
Posted at 13/3/2012 22:13 by robwt chrisgail..I agree with you on that. More than one big player could buy Logica if we are seeing the start of a bull market. The rise in the share price from recent all time lows could mean that someone is building a stake. That is the only reason to hold after collecting the dividend, We shall hope. |
Posted at 13/3/2012 21:32 by chrisgail peea01 My view on value goes along these lines adjusted EPS 11.3p 2012 should see some up lift lets say 10% giving EPS of 12.4p I feel that Logica should be on 15X earnings giving a fully valued price target of 184p. They say the dividend will be 40% of earnings so a share that still offers 5% yield. So I see Logica as a long-term hold because if they are that badly run a company and robwt says they are someone will come along and take them over to release the value. |
Posted at 06/2/2012 14:21 by a0502162 Hope you are right...............Would log be 1 of the 10 shares you pick in the hope of it being one of 1 or 2 that bring in the gold? Or just 1 of the 10? |
Posted at 02/11/2011 11:46 by miata Panmure GordonWarns - but it could have been worse We are pleased with Logica's Q3 IMS. Yes - the company warns on margin and talks about "pockets of softness", but we had flagged that this would be the case indeed the downward guidance change is not as steep as expected. Sure, Benelux continues to deteriorate, but UK is better and there is some thaw in Public Sector and organisationally Logica is creeping in the right direction (220 offshore heads added 16.5% of headcount). Also 14% staff attrition is up 100bp YOY helps margin. Our demand side research shows that new staff are cheaper than existing ones. There was no specific mention of cash but note the unchanged guidance of net debt/ebitda of less than 1.0 as we have 0.99 so we are relaxed about cash and the ability to pay the dividend. Dividend yield is a very attractive 5.4%. Expect share price weakness but we retain our Buy. |
