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 05/12/2011 14:19 by robwt The Government is supposed to be clamping down on Fat Cats who award themselves huge pay rises. They should start with Logica's Andrew Green and his board of cretins who have been giving themselves huge pay rises while destroying shareholder value. While the rubber lipped moron bolsters his bank account with shareholder funds many a poor investor has seen their Logica investment fall by 70%.It is shameful, but these slimeballs are sociopaths who have no regard for anyone but themselves. It is time Green and his board were sacked and made to return the millions they have taken from shareholder funds. Green has almost destroyed Logica and is being paid millions to do so. Laws must be changed because the fund managers who could do something about it.. are either spineless or on the take. |
Posted at 10/10/2011 12:02 by robwt Logica has been a disasterous investment for fund managers and private investors alike, Andrew Green has an appalling reputation as a total failure, the 'Eddie the Eagle' of the IT world. IBM, Cap Gemini, Infosys have better people working in their canteens. However, because the company has been recklessly driven into the ground by Andrew Green and an inept self serving board of no hopers, the share price has dropped so far and so fast that the company is valued at just over £1 billion and has dropped out of the FTSE 150 after many years. Shockingly the share price is almost 50% lower than in May of this year and today it received another downgrade by Barclays Capital. Andrew Green has put Logica and thousands of it's employees in grave danger of losing their jobs, what a disaster this useless bloke is. In my opinion there could be a bid for Logica while the company share price lanquishes at all time lows. This company could be bought and broken up because the sum of the parts could easily outweigh what it could be bought for. It is sad, because it would result in many of the 39000 employees losing their jobs. Of course the good thing would be that Green and his board would lose their fat cat jobs, but that is the result of their own incompetence. |
Posted at 23/9/2011 11:49 by robwt Yes, the hapless Andrew Green really has taken Logica and driven it into the ground. I shudder at the thought of this overpaid twit and his useless management reporting in November. The share price is tanking as investors jump ship. The only hope for Logica is to fire the board, Andrew Bean I mean Mr Bean sorry meant to say Andrew Green has been a mega disaster, get shot of this 24 carat loser, he couldn't run a newstand. Get a headhunter to go to Apple Corp and ask one of their junior staff to take over from Green and I guarantee they would run rings around the useless Logica CEO. I have less than 20% of my original holding and I ain't buying. |
Posted at 25/8/2011 13:49 by robwt Autonomy, ARM, Imagination Tech, NCC Group, Computacenter have all shined for investors and according to Motley Fool are prime takeover targets. They all have one thing in common, good ambitious management. If those companies were racehorses they would be Classic Winners. If we dare to compare Logica to the above, try to imagine a grey headed 'Mr Bean' on Blackpool Beach leading a tired old lame donkey trudging along the sand pulling a cart filled with an overweight Board of Directors. Buy this share if you like the colour RED when checking it's progress. |
Posted at 18/8/2011 08:12 by robwt The big funds mentioned in my earlier post are swiftly losing patience with Logica and several other non performing companies who constantly prove to be losers. Talking to other unhappy Logica holders it is as plain as day that the company has made no progress since Green took charge. Pensions aren't worth investing in, fund managers are like lemmings. Small investors have given up on equities and a major sea change will take place as all confidence is lost in badly managed companies like Logica. The recent sell off of Logica is now just a regular occurence and Andy Green's performance is a mirror vision of the failures of Martin Read. People are sick and tired of backing losers. How did this guy ever get to be a CEO, sadly it says it all about the tenth raters who are paid fortunes for failure. Market just opened and down again. |
Posted at 16/8/2011 15:55 by robwt Memo to Andy Green Logica CEO. Just a reminder of the large holders of Logica shares and the small investors who you have caused to lose nearly a billion pounds. Your lack of leadership, markets, economics and business acumen are responsible. Don't you feel deeply ashamed, are your ears burning 'Mr Bean'.

Posted at 11/8/2011 16:42 by robwt I see that HIMANSHU RAJA ex BT and Logica's recent appointment has been awarded a shed full of share options under the incentive scheme. While small investors have recently paid up to 149p for shares in this dog and now sit on big losses, RAJA and the rest of the lousy management get the shares free. Makes me sick!Green...Three tips on what Logica should be doing. Act with acumen and get rid of yourself Mr Green..resign and take at least half of your hapless board with you. Stop giving incentives for failure out of our money. Failures do not deserve wages let alone rewards. Make no acquisitions, there is no one on the board of Logica can be trusted with a decision to buy anything that costs more than a cup of coffee. Hopefully, someone from a proper company might see Logica as a an acquisition as the shares have almost halved. Make our day Mr Green and do all of the above. |
Posted at 05/8/2011 10:25 by robwt Now for the questions in the webcast. I am listening to Green humming and hah-ing and not sounding like a man in control. Green sounds like 'Mr Bean' reading from an idiot board, sadly not very convincing as the top man. The big investors in this company should be demanding his head on a plate. I have just turned it off, makes me sick. |
Posted at 06/5/2011 12:25 by jacko07 Mr or Ms AO, I did ask for the opinion of Logica investors. But I have now decided that I do not want any opinion that are just negative all the time without explaining why. The report this week has been positive.You are like that old fellow on the 'Harry Enfield Show' who is forever going around shouting, 'dont do it like that, do it like this'. Admit it, you are a just an opinionated boaster who has no interest in Logica. I have invested in Logica with a long term outlook. I am not showing a loss but even if I were it should be none of your concern I am an adult. As you profess to be a guru in investing, do you worry about and post to all the long term successful investors who show a loss at sometime. From the books I have read written by Jim Slater and other successful investors it is quite normal to have losses. If you keep posting just for the sake of annoying people, you are more crackers than even I think you are. Why not drop a line to Warren Buffet, he has made some big losses lately. |
