[The start of our 2022 financial year has continued to provide challenges as the project delays wash through and supply chain issues continue. We anticipate a loss to be reported in the first half of the 2022 reporting year but we are confident, supported by our record order book, in our second half recovery and our overall strategy.]

The loss for 2021 was much as expected but, in view of the company Chair's closing paragraph (copied above) I'm willing to stay on board and even add on any share price weakness.

Todays award of the £2800 Million HS2 contract for 225mph trains running from Londom to Manchester, are to be built from 2027-31 in Durham (Hitachi) and Derby (Alstom ex Bombardier).
This is very good news for LPA in the medium and long term.
Near record order book for train components 2023-2026.
The only issue is 2022, as Covid has put the train building program on a temporary hold.

Assets are generally held at cost less amortisation but asset value is a reflection of what they earn.

Another basically decent,if pedestrian ,company with a board out of its depth.
Needs to merge with a complementary business. Sharing central plc costs whilst adding to overall earnings.
PP was steeped in ops not certain new lot have the smarts.

NAV is higher than share price.
77/99pis the NAV range depending on which measure you choose

The share price marked up 2p at 14.30 but the 10k buy (which presumably caused it) not reported until 16.20. Does a 10k trade have market-unsettling potential?

Science Group!!!

Do you not think Martyn Ratcliffe has got his hands full at TPG currently?

[ansc] 03/11/2021 13:49

Only 16.5k shares recorded as 'buys' so far today which hardly warrants a 6p share price rise.

[ansc] 26/10/2021 18:43

50k bought (@ 59p) trade reported late of course.

10k bought at 59p late on so someone's got confidence.

Think you made the classic mistake Buywell of falling in love with this share and not seeing the negatives. This share has consistently let investors down for decades.

Lol yes that will be the next thing, its happening in China - this is what happens when we allow our politicians to pursue unproductive policies of separatism and make cross boarder trading more difficult. Still we'll all be rich soon as even unskilled jobs will be attracting the wages of doctors so I guess it wont matter anyway.

May come in useful during the blackouts. ;-)

Ripe for a takeover

[my retirement fund] 05/10/2021 18:50

Sadly I can't say im surprised by the share price performance here as I've been negative on this stock for years now. The writing was on the wall for it when we voted ourselves out the EU. It's difficult to see how it can ever justify itself now.

[castleford tiger] 05/10/2021 17:34

Hi

I first started here at 30p........many moons ago.

A market cap of 8 m when the NAV is almost double is a start.

I think the new team are sweeping all before them as its not on their watch.

If we get back to 20/30m turnover then a profit of 2/3 million should be achieved.

I think a good shake up is needed.

Downside must now be very limited and LPA have some good contracts.

I see/saw 60p as very tempting
