Knocking at that 300p R for the third time this year. This dates back to Q401.

Trading Update


Macro 4 plc ("the Group"), a leading provider of Systems Management Software and
Document Management solutions, today provides an update on its expected
financial performance for the year ended 30 June 2005.

The Board anticipates that the Group will produce a Profit before Tax,
Amortisation and Exceptionals (PBTae), at the top end of market expectations. It
is expected that the Group's results will show a healthy increase in new
business, from both its Systems Management Products (SMP) and Document
Management software (Business Information Logistics (BIL)) business divisions,
as well as continuing tight management of costs.

The preliminary results will be announced on 13 September 2005.

Yup, agreed. Seems stability has returned to the software market allowing those companies who know what they're doing to outperform. I also hold AVV and STF, both of which seem to be delivering the goods :)

[cockneyrebel] 06/7/2005 17:19

Concensus I have is 13.99p and 16.95p for the year ahead.

7.7p eps pre exceptionals in H1 makes me think they can beat that 14p forecast for the year.

I actually think it's only going to take a decent beat for this year to see 2006 eps forecasts upped a few pence at the minimum. That alone would be a forward PE below 15 and the PE might be a fair bit lower too imo.

Small software companies seem to be doing very well, I think a fair few could beat expectations in the coming months.

[wjccghcc] 06/7/2005 16:35

They'll need to beat CR to see much movement IMHO. I have current forecasts as 14.2p rising to 16.1p giving a PE of 19 dropping to 17. Good company though.

I prefer CGR (although less liquid) which is on a PE of 12.5 for the year just finished (trading statement in line) and about 8.5 if you strip out the cash.

[cockneyrebel] 06/7/2005 16:13

I reckon a trading statement will move this up significantly and probably cause a breakout too.

Buyers just building for it now imo.
