Medica Share Discussion Threads

[steve3sandal] 25/7/2017 19:38

Before I go doubting myself I just thought I would re-read the AGM statement from 28 June....it states.....

"Medica has continued to perform well in the first half of the year. The NHS cyber-attacks in May did not impact Medica's own systems and IT infrastructure, and the Company was quick to work closely with affected clients to minimise patient impact and to ensure that Medica could respond to referrals as soon as these clients were back on line. Recruitment of radiologists has continued to be strong and the anticipated full year 2017 results remain in line with the Board's expectations.

The Company will provide a further update at its half year results in September."

....that seems OK to me. I have bought a few more. Just looking expensive on trailing metrics...perhaps explains the drift...anyway 10% cheaper than June peak.
Good luck to all.

Thanks lomax, seems surprisingly low given no CAPEX of the business and high cash generation. No history to go on and 1 broker so could be different when results are released.

c. 0.7% YE 31/12/17, based on 1 broker forecast. Split 1/3 & 2/3 between interim and final payments.

Wish i could add more here. Does anybody have an indication of the FY dividend expected?

[lomax99] 24/7/2017 11:35

Added again.

Looking at adding..........volatile today.......

[lomax99] 21/7/2017 18:46

Adding here!

Thanks Chizgreen68. Certainly can't do any harm if more investors are made aware of MGP. Paul Scott frequently comments on the fact that too many new floats do too little to court private investors and then suffer from a lack of liquidity as a result and I'm inclined to agree.

No worries. I came across this also:

[chizgreen68] 09/7/2017 23:11

Sorry it was Times not Telegraph - no new insights, positive comment on the opportunity

[joshgroeny] 09/7/2017 20:13

Another write up in the Sunday Times too.. Ian Cowie's column in the Money section. Looking rosy for tomorrow..

[thebigshortfella] 09/7/2017 18:43

Chizgreen68 - thanks for highlighting. Sorry to be a pain but I can't find it online. What did they say please? Thanks.

[chizgreen68] 09/7/2017 17:53

Nice mention in the telegraph today

[thebigshortfella] 04/7/2017 23:52

divinessence - if you don't mind sharing. How much is your stake in MGP? Thanks.

[divinessence] 04/7/2017 16:20

Bought,

Buys virtually all day.

[divinessence] 04/7/2017 14:01

That's great news. Solid company. I will buy more

[leoboy] 04/7/2017 13:12

holding MGP 2.1% ...

[lomax99] 04/7/2017 12:12

Hargreaves Lansdown have just announced that they have added MGP in their HL Select UK shares fund. According to their fund listing, they now hold 2.1% (of their fund in it), approx. 5.4M shares.

Looks that way to me Glaws2.

Isn't that actually Blackrock reducing - 6.5% down to 5.82% and Standard increasing (crossed the 5% threshold).

[thebigshortfella] 30/6/2017 15:11

all47fish Interesting! I love the idea of that! Good old Larry Fink!

[ali47fish] 30/6/2017 14:49

is blackrock adding?

[thebigshortfella] 28/6/2017 14:14

Dibbs - I agree with all your comments.

Did anyone attend the AGM?

[dibbs] 28/6/2017 07:25

Reassuring trading update with the AGM. Any news should help to get MGP more on the radar than it is currently. A bit more broker coverage would be nice.
