Price ussually finds it way back to gaps expecially since the results today were very strong.

250-260p target for starters.

One would assume there will be some press coverage over the coming days and broker upgrades?

[a2584728] 19/1/2017 09:14

I leeman, will it fill the gap once there?

It is essential that a good succession chain is maintained to retain the DNA of the business, a new set of eyes to assist always helps but the core need succession.

Thank you for correcting me Geovest, and I agree on the benefit of renewal of senior management. My point re a managed evolution still applies.

Just to correct the earlier post by Jerseman. Debbie Hewitt is NOT the new Chairman. She was appointed chair of the Nominations Committee, who will lead the search for a new Chairman.
Sometimes a company becomes big but some key managers may not have the skill set to run a large, complex group. NCC realised that it needs Board members skilled and experienced in running large companies. First was the replacement of the FD and now the Chairman. These are positive moves going forward.

Inverse head and shoulders with a clear target into the gap.

Taken £50k this morning.

Great results and great chart set up for a recovery doesnt get better than this imo.

[tsmith2] 19/1/2017 08:42

think you are right..can be much more to clear

I still get the feeling Aviva are continuing to dump, so more patience required before over-hang is cleared.

Reassuring results imo, especially the outlook:

""We have continued to see strong organic growth across the business, particularly in Assurance, albeit that earlier contract cancellations were disappointing. Our EBITDA has increased by 15% and we are maintaining our interim dividend at 1.50p - a clear indication of our confidence in our growth prospects for this year and beyond.

"With our global reach and increased product range, we are in a prime position to help organisations as they tackle compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) ahead of 25 May 2018."

The recovery should continue from here.

Jerseyman - tend to agree. Why would shareholders target Mitchell anyway. He will stand down at the end of May in a clearly managed process.

[igoe104] 19/1/2017 08:05

it looks more than acceptable to me, hopefully the start of a recovery.

[smokybenchod] 19/1/2017 07:53

Yeh slightly disappointed with EPS but tone sounds good. Cash flow starting to improve as well.

[tsmith2] 19/1/2017 07:43

Sounds like a reassuring tone to me, agree?

[smokybenchod] 19/1/2017 06:59

It's not a bad thing at all, and personally I think the move is good. Just hoping the market makers don't start playing games (if it is in fact true).

[tsmith2] 18/1/2017 23:07

Shareholder activism, isn't a bad thing at all

[smokybenchod] 18/1/2017 22:15

Just what we needed for tomorrow - not.

[masurenguy] 18/1/2017 15:53

Neptune Investment Management have recently added 1.7m shares.

[jerseyman1] 16/1/2017 16:22

FWIW Digital Look now showing consensus PBT of £37m/£44m/£51m for May 2017/2018/2019 respectively. The 2019 is new so I guess management have been briefing.....

[a2584728] 16/1/2017 09:24

Yes I hope to add a few more by then, we already know the numbers it's the forecast going forward that is of interest.

[tsmith2] 16/1/2017 09:02

Results on thurs

[a2584728] 12/1/2017 15:04

Apologies I meant CFO
