And what does Mr.Market think of the results..........

I think it is better to look at this as a 'private company' until it is taken over or taken private.

CWA1, I think you are right. This information will, I guess be in the annual report. Odd it is not in this release.

Happy to hear from the company twice a year with most metrics going in the right direction.

[cwa1] 13/12/2023 07:56

Happy enough on the first glance

Have I missed something? Can anyone else see the ex-dividend and dividend payment dates that are normally included in a finals announcement?

[galles] 13/12/2023 07:39

Growing business, now at 21% earning yield, 8% dividends, very conservatively run. Just lacks the excitement ?

[playful] 13/12/2023 07:08

He finished that statement before the kettle boiled.

[97peter] 01/12/2023 14:27

Maybe a new investor seeing the light and buying in?

[battlebus2] 01/12/2023 14:00

UT trade again above offer price.

[97peter] 16/11/2023 09:37

KnPuss - Great to hear and I think the share price is turning in the right direction. We should get a date for AGM and divi announcement soon! Once interest rates come down in 2024, plus Gaza situ and Ukraine situ are sorted, the world and stock sp’s can bounce?

[konradpuss] 15/11/2023 21:11

Two wars, a bad set of politicians, high interest rates inflation and a total lack of investor interest in most U.K. quoted companies. Also note what many listed companies are doing - buying back their own shares. They obviously feel they would rather not risk investing in new areas of business rather consolidate what they have at below intrinsic value.

Well are we surprised at the share price?

When I bought my stock (above this share price) I bought a small part of the business.

I was and still am happy with the price I paid. As I said before 'only monkey picky

bottom'.

just out the stalls but 4 miles to go I think

[cwa1] 15/11/2023 10:18

Off to the races at last?

[cwa1] 14/11/2023 10:20

Minuscule speck of blue has appeared against ORCH...

[battlebus2] 02/11/2023 14:58

True Konradpuss but unlikely.

[konradpuss] 02/11/2023 14:47

battlebus, I believe that quite a few golf clubs have close anyway as none of the young have time to spend five hours playing a round of golf and then pontificating in the bar.

I think a few private schools might close when VAT goes on school fees after Labour get in. Now did you see what I did there?

As to property any bank with loads of exposure to offices/commercial property (think Handelsbanken in the U.K.) will suffer some pain now and for some considerable while.

Now I am not predicting a depression although you never know. Who was predicting a banking crisis in 2007? Not many.

Why would Ravi not see any benefit in meeting investors at this conference?



If investors have cash and want to pick the bottom and trust management teams before they invest then this is the time to be out there introducing Orchard.
He may pick up some business too.

[konradpuss] 02/11/2023 14:13

Peter, on another view we could be heading into a depression. Golf club closed, private school shut and lots of property loans defaulting. Now that's an ugly
scenario.

Who knows.

[97peter] 02/11/2023 13:58

Kpuss this is the bottom! My prediction for day before divi date is 42p. I think the ex-divi dates could be around 21 Dec?
AGM and announcements I am chasing next week with Ravi.

[97peter] 02/11/2023 13:45

BB2 and CEA1 - Patience prevails plus the tick up maybe due to others and people like me chipping away and buying 10,000-25,000 shares each week?
Onwards and upwards, the company is well run , has lots of great clients, plus new avenues like Bridging loans, schools and golf clubs all adding to the solid state of its loans to solicitors/accountants and others clients, as well as Toyota UK, a well run company and business!!

[konradpuss] 02/11/2023 13:43

'Only monkey picky bottom' I wonder if this is it?

[cwa1] 02/11/2023 13:27

Nice to see a little tick up in the bid

[battlebus2] 02/11/2023 13:23

Interest rates held today. The optimist in me hopes this is the peak and 2024 will see them fall back. This can only be good news for ORCH.
