Is there a reason for the current sell off?

[darias] 04/1/2006 17:16

Sold out at £4:46

Bought at £2:55 in June!

Trading statement due in March.Look about fully valued until then.
At least they are not affected by fuel prices , slowdown in US ,slowing retail sales etc.Last report indicated the mgt have ideas for growth.High rating seems deserved.

potential acquirer..
owned by much bigger pan european group
owner of payzone tried to buy paypoint but management team stepped in and here is it now.

What about PAYzone..... a simalar independent company in direct competition. Rival or acquistion target?

[wjccghcc] 15/12/2005 08:57

Well, I didn't buy because ultimately alot of the business will move to the internet IMHO. Plus earnings are forecast to be flattish next year as certain retailers move away from paypoint systems to incorporating it into their retail systems. But that was when the share price was at 350p so WTFDIK :)

I don't know if anybody else read the recent article in one of the financial mags about this share but the writer said that it was very attractive because it was one of the very few shares that had no direct competition.

Let's hope that it stays that way, and I'm quite sure that we all like a quiet thread as well.

Good things for next year I think

V11SLR,

I have to agree, although this seems to be defying gravity!!

Long may it continue.

To update on Cezary's header of 20th October 2004. Details as at 31st March 2005.
17000 outlets up from 14300. +18.9%
14000 retail outlets up from 11900. +17.6%
4800 epos terminals up from 3000. +60%
259 million payments up from 204 million. +27.0%
£2.9 billion in payments up from £2.3 billion. +26.1%

I wonder what they'll be now and with margins up to 38% from 28% this company must be generating cash at a fantastic rate. It's also nice that it doesn't seem to have been noticed yet!

It's all very nice but is it justified. Will it go pop??????

[shoee62] 06/12/2005 14:33

No idea.

Seems to be attached to a helium balloon at the moment.

Results were good, but since then haven't seen any coment on it - maybe thats a good thing

[amberspyglass] 03/12/2005 13:11

takeover target..
£10

[wishbone111] 02/12/2005 19:21

Can anyone see where this might go?

[darias] 23/11/2005 08:08

V.Good results (8.4m profit - interim dividend of 3p)

The club's purchase at £2.55p in June of this year appears to have been a bargain. Now with extended licensing hours and the machines in the pubs and off-licences this could be even better next half year.

[growthhunter] 28/9/2005 17:37

big tick up at the end.....any ideas?

[morjarias] 16/9/2005 12:26

PAY... excellent company on the rise again!!

[amberspyglass] 13/9/2005 20:55

dont worry about the margins. with profits growing it becomes a takeover target. people are waiting for this co. but if profits go any higher they wont be able to afford it

[stokieboy] 05/9/2005 08:02

Mixed messages coming from the co. today, find it a bit worring about the ever shrinking margins.

[hybrasil] 05/9/2005 06:24

profits running ahead of expectations.
Will that affect the share price

[simon gordon] 08/8/2005 15:39

Read this weekend that pre-paid debit cards are soon to be introduced into the UK for the non-banked sector of the economy. They have been a big hit in America.

[simon gordon] 31/7/2005 10:57

If this eventually happens it will be negative for PAY:

[omalaha] 01/7/2005 19:45

jeez, gone v.quiet on here. Seems to be solid support at 245p.

[satan 666] 20/6/2005 19:53

could be a takeover for paypoint,large customer base ,good cash flow ideal for companies the own ATM'S OR INVESTMENT COMPANIES SUCH AS 3III OR AMVESCAMP WHICH JUST HAPPENS TO HAVE BOUGHT MORE SHARES ON THE 17TH OF JUNE..INTRESTING..VERY...watch this space...
