15/9/2020 08:50 | ...still its back to school GLOBALLY - one would have thought the picture going forward would be a relatively quick recovery from covid for the likes of Pearson.... I cant see many kids taking a gap year this year as no where to go and no jobs to do - so one assumes Universities will be quite full of UK students making up for most of the loss of overseas numbers..... And the study from HOME model suits Pearson too. Theoretically Pearson is a no-brainer BUY .... But who knows, | netcurtains | |
15/9/2020 08:10 | Year after year they disappoint the market, the sooner a buyer appears to put shareholders out of their misery the better, but is there any real value left. | bookbroker | |
15/9/2020 08:08 | Probably a soap opera, or maybe a comedy. This company should be thriving, but it has sold off its best assets to be left with a white elephant. Shocking mismanagement, online learning should be booming, but the people running this company would struggle to run a food bank! | bookbroker | |
15/9/2020 08:03 | Pearson now a popular TV series: | netcurtains | |
15/9/2020 07:09 | Fallon has been an unmitigated disaster for this company, the bloke should never have been given the top job to start with, and frankly he has spent most of his tenure clutching at straws. Speaks volumes for people out of touch with reality, the staff are expected to excel while the chief can behave like a schoolboy dunce, as for the next idiot, it seems his pay packet is more of a priority than the future of the company. Why are people who are supposed determine the future of a business put such faith in said individuals, this has once again blown up on Pearson, and is now having a bearing on the valuation as opposed to righting this sinking ship. The Chairman, Taurel, is as much to blame, clueless fool! | bookbroker | |
11/9/2020 08:21 | Pearson has an awful lot of "intangible assets" - a shed load!! Does anyone know what these assets are? I was guessing it might be "potential royalties from books/authors" (eg ownership of the rights of such and such) To my mind some companies intangible assets are worth a lot more than others. And I happen to think "ownership of rights to..." is actually more tangible then a lot of tangible asset | netcurtains | |
10/9/2020 16:33 | PeterBill: I tend to leave such matters to those who know the people. So I will probably not be voting. | netcurtains | |
10/9/2020 16:29 | On 24 August 2020, Pearson announced the prospective appointment of Andy Bird as Chief Executive and as an Executive Director with effect from 19 October 2020, conditional upon the passing of the Resolution. I am therefore writing to you now to set out the background to, and the reasons for, the General Meeting of the Company to be held on Friday, 18 September 2020 and to set out the Independent Directors’ recommendation that Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolution that will be proposed at the General Meeting to approve an amendment to the Directors’ Remuneration Policy to allow the grant of the Coinvestment Award. Neither Andy nor the Executive Directors have participated in the decision by the Independent Directors to approve the proposal or their recommendation. In view of their respective executive roles, the Board considered it appropriate that neither John Fallon nor Sally Johnson should participate in the decision to approve Andy’s proposed remuneration package or the recommendation. Capitalised terms used but not defined in this letter shall have the meanings given to them in Part III (Definitions) of this document. Where this circular contains references to the “Board” in relation to the approval of Andy’s proposed remuneration terms, the proposal contained in this circular or the recommendation to Shareholders, the “Board” refers to the Independent Directors. 20 page document ... how's everyone voting? | peterbill | |

10/9/2020 12:46 | This is how INSANELY CHEAP Pearson , naw I must have this wrong, - have I worked this out right??? : Pearsons net assets (assets - liabilities) = 4313.... Eg if Pearson was liquidated this is potentially what we'll get. However its Market cap is only: 4003 So company that makes about £300M a year is worth MINUS £300M (eg its trading below its assets minus its liabilities) | netcurtains | |
10/9/2020 12:20 | The recent results basically state GLOBALLY that school exams will recover this year - eg all schools are back and exams are 90% certain going to take place this year..... Thus, unlike more or less any other industry, we can say Education should recover well in 2020 - there is no real expectation that exams will be cancelled again. | netcurtains | |

10/9/2020 09:04 | Pearson Global Learners Survey: | netcurtains | |
10/9/2020 06:43 | The time for online education in UK is now. Pearson have to stand up to the plate and produce the required online courses - especially A Levels. Pearson are in the eye of the storm. | netcurtains | |
09/9/2020 15:07 | Pearson has been successfully delivering online courses to primary and secondary students in the US for over 15 years. We teach courses to 70,000 students a year in America and 48 other countries around the globe. We've applied our thousands of hours of online learning experience, combined with our expertise in A level teaching and learning materials, to offer something that’s right for UK students. | netcurtains | |
09/9/2020 13:25 | Some pretty serious trades showing up | netcurtains | |
09/9/2020 08:48 | They march them up and then they march them all the way down again. LOL Be interesting if it finishes the day up - I dont see why not... The kids are back at school - that is job done for most of the nations education. I also suspect less school leavers will be taking a gap year as no where to go and no jobs to go to either so universities should probably do ok as well - might as well go to university rather then sit around doing nothing for months on end burning up universal credit. | netcurtains | |
09/9/2020 08:26 | A 1.5 Million trade... The big buyers and sellers really like to shift this stock around | netcurtains | |
08/9/2020 15:58 | Nice finish | netcurtains | |
08/9/2020 14:06 | On the whole the half year results from Pearson in JULY 2020 look quite good: The outlook appears good: 2020 outlook - anticipate recovery but uncertainty remains · Global Online Learning - will benefit from higher Virtual Schools revenue following strong growth in applications with OPM in line with expectations. · Global Assessment - Pearson VUE recovery is expected through the delivery of pent-up demand, assuming test centres remain open; potential further modest impact in H2 for US Student Assessment and US Clinical Assessment. · North American Courseware - continuing print declines and modest digital growth, uncertainty on enrolments, and school closures which could impact our Advanced Placement sales. · International - H2 is expected to recover as lockdowns ease and schools, private language schools and test centres reopen. The UK Government has now approved Pearson to open bookings and start delivering Secure English Language Tests (SELT) for UK Visas & Immigration (UKVI). · We now expect our full year net interest charge to be c.£60m after issuing a 10-year Education Bond of £350m in June 2020. · At this stage, it remains difficult to predict the ultimate disruptive impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Pearson's performance for the full year. However, the second quarter performed in line with our expectations and, while risks remain, particularly around enrolments in the back to school period and local lockdowns impacting schools reopenings, based on our current assessment of these trends we are on track to deliver adjusted operating profit broadly consistent with market expectations. | netcurtains | |
08/9/2020 13:22 | Looking a bit better now | netcurtains | |
08/9/2020 10:55 | Interesting price to enter- RSI increasing. Trend might be reversing. Price was up this morning so possible chance might retrace to this mornings price. Mmm still going down.... Perhaps a bit longer | netcurtains |
