12/8/2017 19:28	On looking again at the 10 July statement I see that results for "the year as a whole" should meet expectations. This suggests that the half year figures due in September may be a little disappointing. Let us hope that prospects for the second half justify a restoration of the dividend. Like several others here I am a long term holder but I did reduce my holding in Jan & Feb this year which now looks prudent.	varies	Read Full Thread Reply
02/8/2017 21:54	I held these a few year's back when Chris Powell was in charge. Think him leaving has also probably increased the risk. He was a safe pair of hands in my view.	topvest	Read Full Thread Reply

02/8/2017 20:26	topvest How right you are to be nervous about cash flow. I hold shares in BLANCCO (BLTG) where debtors are proving a problem and fear this this is a typical hazard for companies trading with unreliable foreigners.	varies	Read Full Thread Reply
02/8/2017 20:11	I'd be a bit nervous about cash flow here with so many big contracts in the Middle East. Year-end results already showed a very big increase in debtors. Always a heightened risk in this part of the world. Could be fine of course.	topvest	Read Full Thread Reply
02/8/2017 19:58	The steady fall of the share price is depressing but these shares have always been difficult to buy or sell in any quantity. I think that I must have held some of mine for 20 years and trade them occasionally. A return to dividends would be very welcome.	varies	Read Full Thread Reply
02/8/2017 16:44	That trading update repeated the May news about the Lockheed Martin contract extension and the March news about the Canadian Department of National Defence contract amendment, both of which added substantially to the company's revenue prospects - but the effects of those additions were of course already in the share price. Then it said "Pennant is also pleased to announce additional contract wins and extensions during the Half Year, valued in aggregate at over GBP600,000." I at least found that figure of ~£600k a bit underwhelming after the earlier contract announcements - not any sort of cause for concern, but enough to temper the high expectations I had for the half-year results to somewhat lower ones. That hasn't prompted me to sell - I'm very definitely a long-term holder, with my earliest purchase now nearly 11 years ago. But I can very well imagine it prompting other, more 'trading'-oriented investors to sell. And the stock is illiquid enough that it doesn't take all that much selling to cause share price falls, which are liable to prompt more sales by 'trading'-oriented investors - so there's probably a bit of a sales -> lower prices -> more sales feedback loop happening at present. Or at least that's my guess. I don't think it's Brexit - Pennant's sales are very internationally based, while I'd guess much of its cost base is in the UK. So the pound falling as a result of Brexit probably acts in its favour, lowering costs relative to revenues. And while the trading statement did mention Brexit, it was only to say that they hadn't seen an effect: "Notwithstanding current economic uncertainty surrounding the recent formal commencement of the UK's Brexit from the EU, the Group has not yet detected any loss of confidence from its global customer base."

10/7/2017 08:19	18.5m revenue for 2018 according to the broker this morning.That should give a 2.6m pre-tax profit a resumption of the dividend at 2p per share with net cash of 3.7m.	hastings	Read Full Thread Reply
10/7/2017 08:03	Some of the remaining £9m could be for 2021 onwards?	cockerhoop	Read Full Thread Reply
10/7/2017 08:00	Read it again! Total forward orders are £42m, of which £33m is NOT for delivery this year (2017) but over the following 3 years (2018-2020), implying £9m is for delivery in the remainder of this year.	boadicea	Read Full Thread Reply
10/7/2017 07:27	If I'm reading that correctly - 33m for delivery in 2018, as revenue?	owenski	Read Full Thread Reply

07/4/2017 09:18	Hi Simso, very disappointed to hear that they pulled out of Mello, not once but twice!Regarding my position, I sold the bulk of my shares on the badly handled snook departure, but was subsequently happy to hold the remainder after being largely reassured on speaking with the new CEO on results day.In terms of my notes, I penned an article but I'm dictated by time and space.I will resubmit that once the company announces some further news.	hastings	Read Full Thread Reply
