We were 171.25 to sell at 16.29, then a huge cross at 16.35 at 177.25 hence the closing price, quite bizarre and very unusual on this stock, any thoughts????

Andy Brought of Schroders was very bullish of Photo-Me on CNBC this morning citing in particular the laundry side of the business doing well in Japan and France.

A bit odd to have such a jump when no news about. Its part of the ftse250 bounce from yesterday's big 400+ fall. ftse250 bounce of 263 today (according to IG Index).

But Photo Me hardly fell yesterday. 11.25p rise today.

Photo Me profits will benefit from sterling weakness.

Lol, fat fingers £1.70-£1.80 trading range, £1.79-£1.80 would be a v v tight trading range!!!

The first MM is Winterfloods at 1.70, if we can hit that then hopefully it means that the current supply from 165-169 is exhausted. Having been incredibly patient on this stock I would be delighted to see us move up to a new trading range of £1.79-£1.80 ahead of the forthcoming good results.

I can only assume that their is still a seller out there drip feeding the market with stock at the minute. Hopefully results day will finally clear this as I think that once the market starts to realise the prospects here over the next few years then we will hopefully attract a raft of new investors. Prospects here look very good IMOFrench photo booths upgrades almost complete, likely to increase the prices charges, margins will improve further. Roll out in Germany of the ANTS photo booths, hopefully further details announced with resultsRollout of 150 new photo booths in Ireland and 150 upgraded to allow secure transmission of passport docsTo me the jewel in the crown will be the laundry business. Consistent roll out, more self service laundrettes and the roll out of the smaller revolution 2 machines in the Far East. I love any RNS where they mention the words "very well" this was with regard to the opening of their first laundrette in Japan. And finally the Japanese "my numbers" programme should restart this year, if it hasn't already done so. I'm holding very tightly to my shares as I think the next 12 months should be quite exciting. My hopes are a share price of £2.20-£2.40, with the dividend increasing a further 20% next year, along with another special dividend.

Every knock on sterling, (almost) whatever the cause, is good for the Photo Me bottom line.

I wonder what instigated the large director buys back in December? They haven't really borne much fruit - yet. Can't help wondering if a transformational deal fell through. I seem to remember it was c. 158p and close to 2 million quids worth. Maybe he found the money down the back of a sofa and thought, hey, why not.......

[swiftascent] 07/6/2017 09:03

Nearly low enough for a few more.

[ny boy] 02/6/2017 11:23

Good news will be rewarded, just hold and relax the road ahead will be golden. Big players will be buying soon. That will enable the share price go finally break long term resistance.

[shauney2] 02/6/2017 11:17

Nothing not to like.The fear over passport photo apps seems to have passed.

[deanowls] 02/6/2017 10:46

If two sells that big have gone through its positive, someone has bought them and it removes them from the book.

[ny boy] 02/6/2017 10:40

Just have to be patient, tuck away for a few years, live off the divi, exciting times ahead. Imho worth buying any decent dip and hold long term, I bought late 140p's and have added quite a few times on price opportunities.

[retsius] 02/6/2017 10:02

Strange reaction for such a positive update. Two massive sells of 1.3m each has gone through, which can`t help the share price Why sell on good news,seems illogical.
I would definitely think of buying more,but lets see how the share price pans out today.

[pnetol] 02/6/2017 08:37

Yes That is the first time Germany has been mentioned specifically.

[felix99] 02/6/2017 08:33

dont think that update good enough to push it through trading range . Lets see the detail in the results.

[valhamos] 02/6/2017 08:32

Seems to have been one or two jittery investors here. Hopefully the announcement will calm things down.

Was the reference to the roll-out of ANTS booths in Germany new? I can't see any mention of it before. If so, suggests agreement with German agency similar to France and Ireland. Can only be a matter of time before UK has to adopt as well imo.

[cestnous] 02/6/2017 08:26

Somewhat disappointing share price reaction atm.

[shanksaj] 02/6/2017 08:16

Sighs of relief all round.

[deanowls] 02/6/2017 07:36

Should push us through the range we are in at the moment.

[ny boy] 02/6/2017 07:06

Excellent trading update, business rapidly expanding, divi on the rise, all good, holding long term.

[napoleon 14th] 01/6/2017 12:02

Credibility gap here, I agree.
Very underwhelmed by their vacuous behaviour, esp. when contrasted with the hype about their "Revolution" laundrettes & technologically advanced photo booths. There's a screw loose in there somewhere, but how big is the said "screw"?
Exceptional divis are all very fine, but share price should have performed by a mile compared to the doldrums it's been in. I've been a LTH for years but have run out of patience.
