It's coming, US markets back in rally mode.

ex div 12 Oct
Pay. 10 Nov

Yes that's the second consecutive day of atypically large volume, lets hope it continues so we get a break out.

[snadgey] 12/9/2017 18:16

Na to T/O in my view. Just getting back to a decent valuation. Div next month which may sustain the price.

[ny boy] 12/9/2017 12:19

Patrick, could be, it's the right time of year fora bid approach now the big players are back from holiday, an overseas predator better move quick as the £ is having a very good run now.

[patrick9092] 12/9/2017 12:16

Huge buying volume today.....sticking my neck out here...T/O ????

[ny boy] 12/9/2017 11:25

Powerful breakout when it comes, has failed here many times before but with US markets looking bullish again, it could be time, fast move to 200p likely but patience required, I bought on the last dip sub 150p, divi is ok.

Good cash generator this one, looking forward to the next trading update,

Rather have a few years of business gains than be taken out

[cheaky monkey] 12/9/2017 10:14

L2 anyone? Seems someone is building a sizeable stake here, dare we suggest a T/O is on the cards? Been so patient here over the years, would love to see this start to climb up to £2 and more perhaps?

Another 1m bought...this time @ 175.5

Earlier this morning the 1m was @ 168 and yesterday's was @ 167

Hmmmm...

[swiftascent] 12/9/2017 09:25

The cupboard is bare after that big buy

[shauney2] 12/9/2017 09:20

A big early buy seems to have shaken the cobwebs off.

[tdog1975] 12/9/2017 08:57

Something is going on, anyone know anything (will take speculation)

[gleach23] 12/9/2017 08:55

Another 1m bought this morning and on the up. Looks like something's afoot...

[swiftascent] 11/9/2017 18:59

Nice volume. Not holding my breath. There always seems to be enough stock in the cupboard for any trade with PHTM

[yf23_1] 11/9/2017 17:43

Somebody has got bored waiting !
Here we go ?

[gleach23] 11/9/2017 15:58

1m buys in 3 trades at 13.11 this afternoon and the chart looking poised for a possible breakout. Hope rises once again...

[ny boy] 01/9/2017 12:43

Patience, the breakout is coming, no rush, Company delivering, decent divi to alleviate the boredom!

[gleach23] 01/9/2017 12:41

Looking better today pnetol.

Hope the patience pays off - after 2 years of consolidation (2013-15) I've always felt any breakout will be all the stronger the longer the consolidation phase. Well it's now 4 years! Looking at the 7 year graph on quote page makes me think any upwards rerate could be quite significant.

In addition, PHTM is probably the share I least worry about in terms of delivering results...famous last words! :)

[pnetol] 01/9/2017 11:41

Gleach , many thanks for that, I've been sooo patient with this stock for the last 2 years and still have the faith, interestingly I wondered yesterday whether the stock was tightening up as it was the first time I've seen the closing auction go through 4p above the closing average and with over 50,000 traded

[slogsweep] 01/9/2017 08:24

Looks like a fat finger problem - 50000 bought and sold just after close. Closing price on sharescope shown as 165.75 which was the buy price of the 50000 subsequently sold for 160. looks like no overall change but has put a spike in my graph!

[slogsweep] 01/9/2017 08:10

whats going on in the share price - up 6p then down today

[gleach23] 31/8/2017 21:30

Hi pnetol....the AGM & TU is scheduled for 25 Oct this year

[pnetol] 31/8/2017 19:13

Well that was an interesting uncrossing at 16.35 today, over 50,000 shares at 165.75, when the shares were trading at 161.50-162. That's the first time I've seen good demand in the auction for quite some time. Let's hope that's the start of a run up ahead of the next trading update which was at the AGM last year which was on the 20th October.

[ny boy] 30/8/2017 23:48

Great Company. Happy holding, attractive divi, soon the share price will be over 200p where it should be. Very attractive at current levels in my book.

[snadgey] 30/8/2017 23:44

Also, if you listened to last year's presentation by the FD, PHTM are likely to be replacing all the Kodak photo kiosks with their own in the USA.

Interesting that in the latest Report no mention of car wash. Perhaps the trials have been delayed due to concentration on updating photo booths in France?

Agreed that laundry will become an ever increasing part of this company - FD stated as big as photo booths. Seems to be taking off in the UK now after a slow start but Europe and Ireland still the main locations. Be interesting to see what happens with the smaller units in Asia.

All statements suggest My Number is still on the cards but just delayed, though PHTM are excluding this side from any estimates for this year.

We also have the £2.5m from the land sale this year.

IMO Growing divi should provide some protection against large drops in share price.

Cashflow still very impressive (13p last year) which gives confidence that they can sustain the dividend.

All the best
