Yes agreed;the shareprice is probably now up with events following its rise over recent months but I think if we see a further growth in profitability & return to dividends we will see more growth.I am certainly glad I bought here shortly after its share offer last year.It is my intention to hold for the long term.I have always liked this company,I was pleased to buy at a low price.

South Korea. See RNS 14.11.19 A temporary hit in my opinion

Chris or anyone else. - do you know why the share price was falling off well before the Covid crash last March?

"Revenue for the year to 31 December 2020 to be at least 6% ahead of market consensus expectations following a strong second half and seasonal trading performance." "We expect to announce the Group's preliminary results for the year ended 31 December 2020 on 18 March 2021." Lovely news :-)

Nice curving action on the chart could take this to 700p in short order because it looks cheap.

Isn't the reality that this year is a write off for most cyclicals and that the market is looking into 2021 and beyond to value businesses. Its totally excusable why any cyclical will have a bad 2020. Yet most of them are now rerating and I expect PMP to follow suit in due course. Forecasts are for this to get back over 50p of earnings in a couple of years time, which I think might prove a bit conservative, but even then a low-mid teens PE on that would support very substantial upside from here. Given the market is forward looking, I wouldn't be shocked to see Portmeirion post a very strong share price finish to 2020 Eric

It might. But then it might not. I hear scented candles are the number 1 best seller in the UK at the moment? Just in time for PMP's new production line, improved warehousing and on-line sales drive. Which is not to say that this will replace lost sales of posh crockery through shops - but selling on line is at a higher margin than through department stores and it gives PMP an opportunity to transform itself into a direct on-line seller as well as a manufacturer. Will they succeed? Who knows, and it won't happen overnight - but its got to be worth a try and better than a gradual decline as a supplier of posh plates to department stores whose days are numbered? cheers

Rise in cases in S Korea, might lead to tighter lockdown and shops closed.Same in the USA, especially ahead of the important Xmas season.There's a huge risk if lockdown is extended over Xmas, there is less incentive for people to buy nice crockery for entertaining.

A rate interim loss for the homewares group. Investor's Champion thinks it could be an interesting recovery play with plenty of focus on the online offering.

PMP were notified on July 2nd, and only announced it now?

[lord gnome] 28/8/2020 09:53

Next Question: Who sold?

[value hound] 28/8/2020 09:42

So Ruffer have managed to take a near 8% stake without budging the price?

[zangdook] 13/8/2020 09:09

Don't know if this means PMP snaffled a bargain or the seller dodged a bullet. Looks cheap on its face.

[mr_spock] 08/7/2020 15:36

Oh, how lovely it is to see a quiet thread. Must have had 600 posts today on the BOO thread.

[netcurtains] 08/7/2020 13:48

I'm in - liked the abolishing Stamp Duty....

[zangdook] 10/6/2020 14:10

2 for 41, more if we want them and others don't, @380p.

[zangdook] 10/6/2020 07:24

placing and offer and so on.

[chrisb1103] 03/4/2020 12:26

Long-term total BARGAIN down here.

They've shut the factory for three weeks but one week of that is regular planned Easter holiday. And they claim to have good depth of stock, and will continue to supply customers around the world. But yes, will they reopen in three weeks?
