Look good to me so I bought in. I would like to sell more of my other holdings to get in. I joined the party at 87.5p after the initial rush where buyers were paying 89 to 90p. I certainly want to accumulate as this share is niche and very much off the radar.

[mfhmfh] 15/3/2016 09:06

Bullish results. Time to add. IMHO.

[saucepan] 15/3/2016 07:55

Pleasing results. Let's hope they bring a bit of buying interest.

[mfhmfh] 01/12/2015 11:52

another 2 small acquisitions today. slowly but surely becoming a stronger company.

[saucepan] 11/11/2015 12:29

Incredibly quiet here :-)

A small acquisition today, but the strategic fit and potential multiplier effects are manifest.

Does anyone know if Slater has taken a position?

[saucepan] 29/9/2015 08:06

Strong results, which the market has so far reacted positively to. Clearly, there are more acquisitions on the way.

[saucepan] 28/9/2015 15:21

Into blue sky now. Results tomorrow or Wednesday.

(And very quiet here; PTSG seemingly "off the radar")

[saucepan] 03/8/2015 08:48

A positive trading update today, which the market seems to like.

Spent some time with one of the senior directors who outlined their exciting growth plans. Proven senior management team, hugh opportunity to cross sell. Not so sure the short term growth will be favourable. The sales structure as yet has not been put in place. Currently on the sidelines until the first set of numbers. There will be long term value. I see a lower entry point.

I shall be attending the AGM on june 29th and shall try and get to the bottom of this short term sell off.

[masurenguy] 11/6/2015 14:36

Down 11% over the past 2 weeks. Value metrics could start to emerge if it drops a further 10%.

[saucepan] 28/5/2015 13:38

Noted thorne1; thanks. It would be great if you could share any feedback, in due course, on this quiet board.

I believe that the Directors of PTSG have the experience and knowledge to build a very significant business in building/construction services/training over the next few years.The recently published prospectus makes interesting reading in this respect.I bought quite a few shares around the 55p mark and will be attending the AGM in Castleford on June 29th to learn more.

Interesting, it looks like a promising growth company. However, the current valuation on a forward PER of circa 14 or 15 (assuming tax of around 20%) plus a PEG above 1, is rather rich for a new AIM listing with a risk factor buy-and-build strategy. One for my watchlist at this moment in time.

[saucepan] 27/5/2015 08:42

I took a look at PTSG yesterday and opened an initial position, following mention by mrx9000 on the ZULU thread: thanks :-)

PTSG looks an exciting young growth company:



PTSG came to the market on 11 February, seemingly without the usual IPO hype. The complete lack of posts here over the first three months of listing is, I think, indicative.The chart has not shown the typical post IPO volatility, but has crept up slowly.

28 April results [link in header] are well worth a read. They give a very clear picture of progress made to date and intentions for the future. What is also explained is how and where it is envisaged further organic and acquisitive growth will come from.

What may be worth noting is the statement "We have a significant pipeline of acquisition opportunities which have been internally identified and we expect to conclude our first acquisition as a public company in the second quarter of 2015.”

That news must still be in the offing, I suspect. If it is earnings enhancing, as it probably(?) will be, that might hopefully prove the next share price catalyst.

One thing that slightly put me off is that the current Slater PEG is 1.07; suggesting that the price might be up with events. However my hunch is that the acquisition, if/when it is announced, will get analysts re-working their forecasts.

There is a good Company presentation here:

[jahl frezi] 08/4/2015 06:48

assume there was a tip over the weekend? I look forward to the results and accretive acquisitions at some stage

[thorne3] 09/3/2015 14:53

Ptsg which recently floated on Aim seems to be a very interesting business in a number of niche service sectors.The business seems to have a strong team and is growing both organically and by acquisition.The Dec.14 accounts should focus attention on the business.This is an interesting business which could attract quite a high rating.
