report seems reasonable
good dividend
will wait and see if 2019 figures are any better
plenty of cash at the moment

[ntv] 12/6/2018 09:21

never understood why their last statement didn't include the fact that some of the nett cash had been used in a small share buyback programme

[ntv] 20/4/2018 09:00

bought a few recently
nett cash
interims seemed to imply that second half would be better
good yield looks safe at the moment
making an attempt to grow using some of the cash
we shall see what happens

No special divis any more plus a reduction in profit.In otherwords a dividend cut and a profit warning dressed up with lots of lipstick and powder.Further to fall imo 70p ish

Small acquisition in Hong Kong
Hopefully a lot better than surplus cash in the bank!
And good that they are trying to grow in Asia

No special divi tho

Good results though

I'm out. got fed up with director sales and options. Never been in a company before where I owned more shares than the finance director. The share price is all over the place thanks to them.

[deadly] 22/3/2017 14:24

Very quiet here. Big drop last two days.

MRF has the company said when the final is to be paid and whether there are likely to be any specials as last year?

Roll on next dividend please.

[my retirement fund] 21/9/2016 14:36

Director thinks so

[my retirement fund] 09/9/2016 00:37

Rising almost everyday. A bit of a hidden gem me thinks.

[my retirement fund] 23/8/2016 16:52

Offer being lifted certainly turned a corner

[melton john] 21/7/2016 19:15

Strange investor psychology isn't it? Lower the price and people walk away, raise it and people come running before they lose out. Having said that we've all been caught catching a falling knife, I know I have. I will certainly buy more on weakness. Paul Scott on Stockopedia gave them a good review on 23june and I rate his opinion. There's always the brexit factor putting people off shares but cash in the bank is certain to lose value imho.

Ditto cant understand how these are so undervalued must be yielding 8% now. Just hope there's not something under the hood of the company that we are not aware of. That said surely it would have surfaced by now.

Good spot Melton John, had not realised that - perhaps time to follow the director and top up then.

They have income from offices in Asia which will have a beneficial effect on earnings because of exchange rate. From final results-


" Outside the U.K., Hong Kong proved the 'standout' performer and made the largest contribution to group NFI of all our business units.

Our Middle East business, based in Dubai, also generated strong fee income, especially in light of negative sentiment linked to the falling price of oil. Nevertheless, the Board continues to watch the region carefully and sets conservative expectations in an uncertain environment.

Singapore performed slightly below expectations due to staff changes. However, the office finished the year strongly and we have confidence in the staff structure of the office going forward. Our Prime Insight team in Singapore has grown, with the business area showing signs of maturity and we are expecting improved results from it in 2017."

Director duying today- not much but at least he's not selling ;-)

[melton john] 23/6/2016 13:11

That usually happens when I find a good share :-( . I think for the time being, the directors are happy running the show and will spin off surplus cash so as not to be too tempting a target with a low share price AND lots of cash in the bank.

[my retirement fund] 23/6/2016 12:56

Someone will snap this up oneday given its humongous free cash generation.

[melton john] 23/6/2016 12:53

I may regret it short term but I made a small top-up this morning. They may drop back a few pence but long term I don't think I'll regret it. I agree they seem cheap bb2 lots of growth, cash generative, no debt and no need to raise cash like the story shares. A banker I think.
