Come on guys - wake up - gift-horse alert! gift hourse alert!

PE for the year just ending 9.5, Director buying loads, and they say they are confident of meeting, fwd PE 8, eps growth 140% the year gone.

Last director buy was for 220K.

From the interims ""Our markets remain strong both in the UK and internationally and continue to provide excellent opportunities for organic growth. We are confident of making further good progress in the second half and producing results in line with expectations."

And a 2% yield to boot!

If you can't see the glaring upside where's the downside?

All sleeping I guess? Look at the confidence with the last resuls and Friday's director buy imo

CR

A non-exec buys 220K - nice.

These are screming cheap imo.

Well I presume it was the traders that bought in yesterday that dumped this morning.

I think these are are cheap still. Perhaps I have to wait for the year end results for it to be proven but I can sit on my small few till then.

Yes, I must admit I expected more from the first half, but note that management still expects full year results to be ahead of forecasts.

I sold half my holding at 123.8p. Still thinking what to do with the rest.

[topvest] 22/11/2006 08:20

Looks a sound company to me. Good results and good outlook.

[chester] 22/11/2006 08:17

Its possibly short sighted of me but I closed my position this morning at the same price I got in at yesterday.
Good luck to you guys still in.

[supreme mo] 22/11/2006 08:09

screen sizes look week. on selftrade you can only sell 375 shares without having to ring market, but you can buy 7500 at 125.88. Screen sizes change all the time, but these could go easier today.

GL all.

Diluted eps of 4.4p 'in line' for the full year forecast, so (bearing in mind last year was 15 month period) I'd guess 10-12p+ for the full year given a traditionally stronger second half and divvy should be 3p+ for the year.

Pretty good on a shareprice of 125p. However bearing in mind Chemistry Communications (plus CHCP) on course to do 3p on share price of 13p perhaps it is for now better value. Still hesitating.

Edit: Just decided to take small profit. Might get back in later today if they slip too far.

[ianreid] 22/11/2006 07:53

A quick look says this has been a weak half against expectations - probably due to expansion. I find it hard to believe that they will now do 13p for the year, maybe 9-10p would be a good target. Still respectable, but being cautious I'm out.

[cockneyrebel] 22/11/2006 07:44

good results imo.

paying a maidem interim divi greater than the whole of last year's divi. H2 the stronger half - did over 6p eps in H2 last year when H1 was a loss.

They also say recruitment in the property sector is strong.

Must be cheap, 15% growth in H1, looks like being strong in H2 imo and a PE of 10 or less? Divi growing well too.

Cheap imo

I was told by someone in the know that these could/should get to £1.50 and above during 2006. Up until last week I didnt thinkit had a chance. Tomorrow should be interesting and maybe my target will be exceeded-hope so anyway.

[cockneyrebel] 21/11/2006 14:55

Oh, she's cooking - and these were virtually flat on the year up until yesterday so not much gain in them yet.

PE still single digit I guess compared to MPI and RWA on 20 or there abouts.

Looks a cracker imo.

CR

[saucepan] 21/11/2006 14:54

Well done Chester! Nice 7% surge. Let's hope there is more when results are announced tomorrow - assuming they will be as exciting as hoped.

[chester] 21/11/2006 14:54

wow, this one moves when it gets going.

[chester] 21/11/2006 14:46

Seems I'm not too late....

[chester] 21/11/2006 14:35

Bought a few today. I should have bought a while ago when Saucepan first mentioned it on another site.
Hopefully I'm not too late to the party.

[cockneyrebel] 21/11/2006 13:47

Moving up, results tomorrow.

CR

[cockneyrebel] 17/11/2006 10:23

Added this am, think I moved the price.

Results next week look like they could do over 14p for the year, would put the stock on a PE of 8.5. Considering MPI and RWA trade on PE's of 20+ that's very cheap imo.

The company having said it had a strong start also gets my juices flowing together with Director Lewis increasing his holding by over 10% buying nearly 100K shares just after year end.

Think these could go a fair bit higher.

CR

[gazzastrip] 16/11/2006 15:40

Price going up generally,I reckon theres some good news to come out of the results to come shortly.

[saucepan] 16/11/2006 11:43

Have gone long at 114.6p: buying the breakout, and the hoped-for momentum to and beyond results.

AGM statement
"2006 has got off to a strong start with net fee income in the first quarter 14%
ahead of the same period last year and we continue to trade in line with
expectations"

Having been 20% up for the 1st 2 months, June must have been very quiet. Let's hope it was the 'footie' effect.
Shares up 6p to 105p on a 9% spread.

[gazzastrip] 12/6/2006 10:33

Big rise today and on very little volume (to date anyway). Perhaps there is some positive news about to be released?
