sell-off I guess due to Nigeria woes... currency and weak oil price hitting that country.. not sure how much it is a part of PZ Cussons revenue?

thanks for keeping the thread alive and, yes, I think you're right about Africa. Also some exposure to Eastern Europe ?

okish trading update... but basically says Africa a bit uncertain....

Solid looking trading update.

I am a holder, having bought in again at just under £3.56.

McBride results were not brilliant, and the one area of concern, to me, was the continued discounting of products. It must affect all producers margins. Having said that PZC has a territorial spread and the palm oil refinery should be a growth area going forward.

"Can see PZC doing very well in 2014".

On the back of Byotrol(BYOT) !!

Who themselves are currently suddenly showing exceptional relative strength.

yes, I can see the company doing well but what about the share price? At the moment I'm not invested and won't be at this price.

Agree that it was a high volume.

Toffeeman, I used as a reference the previous week average volume [128782] and I compared it to the one from 11th [706685], gives a ratio of over 5 times. For me and my strategy, it was an unusual volume.

Sorry about the multiple posts, my laptop link went on the blink temporarily.
It was/is very insistent that it was/is not connected to ADVFN.

Unusual trading volume today for PZC.
I have set a blog where I post daily the numbers for FTSE350 companies, and PZ Cussons took a top spot today. The blog is unusualvolume.hostoi.com , thank you for having a look and hopefully it can help in your trading decisions.

A large number of shares are held in trust by the company, so this is not the most liquid of shares. This can lead to swings in price at the time.

I agree these look like a solid set of results and Rafferty's Garden will add value to PZC. Any dips in price might make a good buying opportunity to top up.

Hi All, Today's interims seemed very pleasing although the markets didn't think so. Profits before tax and exceptional items for the six month period to 30 November 2013 increased by 7.9% to GBP47.6 million (30 November 2012: GBP44.1 million) and revenues increased by 4.1% to GBP431.8 million (30 November 2012: GBP414.8 million). There were exceptional charges in the period of GBP4.5 million (30 November 2012: GBP3.5 million) relating to the Rafferty's Garden acquisition and integration, the supply chain optimisation project, and the Group structure and systems project. Basic earnings per share were 6.66p (30 November 2012: 6.42p). Adjusted for exceptional items, basic earnings per shares were up 6.1% to 7.46p (30 November 2012: 7.03p).All I can notice is the net debt is up slightly but we did acquire Rafferty's garden.Still long
