22/1/2015 08:56 | Looking good here this morning.Nice run up since November. | dimotane | |
25/12/2014 03:27 | Hi Eastbourne1982, Thanks for your thoughts, is that the depth of your analysis? I've been led to believe that shorters have to do much greater research and analysis than bulls due to the higher risk they take. Is this true or are you just taking a punt? Regards Maddox | maddox | |
24/12/2014 23:19 | Stuck this one on my short radar, nothing wrong with the company and the recent news has obviously been good however it has pretty much rocketed from £3.50ish to around £4.64 today, seems overblown to me. FAO bigdazzler - Are you looking to go short again ? | eastbourne1982 | |
19/12/2014 10:43 | Have high expectations for SGE in 2015. | essentialinvestor | |
04/12/2014 15:32 | Hi Amigos, Great set of results from Sage, and great start by new boss Stephen Kelly. The performance was of course on the cards as anyone looking at the previous results could see. Mr Market seems now to have taken notice. With growth on track to hit 6% pa margins of 28% profit margin, growing divs and share buy-backs. What's not to like? Regards Maddox | maddox | |
04/12/2014 11:58 | Great reaction to a really confident conference call and results presentation yesterday. | essentialinvestor | |
03/10/2014 10:05 | Well done on your short, I think this is strong longer term prospect, have traded SGE previously. The rating had become a little rich, much less so near these levels, all imv only. | essentialinvestor | |
02/10/2014 15:22 | Still it's nice once in a while to moan that a trade has gone with you too quickly!! | bigdazzler | |
02/10/2014 15:17 | Essential I have just closed out at 356. The reason I have closed out is the fact it has hit the bottom of my trading channel today. This channel has been in place since March of this year so I have to stick to my discipline. I know this contradicts a little what I said yesterday as I still believe this drop may have a little to go. My hope was the daily declines were going to be a little smaller and they were going to hit the bottom of the trading channel around the 350-346 mark. Which for me is the interesting trading point around November into early December last year. Trading hit a short term resistance of around 351 during this month and then from the 3-4 dec gapped up from 346 to 361p. This was the area I wanted to target either to bounce off the support area of the 350 or to close the gap. Extending my trading channel I had this to complete around the last week of this month. But as I've said I have to stick to my trading plan and today it's hit the bottom of the channel and out I go. May be too early and I shall be watching for a further entry. | bigdazzler | |
02/10/2014 13:45 | bigd, are you looking for the gap up from about 343?. | essentialinvestor | |
01/10/2014 08:32 | You may be right bigd on lower levels, tough market. However they are reducing the share count at a rapid rate helped by exceptional cash conversion. They do not need large increases in revenue to continue to do this, and gearing remains low. Short term difficult to call, longer term prospects look attractive just imv. Also rate the new CEO, expect a step change in growth ambitions so more in fill acquisitions to come imo. | essentialinvestor | |
01/10/2014 08:21 | I would love sage to make to 225 as the title suggests however I think that's a little optimistic. However decline still has a way to go. Short trade is doing well at the moment. | bigdazzler | |
07/8/2014 23:06 | Chairman buys again. | essentialinvestor | |
07/8/2014 23:01 | Hi Guys, Great immediate reaction to the appointment of the new CEO Stephan Kelly up 11.4p 3.08% to 381.8p. Let's see whether it stays firm? Regards Maddox | maddox | |
01/8/2014 17:44 | Hi Essential, Taking advantage of a market dip is something I like to do. Nothing fundamentally has changed but Mr Market is happy to take 10p less than the day before. At this price 366p the div yld at 3.4% is supportive together with the buy-backs. The growth figure is important. If Sage gets back into the sweetspot of growth and income - then a re-rating will follow as surely as night follows day. Regards, Maddox | maddox | |
31/7/2014 10:28 | Maddox, about to buy here, looks fine to me. Some downside risk to forecasts, but why the market is so fixated on a specific growth figure is beyond me - although in fairness the CEO keeps banging on about it. Cash generation and the reducing share count are the main buying factors for me. | essentialinvestor | |
31/7/2014 10:03 | Sage continues to buy-up shares but the share price continues to fall. Seems that there are plenty of weak holders or are shorters providing XS liquidity? | maddox | |
31/7/2014 09:53 | Thanks Mellors, tax is an area I'm not well informed on, particularly in the US. I tend to agree with Obama though, companies should pay a fair proportion rather than try and avoid paying using overly aggressive methods. The US firms seem to be the worst offenders - I haven't bought a coffee in Starbucks since. Regards, Maddox | maddox | |
28/7/2014 22:47 | The US tax system is harsh, in that it taxes worldwide income at a very high US tax rate. If you expect to have a lot of your growth in the rest of the world those sales are going to be taxed very highly unless you are willing to leave the money overseas. Move your head quarters to Newcastle (Tax inversion) eg Abbvie Shire Maddox always interested in your posts | mellorscarthwaite | |
28/7/2014 11:26 | Hi EI, Very solid update I'd say. They have hit a couple of issues in the Q3 but still anticipate meeting expectations - so obviously have wisely built-in a bit of slack. They are also maintaining their 6% organic growth target for 2015. The dip in the share price suggests Mr Market isn't as confident as Sage is. Regards, Maddox | maddox | |
28/7/2014 11:16 | Hi mellorscarthwaite, Does a 'tax inversion takeover' mean the opportunity to acquire accumulated tax losses with a takeover? If so, they do but I believe it not very likely to occur. Sage have't tended to acquire early stage businesses with tax losses. What they have done is takeover profitable businesses at good prices. These are thus immediately value adding as Sage trades on higher p/e than the target and the acquired profits are immediately re-priced at the higher p/e. Regards, Maddox | maddox | |
25/7/2014 12:55 | No idea on that, update look fairly solid, may be slight downside risk to forecasts?. | essentialinvestor | |
25/7/2014 12:11 | Does Sage have possibilities of a Tax inversion takeover? | mellorscarthwaite |
