Posted at 27/6/2019 21:37 by cravencottage Essential Investor..In answer to your statement - I'm convinced at some stage SDL will be bid for as the barrier to entry in translation software co's is off the richter scale.. Meanwhile they are returning to the arena of being " A growth Co" coupled with an increasing divi ( which always appeals to institutions such as Schroders etc) Also I note directors' have picked up shares at prices higher than current levels which imo bodes extremely well.. The cherry on the cake being the latest broker note targets 650p.. I think it's fair to say the share price at current levels is considerably off the mark.. No doubt we'll see some turbulence along the way but with results due in early August I think it's fair to say the SP's behind the curve. |
Posted at 08/8/2017 19:25 by hedley2 Severely punished for the interim results with a lot of investors/punters abandoning ship. As always the drop in the share price seems over done and will be a lesson for the board. New man has always said it's a 3yr plan so happy to give him a chance, but have to admit the £2 a share drop hurts! |

Posted at 17/12/2013 08:46 by iandippie There was a trading update on 17th Jan this year. It's no coincidence then that his wife and daugther have bought shares just before the director dealing cut off before a potential trading update in mid Jan next month. Lancaster must be expecting a good update...imho.I would love it if the FD bought a chunk of shares today too! |

Posted at 18/6/2013 20:47 by she-ra hazydays - analysts always say that.Theyve said it after every profit warning.It always seem to help the big boys exit at a decent price when rumours or brokers suggest a takeover with private investor lemmings helping them do so. If you see the words, "bid alert" or "the for sale sign has been raised" written by a journalist you know its got further to fall |

Posted at 02/3/2010 17:53 by johnroger IndependentInvestment Column: SDL shares are a winner in any language Edited by Alistair Dawber Tuesday, 2 March 2010 Our view: Buy Share price: 463p (+9p) Extraordinaire! Sehr gut! Excelente! Mumtaz! Whichever language you choose, yesterday's full-year results from the translation software group SDL were pretty impressive. The company said that pre-tax profits jumped by 21 per cent to a touch over £24m, helped by contracts with a host of new customers, including Continental Airlines and the UN. For investors, news that a dividend is on its way, albeit giving a yield of just 1 per cent, should be cheered, as should the chief executive Mark Lancaster's assessment that he is "bullish" about the year ahead. What was perhaps not communicated quite so well by the group was that 2009 revenues fell by 8 per cent, on a constant currency basis. Nonetheless, there was plenty of good news and plenty of support among the analysts who advised investors to form an orderly queue to buy the stock. Those at Piper Jaffray argued that "SDL's Global Information Management vision continues to gather momentum and these strong 2009 results are an early sign that SDL will, as expected, be a key beneficiary of an improving macro environment. We retain our overweight rating, and deferred cashflow-based target of 505p ... The confirmation of a first dividend for 2010 is another positive for the stock." Whether investors speak Japanese or double-Dutch, there are few reasons not to buy the shares. The stock has put on an impressive 57 per cent in the last 12 months, and even though yesterday's feeble gains indicate that much of the good news is already priced into the shares, we would expect a jump from the stock in the coming months as conditions improve. There seem to be few risks beyond the macroeconomic climate, which can affect any company. Buy. |

Posted at 28/4/2009 13:21 by johnroger Independent viewSDL Our view: Buy Share price: 335p (+4.5p) It cannot have taken too much time to translate SDL's brief and to-the-point trading statement yesterday. That the group did not go into great detail should not overly concern investors, however, as it did say that the group expects to beat market expectations on revenue and operating profits. Those holding shares in the group that provides translation software to clients in North America, Europe and the Middle East have enjoyed a good year, with the stock in positive territory over the past 12 months. The chief executive, Mark Lancaster, says he is ecstatic with the company's performance during the recession and trading is better than expected. For investors, the business model is defensive, he says, arguing that the clients rarely leave foreign territories and always need translation services. The other good news is that on 11.6 times 2009 earnings, the stock is hardly trading at pricey levels. Buyers may baulk, however, at the news that there are no plans to pay a dividend. Mr Lancaster says the board prefers to keep the balance sheet in good shape and keep back a war chest for acquisitions. Investors should certainly be backing those that show resilience in these dangerous times and, while we think it is time that buyers saw some cash from SDL by way of a dividend, we conclude that the strong performance of the stock justifies a punt. Buy. |
