Some strange trades today -

9974 shares value £379
3648 151
1186 49
2200 91
992 41

Total shares 18000 ?? Funny how it is an exact figure !

Anyone care to hazard a guess ?

I think some news around another acquisition or even talk of SGD being the target of a takeover would help move us along. I like the current management and the results they have achieved but it's a long road they are travelling on.

needs a wee bit of press to break 4p imo. still an attractive pe when you consider growth prospects. time to start ramping anyone?

[golden cross] 23/2/2006 19:52

6p sounds better..............7p...........

[omalaha] 23/2/2006 08:38

you get the feeling that if it could just break that 4p resistance we may taste the rarefied air of 5p..........Hhhmmmmmmm 5p!

[golden cross] 20/2/2006 19:05

It's only £9k's worth!!!

[christh] 20/2/2006 16:57

Is it a big contract win coming out this week?

OR

Is there a bid coming out for them?

I am long term holder from 2p and would love to see this takeoff. Its periodically tipped but the volume is just not there to generate a decent market yet. All news to date has been positive but I think Sectorguard need to be more aggressive in terms of growth or they may get swallowed up by a larger company without anybody really taking much notice. IMHO

[omalaha] 17/2/2006 10:08

now, i wonder if that rns might attract a wee bit of positive press, this was tipped by one of the share rags last year and i do'nt think the rec was ever updated. p/e looks v.reasonable considering possible growth opps for SGD.

[swwikmi] 17/2/2006 09:53

dont miss the boat for a fraction of 1P

[skyship] 16/2/2006 18:40

Been trying to top-up with a cheap offer for the past three trading days - cheapest I could get on-line was 3.72p, in spite of those stale sales in the 3.25p-3.35p range.

Sales of that type are MM cannon fodder - they won't pass on a cheap offer as they know the sales are ex-portfolio from solictors and the like.

Oh well, pleased at the rise all the same.....

Its a bold statement to say all their officers have licenses.

Whilst I would not dream of saying he is wrong, any licences that were applied for after Christmas of last year are probably not yet issued.

Does this mean they have not taken on any un licenced staff since then.

SectorGuard PLC

SectorGuard Plc / Ticker: SGD / Index: AIM / Sector: Support Services

16 February 2006

SectorGuard Plc ('SectorGuard' or 'the Company')

AGM Statement


SectorGuard Plc, the AIM listed total security solutions group, held its Annual
General Meeting today and all resolutions were duly passed. At the meeting,
Chairman David Marks said:


'We have made considerable progress in the year and I believe that we now have
the correct foundation, structure and business model to become a leading total
security solutions provider. We have been expanding both the geographical spread
of the business and range of products and services which we will continue to do.


'Growth remains steady, achieved through both acquisitions, of which we
completed four last year, and organically, where we have won new business in key
target areas. To reflect this performance and growth, shareholders were
rewarded for their support, announced at the time of our results in December, by
the doubling of the dividend to 0.1p per share.


'Going forward I believe that we are ideally placed to expand our market share.
Importantly, the 20th March 2006 deadline for the compulsory licensing of
security officers under the Security Industry Authority (SIA) is drawing near
and SectorGuard is in the happy position of having already obtained licenses for
all its security officers. This will provide us with the opportunity to pitch
for significant new contracts from those security companies which have not yet
achieved this status.'

Well someone could not wait any longer and bought a stunning £250 worth.

[marvelman] 14/2/2006 11:23

Amazing that such small values of sells can influence the price so dramatically.I wonder if the same values of buys might do the same for the opposite direction.Dont think so somehow but next drop on the offer and it becomes too good to leave without buying a few.

[swwikmi] 09/2/2006 20:49

quality aquisitions, successfull integration and steady progress in overall profit and dividends are the way to go. - the company is following these principles so far - to follow is instutional investment and a steady move north in the share price

[oldgeezer] 09/2/2006 15:22

I think being an AIM listed company we just have to be patient with this one, but i do feel it has a lot of growth potential. Of course aquisitions cost money but the company needs to grow and hopefully in time generate larger profits as it does so.
There have at least been many opportunities to buy in, and they are not exactly overpriced in my opinion around the 4p mark.I believe some people thought at one time they could make a quick buck on this but its going to take time to grow.
Lets hope for some more news.

[ponty] 09/2/2006 12:20

i had the same thought when i read it this morning, this would put us on the map sgd very quiet at the moment

>
Rentokil to sell its security arm

Rentokil is restructuring its business
Business services group Rentokil Initial has revealed plans to sell off its security division.
It is the latest move in its ongoing restructuring work, and comes two weeks after the firm said it was closing its loss-making workwear and linen units.

In a brief statement, Rentokil called its Manned Guarding arm a "high-quality business". The unit offers security, CCTV operations and mobile patrols.

Rival security firms and private equity groups are believed to be interested.

Could SGD be interested i wonder, they like aquisitions.

[blackfox] 07/2/2006 19:31

Swwikmi I don't think it will take that long.

[swwikmi] 07/2/2006 19:24

in the next few months I expect the penny will drop and the institutions will get in on the act - a 25% or more is on the cards

[ponty] 07/2/2006 10:42

The best small stock i hold by a long way, our day will come.

[omalaha] 07/2/2006 10:22

At some point this little doggie will have it's day: it will have to be funds buying, as it just does'nt appeal enough to the small PI. You could have a portfolio of little AIM gems like this and not make a bean. Maybe they should announce a major gas discovery under head office (there are plenty fool enough to buy it).

[ucorksuckers] 04/2/2006 12:25

At least I've got £200 dididend to come on the 24th. Another 50 years and I'll be home free with these little gems.
