NHS crisis helps private healthcare providers

Jeffries has a buy rating and 290p target today

[che7win] 17/1/2018 08:41

Must be some news to provide the turnaround today?

[bountyhunter] 16/1/2018 12:11

maybe an agreed offer would count as a 'change of circumstances'?

it's a bit vague though so my guess is that we have at least a 4 mths wait from here before we may see a revised offer

[samdb] 16/1/2018 11:47

Four more months from now, though there is a provision in the Takeover Code for a new offer to be made if there is a 'change in circumstances'.Not sure what qualifies though.

[bountyhunter] 16/1/2018 09:35

that was my thinking also, not until after 6 months is up following the prior offer rejection though, not checked which date that takes us to

[samdb] 16/1/2018 09:05

They bought because they know another offer will come and this time they'll accept it

[bountyhunter] 16/1/2018 09:04

no problem, watching this one closely post recent director purchases, quite volatile at times

bounty hunter,

thanks... 'confirms previous guidance for its 2017'... oversight on my part

JD2

[bountyhunter] 16/1/2018 08:38

jd - "confirms previous guidance for its 2017 financial year issued on 14 September: it expects to report 2017 full year results as follows:
-- Revenues in the range of GBP929 million to GBP932 million"

nothing vague about that, it's a trading statement stating a narrow range for 2017 revenues in line with previous guidance

[essentialinvestor] 16/1/2018 08:35

As I mentioned recently, very surprised they did not accept the offer.

[jakedog2] 16/1/2018 08:33

1) Am i missing something.... where does it say in line ?

2) Very vague compared to those previously released in Jan

3) Revenue is a miss IMHO v forecast of 944

4) EBITDA is -8% v last Jan TU

[samdb] 16/1/2018 07:54

I think a lot of people were expecting more bad news so quite happy with inline.

[bountyhunter] 16/1/2018 07:48

2017 trading in line with expectations;
results 2 March

[mj19] 15/1/2018 12:25

Tomorrow or Wednesday I contacted them...

[che7win] 13/1/2018 11:15

It's was around 8th Jan last year so it could be anytime.They are also doing a capital markets day Q1, precise date unknown but I know last month they were putting the final touches to that and looking forward to getting their story out there.

[mj19] 13/1/2018 10:31

When is the trading update this month

[che7win] 10/1/2018 09:36

Trending up nicely.

[bountyhunter] 05/1/2018 13:24

well spotted, here's a link to that which also states:

[che7win] 05/1/2018 08:33

[bountyhunter] 03/1/2018 20:10

good point

[che7win] 03/1/2018 18:04

The nationwide operations being postponed surely will force operations into the likes of SPI?
