Bought a few more recently - seems undervalued given recent recovery in the oil market - but spread is a killer

Results today in line with expectations but price down - possibly because some didn't like the outlook that profits this year would be flat. However, on re-reading that carefully they are saying flat after an extra £500,000 investment in R&D implying an extra £500,000 in profits on sales to balance that.

Some recent news of contract wins hxxp://securitymiddleeast.com/2017/12/15/synectics-wins-contracts-offshore-oil-security-saudi-arabia-iran/

Edit: just realised the story was originally published sept 15, so a little less recent than the date on that re-run article

Going by the last few years looks like e can expect a trading update this week, will be interesting to see if some of the contract wins earlier in the year boost the growth numbers or if it's largely the same trajectory ...

I think it's just an illiquid small cap stock. When i took a relatively small opening postion I had to be put through to a dealer to get within quoted spread. Average volume is only 10k.

The narrative within the interims was pretty positive and I can't see any material change in forecast. The company seems to hsve grown nicely in the last few years so I'm happy to tuck these away.

It looks like it could be a buying opportunity, i like the way the company was able to diversify away from oil & gas, but I'm uncomfortable jumping without knowing what caused that big retrace. Its kinda weird, I can't find any news or anything to explain it.

If you find out spooky, let me know

What's going on here?

[dekle] 13/10/2017 07:49

Creeping up all the time. A small trade makes a big impact. Still a long way to go before getting back to previous highs. Wonder if someone like ADT will take an interest?

[tdog1975] 08/9/2017 10:37

Mmmm, should I buy some more ???

[mmc71] 18/8/2017 10:52

The spread is 215-230 but just managed to buy some at 219.95. The quote when selling is 216.05.

Wonder if IC will tip them tomorrow?

Excellent set of results this morning, order book up 28% since Y/E is v positive, I also like they've tripled ROCE so quality metrics are moving strongly in the right direction, this one seems to fly under the radar rather 🤔

nice news story about more business wins lets hope it continues

[livewireplus] 18/11/2016 06:37

I'd suggest it needs to announce some more contract wins before end of this year to provide another leg-up in order to maintain overall upward moves in share price that has taken place in 2016.

[cougar99] 19/8/2016 09:21

... And it does seem to be continuing upwards ... Slowly and silently

[cougar99] 05/8/2016 14:39

.... yes, but seems to have hit a pot hole today .... but long-term upward trend that started late last year I would anticipate continuing .....

Synectics on the road to recovery

[cougar99] 26/7/2016 23:07

mom's the word .... :-)

[cougar99] 26/7/2016 03:09

Well, I was content with the results - share price back to 200p but all quiet on this BB - happy to remain sitting on my holding and await further contract news .... Unfortunately a sign of the times that firms involved with some aspects of security that are good in their field won't be short of business for an indefinite period ....

[tini5] 19/7/2016 09:03

Positive set of results - holding this one long term.

[cougar99] 10/6/2016 13:50

so let's see what 19 July (Interim results day) brings ....

[kemche] 06/6/2016 18:34

All good then...............
