Added another 10k, towards the end of the day, but haven't yet found a record of it in today's trade archive.
I was surprised to see a larger trade of 125,773 at 39.75 |
The last market price based chart has a bowl which confirms as valid on eod close above 38.8, target is approx 48 |

None to buy on auto-quote, have to use order. |
Continuing to edge up on small volumes. Perhaps not much stock around. |
My chart suggesting possible further share price rises here tomorrow |
Nice to see it edging up again. |
My chart suggesting possible news here tomorrow. |
Nice bit of volume so far this morning.
45,500 top price 35 |
Certainly not much stock around - ticking up on just a £3k buy. |
It will be interesting to see what the plan is for the company |
Nothing wrong with a little speculation.
Anyone any ideas? |
I presume a little mention somewhere |
They never even got to deliver an initiation note! Obviously the new man has his own plans and direction and another ex Scapa appointment to the board is interesting! |
LIBC didn't last long! |

SysGroup plc
("SysGroup" or the "Group")
Director / PDMR dealing
SysGroup plc (AIM:SYS), the multi award-winning managed IT services, cyber security and cloud hosting provider, announces that Heejae Chae, Executive Chairman, on 4 August 2023 acquired 150,000 ordinary Shares in the Group at a price of 28.5p. As a result, Heejae Chae is interested in 14.2% of the Group. |
In my opinion there has been an opportunity missed by the incoming Chairman, post appointment he could have announced his strategy. He's had long enough to come up with one and has bought in for a reason.
Thats one missing piece, the other is a CEO highly experienced in the sector has gone, with that position now vacant and the new Exec Chair I assume performing that role but with no prior experience of the sector.
Its a steep learning curve and the question is how much value leakage is there going to be from a ruderless ship until it finds land? (or is rescued)
He's not going to get a placing away without significant dilution for us retail holders. He's going to have a lot on his plate with the steep learning curve. Or maybe he's just bought his shares on margin with the intention of flipping it at a premium? Who knows. I'm out. |
If the new man can now obtain real scalability both organic as well as by aquisition then agree SYS could be a multi bagger |
Well they've got Liberum on board, I'm told that won't change. Secondly, given how the new man transformed Scapa I'm pretty upbeat. Sys has already navigated a tough climate well enough, so we could see a really good return in the medium-longer term. |
I'm looking forward to seeing what the new man can bring. It's not easy out there at the moment for smaller companies....but perhaps that brings opportunity. I just hope they find a broker that looks after them! |
No initiation note yet from Liberum as they will be meeting with the new man regarding strategy etc. I'm also in the process of getting something set up with him in due course.Potentially exciting times at Sys, as it moves on to the next chapter! |
Indeed, and there's also the deferred acquisition consideration to pay over the next couple of years (assuming Truststream achieves its EBITDA targets). But these are minor considerations set against the good progress the business has made and appears to be continuing.
Nice summary on Techmarketview this morning:
"Monday 26 June 2023
SysGroup CEO departs on a positive note
sysgroupFollowing a rather painful FY22 where revenue was impacted by the pandemic, SysGroup has turned in a good set of FY23 results. The top line leapt 47% to £21.6m with adjust EBITDA up from £2.82m to £3.33m.
Managed Services were c.80% of revenue but accounted for a reduced share of the total with the resale stream more than doubling to £4.2m. This change in mix has pushed down the gross margin.
The revenue line was buoyed significantly by acquisitions made in the first half – that of Truststream Security Solutions Ltd and Orchard Computer Ltd. The former provides professional and managed cyber security services, with clients in both the private and public sectors. Orchard is a managed services provider and brings a diverse client base. Acquisitions aside, organic growth was a reasonable 6%.
Last month, CEO Adam Binks announced he would step down following the release of the full year results. He has been at the helm for nine years, taking revenue from c.£8m to more than £20m. Heejae Chae joins the Board as Executive Chairman and will take day-to-day responsibility for the running of the Company.
FY23 saw SysGroup put some growth foundations in place with the acquisitions, and the first two months of the new year have been “in line with the Board’s expectations”. FY24 therefore represents something of a new chapter in more ways than one." |
