LONDON--Bovis Homes Group PLC (BVS.LN) Monday posted a 69% higher full-year pretax profit and reported "robust trading" in 2015 so far.
Profit before tax rose to GBP133.5 million from GBP78.8 million as sales climbed 46% to GBP809.4 million, driven by a 29% increase in completed sales to 3,635 at an average selling price 11% higher at GBP216,600.
"The strong sales position brought forward from 2014 combined with robust trading in the first seven weeks of 2015 has positioned the group well for 2015," the company said.
"With the expectation of further growth in active sales outlets during 2015 driven by the land acquisitions achieved in 2014, the group is confident that it can deliver its expected legal completion growth in 2015," it added.

Agree. A 69% rise in profits by BVS is very impressive and should have a positive impact on builders this week. Expect to see a healthy rise this week with TW. I think £2.00 may come up quicker than most think.

Fab results at BVS today and am expecting the same here next week. I really see this passing 160p by next week and 200p plus by year end.

That's what happens when you try to call a change in trend instead of waiting for the trend to change and giving up a little potential profit. Let the trend be your friend. gl

It's actually a 7 year high Doyden.

I'm over 8% up on my TW holding and hoping for a continued climb into the results.

[aspers] 20/2/2015 17:50

I expect to see 160 on results day, I also expect BVS to hit £10 on Mondays news. An interesting news article on BBC news last night about the housing shortage in the country.......I've given up trying to trade this as every time I sell it continues to rise. I'm now fully invested again and look forward to seeing 200p in the not too distant future. House builders will continue to report booming profits for a year or so yet! Good luck to all that hold.....and that's the important word here......HOLD.

Eastbourne, like you I expected a pullback and made a school boy error by selling out at 139.80 (I have no position here at present). With the results looming 150 plus has to be only days away now. I doubt if we will see 140 again anytime soon and if I was you I would consider closing your short pretty rapidly!

[homeboy35] 20/2/2015 17:13

Sorry, but you wouldn't listen!

[eastbourne1982] 20/2/2015 17:02

Sitting on a loss, hopefully this will make your weekend !!

[homeboy35] 20/2/2015 16:57

Yep, new high!

How's your shorty bet, Eastborne?

[doyden] 20/2/2015 16:08

Looks like we could close with a new 52 week high.Onwards and upwards.

No crash, straight through 7000, next week.House builders also strong next week.

[hillbrown] 18/2/2015 10:42

Agree with that gbh.. I will not be selling any shares and if they continue up in the short term I will benefit but this morning I did sell the footsie at 6911 at £50 a point to give some comfort if it does do a mini crash (temporarily) by maybe a 100 or so.

Good trading update from GFRD today:

"Linden Homes' sales rate has increased since 1 January 2015. Housing market conditions remain good and we are optimistic about the prospects for a number of recent and forthcoming sales outlets. Our Partnerships business continues to see exceptional demand for contracting in the affordable housing market and the development business is growing in line with plan. "

New highs being hit today.

The DOW will be looking for an excuse to fall at least 200-300 points in the near future which will lead to an inevitable drop in the FTSE, imo we could do with that event happening now rather than around the beginning of March!

[cockneyrebel] 17/2/2015 12:45

GFRD interims tomorrow.

Next week - BVS Mon, PSN Tues, BDEV Weds.

Should light the sector up imo.

I bought at 4p and was happy with my profit when I sold at 12p.........doh, if only in hindsight!!

[battue2] 16/2/2015 16:21

homeboy, it went as low as 4p before debt was sorted, I know I held through it all and am now rather pleased I did .gl

[homeboy35] 16/2/2015 12:02

that was 525p in old money!

It did go as low as 8p in its present form, though!

[cockneyrebel] 16/2/2015 11:03
