I might be if I see the directors buy (sensible amounts) but if their not interested I am not interested.

copyright - exactly right IMO, but as willsy50 says, many bids are coming in very low in this sector. CTO have previously said that they won't bid low on work, so it will be interesting to see where they end up. Very likely that we hear more cautious words from them as there is little to be happy about in the sector at present, but I did hear something last week about an improvement in construction generally.

Some idiots on this board who are nursing heavy losses and post total rubbish, so good to see some decent comment.

full year 2011 results announced Tuesday 20th March 2012.

don't expect any good news or bad news.

order book and dividend amount will be interesting to hear.

40p seems to be a bit of a support level.

any sniff of good news could send the share price soaring.

let's hope for the unexpected, fall from 150 to this level with no real bounce is a bit undeserved.

all down to weak management and lack of news and poor and badly timed and overpriced acquisitions of late. let's see how they are performing.

Not a deramp, but the whole M&E sector is struggling at the moment.
My employer MJN Colston one of the top eight contractors went into administration last week.
One hopeful indicator however is that the number of tenders have increased, and the consultants are busy.
The only problem is that clients have got so used suicide bidding, that even when jobs come in under budget, they think they're paying too much.

CR, where did you get the 3p from?

[cockneyrebel] 14/2/2012 21:05

Chart turning up her eby the look of it, imo.

3p divi forecast and a fwd PE of less than 6 all looks rather cheap imo, seeing they have said they'll be inline at the last trading update.

All imo/dyor etc.

[hvs] 10/2/2012 11:44

Keep watchin while me keeps on accumlating.

I've just been looking at today's profit warning from Interior Services (ISG) - they're not in electrical work but do work at a similar stage in building construction (fitout, etc) - they are talking about margin problems and surely the same problems must affect Clarke.
I had been wondering whether we had reached a bottom in the share price when it went below 40p, but after the management statement here which carefully avoided mention of margins, I think the likely way for the shares to go is further down.
Perhaps in 6 months or a year's time.....?

[hvs] 15/1/2012 19:22

lol !!!!!!!

Let them enjoy their PENSIONS.

[pugugly] 15/1/2012 17:01

Pension scheme still in significant deficit - With fall in stock market and decrease in gilt yields deficit has probably (imo) increased significantly since last report.

remember pensioners are living longer - The pensioners are likely to be a drag on the share price for the foreseeable future.

[goliard] 14/1/2012 13:23

hvs, not sure what was funny there can you explain? Your posts contain what I can only call a 'childlike quality' and nothing you say ever seems to make sense to me.

[bench2] 14/1/2012 12:01

Agree with 918 and 920 , for all we know new biz could be acq at a loss to keep the qualified electricians employed , we are a far cry from 6% op margins .

[hvs] 13/1/2012 19:07

lol !!!!

We has another member wanting to run this company.

[goliard] 13/1/2012 16:42

Same as I posted in November after the update. No detail on margins or profitability. Poor RNS and the rise is not justified without more detail. Why can't the board see this as the waste of time that it clearly is if they don't provide a more thorough update?

[huttonr] 13/1/2012 09:20

As you say, CWA1, a bit light on detail - its good that the order book has held up but I'm concerned about the margin being achieved.

[hvs] 12/1/2012 18:58

No worries £ 15 mill is just very very silly.
