You don't think they'll be impacted by the increased China tariffs? Not sure the Facilisgoup customer base will be big enough to source elsewhere? |
A bit of volume over the last couple of days, for the first time since the statement. The shares are much too cheap IMO. |
 Tell you what Spooky, that was a damn good effort at clearing sellers. We all know how much they rule the roost, but exchanges finished just shy of 7m! They were flying in there to buy.
As per most of the market, that could have been dribs and drabs - absolutely nothing, but they came in and gave it a good bash so fair play.
The odd thing is you still sit there and just know that the release isn't going to happen yet. They mopped up notable blocks at 45.5p, 46.5p, 47p. Berenberg were on the offer and then someone came in and took three 250k blocks to get them moving abit.
Berenberg are a notorious pain in the bee-hind to get moving.
Yes, you Berenberg....ya big pain in the beeeeeeee-hind. I see you!
But yeah, there are still some monster sell orders in the market (someone has picked up 118k @48p today and the price hasn't even batted an eyelid) so its a hold at worse, waiting to see if some whoppers go through to allow that release over 50p.
I don't know who is making moves here:
No holding rns of late but there are some right ole names in there.
Barring some big clear out, the market seems content to just sit at these levels.
You do wonder if this keeps happening, whether takeovers just keep coming and picking off the cheap companies over here at low ball premiums.
Let's keep a watch.
How about some bangers?
Bangers to smash the sellers!
Bangers and Smash!
How long before that starts winding people up ha

10:46 Oh actually, I think it is best to wait for the updates with these sorts of companies. I watched it have big exchanges a short while back, but couldn't consider a buy as the concern was too great on there being a profit warning.
So at least now there is a window of opportunity to trade (if a move does eventually happen) before the next update. So similar to VLG and HVO, where the doubt is there on how the trading is going. Had a go, and exited if doesn't follow through with a price spike or CARD where you knew the update had happened but the market didn't follow through on the buying
But there we go...the usual tah pence worth |
The shares look far too cheap to me. Just over 4 times EBITDA, cash generative, net cash,3%+ dividend yield, buying back shares. Facilisgroup probably worth most of the market cap by itself. There has been an active seller, perhaps todays volume has taken him out. Suspected he was bigger. |
Taken a few PEBB to see if this has been overdone on the downside. There is an argument to say the market was expecting worse here and those numbers have surprised.
Only about 4% growth forecast on the top line and 8% on pre-tax profit, so it is chugging along, but cash better than expected. An ex-cash profit multiple of 5.7 falling to 5 this year.
A multiple like that of 5 and you still sit here and wonder if that has priced in all the gloom. But it looks worth an effort.
Price is currently flat at 44p-46p.
The price was flat before this update so you'd think it just stays flat if there is no enthusiasm to buy.
It needs to break 46p for the possibility of a trading bounce.
An exit if it goes stale.
Will the market buy to allow a breakout?
Oooer gavnar!

Well the share buy back has kept the share price from falling .uch below near to its 52 week low. It's hard to see where PEBB goes from here. Hope a PE buyer makes a bid. |
The share buy back is not really helping maintain the share price and it looks like the market has no appetite for PEBB or it's outlook. |
The poor Chairman seems to have been picked for the chop as major shareholders must be unhappy at the share price and lack lustre numbers from the Facilus part of PEBB |

Good to see the market ignoring the fact that Facilus was the growth part of PEBB which has stumbled. |
Lol seangwhite you were bullish on these all the way down, then turned bearish at the bottom. The more you talk the better the share price. |
Facilus results are very disappointing for the driver of PEBB's growth and do not bode well for the PEBB share price looking a year or two ahead. The share buy back does seem a bit like a fairly desperate throw of the dice by the CEO and his team. |
No suprises since their Mid Jan update. Increased dividend though by 100% |

PEBB seem to be in a downward trend and the business model has no real traction unlike FOUR it's peer. The CEO really needs to come up with plan B fairly quick if he wants to keep being so well rewarded. |
Maybe time to start buying IMO |
Looks like PEBB has further to drop after the way ALT went down today. |
If group revenue expectation for year was £140m but now £124m, the difference is that Brand Addition has been hit by a £15m reduction in second half expectations from £65m down to £51m. Will there be a recovery in 2024 from their Technology and Consumer clients?
Pebble has always seemed to me (and the market) as a high quality stock so it is a shock that BA has taken this second half hit especially after the 5th Sep H1 results when the group expected to be "in line with market expectations" and BA growth was "underpinned by its diverse and loyal client base with investments into ESG and global capabilities further differentiating the business with its target market."
I don't want to sell but PEBB must suffer a derating after disappointing the market. Quality companies shouldn't do this. |
Seems like the recent good write up the CEO got doesn't sit well with this update raising doubts on the previously upbeat business growth picture. |
Trading Update
Whilst we expect Facilisgroup to achieve revenue growth in the year, order intake at Brand Addition has been lower than anticipated and Group revenues for FY 23 are expected to be approximately £124m (FY 22: £134.0m). As the Group has continued to generate stronger gross margins in FY 23 compared to the prior year, the impact of the revenue reduction is expected to be partially mitigated, and deliver Group EBITDA of approximately £16m (FY 22: £18.0m), maintaining Group EBITDA margins close to FY 22.
A 27% drop in share price? |
Good write up for our CEO and may help stop the decline in the share price |
