Probably John Rigg will buy the whole lot. Probably a very good buying opportunity.

John Rigg (chairman) already owns 29% of the company. Is there a possibility he could be looking at these shares as part of a bid for the whole company?

Stepped out of #TRD today until the dust settles around the Mira Makar shares. This is a volatile stock at the best of times and I decided to protect profits. I will no doubt be back when there is more certainty. GLA.

spooky - it says so in the Holdings RNS down because of a potential overhang of shares, as mcfly suggests? with Finals not until June there is a potential opportunity ahead if the weakness continues imo

[s25ava] 28/4/2017 11:28

Why the drop? Tree shaking?

[spooky] 28/4/2017 11:14

You are right, i have confirmed it.

[spooky] 28/4/2017 11:02

Mcfly do you KNOW he is the trustee? Saves me making a call to confirm.

My reading of today's Holdings announcements is that the previous shareholder (Mira Makar - former CEO until 2005) is going through bankruptcy and that Paul Atkinson (as trustee in the bankruptcy) now controls the shares. A small amount of these shares have been sold. Please let me know if you disagree. The question is what is the intention for the remaining shares. I would hope that the company will be able to work with Paul Atkinson to find a home for the shares if the intention is to sell more or all of them. I don't believe that the company will need to go to the market for financing and therefore any short term share price movements shouldn't impact the strong current trading. I have recently taken a small position here and will be watching closely. I would certainly like the opportunity to add to my holding if the share price falls.

(election fraud charges relate to searches done using Triad Software at Election commission) From Guardian: 41m ago 15:57 Sturgeon claims May called early election partly because she is worried about Tories facing election fraud charges from 2015 Sturgeon claims that one of the reasons why Theresa May called a snap election was her fear that Tories would be charged in relation to alleged election fraud in 2015.

"IF" IF Triad decided to give a dividend each year of about £1M (that appears to be about the profit level we're at) then (if that equated to 5% interest) the share price would need to rise about 70% (otherwise the dividend payout would be nearer 10%). However I expect most IT companies that pay dividends probably give 1% at best - imagine what price that would equate to? But lets keep it real as we can. Based on potential dividend we could theoretically be trading at £1.40 come June (results time) and that is if they have won no new contracts (but if one assumes they have landed one or two new contracts then that would be a whole new ball game - £2 a share).

cfro: Any heavy use of "electorial commission" software is good for Triad. Put in your constituency and see whos paid for what and if anything looks dodgy: Electoral Commission

One assumes the announcement of 'yet' another General Election will equate to more business for TRD?

Re "electorial commission" - it does not mention Triad Software, but the story has now reached the Daily Mirror: hTtp://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/dennis-skinner-blasts-theresa-mays-10254841#ICID=sharebar_twitter

Hi Wilmdav (good job mate - like what you did!): Its worth pointing out that in JUNE the "criminal proceedings" results on the TWENTY TORY MPs will be known - will there be any criminal prosecutions? It was Triad who did the electorial commission search engine software... Whatever happens this could be the Torys HILLARY CLINTON moment!

Their web site is not very impressive but the case studies suggest they have a good relationship with the UK government. My uninformed impression is of a good IT company that has grown mainly by recommendations by word of mouth. However:- "The Board is currently focused on implementing its strategy to further strengthen the business and share price. This includes increasing our investment in marketing activities . . . . . ."
