I have to say that I'm amazed they've offered 6p, thus valuing the enterprise at circa £26mln, as that's not the sort of lowball EBITDA multiple you'd expect in the current climate.

The fact that they've managed to get the full offer details out with the results today would suggest that discussions have been going for rather longer than yesterday's announcement seemed to imply. Good old Chinese walls...

Well done, chaps(except to those who've ramped it for three years at every price all the way down from 10p, eh Knowing?).

LOL!

fyi, a 4 bagger is a realised profit of 4 times your initial stake.

Not a share trading at a 1/4 of your purchase price.

Hi Knowing, who could that be I wonder?

What a great day for tpa, I was wondering at work today whether a bid could be a possibility as we had a steep rise after the trading update which although was encouraging was not that brilliant.

As I bought in early at 1.2p, 1.38p and 1.82p I've taken the advantage of the earlier than expected profit. Mine was the 90000 @ 3.877 which gave me the original investment + 25%.

I kept another 106000 going which is pure profit now.

FWIW, apart from around 5 months in mid 2007 and a couple of brief peaks in 2006, TPA has spent most of the last two and a half years under 4p without a buyer appearing, so it would appear that the recent sub 2p lows are what interested a potential bidder. Therefore, chasing this up could be dangerous(unless you are feeling particularly lucky).....

P.S. Amusing to note the circa 50% decline soon after Knowing first bought in just after the mid 2005 profit warning.

anybody hazard a guess at what price for possible offer ?
Posted at 16/4/2008 07:57 by dell314
I wonder how serious this expression of interest is?

With net debt of £13.6mln, the company would cost over £22mln to buy at current preopen price of 4.25p.

Unless there are synergies, or asset disposal potential, you have to wonder if a potential buyer that was interested at circa 1.5p would still be interested at this level....

Well share price is reponding positively to the news.

If there was something fundamentally wrong with TPA they would have had to issue an RNS stating the problems. Since the drop no RNS has been issued. What has been seen was a large sell followed buy what looked to be a large buy.However the large sell dropped the price and worried PIs also sold dropping the price to where it is today.

After what looked like a 6M buy we can calculate that there was circa 2.5M plus any PI trades left over. The limit on Friday was 150K on the offer.Tonight it is down to 50K.

Was the drop purely down to a forced seller? Someone taking a tax loss before the year end?

I say again there is no news from the company to say that anything is fundamentally wrong.

The cliff-like share price may have something to do with 8.5m shares traded at 0.5p early on 29 Jan but this is about 4% of issued share cap so there should be an RNS on this by now.

the only implicit good news is that TPA got through 31 December and managed to pay the next instalment of debt and interest on time but I don't think that the Directors got many Christmas cards from their suppliers. The vacancy adverts can either mean that new business growth is spectacular and more staff are needed - or - existing staff are leaving in droves.

But at a mkt cap of £2m it is tempting to stick a small toe in the water. IMHO HSBC can't afford to let this one sink.

Cheap TripleArc eyes recovery
Print management specialist TripleArc was something of a Growth Company Investor favourite until a profit warning last July sent the shares tumbling from highs of around 23p to below 4p, giving TripleArc a meagre valuation of £7.8 million.

However, the reason for the warning was the poor performance of the direct mail division of its £640,000 million acquisition Stream. This difficult asset has now been sold (it was offloaded for £1), and the attendant cancellation of an earn-out payment eliminated £900,000 of liabilities from the balance sheet.

The other good news is that the group made enough cash to pay down £500,000 worth of debt. With the remaining business now streamlined and looking likely to thrive, house broker Altium Securities expects £500,000 adjusted profit before tax for the year to December 2005 leading to 0.2p of earnings.

But 2006 is where the difference will be seen: £3.2 million of profits are forecast, with earnings of 1.2p producing a miniscule p/e ratio of 3.1 times. Very cheap indeed. Buy.

So if the trading statement did not say they would not meet revenue targets then is this going to be a super winner for anyone buying at this level ? Altium has a 10p price target and if those figures are met then we should see a significant re-rating to the TPA share price.
