Congrats to all holders, congrats to anyone who bought in after the company entered the regulatory phase. LSE investors are morons who can look a gift horse in the mouth. Aside from anything the H1 results and prognosis were a good enough reason to take a holding.

Government Petition to Ban shorting of London AIM stocks.

The AIM stock market is where smaller companies list their shares rather than using the prohibitively expensive main London Stock Market. This is an important market for the growth of smaller UK companies.

In challenging times, shorters seek to borrow the company's shares from a holder for a consideration and to buy them at a later date. They immediately sell these shares which, due to the relative illiquid market, sends the price much lower and hence the shorters can buy them at that lower price - pocketing the difference. The only beneficiaries are the shorters and the market makers with the losers being the reputable company and it's bona fide investors.

From the Telegraph's tips for 2008, dated 28 Dec:


Ultra Electronics' defence technology has made it a minor jewel in Britain's high-end manufacturing base. It is a world leader in anti-submarine warfare, for example, and has kit on projects such as Eurofighter.

In all, the company has 21 niche businesses in 104 markets - and Ultra is either number one or two in all of them. No one product or programme accounts for more than 5pc of revenues, cushioning the company against delays in programmes or when - inevitably - some defence projects go sour.

Not surprisingly, Ultra's shares have carried a premium and the company is frequently touted as a bid target (though if it were ever taken over it would destroy Ultra's unique position as independent supplier to the defence majors).

But the shares have come off recently. On a price-earnings ratio to 2008 of 16.2 times, the shares are at the lower end of their trading range. Given that stock markets in 2008 will be unpredictable, investors will want quality and assurance.

Ultra may not be the FTSE's brightest star for 2008, but at £13.05 it is in a great position to outperform the market at the very least.

Robert Cole ('Tempus') in The Times this morning:


Ultra Electronics

FOR MOST of its ten-year existence as a public company, Ultra Electronics has struggled to attract attention. Regular readers of this column will know the company and if shares were bought in line with the recommendations made, they will have made some tidy profits. Since every £100 investment made at flotation in 1996 has turned into £500, few long-term investors will forget about the company. But Ultra's public profile was boosted no end when QinetiQ, the defence equipment company, started knocking on investors' doors.
Ultra and Qinetiq are hardly identical twins, but there is more than a passing resemblance. They are both defence equipment suppliers and technology plays an important part in the kit they produce. It was, therefore, sensible to compare Ultra and QinetiQ for purposes of valuing shares in the latter company. What was not sensible was to assume that the shares in the two companies should sit at similar ratings.

Ultra has worked hard to demonstrate that it can deliver handsome earnings and dividend growth over an extended period. There was more of the same yesterday as Ultra posted full-year results. QinetiQ may be a much-improved company, but it is surely impossible to suggest that it has a proven track record like Ultra's.

For Ultra shareholders, this might not matter if it could be assumed that comparison between the two will come to an end. And it will not matter if QinetiQ delivers flawlessly from here on. But if QinetiQ does slip up, and it might, there is a risk that Ultra shares will suffer because it is assumed it is similar and will be hit by similar problems.

The record, underlined by yesterday's figures, suggests it is unlikely that Ultra will disappoint on its own account. It was especially gratifying to see the 27 per cent rise in the value of the forward order book. That suggests that further dividend increases in the order of the 15 per cent seen yesterday, may come. Ultra shares, which give a dividend yield of 1.7 per cent, are dear. But investors should assume that the underlying quality of the company will shine through in the long run. Buy.
