results getting close, if it rises again today it will be the smart money moving back in, watching carefully the next few days.
seems unloved on here but I think it will deliver debt reduction, good cash generation and its still in an expanding market, dividend maintained its a hold under 3.00 easily imho.

[longwell] 24/2/2017 07:59

6 trading days after today until results, this company generates cash is reducing debt and has huge potential yet no one is here. this sector is cash generative and full of merger potential. pe may be high but once debt cleared they can really flex their muscle.

[longwell] 22/2/2017 07:47

moving north now as results near, there has been manipulation here, the question is why?. cash generating and debt reduction make this more and more attractive.

[longwell] 11/2/2017 12:08

personally I would like to see pays and worldpay together so they can grow and make my retirement comfortable, a lot less chance of either bought out on the cheap if merge, would also elevate to ftse 100 I think.

any reasons for the falls. might be a good time to top up some shares. I would believe the people who bought massive shares from Bain would not like it to fall further.

[onjohn] 07/2/2017 18:51

Pays on pe of under 10 vs wpg on 23

the share was placed at 282.75pence to institutional investors, who must believe it is worth more than that. agreed that with the share overhang is gone, the share will be traded properly according to the company performance. Not much downside from here, I believe.

[longwell] 03/2/2017 07:37

this share sell is very important in my eyes, prelude to m&a activity. I have seen this happen with other companies before. not ramping this as long term holder, but the sector is set to be competitive and active for the next few years and worldpay will become less vulnerable the longer they are post float and debt reduces.

Major shareholders, who had overall ownership prior to IPO, have finally bailed out. Which removes a potential overhang to the share market. Previous placing was at 282 pence per share (a similar price) on 7 Sep 16
