business growing organically, full effects of most recent acquisition will be seen this year and more acquisitions to come.

All IMHO.

Managed to buy some on the pullback.They are likely to have a great year.Trading in December was significantly ahead of expectations.

Positive write up from Zeus this morning.

Great statement and with all the additional Brexit related activity 2021 should deliver more strong growth in 2021. Decent cash holding too.

Market clearly likes it!

November: "Adjusted profit before tax of at least GBP6.0 million"

Two months later: "adjusted profit before tax of approximately GBP7.2 million"

Market is behind on the upgrade cycle as per many of the others.

All imo

Actually, the H1 profit after tax of £200k made up of £550k attributable to minority interests and a loss of £350k for shareholders!

So it actually made a loss in H1, compared to the adjusted profit of £2.1m reported.

Good update but the company looks fully valued.


The company makes a lot of adjustments to get to the adjusted profit. Last year the adjusted profit before tax was £5.2m but the statutory profit before tax was £2.2m and the profit after tax was only £1.3m.


Likewise the H1 2020 results had adjusted profit before tax of £2.1m but statutory profit after tax was only £200k!


The headline adjusted profit before tax of £7.2m announced today may therefore translate to a statutory profit after tax of around £3m. That’s a PE ratio of about 17. Fairly high for a transport company.


The shares have recovered well from the lows this year but I think the easy money has already been made.

Agree a very solid update this morning.Xpediator (AIM: XPD), a leading provider of freight management services across the UK and Central and Eastern Europe, is pleased to confirm the Group expects to deliver profits for the year ended 31 December 2020, significantly ahead of market expectations. Following higher than anticipated demand for its services in the UK and Europe during November and throughout December 2020, the Group now expects to report adjusted profit before tax of approximately GBP7.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2020, a 40% increase over the prior year (2019: GBP5.15 million).

Plenty in that trading update to support a push past 40p. Current momentum seems particularly strong with Nov & Dec significantly ahead of budget.

[haroldthegreat] 20/1/2021 07:58

No doubt the larger share purchases earlier were by people who knew zeus were putting out a buy note . That explains the recent rise .

[mfhmfh] 19/1/2021 16:11

great to have such an experienced CFO join the company.

[crispfin] 19/1/2021 15:07

The new FD looks like a good hire. Strong relevant background and good sector experience.

Gives some much needed additional bandwidth in the senior team.

Between the recent disposal and the extended team, hopefully gives a decent base to grow off.

[techno20] 19/1/2021 13:11

Looking strong. Positive note out today from Zeus Capital. One of their top tips for 2021.

[sphere25] 14/1/2021 16:45

Doesn't look like it.

Someone prominent has probably suggested it on some social media or chat group site. Usually the case nowadays when there is a stream of buys, particularly in a very quiet share like this - sticks out like a sore thumb.

No idea who though, rarely look in on there. Too many flashing lights on social media - hurts the ole eyes :-)

Anywho, it's still a rampant market (how long?) with the tide lifting almost all boats. Still have some stale ones though. Can't get them all.

All imo

Yes decent push today.

No company specific news to speak of I don’t think?

Looks like the 3rd highest volume day in the last 12 months. Would be nice if it was someone accumulating a block.

[sphere25] 14/1/2021 14:27

Well, that's looking like a nice breakout with the price up 10% at 38p.

I guess we'll settle for that and hopefully now a push onto sitting around that target price of 40p awaiting further news.

All imo

13. 23. 6 60. 71. ??

[haroldthegreat] 14/1/2021 08:13

Some very low trades yesterday. Are they market maker signals ? If so what is their meaning

[gleach23] 13/1/2021 17:46

Not much stock available going into the close sphere, so fingers crossed...

[sphere25] 13/1/2021 16:09

Not done alot this since popping from mid 20's. It has been consolidating gains but just edging higher now.

Are we going to make that next leg up soon?

[haroldthegreat] 12/1/2021 11:54

Stephen said xpd had all the systems in place to cope with brexit paperwork . Would be interesting to know now that there is chaos elsewhere if xpd are running smoothly with no problems and all their shipments are sailing through

[hootstox] 24/12/2020 11:39

Or the channel tunnel being reopened?

[mfhmfh] 24/12/2020 09:48

Brexit deal near...
