agreed, share based payments are a direct cost to shareholders and should not be excluded from declared profit. They are all too readily excluded from the figures by every company to provide a false gloss on the accounts and to cover up the usually too generous Director rewards.
Can only vote against the remuneration report when given the chance to protect shareholders' funds but too many institutional investors are complicit in the practice.

I have been looking at YouGov following positive write ups in the Investors Chronicle recently. But is a present valuation of over £1bn not crazily high for a company making annual profits in the £20m to £30m region? Or is extraordinary growth in the offing?

"comfortably ahead". Terrific.
Such a quiet thread, too. No private investor hysteria.

This thread and analysis by Paul Scott is essential reading for any shareholder in YOU or indeed potential investors...



I note that directors have happily been selling shares over the past year or so and at much lower prices.

This share has had a good run lately. I got in following some coverage in the Financial Times a while back, and so far, so good. It's a fairly high profile company that features frequently on tv political news items, but also is off the radar of many investors. Just how I like it!

I'd expected earnings to beat forecasts and this is probably why the stock has sold off. I think investors were expecting meaningful upgrades.

See article below which was published in Guardian back in August. At that time Numis downgraded yougov from 62p to 58p. The recent Numis note (Sept) has upgraded to 67p. A bit of a step change in such a short period. They Must be comfortable company is doing well. German election just finished, I wonder if this has anything to do with the upgrade.

Pollster YouGov cheers marketComments (0)

Buzz up!
Digg it
Polling and market research company YouGov is in demand today after reassuring the market that trading over the last 12 months was "in line with current market expectations".

The shares are up 4p, or 7.7%, at 56p.

The company admits the trading environment is "difficult" and will remain "challenging" until at the end of 2009 but says it is starting to see benefits from its cost-cutting.

The company tells investors:

"YouGov continues to have a strong balance sheet, is cash generative and remains well placed to support its strategic plans.

All of the Company's geographies have performed as expected in the last six months, including the recently acquired Clear Horizons business in the US."

"YouGov has recently been appointed to the UK Government's Central Office of Information Market Research framework which will enable us to compete for a wider range of pubic sector research projects."

It also flags up a potential lift in coming months from political polling activities in Germany and the UK thanks to forthcoming elections.

Analysts at Numis said in a note:

"We highlight YouGov's strong brand, profitability, cash generation
and solid balance sheet and retain our add recommendation."

"Although we expect the trading environment to remain challenging, we believe the structural opportunity remains firmly intact."

But they cut their price target to 58p from 62p because they take a "more cautious view on fiscal 2010" and are adjusting forecasts to
"reflect lower interest on cash balances" and lowering their upper-end pre-tax profit and earnings per share estimates from £6m/3.8p to £4.6m/2.8p.

no div so why bother - investors can't live on air, the directors don't, so why should we be conned into believing jam tomorrow is going to be worth having!
