The Chimp is in a roll today and about to get better as I'm down 18k because of the fall. Still both he and I know that in the grand scale of things it becomes irrelevant

Let's try and keep this board constructive and civil as it has been before Monkey arrived. YU has always been a recovery play and has outperformed people's expectations over last 12/18 months and the share price has risen strongly from dark days of 70p that's over a 300% increase and you can't get that on the ftse. I am well in profit so, lets see how things progress but, in line with expectations isn't shabby in my opinion from where the company has come from.

Roll on the Agm hopefully clarification re the sale of building and leaeback.

Let me ask you a question, why has the share price fallen so far from 380p to 230p in less than 3 months? That's a drop of 150p or -40% in just a few months...now that's shocking!

During a global pandemic and that was with 1.8m loss H1 v profit in H2

Oh dear there's another red tick, well you were warned.

Revenue of £101.5m, loss of £1.2m....really

Can't argue with any of that Sparky, well apart from it not being a profitable company that is.

2020 accounts stated "Loss for the year (after tax) of £1.2m".

So let me ask you this.Good energy well run profitable company MC nearly 50M but a large chuck of debt. Yu no debt, higher revenue, focus on SMEs only yet MC now only 30m+Yet YU is growing far faster than Good Energy.???

Couple of 10k buys showing...maybe that will lift it again?

or then again maybe not...how strange the share price falls on buys now...weird

[monkey puzzle] 27/5/2021 09:28

Well that bounce was short lived

[monkey puzzle] 27/5/2021 09:26

Good question and one I have asked many many times in the past.

[sparky333] 27/5/2021 09:23

Why are you here ? You do not own any shares and I doubt a stock like YU can be shorted so ?

[monkey puzzle] 27/5/2021 09:19

Off 15% and top of the leader board today has probably brought in some bargain hunters/day traders looking for a quick profit?

[monkey puzzle] 27/5/2021 09:16

Well at least trade volume is up, highest levels for 2 months. Buyers at 230 levels fwiw and no sells.

[seagull222] 27/5/2021 09:09

Yes it's a disappointing update from that perspective as we are now meant to be in the rapid scale up phase and the digital channels should be going to turbo boost mode. Dissappointing but, 3 months were in lockdown Jan-Mar so, expect things to power ahead , wish they provided guidance re increased customer confidence etc. Its continuing to drop hard to watch.

Companies giving dire outlooks and begging the banks and bond holders to consolidate debt mountains do not get hammered like this.Insanity

[sparky333] 27/5/2021 09:06

Buyers sniffing now, over done ?

[sparky333] 27/5/2021 09:04

I am getting a little tempted at this level let's see how it plays out post AGM Already have over 100k from 50p

[tradertrev] 27/5/2021 09:04

Ever heard of seasonality?
And look at the 2 year comparison, which a lot of other companies are highlighting.
I agree that this statement was more bland and less upbeat than January, and I also expected some profit taking to occur, but this growth story has many more years to run.
I detect a de-ramper.

[arsey] 27/5/2021 09:03

Running at 7.2million now for first four months of year. We were in lockdown. That's a good performance. Good entry point now. RC

[sparky333] 27/5/2021 09:01

I better sell everything Abandon ship lol.I have patience lots of it in fact and the long game always wins in the end or maybe I should try Crytpo ? Hmm no thanks
