After taking over Parkman, and taking Parkman Chief Executive Richard Cuthbert, Mouchel's share price has dropped, fuelled mainly by the reported costs of the merger. Preliminary results for the year to July will be published in October. for

However the merger costs are 'one-off's' and the new organisation is stronger (and claims it will make further acquistions). Is it ready for take-off in the run-up to the publication of accounts?

thanks for your reply

Devon - I hope it was of some help.

Today was "double witching" day - this occurred @10:10 am. You may find this thread interesting, although it tends to be a bit of a damp squib these days.

I lifted this link from over the road.

Pothole misery to end at last.

Skinny,
You are great in predicting stocks.

Interim Results.

What was that we could see last months from a mile off? Oh yes, that's it - 'dilutive equity raise' ....

:-)

i'm long here now @7.55 - think the sell off's been overdone

We are evaluating all options for restructuring our balance sheet. These options include a significantly dilutive equity raise.

I really do hope you come out of this smiling but what part of that statement encouraged you to 'go long' ? ... Any dilution will almost certainly be at a discount to market price otherwise no-one would buy into it.....

Mouchel appoints Managing Director

for Mouchel Business Services division

Mouchel, the infrastructure and business services Group, has appointed Craig Apsey as Managing Director of its Business Services division effective 11 June, 2012.

Craig joins Mouchel from BT's Local, Regional and Devolved Government business where he held the posts of Chief Operating Officer and then Director of Major Deals. At BT he was responsible for the safe delivery of bespoke programmes to BT's business process outsourcing customers, the development of the associated knowledge and skills base, and the creation of new value-added services. Prior to this Craig spent nearly ten years working for the civil service in a number of posts at the Department of Social Security (now Department of Work and Pensions). During his time there Craig was responsible for Solutions Architecture and the rollout of a new network and equipment to the Contributions Agency.

In his new role Craig will initially build on the excellent work started by Interim Managing Director, Michael Gates, consolidating Mouchel's property and consultancy businesses, identifying and delivering best practice, developing the delivery model and implementing the transformation that Mouchel's clients require and expect.

Grant Rumbles, Chief Executive of Mouchel, said, "We are delighted to have Craig on board. With nearly three decades of experience working with local government organisations and as a civil servant in ICT, he is an ideal choice for this position. His recent senior roles with BT give him the knowledge and experience to play a vital part in Mouchel's transformation and future business success."
