Quindell Portfolio = Extending nicely for the future! (QPP)     

skyhigh - 19 Dec 2011 20:27


Chart.aspx?Provider=EODIntra&Code=QPP&SiChart.aspx?Provider=EODIntra&Code=QPP&Si



Bought in today... have missed out on the impressive gains so far but solid progress is being made here and a good story developing so it looks good for more gains in the near future (imho)....

Quindell Portfolio, the brand extension company, says trading has continued positively in the period under review, building on the strong performance delivered by the Group in the first half.

The company expects to be significantly ahead of market expectations for the 15 month period ending 31 December 2011.

The Group announced back in October that it had won contracts with six established brands and one exciting new digital brand within the insurance, telecoms and utilities sectors, including for the first time, solar energy; and that revenues for 2011 were expected to be ahead of market expectations.

Since then, the Group has won further major contracts with established brands within the telecoms, utilities, on-line education and insurance sectors for both its technology enabled business process outsourcing division and software solutions division.

In aggregate, these contract wins could contribute over £6 million of annualised revenues. In addition, the Group has acquired two further businesses, Maine Finance and, most recently, Mobile Doctors Group Plc.

Margin performance has also been strong and, for 2011, margins are expected to be between 35 and 40 per cent. within its technology enabled business process outsourcing operations

It does, I agree and I will be glad when I can execute my exit strategy from this company as management seem less than competent, imo. Might see the sp take a temporary dip when trading recommences.

aldwickk - 01 Apr 2015 13:39 - 1887 of 1965

Maybe it is management being competent and acting quickly

HARRYCAT - 01 Apr 2015 13:40 - 1888 of 1965

Retrospectively!

What a pig in a poke (again)!

The delay in clarification and the the resumption of trading just adds weight to the conspiracy mongers.

Must of been listening!

SHAREHOLDER CIRCULAR CORRECTION

from the transcript :-

"It is noted on page 6 of the Circular that the profits attributable to the Professional Services Division were stated as follows:

"During the financial year ended 31 December 2013, the profits before tax generated by the Professional Services Division contributed in aggregate £82,500,0001 to the Group. During the six months ended 30 June 2014, the profits before tax generated by the Professional Services Division contributed in aggregate £113,400,0002."

The Board has noted that there was a failure to fully transcribe profits related to entities forming part of the Disposal as disclosed in the Circular (predominantly in respect of iSaaS Technology Limited and Intelligent Claims Management Limited, entities previously included within the Company's "Digital Solutions" division in historic financial information). As a result, the corrected total profits attributable to the Professional Services Division are as follows:

"During the financial year ended 31 December 2013, the profits before tax generated by the Professional Services Division contributed in aggregate £96,000,0001 to the Group. During the six months ended 30 June 2014, the profits before tax generated by the Professional Services Division contributed in aggregate £130,700,000 2.""

** The Telegraph writes the suspension is due to an error found in the deal announcement (http://bit.ly/1C7u1NC) (RM: francesco.canepa.thomsonreuters.com@reuters.net)

I really can't see the point in duplicating the same post on both
the QPP threads and don't understand the relevance of the other
thread. I think Cynic's comments about its relevance or irrelevance
some time ago were spot on.

The shares are not longer suspended but I noticed MAM stockwatch are not moving the price but the trades are showing alright

skinny - 01 Apr 2015 16:01 - 1896 of 1965

They've pinched my post! :-)

midknight - 01 Apr 2015 16:05 - 1897 of 1965

Yes, your post is timed earlier, Skinny, Copyright?

skinny - 02 Apr 2015 08:03 - 1898 of 1965

Here we go again - extended auction!

cynic - 02 Apr 2015 08:29 - 1899 of 1965

is there any trading life left in this one?
i think probably not

HARRYCAT - 02 Apr 2015 08:31 - 1900 of 1965

There might be after Easter. Presumably people will want to tidy up before the break.

Balerboy - 02 Apr 2015 18:41 - 1901 of 1965

What have they got left of value to sell off ???? Thats the only way the sp is going to climb with no deals being done now.,.

Off Topic
Opinion: No Opinion
Price: 130.25


Today 13:55THIS IS NOT ADVICE: its my personal opinion and I apologise for the ramble that's coming.

I have invested around £120k and have an average of £1.42: if I have made bad decisions.....this will be devastating (to put it into the context of your own commitments).

My first dip into QPP was a couple of weeks before Gotham. I invested not because of the hype, but the fundamentals, audited numbers, margins, contract wins and above all....then end-to-end technology and services play. I work in the technology field and to me it was a no-brainer business model. I knew nothing of Rob Terry (my fault) and wasnt bothered about the bit parts of scaffolding etc.

Fast forward 12 painful months: my initial investment around £5.40 (today's money)......has been averaged down to £1.42 DESPITE the hammering of the last year (or maybe BECAUSE of it). NONE of the original reasons I invested have changed...........

So now I have a choice: vote NO, try and make the company limp forward, and continue with more manipulation. This is great for traders and those who have the skills/knowledge to trade. I dont. I'm an investor.

Or vote YES. Take the return of capital (lets say £1/share) and hold my shares in a new technology business which has cash in the bank, is debt-free, is profitable, will have future revenues from NIHL cases, has world-classs clients, is opening in the US, has already opened in Canada and had its biggest day of sales in the company's history as this all kicks in..........has no doubt new contracts which have not been announced (a major NA car maker has been named in rumours), is in an industry where the EC has directed that all new cars from Sept (?) must have telematics built-in.......

For me personally.....I think I'm now happier than I was on Wednesday, when I felt sick to my stomach when the shares were suspended and I had a migraine all day.....in fact: I'm absolutely looking forward to this new direction.

Just one simple guy's opinion. Im not an accountant and I dont talk numbers......I hope this helps in some way.

Board Appointment

On 30 March 2015, Quindell Plc (AIM: QPP.L) announced the proposed sale of its Professional Services Division to Slater and Gordon Limited ("Slater and Gordon") and certain Board changes that would follow completion of that disposal ("Completion"). Completion is conditional on, inter alia, approval from the Company's shareholders, the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Financial Conduct Authority.

The Company now announces that Mark Williams will become Group Finance Director and will join the Board with effect from Completion. Mr Williams has been working as an integral member of the consultancy team appointed to assist the Board in January 2015.

As part of these changes, the Company confirms that Laurence Moorse, the outgoing Group Finance Director, will step down from the Board at Completion but will remain available to the Board and the finance team to provide an orderly handover.

In addition, the Company has commenced an external and internal search process for the Group Chief Executive Officer role, which will be vacant on Completion because, as previously announced, Robert Fielding will transfer to Slater and Gordon.

Commenting on the forthcoming appointment, Richard Rose, Non-executive Chairman Designate, said: "Mark has been working with the Group for a number of months and has been assisting the Board on a number of work streams. This experience will help him hit the ground running and we are delighted to welcome Mark to this new phase in the Company's history."

Information required under paragraph (g) of Schedule 2 of the AIM Rules will be made at the time of the formal appointment of Mr Williams.

Background information

Mark Williams, aged 50, is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants and has nearly 30 years of finance experience. Mark has had a varied career to date, having qualified with what is now Deloitte. His experience ranges from a technology driven entrepreneurial start up through to divisions of major international FTSE businesses and through several business cycles. He has operated at board level for the past 15 years, including roles at AXA, Cofunds, Guardian Royal Exchange, Legal & General, Old Mutual and Skandia.

Quob Park Estate Intends to Vote ‘YES’ At The Quindell EGM

On Friday 17th April 2015, Quindell PLC (QPP.L) will be asking its shareholders to agree to the disposal of its Professional Services division (including related technology assets) to Australian legal firm Slater & Gordon for an initial circa £637 million.

The disposal should see an initial £500 million returned to shareholders, as well as a share of future revenue from its circa 53,000 industrial deafness cases, which we suggest could easily be worth another £150m to Quindell shareholders under the terms of the proposed Slater & Gordon deal. As a core shareholder of Quindell, we at Quob Park Estate intend to vote ‘Yes' to the proposition.

We view the deal as undervalued, based on a circa 7 x PE of the Road Traffic Accident related work of Quindell whilst Slater and Gordon trades on circa 21x PE. Incidentally Quindell itself should have been able to attract a similar multiple and would have meant that those assets being sold alone would have effectively supported the total peak valuation of Quindell of £2.4 billion, even without the upside from Noise Induced Hearing Loss work.

Considering both the unprecedented shorting attack that the company and shareholders have endured over the past year and the ability of the management and future board structure that is now to be in place to deliver on this underlying value, we consider the proposed agreement to be in the best interests of Quindell shareholders at this juncture.

The question remains however as to what Quindell will be worth following the disposal.
Our founder and Chief Executive, Rob Terry may be better placed than most to shed some light on what the remainder of Quindell is worth and will provide an update on his view in the near future (post the EGM vote) as to why Quindell should currently attract a valuation of £2.00+ per share, assuming the absence of shorters affecting the share price.

Quob Park Estate are working with and investing in a number of companies that are focused on the benefits of Digital Disruption. Whilst remaining private equity focused, in the future we will open our doors to retail investors and will be providing our view on the valuations of a number of our other investments including Daniel Stewart (DAN.L).
