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

serious dumping going on??

Trades show heavy buying at 13.75p. However, think I will wait for the sp to hit the 200 DMA before considering my options.

tks Harry, re-entry around 12p?

Certainly worth a look at 12p. Depends on whether the sp bounces or sails on down! On my watch list and as no obvious reason for the drop, am keen to get in, especially as QPP are expanding into the US, though that's no guarantee of success.

Looking oversold @13p

says it all imo

Actually it doesn't say it all as it goes on to read

additional confidence in the Group's ability to provide the necessary visibility to the market of its outsourcing revenues to meet market expectations for 2014 and beyond

All shaping nicely..

Well today's news should put paid to any doubts - and should see the share price climb past the previous 17.5p closing high. There's an interview with ceo Rob Terry in tomorrow's edition of Shares magazine, which I imagine will add to the positive mood ahead of the next scheduled figures on October 21st.

I wouldn't expect a Shmag subscriber to reveal the full content of today's article on Quindell - but would anyone care to comment on the gist of it?

Plenty of favourable press comment today. The Canadian listing the company now talks of will be significantly cheaper than a full US listing (and much less onerous to achieve) and makes sense with so much Quindell activity in that region. They can always go for a full US listing at some future date if the company does well with its UK mainmarket listing next Spring and if there is demand for it from US investors.

Yep, all progressing well and looking good!
