Large investors include Unilever and Nigel Wray consortium. 4 million will be used by Myhome as working capital in order to further build its franchise. The company is CEOs O'Connell's creation. He merged his own residential cleaning business with a carefully researched and computerised rival developed by Unilever. The detergent behemoth lost interest after spending, in small company terms, a fortune developing an IT franchising operation. It still has shares in Myhome, issued when it sold out. There is no doubt that Unilever's sophisticated computerised system has provided Myhome with invaluable infrastructure.
It has allowed it to expand its home-cleaning operations and buy other franchise businesses. Besides residential cleaning, the group undertakes grass cutting, oven and car cleaning, and kitchen and bathroom refurbishment. It has about 300 franchisees; in three years it expects the number to top 700.

The Company's shares will continue to be capable of being traded on PLUS.

290 franchisees;

4 million investment by Nigel Wray, Stephen Hemsley and certain other

On 15 November 2006 the Company announced that the Investors had agreed to
subscribe 4 million for 10,000,000 new ordinary shares of 5p each in the
Company (the 'Subscription Shares') at a price of 40p per Subscription Share

Old Historic thread with plenty of usefull contributions and information....

Latest analyst forecasts ...

Our highly conservative estimates put September 2007 earnings at 6.8p rising to 13.5p in 2008. At 68.5p, Myhome trades on a 2007 earnings multiple of 10.4 falling 5.3 in 2008. That does not discount the explosive growth we have learnt to expect from the group, including the newly incorporated revenue of Ovenclean and Autosheen plus future earnings enhancing acquisitions.

Our forecasts and recommendation are suspended pending the publication of a detailed note next month.


DYOR.

So master we have a sell confirmed signal from british bulls. what do you recommend?

Confidentholder - 30 Jun 2008 08:16 - 438 of 459

Bad news all round. I was hoping for an increase in profits but that may be a couple of years away.

halifax - 30 Jun 2008 09:17 - 440 of 459

Accounts suggest they are in need of a substantial cash injection.Steer clear imho.

hangon - 01 Jul 2008 11:27 - 441 of 459

Today rather confirms the sp movement mid-June08 was wrong...as I posted.
Oh dear.

On the Good side, here is a business that is well motivated. Let's hope the franchisees see it that way and continue to deliver, etc.
I saw them at Growth Co Show... and the sp wasn't good then...was tempted, but I resisted.

driver - 22 Jul 2008 09:57 - 442 of 459

Ooop's clad I got out at 100p down 51% today 4p mid.

UK smallcap opening - Myhome slides on breach of covenants; equity issue fears
AFX


LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Myhome International shares were on the back foot, sliding 2.375 pence to 5.50 pence as the domestic cleaning franchise warned it is in breach of some of its banking facility covenants due to a weak economic climate and reduced trading expectations.

However, it is in 'constructive' talks with Lloyds TSB to restructure its 8 million-pound bank line.

A number of options are being explored to reduce the facility, including an equity issue at 'a realistic discount' to the current share price. The board is in preliminary discussions with some of its larger shareholders about the possibility of participating in such an equity fundraising.

Meanwhile, Myhome's Q3 results were in line with the board expectations.

made money on this when it flew north a few mnths ago then banked it.

When you've made yer profit you have to sell in these markets otherwise you pay the penalty.

driver - 22 Jul 2008 10:08 - 444 of 459

dealerdear
I lost a bit on these bought at 108p out at 100p its so easy to stick with it then lose the lot we have all done it.

halifax - 22 Jul 2008 10:12 - 445 of 459

Yes "take the money and run" certainly is the phlosophy at the moment. Hope lloyds will continue to support MYH otherwise having cashflow problems in this market could mean the end.

dealerdear - 22 Jul 2008 10:14 - 446 of 459

You're telling me!
I'm making masses of paper losses on a variety of companies.
Because of that and this market in particular I'll only buy now short term, make a profit and sell.

I have no confidence in this market at all and the MM's in particular.
Much better to day trade atm IMO.

kimoldfield - 22 Jul 2008 11:27 - 447 of 459

My guess is that they will continue to have the support of Lloyds, without their foreign interests I think MYH may have struggled but as things are and with the restructuring undertaken, I feel that in time, the company will recover.

PapalPower - 22 Jul 2008 11:34 - 448 of 459

LOL - is that a ramp I see flying in the sky ???????


Master RSI - 13 Jun 2008 13:35 - 436 of 447

Short of stock, and end of retracement that is all
I selected the share this morning for the "UPS" as there was a retracement of 2/3 or 63% and buyers were buying again after a 50K late yesterday

Today news of results by 30th June 08

kimoldfield - 22 Jul 2008 11:42 - 449 of 459

Haha! No just my own thoughts. Master's may have been though ;o)

dealerdear - 22 Jul 2008 12:21 - 450 of 459

and on the basis of Master RSI I made loads of money thank you very much.

As I said you make your money and get out.
Master also got out with a big profit.

kimoldfield - 22 Jul 2008 12:28 - 451 of 459

Yep, tis the way to do it!

halifax - 22 Jul 2008 15:06 - 452 of 459

What a bombshell! TW has called for the resignation of the CEO Russell O'Connell as it is alledged he is running a franchise from the MYH carpark(you couldn't make this up!) which is making 350k pa. Shareholders and others close to the company were apparently unaware that the CEO owned this business but perhaps Lloyds found out.

hangon - 28 Jul 2008 09:04 - 453 of 459


Halifax, - - - - It will be in the Auditors' Notes somewhere, suggest you re-read the Accounts. Otherwise it would be inside-trading, or at least not at "arms length" etc.
-This Business needs cash to supply the "loan" that gets franchises on-board.....that's where the money/debt comes from.(unless anyone knows different...)
You might argue that the "fee" then becomes a debt (until repaid), but that's not the issue IMHO. There seem to be too few profits being made by Franchisees....Maybe they aren't suffieiecntly profitable to make a go of things in the early-years, This means MYH has less cash-flow than their recent expansion plans demand.....

Whatever it is, I suspect LLOY will offer support at the "going-rate", etc.
+Don't expect a rapid rise in SP, but it ain't broke, yet.
I don't hold this.

dealerdear - 03 Sep 2008 14:56 - 454 of 459

LLOY have called the loan in and the shares are suspended.

Don't hold but it does look like it could be the end of the road.

kimoldfield - 03 Sep 2008 15:22 - 455 of 459

Lloyds are soooo mean!

hangon - 03 Sep 2008 15:28 - 456 of 459

Seems odd, or are LLOY just being a bit mean -? My post 28July is in "tatters" - Oh dear!

On the other hand I doubt LLOY would do this lightly....for, by doing it, the "worth" of [MYH] is in further doubt - and any (alternative), refinancing might be shot - or at a greater burden. Seems rather odd, or has LLOY got wind the Refinancing is doomed?

Greif, this isn't good for shareholders. . . . . this was over 20p only days after their appearance at the Investor-Exhibition, mid-08 . . . . . yesterday we're looking at 4/5p - that's 25% down in just weeks . . . . . . . was this "Alternative Reinancing" part of their story? I must have missed it...
