Tanfield Group is the new company name of Comeleon. As I understand it, Comoleon was getting into trouble so TAN (paerent company?) took over. Since this has happened the share price has dropped by 0.25p each day for the last week or so (on average) and are now around the 3p mark with very little activity.

Does anyone know much about this company or previously held stock in Comeleon? There is virtually no info out there other than on the company website.

cheers

its 30p now.....its in meltdown!

if its 10p by monday or tuesday, i'll buy

FWIW the Mkt cap and Turnover appear out of step....so unless there are gold bars in the Store, it's overpriced big time, IMHO...perhaps this "green vehicle" nonsense has run its course.
If the slowdown continues, we shan't need any delivery vehicles.

This afternoon, trading @ 30p doesn't tempt me.

Personally, I think the US-company ann. is NOT Tanfield - but the RNS didn't make it clear (why not? Should be No1 question). However, it would be surprising if TAN sales weren't down, wouldn't it?
Why the fall? - TAN-holders wanted to take their profits, before it all fell over..

I think 10p is probably several months away. A lot will depend on company announcements of course. I've noticed generally that when prices fall dramatically they either hit a wall and bounce, or hit a wall and go sideways, ultimatley trending lower (and slower) over the following months and years though.

In my opinion.

Strawbs.

i cant believe cynic aint commenting on this.....and he'ds gone quiet on barc too

This reminds me of Worthington Nicholls...which has gone bust now.

i didnt even know that hyleo....its funny how one loses track of certain shares over time.

ah, that was one of goldfinger great tips! and in 2006 i think so hardly a long time ago. beware of gf tips.....many bomb from what i've seen

think worthington nicholls had a name change to manage support ord.

scot I have noticed your many postings on a number [many] coys, and they have left me wondering whether in fact you own any shares at all ... any way I bought shares in Tan yesterday @ 28.75 despite all your many warnings, could that be contra investing? Also I very much look forward to a posting from you recomending something to buy.

ive been beating this, my same drum, about risk awareness, money management,and averaging down,( buying against the trend) for quite some time.
enough time to have hopefully helped any that listened or heeded.
unless they have deep pockets usually, and most of us dont.
it isnt a question of being bullish or bearish, it doesnt matter, its simply being in control of risk.

ok so cynic got this one wrong, so what?
have you never been wrong?
i got pfc wrong, cynic got it right.
and so it goes on, thats the nature of the market.
as long as we get more right righter than wrong wronger then we stay ahead.
but no one gets everything right.
thats why money management and risk management is so important.
please dont tell me i am posting after the event
best regards to you all

Although trading for the first five months of 2008 was relatively strong and in line with management's expectations, a marked slowing in our markets was experienced throughout June. In light of this and the deteriorating wider macro economic outlook, the Board of Directors has adopted a more prudent and conservative approach. The Group has therefore determined that its rapid growth strategy should be realigned. The outlook for the Group as a whole, whilst still one of year-on-year growth, is growth at a significantly lower level than previously forecasted. The revised strategy now focuses on delivering cash conversion of profit and growing at a more moderate rate. This will allow the Group to implement plans to address the anticipated radical changes in the global markets in which we operate, as they happen. Therefore the company will not meet the market's expectations for the year, which were set at a time of much more favourable and positive market conditions.



The dynamics have changed in Tanfield's main markets, most markedly in the Powered Access division, which accounts for 75%-80% of projected revenues, as customers react to overall change in economic outlook. Our distributors and end users customers are experiencing the following;

fall off in demand in their markets

reduction in access to credit

instigation of capital freezes

postponement of replacement plans

We have immediately implemented changes to protect the core businesses including accelerated work in progress and raw material inventory reduction, reduced expansion activity and headcount reductions.

The change in growth strategy will reverse previous working capital absorption. The Board is confident that the cash created by this process is sufficient to allow the business to weather any extended deterioration in market conditions. The net cash position of 11.1m at the half year, however, was less than expected resulting from customer payment delays; increased inventory levels; and late delivery arising from supply chain constraints. The impact of these issues has been offset, in part, by increasing creditor days.

As expected...see post 746
