Tanfield Group - any info out there? (TAN)     

mr mike - 21 Jan 2004 13:49

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

Mike

That another 10% saving in 5 mins, for prospective purchasers. Not finished in my opinion.

oily

i was talking about my immigrant friend cynic who bought in at well over a quid not that long ago....and now he's ditched shares at well over 70% less.....even banks took about 18 months for this t happen....not a month or so like tan

cynic - 01 Jul 2008 14:22 - 784 of 1076

out of curiosity, when in your bigotted eyes is an immigrant not an immigrant?

oilyrag - 01 Jul 2008 14:25 - 785 of 1076

I know you were talking about cynic, but as I have read this BB for some considerable time now I am well aware of several profit takings made by him along the way. Thats why I suggested that he may not be on a loss at the end of his trading, this time around on this company.

oilyrag - 01 Jul 2008 14:26 - 786 of 1076

Richard, when he's born here. LOL.

oilyrag - 01 Jul 2008 14:27 - 787 of 1076

Back to TAN up to 8.47p to buy again.

scotinvestor - 01 Jul 2008 14:45 - 788 of 1076

Tanfield shares collapse
Created: 1 July 2008 Written by: Graeme Davies
As expected following a hurried statement last week, powered access and electric vehicle maker Tanfield has warned on profits. Sales deteriorated markedly in June, management has put the brakes on its rapid expansion strategy, and there could be job losses. Furthermore, some customers have been slow to pay, inventory levels have risen and supply chain constraints have caused some delays in deliveries.



All this has the hallmarks of too much, too fast, in particular the acquisition last year of Snorkel, a powered-access provider in the US. Working capital has ballooned - there were warning signs of this several months ago - and Tanfield is not getting paid quickly enough by its customers.

This is particularly worrying, as it suggests a breakdown in financial controls, which is often the precursor to financial distress. Tanfield is insulated from that to a degree, because it has net cash on the balance sheet, but the expected reduction in sales and the expected pressure on margins going forward could soon erode that cushion.

The share price performance over the past few days has vividly illustrated the old adage "a share that's fallen 90 per cent can always fall another 90 per cent". A year ago, the shares changed hands at 184p; today they're just a twentieth of that.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IC VIEW:
FairlyPricedFrom one of Aim's darlings in 2007, Tanfield has become a short-seller's dream of late. Its shares have shed almost 90 per cent of their value in the space of a week, and are fairly priced at 9p.

scotinvestor - 01 Jul 2008 15:58 - 796 of 1076

shorters have to buy back shares at some pont though

cynic - 01 Jul 2008 16:44 - 797 of 1076

only if the company goes into liquidation or similar and MMs must be stuffed full of stock they would like to unload

skinny - 01 Jul 2008 16:45 - 798 of 1076
