RTD - Why? (RTD)     

Nitefly - 15 Sep 2003 10:55

Why are we again at 10.5p bid?

It doesn't add up...

Good Results + Strong buying pre results + Christmas online buying soon = Price drop

Then again some companies that have debt for equity hanging in the balance, poor results and bankruptcy around the corner and they go up!

Why sell now at a loss?

Wont that be a kick in the teeth when we see 13.5p 14p again!

Best of luck all.

Tokyo - 02 Mar 2004 07:56 - 852 of 2406

looking at the trades, they are all sells
Am I missing something here?
I thought 5.9 million was good news

Fundamentalist - 02 Mar 2004 08:04 - 853 of 2406

I see the maximum online dealing size is currently 10,000 shares ie 2500, who says they don't play games eh!

apple - 02 Mar 2004 08:48 - 854 of 2406

Oh well I'm out.

My stop loss was triggered.

I'll be watching from the sidelines for a while until things settle down.

Good luck all.

These results are very important. RTD has finally made a profit and can only go forward from here.

The share price will slowly, but surely rise over the next 6-12 months. I don't expect any great leaps in price unless something unexpected happens.

RTD will be re-rated and so price up in the medium-term.

Good luck to all

i have been watching rtd for a while waiting for the results before i act . confused as to why the price would drop when a company posts a cracking set of results . i know the price has risen over the last few months but is there something missing from the results that i cant see? unsure now wheteher to jump in.

Fundamentalist - 02 Mar 2004 09:45 - 857 of 2406

Personally I dont think so. There has been a lot of hype prior to these results and a lot of people have been sitting on large paper profits and some are taking them. Remember some people bought in as low as 2.5p and there has been buying from that price upwards. Personally I believe the results statement sets us up for a great year ahead, with continued growth and increasing profits. I expect the price will be volatile for a few days with several dips but with some positive analysts/press statement over the coming week IMHO I expect the price to start to advance again - an RNS with institutional buying would be nice. I sill hold for the long term and will continue to do so but if buying in DYOR

apple - 02 Mar 2004 09:46 - 858 of 2406

I bought back in on the dip.

& the buyers are coming back :-)

javidshaik - 02 Mar 2004 09:49 - 859 of 2406

This is pretty normal behaviour for the day of results. Volatility is expected. People selling for profit and people buying for investment. RTD is a good company and has a good structure. This company will be going very far in the coming months now.
Congrats to all RTD holders.

apple - 02 Mar 2004 09:58 - 860 of 2406

I can't believe my luck, I caught it right at the bottom of the dip.

Perfect timing for a change.

I hope that there isn't another lower dip but hey I'm happy with the price I got.

javidshaik - 02 Mar 2004 10:32 - 861 of 2406

Could someone who has access to level 2 please have a look and see if MM's are playing around or if trades are coming through ok? On my realtime data (not level 2), it shows there havent been any buys for over an hour and I cant believe that.

Thanks

According to posters on ADVFN, games are being played - one guy bought shares and then saw them posted as a sell - sorry don't have access to level 2 myself so can't confirm

also, Daniel Stewart has reiterated BUY and raised target price from 27p to 31p though Oriel have downgraded to HOLD from BUY

javidshaik - 02 Mar 2004 13:56 - 863 of 2406

thank you fundamentalist. i feel MM's are having a laugh at present. i think we will be back to a good rise once today is over.

From elsewhere, Crazi a supporter and reliable poster on RTD who has also posted often on this site. (Hope this is OK Crazi if you are reading).

) Excellent cash in hand...
2) EPS growth expectation already matched expected ended 04 target by house broker....
3) Market growing impressively and even clumpy is very optimistic about it. It is end user base I am more interested in but new and extended contracts do no harm either....
4) Turnover going "straight" to the bottom line...
5) Tech investment beginning again this year and the ftse growing from strength to strength will ensure that investment capital is available. RTD was dragged down with tech and so will be boosted by tech..
6) Buy recomendations from multiple brokers
7) press coverage very positive sentiment
8) Management not interested in any bids
9) All divisions now cash positive

and clumpies last words..:)

"Growth expected to continue in '04"

Considering the growth they proved in 03....that is a nice statement...:)

"Revenues at our smaller South African division also grew during the year. We
anticipate a contribution to Group profitability in the current year, helped by
important new contracts secured in January 2004."

"We will continue to grow the proportion of Group revenues generated on a per transaction basis. Our flagship ebitGuard service is expected to make an increasing contribution as worldwide online sales continue to grow strongly. ReD's proprietary neural technology is also being adopted by a growing number of companies"

New wins included Paysystems in Canada, Register.com and ShopNBC in the USA. In
addition we have renewed agreements with Walmart.com and GSI Commerce. In
Europe we won business with euroConex and Streamline Merchant Services, Europe's largest acquirer of credit and debit card transactions. In January 2004 ReD signed its first continental European agreement to supply ebitGuard toPago eTransaction Services GmbH, one of the largest pan-European aggregators of e-payment transaction services.

Today disapointing but not surprising here's to all the tomorows xfinger D. :o))

Results look good to me, significantly better than analysts expectations. I thought 5.5m would be good, however 5.9m and plenty of bullish confidence for the future from CC is about as good as it could realistically get. A drop was expected (lots of people have made a good wedge and treated results day as a good time to realise some profit) but we're actually up .25p on Friday's close, so in my view the price has held up well. When the all sellers have the cash in their pockets, buying strength still suggests that the price is going to shift upwards and it could take us all by surprise e.g. this Friday afternoon is a perfect time for this to happen.

I've been a bit busy today so haven't managed to track the price too much, though there hasn't been the oft. seen manic upward and downward swings caused by excessive day trading. It's almost as though the MMs are deliberately keeping the price at a low level to allow some hefty institutional buying in the background.

Further media coverage will help to propel us in the 30's, does anyone know if the results being this morning means that we've missed the Investor's Chronicle and Shares Mag this week ?

All the best folks,

Let's see if we get a steady rise tomorrow with no fireworks.

thought results were very good also.

Pity RTD did not send the RNS with all these contracts mentioned above. I dont think the city has taken any account of this. When u look at any share announcing a contract, theres always a bit of an upward swing in price.

Douggie - 03 Mar 2004 09:07 - 871 of 2406

never thought we would see this price again b/s 1:11 :o((
