Quindell Portfolio = Extending nicely for the future! (QPP)     

skyhigh - 19 Dec 2011 20:27


Chart.aspx?Provider=EODIntra&Code=QPP&SiChart.aspx?Provider=EODIntra&Code=QPP&Si



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

2517GEORGE - 22 Apr 2014 13:34 - 930 of 1965

That's a damning report, I recollect an article that R. Terry was involved in something similar a few years ago, can't remember the details.

Strange on the back of last week's trading annoucement but we've been here before. We need the directors mopping up this surplus stock and I wouldn't be surprised to see a statement before too long with more numbers.

Quindell (LON:QPP) lost more than half its value as short-sellers had a field day on the back of a blog that called up to 80% of the insurance outsourcer’s profits “suspect”.
In a note called ‘Quindell PLC: A Country Club Built On Quicksand’, Gotham City Research claims it cannot work out where around 80% of the group’s reported earnings from 2012 come from.
It says Quindell was little more than a country club until 2008 and “yet somehow began reporting Microsoft/Google-esque profit margins in 2010/11”.
It highlighted that 26-43% of Quindell’s 2009 and 2010 revenues came from clickus4.com, a subsidiary owned by chief executive Rob Terry.
The blog also alleges that nearly all of Terry’s £11mln investment in the business was used to build the country club, not the insurance or software business currently in operation.
In a lengthy disclaimer, Gotham City Research, which is not registered as an investment adviser, warns readers that it “stands to profit in the event the issuer’s stock declines”.
A research note on EBIX caused a similar reaction in June last year, sending the Nasdaq-listed stock down more than 50%. Its shares are yet to recover to the levels seen prior to the note.
Quindell’s own company website crashed as worried shareholders flooded to the site for more information.
The shares crashed to below 20p at one point before recovering to 26.5p, a fall of 32%.
Gotham City has a 3p target price on the stock.

That is surely a crime.

That's AIM!

The Board of Quindell Plc (AIM: QPP.L), is aware of the publication today by Gotham City Research LLC. The Board rejects the assertions raised in this note and considers the note to be highly defamatory, deliberately misrepresentative and entirely rejects the conclusions that are made. A more detailed response shall be announced before the end of this week. In the meantime the Company is also consulting its legal advisors on what immediate action can be taken against Gotham City Research LLC and is reporting coordinated shorting activity to the appropriate authorities.

In the Company's annual results for the year to 31 December 2013, released on 31 March and prepared following the appointment of the Company's auditors, KPMG LLP, Quindell reported revenue of £380.1 million and profit before tax of £107.0 million. Since that time, the Company has released a 2014 Q1 trading statement, which referred to gross sales for the Group totalling £162.9 million and the Group having cash at 31 March of approximately £150 million. The Board remains confident of meeting or exceeding market expectations in all key performance indicators in 2014 and all other initiatives being pursued remain on track.

Gotham appear to be thorough, there are 74 pages of detailed analysis to support their view, confess to not reading it.
