no real need for further comment is there as you will not be expounding upon anything that is not already well within the public domain!
However, please carry on if you wish.

OK I agree we can only discuss what's in the public domain or do you have other information ? Now taking your figure of 99%,that means your estimate is 1% of the Numis value for NPV - That's net present value.They calculate 66p / share so your figure is 0.66p / share.At the last set of results they had cash equivalent to 2.5p / share.Surely they cannot be worth less than their cash. Do you need help with your calculations ,they're not difficult you know ?

Nice one, but dont over look that its not their cash, hense my figure.
So how do you calculate your NPV on actual earnings or cash calls.
I really would welcome you calculations.

It's their cash in the same way that any company BP,VOD etc hold cash.Do you need help with the concept.If you're struggling I'll try to find a reference to NPV if you want ?

proteus,
It is impossible to converse with a committed basher, especially one who has no interest in the stock other than to 'hack away'. By doing so you only offer the opportunity for further nugatory dialogue. 10B has little or no knowledge of the markets, doesn't do fundies nor TA. Effectively he feeds off BB posts, copying and pasting to suit, leaping onto whatever bandwagon happens to be rolling by. Best thing you can do is press the squelch button and ignore him.

but thats my very point, and thank you!
You can not compare LFL, a company that earns its money to on who takes it off the shareholders.
Nett earnings offer a track record to work from, cash calls blankett a lot of things
In other words a valuation based upon Cash Calls gives you nothing.

Well said Mt Holden well said, its nice to realise that COH shareholders are blinded to learning anything.
Thats why they were in a state of shock when the price fell, while I was content that it was simply following my predictions.
The day gets better.

You really should all note that the only research that I follow is for value, plain simple, old fashioned intrinsic asset backed value.
Modern day anacronyms and their application mean nothing, absolutly nothing to me.

As far as I remember due to writing off goodwill VOD has not made a profit at one level.You're saying therefore they're worthless.You really need some help ,why don't you ask as a teacher you should know that.Now how about justifying your 0.66p value for the benefit of the readers.

Yes but thats my point, how do put a hard cash value on good will?
Clearly goodwill is one of the most manipulative intangibles in the whole accounting process.
You must have a good earnings yield and this is where I use the ratio of a pre tax operating earnings, or as you would say EBIT to the whole enterprise value which of couse is the SP. I prefer using this ratio to the P/E as that can be manupulated at will.
To me its all rather a simple exercise to find out how much the business is actual worth, ie how much it really earnt in hard nett, relative to the purchase price of the business.
It gets a little more deeper if you wish to delve further. But basically ask your self what did the COH shareholders pay for the business and what return on capital employed are they getting today?---its not a pretty answer using my valuation methods.
But I am not here to gamble,and with the current "flexible" accounting rules and a stagnant FSA, you really need a very shap pencil, if you are of course playing to win.
If you are a gambler then of course that moves the goalposts.

OK,what's it worth with figures if it's a simple exercise why are you so shy in producing them ?

I thought I had.
99% of the Numis guestimate, and thats being kind as there is no tangible asset backing.
COH is currently valued on its forward sales projections and no one here is prepared to take into consideration declining revenues, despite increasing accounts of the impending competition.

proteus - 30 May 2007 14:13 - 947 of 2037
Perhaps you can point to the declining revenues.The latest statement shows LFL growth of 28%.A quick look at VOD shows an EBIT loss of 2.4 bn last year and 14.9 bn the year before.By your logic they're worthless. Did you teach economics I guess not.If that's your logic you shouldn't be risking teachers money on shares.If you're working from flawed analysis you could end up in something like BKE.So is your .66p a complete guess or does it have some figures behind it ?

Kindly read what I say. I did not say there were declining revenues.
What I said was that the prospective LFL sales are on the increase and are the current allbeit flawed basis for the present valuation,
What I clearly said was none that here are considering, or even prepared to consider the impending flow of the new round of competition which will obviously dilute COH's revenue.
You are right on one thing though, I certainly believe that they are worthless for my investment requirements and perhaps that is why EMPIK dumped them.
Who knows?
What I do know is that there is better and safer value elsewhere.
Meanwhile you can play all you like with the figures that COH have provided, without a basis in nett profit they too are worthless, for me at least.

No Sir not in the least its a long term punt, been in since under 7p.
CAN ONLY GO WAY BUT AS YOU KNOW THAT IS NEVER IN A STRAIGHT LINE.
Do yourself a favour old boy, and have a punt you wont regret it.
But then that said, BPK is nicely up from the low 500s.
Thats the Pharma game for you

Post 946 at 2.00pm declining revenues ! 949 2.30 I did not say declining revenues.Also perhaps you should ring the big institutions and tell them VOD is worthless as it has a negative EBIT you could be a hero to all pension fund holders.
Oh dear you didn't invest in BKE did you,didn't you see that they never had a positive EBIT since 2002.Or is EBIT not important,who knows.
