This is a funny one; now that the results are out, what do investors think? This stock is at mid-recovery level - and yet the company has posted a profit after a 14m loss last year. Some are even predicting with measure that the price will hit 100p in the next 24 months (given fair to good market conditions). Yet, the knee-jerk to results was negative, based on training downturn. But recruitment looks good at PTY.

Any other holders here? Any other views?

Something's happening .. and it's happening right now

....aint got time to wait .....

Checked with Financial Dynamics and they say the new boss is carrying out a strategic review and this gives him more time to sort out the internal changes to turn company back on track

Back on track!! costly or not?

Just a few of my thoughts as a loss making shareholder.
So where next with Parity?
North Atlantic have bought in.
What do they know about the company?
Can Phillip Swinstead turn the company round?
Does he need to find a way to raise capital to turn the company round via banks or a rights issue?
I would be be prepared to put more money into the company to assist any reorganisation.
Is he planning to sell off the loss making training section?
Have the 60 head office staff been sacked?
Are they negotiating a take over deal either by management or an outside deal?
Am I just being silly and Phillip is in the process of sacking a number of middle managers inorder to make it profitable?
All this and more will hopefully be answered the middle of April.

I would like to point out that I dealt with this conpany as a customer and I have never come across such unprofessional and chaos. All talk and no delivery!! How can it maintain its customer base I do not know. While they are perhaps too cheap to short CFD's given its low sales to capitalisation ratio I definitely would not recommend anybody buy them.

If you bought Parity first thing this morning your laughing now. Pity I didn't.

Over 3 bettter than their update three month ago. How much was it then?

looks a long haul but recovery is coming - expecting a relief bounce back towards 10p and on a longer term view I think you you could see very significant gains here. high risk but I will continue to hold.

I suspect we will see an RNS next week after Thursday's activity. Any rumours?

Not much sp movement here, or anywhere - is the co undergoing a major refit, or just dossing down for the winter. I read no rns and so really know nowt. Anyone a customer?

Wow whats going on here ?

Looks good whatever it is...

Kat

Someone brought 31m ('X' trade) 1/2 hour ago which caused the jump in sp, must be confident.

Fri 02 Dec 2005

LONDON (SHARECAST) - IT recruiter and training specialist Parity rocketed today with the shares rising nearly 60% today, though there was no reason given for the sudden surge.

The rally sees Parity recoup much of its recent decline after plunging in September following a warning that heavy restructuring costs and ongoing problems at its struggling training arm. Drove it into the red.

Takeover ???
