Indeed, thanks chaps.

Woodie, Daniel stewart have put a new buy note out.. their eps figures are different to the company and are over 2p... this p/e rating is too cheap imho

thanks legend

Its ok, it would be interesting to see any directors dealings over next week or so. Plus also shares mag are likely to cover the figures as this was one of their top tips for 2006

Can anyone confirm if todays holding announcement is buy/sell or part thereof ?

ian they brought shares over a few days after the results
TG21 PLC ('the Company')

Holdings(s)in Company


The Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has today notified the Company that it has a
notifiable interest in the ordinary share capital of the Company amounting to
5,192,344 ordinary shares representing 6.36% of the current issued share
capital.

That seems like a positive sign guys. A push past 13p on the cards?

queen very positive

TGP are pushing up again and are on the verge of a breakout...hopefully Goldman Sachs are still in the market and increasing their stake.

Just to summarise:

1) Nice uptrend being established now from the lows
(2) Goldman Sachs have just bought 6.36% of TGP (5.2m shares). I wonder why?
(3) TGP are on a historic P/E of only 6 based on the true adjusted EPS of 2.16p
(4) TGP are on a current year P/E of 5.4 based on 2.38p EPS
(5) TGP are on a forward P/E of 4.8 based on 2.71p EPS
(6) TGP are on a PEG of just 0.54

Enough said.

Seems to me there's only one way for TGP to go (and that's upwards!).

Yep ! looking good ! onwards and upwards !

its looking good ,what is annoying, is shares mag when they tipped it as a play for 2006 i thought they would cover the stock, all there was on the results was just a 1 line piece on the results.

I am not in these but to those that hold,this stock has been tipped again as a strong buy from thewrongrpice.com,and confirms yours posts thjat the shares have a long way to go.good luck

capetown thanks for info

Woodie... agree with your view re: shares mag. they have a habit of not fully following up on thier tips, particularly when they go belly-up... however, I think with TGP they will have to do a major update soon as they are looking strong. the case for continuing to recommend this as a buy is too compelling to ignore ! (imho)

.

Woodie, skyhigh... there could be coverage tomorrow am as shares mag tend to review the top tips every quarter and with this being the first week in april, I wouldn't be surprised to see something in tomorrow's issue.

I initially thought that because the company was quite discreet about reporting the results (i.e. no notice of results/trading statement), shares mag may have missed them, but i am sure that they know the company has reported it's finals.

ALL IMHO

Halfords issued a trading statement today with excellent news for TGP, i.e most of Halfords' growth coming via in-car entertainment:

http://www.citywire.co.uk/News/NewsArticle.aspx?VersionID=81353&MenuKey=News.Home

"Motorists are getting on their bikes and going to Halfords which lifted sales 8.4% in the year to 31 March, according to a trading statement.

Ian McLeod, chief executive of the leisure, cycling and automotive products retailer, expects profit before tax to be around 77 million, in line with analysts expectations.

Like-for-like sales for the year rose 6.1% as motorists invested in their vehicles, much of it in what Halfords calls the fast-growing in-car technology sector which includes DVD and sound systems."

This is TGP's in-car multi-media web page FYI:

Tipped by thewrongprice.com too:

"03/04/2006 Buy 13p 3,047.96
TG21 (formerly Toad Group)
TG21 (formerly Toad Group) - Buy - 13p

Since our last update Toad Group has undergone a few changes. It moved to AIM in April last year. One month later, it adopted the name TG21, reflecting its increasing stake in 21st Century Crime Prevention Services which supplies closed circuit television (CCTV) and black box recording systems for use on buses and trains.

By the end of the year, TG21 had acquired 75 per cent of 21st Century, having paid 4.9 million, and it has retained an option to acquire the remaining 25 per cent for 2.1 million.

The groups increasing interest in 21st Century is part of its strategy to focus its business on high growth sectors. Today, its principal activities in are public transport CCTV, mobile phone hands-free installations, insurance replacement of stolen in-car entertainment (ICE) systems, as well as car and motorcycle security and accessory products. According to house broker Daniel Stewart Securities, new investments in 21st Century and Datatool (TG21s motorcycle security and accessories business) should lead to a step up in profitability in 2007.

Last year, the group produced a pre-tax profit of 1.8 million (2004: 767,000) on revenues of 36.3 million (2004: 34.6 million). This translated to adjusted earnings per share of 2.1p. For this year, Daniel Stewart expects EPS to come in at 2.4p, rising to 2.7p in 2007.

At 13p each, the shares currently trade at around 5.5 times and 4.8 times 2006s and 2007s estimated earnings, yet earnings growth this year and next is forecast at 11.7 per cent and 13.9 per cent. Although investors who got in at our original recommendation in March 2003 are already sitting on a 160 per cent profit, we think the shares are worth buying at their current level."

Riva, thanks for this... looks good for the next 12-18months. I'd be happy with 160% increase from here... bring it on !

So why's it gone down again today then? :-(
