Well, It all looks good to me ......I'm sure it's onwards and upwards from here on imho :

Highlights:

Turnover up 135% to 64.1m (2004 - 27.3m)

Gross profit up 48% to 15.0m (2004 - 10.1m)

Reduced loss after tax and minority interests of 1.3m (2004 - 4.5m)

Cost base reduction initiatives implemented in September 2005 resulted
in significant savings - the annualised rate for the cost base is now 30.8m
(49m post merger) and it will reduce further to 29m by Q4 2005/6

Further efficiencies will reduce the cost base to below 28m from Q1 2006/7

Administrative staff headcount reduced from 509 on merger to 364 at
November 2005

The group is on course for operating profitability for Q3 2005/6

7.3m cash - group operating cash flow has been positive since September 2005

73 new applications in membership to join Millfield Partnership

53 new applications in membership for Sage Financial Services

Implementation of minimum standards throughout MPL national branch network

Relocation of IT operations centre to London Docklands plus switching
all locations to Telstra, the AAA rated carrier, as a single telecoms
supplier

Market cap rather at a bit of discount wouldnt you say???

skyhigh - 01 Dec 2005 09:12 - 26 of 49

Katcenka.. Not sure what you're indicating...not sure how it all works myself but ,,, are you suggesting that the sp is cheap compared to mkt cap and that the sp will strengthen ?

katcenka - 01 Dec 2005 09:16 - 27 of 49

err!!! YES!!!!. I am suprised of the little amount of activity.. the way I see it, these should be at least 50p. if not more, additional cost cutting also.. could put these at 70p quite easily

Crazyfrog - 01 Dec 2005 09:25 - 28 of 49

bloody cheap.. I am IN!!!!

katcenka - 01 Dec 2005 09:31 - 29 of 49

delayed buys.. its going to go up a lot more me thinks

skyhigh - 01 Dec 2005 09:40 - 30 of 49

Cool ! .. all sounds good... glad my initial impression is in line with everyone elses views..
I think the mms will put sp up in an orderly manner.
With favourable press reviews and perhaps even new yr tips for 2006 this should go alot higher.imho Hurray! (at last!)

katcenka - 01 Dec 2005 09:51 - 31 of 49

Broker upgrade ;-) should be issued... looks like only three of us in this one.. more cheap pickings for us then ;-)

katcenka - 01 Dec 2005 10:33 - 32 of 49

Turnover up 135% to 64.1m (2004 - 27.3m)

Gross profit up 48% to 15.0m (2004 - 10.1m)

Reduced loss after tax and minority interests of 1.3m (2004 - 4.5m)

katcenka - 01 Dec 2005 11:06 - 33 of 49

I also hold these - though not a massive amount. Does anyone think they are going to get back to the level they were at in March? I am very encouraged by the recent movement but there is still a long way to go before I make any money.
