Dis-parity? (PTY)     

pd1000 - 18 Sep 2004 09:25

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?

Anyone still in - not for the faint-hearted but quite a big upside here - even now, with a bid required to be made by 3 March 2006.

Happy Camping!

pd1000 I just don't get this share - after much falling I bought at 7.5 pence (for recovery) but quite soon the market was to learn of a 50:1 consolidation - so my shares should be worth the same, only fewer in number.
However, they are now worth 50p-ish which is far off ( 7.5 x 50=3.75) - so what has happened?
How could the value slip so badly. eh?

Do I have vague memories of some debt-for-equity deal? so punters pay for the Bank's mistakes? Is there a chance the sp can rise to where it should be or is this a closed book? At present price, it's hardly worth selling.

Wow - nearly a year later and we are still looking at 65p-ish to sell(70p to Buy)....so the fall was indeed real and I've been suckered-in...Oh double dear!
Won't be long and the brokers will be fiddling with the shares again....maybe 10:1 to bring them to the 10p region.....Grr!

Debt for equity I suspected, but still no comments?

Bit of a coup, or short-term fix?
Selling the training group has raised 4.7m - yet the Mkt Cap is just 8m, so does that mean half the sp is supported by cash - or am I staring into an abys - an earlier black-hole?

This needs to do a lot before it is worth the price when CONsolidated, as I recall... Anyone fill-in current news etc. I hold from CONsolidation - see earlier post the shares need to grow to 3.75 - that's some rise, is it ever possible?

Those looking for 10-baggers....take note!

EDIT-(6Nov08)-up 12% on just 5k-worth of Buys (no sells), as we expect from MM's, eh?, ( 12p -today)
