Shea rumoured to be looking at a MBO!
Any buyout would have to be at a higher price than it is currently!

4.75/4.85 up on the bid. Banking sector in general picking up but DAN been left behind.

Started to recover off it's low.

Papers reported this am that there was hope a bid was coming in.

better hurry up before this goes bust......not many customers to keep business going....and analysts are woeful....nothing more than glorified journo.

you up to mischief again scotty

From what I remember their analyst was spot on about silverjet

down again today.....on a rocketing day!
just a tiddly wee company now.

1 good call in a year is hardly time to celebrate.....and thats on talking down something.....can it actually tip a share to do well.....thought not!

SELL

Oh dear and I was just thinking you knew what you were talking about!

the problem with these threads there isn't any true debate about what is going on and what is likely to happen.

A large proportion of silly people coming out with useless statements based on their very limited knowledge.

Still, gives me a good laugh! lol lol lol

down again

joking aside, companies like daniel stewart will really suffer from end of last year until we definitely we are out of bear market and things improve......now no-one really knows as bounce was in end march 3003 i think from last bear market......so its usually at least 6 months before people in media tell the masses. and many people will be burnt and wont rust markets for even longer if ever as like last bear market.
so i dont think daniel stewart will have much business for about next 3 years

down again....little volume too....soon be 1p

now only 2p.........do they have any clients left.......poor advice from analysts too wont give any confidence.

Noticed the Director buying yesterday. Hopefully the rise here will continue especially if they confirm that they have maintained profitability.

Director continuing to buy at 250,000 every seven days so far. I hope he keeps doing so as these shares are tightly held.

Yes I took a punt on these @ 1.47p purely on directors buying.
2517

stonking chart.

Heading upwards today .

A FEW DAYS OF PROFIT TAKING AFTER THE LARGE RISE
I am waiting for a move

I have taking a punt at 1p, larger trades and Level 2 improving was the main reason after today's better trading pattern

Late trade yesterday, maybe the reason for today's opening better
892,605 at 1p - decent sized trade

it takes its time to turn around things but slowly is happening
the last 3 trades are paying higher price 1.03p now the last ones were at 1p

1p +0.05p

Daniel Stewart Securities Plc
Trading and Business Update

The Board of Daniel Stewart Securities Plc (AIM: DAN), the investment bank providing corporate advisory, institutional stockbroking and wealth management services, announces a trading and business update ahead of its full year results for the year ended 31 March 2015.

The Board is pleased to announce that since 30 September 2014, the Company has addressed its regulatory capital requirements; strengthened its balance sheet; and restructured the operational focus of the Company, reducing costs in the process. The Company also took the strategic decision to relinquish its status as an AIM Nominated Adviser ("NOMAD") as the Board believes that the associated costs and additional regulatory burden associated with maintaining NOMAD status do not best serve the interests of our shareholders in today's market environment.

During the period, the Company's shares were suspended from trading between 30 September 2014 and 5 March 2015. The suspension created exceptional circumstances that affected trading in the second half of the reported year. Whilst resolving the capital adequacy issues which led to suspension, the Company also incurred certain non-recurring legal, accountancy and other costs associated with the restructuring. Some clients also delayed their decision to appoint us to new mandates.

As a result of this, the Board anticipates that for the year ended 31 March 2015, the Company will report a reduced pre-tax and amortisation loss of approximately £850,000 (2014: £1.46m loss), of which around £150,000 relates to costs incurred in resolving the regulatory capital issues. Revenue is expected to be around £3.9m (2014: £4.2m).

Peter Shea, Chairman commented: "Although it is always disappointing to report a loss, albeit an improved position from the previous year, we now have our regulatory capital issues firmly behind us and a more focused overhead resulting in a business which is better structured to deliver meaningful capital market solutions to our clients.

"Whilst general market trading conditions remain difficult, we have in the last seven weeks been appointed by six new clients and in the immediate months ahead, we are engaged on a number of fundraisings, including two initial public offerings. Additionally, our wealth management division has continued to grow.

"The Board is optimistic about the future prospects for the Company and I would like to thank the staff, our clients, investors, advisers, and Winterflood Securities, all of whom remained supportive throughout."
