Omg . shock , horror .... COMS fails to crash and burn after placing !!!

Slick bit of timing? Release a 'Good News' RNS at the same time as the placing hits the market?

Anyone who was worried had the opportunity of selling out at a higher price this morning than it closed Friday.

My gut instinct was to buy more first thing. Pity I didn't follow it! :o(

Thats a monday morning blip...... you haven't missed anything kim.,.

I agree with that. Might see the sp drift a little as all the relevant news is now out and nothing immediate on the horizon to attract investors. Sold some of my holding this morning and hoping to buy back in a week or two.

What about the trading update HARRYCAT, which is due out "within the first few weeks of February"? :-)

I am assuming that the update will tell us pretty much what we already know and is just to comply with regulations. I may be wrong, but that is what I have based my strategy on. I have kept a third of my original holding, just in case I turn out to be wrong!

I wonder if the TU will give figures I.e. Sales rev approximation, Making profit etc. We might have to wait a few mths for the actuals

I think the company said the "actuals" would be released "within the first few weeks of February" robstuff.

Taken from another bulletin board, posted on 9th February at 11.30pm - the 'care in the community' scheme is obviously not working too well.

"turd boy:

I have a buy order set for 5.5p.

by the time it is filled your profit would have been pissed away as you are to dumb to have sold.

Good night."

last accounts showed a net loss of £119k they will have to run very hard to justify a market cap of £73m, admin costs constantly increasing and appear excessive. their year end is 31st January so don't expect results any time soon.

halifax - just in case you missed this RNS;

Trading Update
Coms plc (AIM: COMS) is pleased to issue the following trading update ahead of the Company's 2013/14 year end.

The company is pleased to state the following:-

· Revenues for the year will be significantly ahead of management expectations driven by significant growth in organic revenues as well as outperformance within Coms' acquired subsidiaries.
· EBITDA for the year will be positive.

The company anticipates giving a further trading update within the first few weeks of February once more accurate numbers are known.
Dave Breith, CEO of Coms, commented: "I am delighted with the successful turnaround we have managed to implement at Coms in the last year. The speed of integration and performance of the businesses we have acquired has been beyond our expectations and our recently announced contract wins give us great confidence that we can continue our growth going into the new financial year. "

doodle you know as well as we do that revenues are different to profits.at their half year to 31st july 2013 revenues were up 249% yet they still made a net loss, don't hold your breath!

We both know halifax that share prices are not driven simply by numbers on a balance sheet.

doodle we are not talking about their balance sheet (which is pretty small) we are talking about their profit and loss statement.

We also know that share prices are not driven simply by profit and loss statements halifax! Have another try:-)

doodle if you believe that you are somewhat misguided, profit is the name of the game!

halifax, if I just bought shares based simply on balance sheets and figures I would never have bought into a company like Thomas Cook - just for one example. The TCG debt was massive when Harriet Green took over as CEO and look how she has turned that company around. "Profit is the name of the game" - that part of your post I totally agree with and I'm only interested in the profit going into my bank account!
