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!

halifax .... the market is foward looking and with the rate of growth and aquisition then last years results are of little importance in placing a current value on the shares.

COMS PLC will remain a top performing share for 2014 -
Last Friday, the Cloud telephony company revealed its plans to acquire some subsidiaries of Actimax Acquisitions Ltd. for a sum total of £2.4 million. Additionally, COMS may pay another £1 million after 13 months of the acquisition if revenues of a minimum of £7.6 million are achieved subsequent to the acquisition. The company also announced that it had raised about £8.3 million to partly fund the said acquisition by placing its 138.3 million shares at £6 a share.
Actimax is Basildon-based company whose business relates to the provision of data, network and communication services provider generated £10.5 million even though it suffered pre-tax losses of about £760,000. This acquisition is indeed very good news for COMS as its integration with Actimax’s infrastructure could help expand its business in a major way. According to the Coms PLC statement, it expects to derive benefits to the tune of £3 million a year in the medium term horizon by integrating Actimax infrastructure with its own.
Moreover, COMS announced a few back that it had won over £715,000 of new contracts over the course of the past few weeks that included cabling work at Kings Cross and another important energy sector contract renewal. It’s also won 4 contracts with broadcasters valued at over £50,000 in addition to ten other marketing contracts valued to be £100,000.
COMS PLC Analyst Forecast
(LON:COMS) COMS PLC has been one of LSE’s top performing shares for 2013 and its full-year revenues are expected to be well ahead of market expectations of account of the growing demand for its cloud-based telephony services. The company has also experienced significant growth in organic revenues coupled with its outperforming subsidiaries that include Communica Holdings. COMS shares shot up by over 900% in 2013 following a major contract win with the outsourcing firm MITIE.
Going by the most recent updates, it seems very possible that COMS PLC will remain a top performing share for 2014 as well. Even at its current valuation, the stock is a very attractive bet for medium-term and long-term investors.
