Hope your still holding gf... price held up very well... hopefully we will have eps of 2p end of year, if so p/e is really low.

Can't believe how none of financial press haven't pushed these. Looks like seller has gone... price moved up on small volume..

Carnbeg - 13 Sep 2005 16:42 - 97 of 223

Just reduced my losses by 250 today what's going on at TGP?

WOODIE - 13 Sep 2005 16:51 - 98 of 223

my guess there is news on the way when the mms reduce the spread they want stock from the weak to sell on at a higher price. might be wrong

WOODIE - 14 Sep 2005 07:10 - 99 of 223

Here's the intro to Daniel Sstewart's Buy note above (which is a fine 12 pager):

"The recent H105 results showed an increase in net profit of 10% although turnover declined by 1.9m (10%) y-o-y from 18.1m to 16.2m. This sales figure did not include sales generated by the Groups 49% associate company, 21st Century. This investment contributed 144k post amortisation to total operating profit, which was up 19% (from 977k to 1.17m) and helped push net profit from 739k to 810k; o Interest payable increased marginally y-o-y from 232k to 253k reflecting a 0.5m increase in net debt to 3.9m. This relatively small increase in net debt was after taking into account the 2.6m acquisition cost of 21st Century. Basic EPS (post goodwill amortisation) rose 5% from 0.94p to 0.99p with fully diluted clean EPS (pre amortisation) rising 7% from 1.08p to 1.16p. 95% of operating profits was converted into operating cash flow of 1.1m (1.0m in prior year) and gearing reduced from 54% to 46% on net assets of 8.5m. Net assets per share of 10.4p underpin the current valuation; o TG21 has successfully carved a niche for itself, moving the businessfrom the sale of high specification car security systems to providingbusiness solutions to numerous blue chip customers in the automotive,public transport, cellular and insurance markets. Today, amongst itsother revenue streams, the business is recognised as a leading UKinstaller of mobile phone car kits and one of the UKs largest audio andmulti-media wholesale businesses;

o Management has reacted swiftly to the slowdown in its more maturemarkets (e.g. car audio insurance replacement and car security) bymoving the company into growth areas and securing exclusivedistribution agreements for the Inforad speed camera warning systemand Tom-Tom motor-cycle navigation units along with distributionrights for the Tom-Tom car navigation products;

o We expect good growth from the 21st Century acquisition (installationof CCTV on public transport), driven by the governments desire toimprove security and encourage car users onto the public transportsystem, with local transport authorities and operators likely to beattracted by the associated reduction in crime and insurance costs. Amore sombre, but nevertheless valid, source of growth may follow theterrorist attacks on the London public transport system;

o The recent move to AIM will lower the cost and burden of futureacquisitions. The current capitalisation of the company fits AIM morethan the Full List, and we would, therefore, expect the shares to benefitfrom investor focus. We forecast fdw EPS of 2.22p in 2005 and 2.62p in2006, putting the stock on a conservative 4.5x and 3.8x earnings respectively."

Bought in today on afternoon dip. These will be 20p. Mark these words....

rivaldo55555 - 18 Sep 2005 07:50 - 101 of 223

Agreed wraz. This is the link to Daniel Stewart's 12 page Buy note:

http://www.saturninnovation.co.uk/clients/dsc/CMS/nmanagerpro/attachments/TGP_initiation_130905.pdf

The EPS estimates are:
12/05 eps 2.22p EBITDA 3.2m
12/05 eps 2.62p EBITDA 4.2m

TGP have already achieved 1.16p EPS in H1, i.e more than half of the estimate for the year already. At 10.5p TGP are on a current year P/E of just 4.7, with around 10p per share of net assets as downside protection. And the company has stated that current trading is in line with expectations.

TGP have also ramped up their investment in 21stCentury, presumably on the basis of something in the wind. Any contract news in this CCTV division should send the shares flying imo.

legend290782 - 18 Sep 2005 20:55 - 102 of 223

Welcome aboard rivaldo... the right people are in this stock. Buyers around at close on friday.

Good luck....

rivaldo55555 - 19 Sep 2005 09:00 - 103 of 223

Ta legend. More buying early today I see.

The potential from 21st Century in particular is enormous. This is from Ashurst's (TG21's lawyers) web site:

"21st Century is one of the UK's fastest growing suppliers of specialist CCTV security systems for public transport vehicles, and is the preferred supplier to Arriva plc with whom it has developed a bespoke system. Arriva plc has an annual turnover exceeding 1.6 billion and rail and bus operations in eight European countries comprising over 10,000 vehicles.

Turnover for 21st Century in the last financial year was 2.9 million, up from 1.8 million in the previous year, and its net assets are currently 350,000."

If you link that with this recently from the Times and consider that 21st Century have an enviable reference point from their work with Arriva....

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspaper/0,,172-1779505,00.html
"Mr Livingstone also said that it would be difficult to install airport-style security on the Underground. For every person who goes through Heathrow, 15 will go through the Tube, he said. There isnt physically the space for the equipment. It would also mean huge tailbacks and would mean a dramatic change in the time people take for a journey.

He said that there would be be 100 per cent closed-circuit television coverage on London buses by the end of the year on both upper and lower decks, compared with the present 95 per cent coverage. He added that he would double the number of CCTV cameras on the Underground within the next five years."

WOODIE - 19 Sep 2005 09:50 - 104 of 223

once this breaks out from current trading range this will fly

legend290782 - 19 Sep 2005 13:20 - 105 of 223

Totally agree woodie, sp underpinned by 10.5p assets... did you read the bullish research note mate??

market maker to market maker transaction for a quarter of mill earlier - this is good to see imho.

WOODIE - 19 Sep 2005 15:24 - 106 of 223

Still in this one Legend. I feel all at once they will take off. Nice to be back.

cheers GF.

wraz - 19 Sep 2005 23:46 - 109 of 223

Mee too goldfinger. I bought with a 20p price target in mind. I think newsflow/coverage will only be positive from here on.

I have followed legend into a few stocks, he certainly knows how to pick the right ones given time. This is no exception.

goldfinger - 20 Sep 2005 02:05 - 110 of 223

Im sure your right.

cheers GF.

rivaldo55555 - 20 Sep 2005 08:54 - 111 of 223

75,000 share MM buy at 11p :o))

Shortage of stock around now?

legend290782 - 20 Sep 2005 13:06 - 112 of 223

These going as planned, we should have some financial press coverage soon i think... i really like to see mm transactions - this indicates orders that need to be filled....

i love seeing buying activity and mms short of stock!!!! It means they have to get stock back to balance their book!!

rivaldo55555 - 22 Sep 2005 11:43 - 113 of 223

The spread is incredibly narrow today. You can sell at 11.1p, i.e just below the midprice, and buy at 11.19p. This indicates there's plenty of demand for TGP stock in the market at present - and why not on a current year P/E of around 5 :o))

legend290782 - 22 Sep 2005 13:14 - 114 of 223

Rivaldo, only evos on 11.5 offer now... looking good.

ramu - 18 Oct 2005 10:42 - 115 of 223

This BB has gone all quiet and the SP is down. Legend, are you still in?
