Fleeta said:New high yesterday TJ - hope you are still into this one.
Got above 80c as predicted by me in earlier posts. Now what do I do...sit on it?
TjamesX said:There is obviuously some anticipation leading up to half yearly report. They should be releasing this in the next week or so.
From a fundamental perspective I am thinking it will be a pretty good result. Perth has been going nuts in both residential construction and mining over the last 12 months - PCH has been in the perfect position to take advantage of this.
TjamesX said:Sorry Guys - didn't give you enough time to digest, half yearly report has been released!!!!
Hope you held on fleeta:
Just a few highlights;
- revenue up 70%
- profit up 121%
- announced maiden interium div of 0.75c
- basic EPS of 7.1 cents for the half!! (way above what I was expecting)
Note that half yearly EPS is greater than for the entire previous year!! It should be noted that this has been benefited by some accounting changes (income tax benefits and provisions) these will not be repreated to the same extent in future reports. However the change in income tax assesment is material and will be beneficial to ongoing income.
I would expect 2nd half EPS to be below 7.1 cents due to one off benefits not occuring and some contracts coming off stream in early 2006. A conservative 4 cents in the 2nd half will give us 11 cents for the year which essentially means any price less than $1.10 will be trading below a PE of 10.
Net Profit for the half year of $11.4 million was well above analysts expectations. Pattersons had a buy recommnedation assuming net profit for the 06 year to be forecast at $11.4mill, PCH have achieved this profit in the first half.
Market reaction;
Share price up 13% to 97 cents
Sell side depth is barron to say the least
