Malcy’s blog PPC… Still falling 4.5p now.
Burke Advisors Just received a (scam) foreign telephone call from the above mentioned Burke Advisor claiming they were acting on behalf of a wealthy client who had already acquired 43% of the company and wanted to buy my shares in PPC for between £6 and £12. Beware of these charlatans!
Malcy’s blog PPC… XXXXX Argentina ( trouble there again with currency , plus other news in RNS ) 20% fall today now 5p .
Malcy’s blog Missed it last month right idea ( G ) likes it today @ 8p
Presidential Price spike Anyone heard any reasons behind the price spike earlier this week? I haven’t seen anything that could have caused it. Perhaps just a recognition that the price is way too low given their growth profile vs their MC. DB
Malcy’s blog PPC… XXXX Back to new recent lows today trades @ 6.7p
Malcy’s blog Disappointing result to the rights offer. They only raised two thirds of what they wanted. One annoying thing from my perspective was that HBOS wanted responses days before the deadline so I missed it. So bought some in the market instead. I feel sure they will come back cap in hand next year, but first let’s see the 50% growth this year that is promised even before the fund raise. DB
Malcy’s blog PPC… XXXX This bounced up from slightly higher level then today, to about 10p after I last looked , back down to below October 2018 price now @ 7.6p
Ops update More good news today as PPC progresses it’s portfolio of Argentinian assets. As the company is operating in a benign Argentinian market it seems to be at least a little shielded from the ups and downs of the oil business. TP
Latest loans Investors Chronicle tipped them June 7, 2018 at 9.2p due to the newsflow from Puesto Flores and growing scale of operations. Previously they had them a sell in March @11.9p.
Latest loans You are absolutely right - or better even not have bought them in the first place - I have to eat some humble pie here - I was not aware that the had fallen so low in the recent past and have now recovered. Well done with your timing.
Latest loans Well, Ian, we all have different strategies. I bought most of my shares in PPC at around 6p about a year or so ago. Some before that at 9p. I’m not complaining as I’m sitting on a healthy profit. The business is growing steadily from recovery mode ( when I got in) tocash generative (now). Can’t speak for those who’ve been in for years and probably should’ve got out long ago if they paid 70p. Best of luck to all. TP
Latest loans The last time I saw them tipped was in 2011/12 - if you are happy with a 87% loss over 8 years and investing into a fallen oil price - then good luck. I am very confused as to what it is they are delivering? 8 years no dividends and no profits - what is your investment strategy? Are you shorting them?
Latest loans Levine loan is the same rate as the bank facility. Hardly a surprise that he wants to make money from his investment - he owns c.30% of PPC. As for the 70p SP, that was in 2011! That’s a lifetime ago for small exploration companies. Of course it’s a risky investment, but I’m reassured by the regular updates and direction of travel. As The Prior says, it’s cash generative and not “unprofitableâ€. The £107m market cap. is starting to look too low for the 2019 earnings outlook. I’m holding as long as they continue to deliver and BTW the FD also bought in earlier this year - £29k. Looks promising to me.
Latest loans Then where is this cash going - Have you seen any? They raise cash through rights issues and then the share price falls. If you have been foolhardy enough to average down then you will have even bigger losses - it has yet to move above the last right issue price for more than a few days. It is certainly not paying dividends. Perhaps this cash is going to pay salaries and high interest rates on loans?
