Re: Latest update.. Hiya Except that they raised $27.9m in a share placing during the year so a $20m reduction in debt is not much of a sniff. In fact net debt has risen since H1 year end and during the year on an underlying basis. It is an interesting recovery play though.Good luck
Re: Latest update.. A reduction in net debt of $20m is not to be sniffed at and indicates strength going forward.
Latest update.. "We continue to focus on operational cash generation to allow us to continue to invest in the business, and unaudited net debt as at 13 March 2015 was $12.2 million (compared with $32.2 million as at 30 March 2014).""The transformation of Volex has strengthened our business and our focus on working more closely with key customers is expected to deliver further growth in sales and margins in the coming year."Music to the ears?
Ruffer Group RNS of today reveals that Ruffer has increased its shareholding from 11 to 13%. Over the past few months Credit Suisse has reduced its holding from 13% to 10%. An interim report by the company should be due this month. Interesting times ahead, I feel.
update I/C I see the I/c have reiterated their long term buy on this stock,pointing out the turnaround has taken a wee tad longer than expected ,BUT it is well on the way to profitability,i sure hope so.
