TALK Spain Fund 17 Nov 2015

Societe Generale downgrade Reason for fall?. Should stay away but bought at 232 for short flutter. Profit to date £919. I may just leave that amount in shares so let it run as 'free' money?SocGen hangs up on TalkTalk as it highlights deteriorating fundamentalsMichele MaatoukDate: Tuesday 17 Nov 2015LONDON (ShareCast) - (ShareCast News) - Societe Generale downgraded TalkTalk to 'sell' from 'hold' and slashed its price target to 190p from 320p."Of course the cyber attack on 21 October was awful news. But more of a concern to us is how quickly TalkTalk fundamentals seem to have been deteriorating even before the attack hit," the bank said.SocGen said it's pencilling in a tough second half as the company fights to save subscribers. In addition, the bank is concerned there will be little improvement into full year 2017 as weak gross adds and churn, low pricing power and sliding gross margins offset savings benefits."We assume a slow recovery at best, rising debt and a halved dividend."It said the greatest surprise from TalkTalk's first half results was just how weak the underlying business is performing.Even with savings, the bank has EBITDA down another 12% next year, leading to low medium-term margins and high debt, which could keep rising on its estimates unless the dividend is cut.The bank cut its full year 2016 dividend estimate by 50% to 8p per share and downgraded its earnings per share estimates for 2016 and 2017 by 53% and 83% respectively.At 0943 GMT, TalkTalk shares were down 1.4% to 238.60p.

Re: T/o It is neither, as the deal appears to be of the all share variety. Perhaps somebody can explain it in plain English.The only cash is the 3p special divi which the shareholders would have received as an ordinary divi in any case.

poor results rather poor overall - the fact they are still writing down the estate as the economy picks up is suspicious so probably there were a few hundred mil that should have been written off aged ago - the bond refinancing was an especially bad piece of business whatever stories management spi

T/o Salutations to all holders. But is it 78.04+3=81.04p mentioned last night, or 86.82p as mentioned this morning? A significant difference.

RYA Doggedly persevering 17 Nov 2015

I'm a bit lost. Please help! I used to have one Ryanair holding in my iii portfolio, but now I have four and the value of my original shares seem to have plummeted. I know there is some share split, cash return and money raising thing going on - as well as results being due on Thursday?Can any of you out there explain what is going on?

HLMA Rhigos 17 Nov 2015

Re: Uncharted heights Agreed Hardboy, excellent results and progressivly rising dividends. I have been topping up since first purchasing in Sep 2014 since purchased 3 more times last on 3 Nov. Very pleasing to see over 6% rise today.

Re: What is happening I was surprised we didn't get a trading update in September, but we should be due results soon. My main fear is that they will need to raise funds to invest in the Solvay Accoya plant in Freiburg, Germany, and the proposed new Tricoya plant.
