Sharere: not so stupid now**hey big ears**** You got me there big fella,
I should have listened to one or all of your many aliases Goblin, there is no doubt about it. I'd be buying flat out at 23c today if I had. Ah well, thems the breaks. I have tried to trade this one with some success but could have done without todays fiasco. Still, I've been in and out since 8c so perhaps not such a blow. Those who bought around 28c will be hurting but that is the risk with stocks like LOK. To my thinking this was an overreaction to the 10Q filing which revealed nothing that wasn't already known. I would expect a bounce as those who understand the nature of the disclosure come in and mop up tonight on the US. Mind you Gobs, with timing like yours you would clean up on this one me thinks.
regards
Check out what the big money was doing during the fall.

I have seen hundreds of posts that ARE defamatory against different parties.
My conscience is clear; I don't feel any remorse about what I posted. Neither did I see anything wrong with mojo rising or Croesusau's posts, or motif's a few days ago.
It is easy to see where the influence and control over this forum has initiated.
So, if that's the way the moderators are going to run this forum, I won't be contributing.

Sharerogerm, while you've deciphered the good and bad posters, have you also pigeon holed the ones that have fallen in love with the stock and reject any opinion other than the one they want to hear?
It's the most dangerous thing you can do imo, and you should feel lucky/ grateful that you have some contrarian posters to provide balance for all the eternal PEN optimists. But what would I know?
PEN is very tradable, but not out of the woods by a long way imo.- *Removed* this post has been removed from public view

ShareSo you can see both sides of the story matty.
I'm in the same boat having traded PEN from time to time.
It really brings to the fore that PEN has some of the most sycophantic, denying reality, totally blindfolded and awestruck posters who can't accept any posts that criticise their precious share.
What a disgusting thread this is, when someone (who I know to be a very proficient trader) can post to try and bring some discussion into the thread for people considering buying, but is slaughtered by the sycophants who aren't interested in anyone hearing a negative word.
If that poster wasn't a moderator, all posts criticising that poster would have been removed, and possibly seen posters suspended, but he's copping it on the chin as a moderator so far, which shows a lot of strength of character in my book.
Shame on many of you.- *Removed* this post has been removed from public view

ShareAgree seuss.
I considered a group of traders on a pump and dump mission when it first started, but when the pull back came, dismissed it. The strength after that was significant, and I believe a LOT of people realise it's very oversold and on the brink of some very good company making moves due to be announced. Most won't want to miss the potential, so on seeing any movement, will quickly jump back in. That's no pump and dump.- *Removed* this post has been removed from public view
-
ShareI know. Maybe I didn't explain myself very well.
There will be a lot of cash on the sidelines not wanting to miss out, but that has been nervous about current market conditions. Movement in stock price is enough to bring that money back in. Nothing to do with management, just investor psychology imo.

Do you have a 2.7 million deposit for a new home?
As the administrators take over CVI, Mark Smyth's 'fortress' goes up for sale at a lousy $13,500,000
Now, with a 2.7million deposit, and interest rate of 7.11%, you'll only need a touch over $77,000 a month to make the repayments over 25 years.
Feeling sick enough yet?
Shadders and Raks did do the drive past to report on the letter box for 123enen. I remember it well from just after the EGM days.
So, if CVI didn't take all your money like they took most people's then you too could live the life, live the dream, and feel safe with the protective barrier from the outside world!
Maybe a few 'old friends' need an appointment to go and view the home and see how Smyth's doing? Is the dementia well advanced yet? Any house guests? Malcolm Johnson, Anton Tarkanyi, excelsior perhaps?
To make your appointment for Perthites, and just for a sick session for others:

Summary
MCS Security provides security solutions to Perth businesses and homes and is currently looking to expand nationally. MCS recently listed via a “back door” listing via Red Gum (ASX:RGX) by raising $4.5m in order to purchase two security companies, namely MCS Security and Integra Security. The security services are provided to major commercial property sites, retail shopping centres throughout WA, sporting stadiums, special events, mobile patrols and electronic security installation and monitoring.
Key points
MCS Security provides security solutions to Perth businesses and homes and is currently looking to expand nationally. MCS recently listed via a “back door” listing via Red Gum (ASX:RGX) by raising $4.5m in order to purchase two security companies, namely MCS Security and Integra Security.
The security services are provided to major commercial property sites, retail shopping centres throughout WA, sporting stadiums, special events, mobile patrols and electronic security installation and monitoring.
The terms of each job are typically multi-year contracts on a “cost plus” arrangement which works out to be around ~30% GP. This type of contract is lower risk than being contingent on KPI like some other contracting businesses e.g. SPO. The group to date has had an excellent track record of rolling over these multi-year contracts highlighting the focus on providing great service.
Details of the acquisition of the two entities are:
- MCS Security ($12-15m revenue) - $3.78m + 30m shares = $5.28m
- Integra Security ($2-3m revenue) – 18m shares + 6m share (FY16 earnout) = $1.2m
- FY16 earnings are expected to be $1.92m translating to a 3.4x P/E multiple
Initial impressions on Mgt are very positive including their:
- Targeting 50m in revenues in medium term via both organic growth and acquisitions which based on the above P/E multiples would highlight earnings accretion should be pretty easy without even taking into account cost synergies available. The security sector is highly fragmented suggesting a “role up” of the sector is likely.
- Contract wins as highlighted in their recent 14/1/16 announcement, including expansion into other revenue avenues and a strong pipeline of tenders on a national scale. MCS is also looking to expand into Sydney and Melbourne over the next 6 months. This suggests positive catalysts should be announced on a more frequent basis.
- Focus on driving down costs which can be seen by their 14/1/16 announcement highlighting the synergies from the acquisitions having already been realised, changing share registery’s from Computershare to Automatic.
- MCS business has been operating for 10+years with significant amount of prior experiences in the Security industry
- Mgt have retained significant ownership interest @ >20%
- Appointment of Chairmen - Hon. Robert Kucera who has many business connections in WA including Government which should certainly assist in being successful in tendering for new contracts.
- MCS is a high margin business with Net Income margins of ~10% - based on medium term revenue targets of $50m suggests this business could be making $5m within the next 5 years.
- Contracts can be multiyear therefore relatively more reliable earnings stream.
- Net cash position of $2m with a current market cap of $10m suggest EV of $8m on EBITDA (excluding amort’n of intangibles) of ~$2.7m therefore trading on <3x EV/EBITDA
- Payout ratio is expected to be 80% which suggests a yield of >10%
- Excellent thematic with solid industry growth tailwinds including: a) Shift from public sector e.g. police security to private sector security as Government funding comes under pressure – there are many industry studies pointing to this shift accelerating. b) Many insurance contracts for assets, buildings and events require security to be engaged and with the current threats of terrorist attacks, this will only increase the need for security.
As stated above, this is cheap with Market Cap of $10m generating ~$18m in revenue and $1.9m in NPAT suggests a forward P/E of ~5x.
Not factoring in any growth and using a 6x P/E would suggest a valuation of $14m after including the $2m in net cash.
Medium term projection / stretch target based on $50m revenue, 10% NPAT margin and 8x P/E could see a market cap increasing to $40m in 5 years times which is when I think it will get more coverage – note to achieve this target would take M&A so it depends on how deals are structured i.e. debt vs equity therefore shares on issue would grow.
In my opinion this represents a value entry point into a business that has growth potential and therefore a long term horizon should see significant upside.
Risks
Low barriers to entry therefore increases in competition can lead to lower margins – Mgt have yet to see compression in margins – roll up of industry will limit the amount of possible margin contraction.
From my analysis, the $1.9m NPAT is based on adding back the Amort’n of intangibles
Financial Statement and accounting treatment looks questionable i.e. 1H16 writing off Goodwill (2 months after the acquisition) whilst still maintain guidance for $1.9m. Whilst this doesn’t make sense, I understand why this would be done i.e. don’t have to worry about testing for impairment in later periods, ROE looks higher etc.
Nano cap stock therefore won’t get much attention until Mkt cap gets closer to >$50m

Early days and deserves a low P/E until more evidence of synergies are presented and the ability of management to roll up companies into corporate structure.

Good analysis, looks like a low risk entry point at this price level. Might need to wait until they deliver on the East coast expansion plans otherwise definitely one to watch. -

ShareI am guessing that the ASX are giving them grief again, because on page 5 of the presentation, they obviously had the numbers prepared, that were going to be released in time for the AGM. (Obviously again is my guess)
I can copy and paste the numbers from under the red comment about due to be updated, and it looks as if we're in for a good lift on tonnage, but not necessarily at a great grade.
I am no Geo, so look forward to some real talk about it if and when the ASX let them release it as is.
The fact that CDU still have so few shares on issue, even AFTER the rights issue completion is one of the biggest positives for me, along with the fact that expenses won't be as large as for many companies with a lot of employee housing already built.
Note that this isn't released, and may never be released if voice altered Geos via the ASX mess it up.
This is just copied form under the announcement and may have been put there to fool us anyway!

ShareI find that post rather repugnant and cynical cusox.
Right now, imo it's a buy.
What does that have to do with anything else?
Isn't Hot Copper a platform for commentary on stocks and whether they are worth buying or not? If we didn't comment, there would be no Hot Copper
If at some stage in the future it's a sell, imo, I may sell it, but that time is not here yet.
Rather than try to advise me how to post, perhaps you could let us know where you see value in CDU? Do you wait for it to be proven and moving up again?
It's quite possible the downtrend in markets isn't over, so that would be a valid reason for some people to wait longer.
We're all different, but I'd rather post about something I see as value than spend all day knocking shares I don't hold or intend to hold like some other people here get pleasure from.

ShareShadow, that is bull dust, and you know it.
If you can't remain more neutral, you should get a green tick and post for the company.
You simply can't give a value on it without ALL the information.
Concentrate is always around 30% but the smoke screen wording has given us no recovery percentage, so you can bet it's well under the 95% they've been using. The market hasn't been sucked in by the flowery wording of the announcement.- *Removed* this post has been removed from public view

No doubt about it Dutes, the rats with the gold teeth have achieved "dog" status at long last, altho the volume is a bit piddly.
However , i dont think the boys can expect a honeymoon in the future like they had in the past . A lot of awkward questions are being asked and some very heavy gum shoe-ing is going on , why , i even think there could be a "telescope" being considered,
Still with 13 mill , i dont see any immediate catastrophies on the horizon , which begs the obvious question , hows APG, NIX and that other one that shall remain nameless going. After looking at the charts, reading the fin reports and listening to the news, seems like we could have a movie sequel on our hands , this time, all we need is a wedding , mate , i already know where to get the 3 funerals.
Cheers

ShareI get your drift joewolf.
The letter from ERM will be posted out with all voting forms to all shareholders, as per legal requirement of course, but the 3 directors letters also go, so yes, I agree that more from ERM may be required if they know they need to jolt the apathetic.
Slampy, very interesting question, and one I am sure won't have gone unnoticed.
Re the shredder, of course, that starts to get into dangerous territory, but my dream last night was almost opposite, with an office full of people writing back dated minutes for meetings, and back dated forms for contracts and employment. It was a hectic dream, and I hope there's no reality in it at all.

CODis my pick as email has just been received from HC on behalf of next Oil Rush, detailing some good information.
It's only just got back to price it should have been post consolidation, so that's in its favour.
Very little to sell, I like that, as it will move quickly.
