An escrow price freeze ? This is a strange development NCC Group. They typically shunt their prices up by between 7-10% annually & have done so for the last 5 or years - it a big piece of the growth story - and there aren't many businesses that could get away with it for so long. There has never really been focussed competitor in this arena, it so niche. However now I'm questioning their motives. If there's an accelerating termination rate in this business; its very bad news. Escrow is the profit engine of this outfit, but the division is very vulnerable to a low cost offer. They are also trying to hire an MD for the division. I was on at £2.50, & saw more upside until this seeped out, pleased to sell at £4.00 and look elsewhere.
Yoda, That's a nice posting and I totally agree. This company was tipped in the FT a couple of weeks ago prior to the results. It looks like a good prospect.
