Until it goes to sub-10, I do not see any reason to look at it. I doubt the profits will rise sufficiently in 2012 (over 2011) to merit the current price. On 13 Sep 2012, a profit warning. Enjoy. Surely we expect results not profit warnings. The company sells books for Christ's sake. How can accounts take so long???? COOKS

Was it a fluke? I'd keep off until the H1 2012 results are out to assess the incredible profit rally... I must say I'm shocked that thing counter is still up there. I was expecting a collapse after the IPO, but I guess the little share float is keeping the price a float. However as @VVS says, the ride will be a slow puncture, slow motion bidless fall. $15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

So LKL traded 200 shares at 16.50 & that to me are trades intended to 'set' a price. Stay far away from this counter until it drops to sub-10 levels. Even at 10, I exercise caution. Look at PER, BV, etc before going in. Think Neveready, Sameer/Firestone, etc! Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - *to paraphrase Warren Buffett*

The same one centum that refused to give a profit warning... Those in and for longhorn have really been punked! The 5 year financial statements presented in the IM showed no loss at any one time and displayed dividends in all years. Even H1 2011/12 results in the IM were in profit zone. But i remember we read IM in between the lines and raised red flags. Those who gave a deaf ear may now drown in the loss and no dividend year!
