Hi Dudde,

auch noch investiert?

Wird aber noch eine Weile dauern, bis der Markt das Ergebnis in steigende Kurse umsetzt, aber wir wissen schon jetzt, dass das neue Management es wieder einmal geschafft hat!

ww

[danke_fuer_aIIes]

Das ist ein gigantischer Turnaround! Man muß sich das mal überlegen: Von 10Mio A$ Miesen im Vergleichshalbjahr auf einen operativen Gewinn - und das INNERHALB EINES JAHRES!

Wir werden bei Deakin, wenn diese Entwicklung nur ansatzweise weitergeht, einen noch deutlicheren Gewinn im 2. Halbjahr erwarten können. Was das bei einer lächerlichen Marktkapitalisierung von etwa 8Mio A$ bedeutet, kann sich jeder an einer Hand abzählen:

DER KURS WIRD SICH VERVIELFACHEN!

[Dudde]

Grüß Dich weitweg - ich bin und bleibe investiert - und Zeit habe ich auch - ich bleibe auf meinen 10.000 Aktien hocken

Gruß von Dudde

Das Ergebnis des vergangenen Halbjahres war minus 8 Mio AUD, jetzt plus 177,000 nach Steuer.

Der Umsatz im Kerngeschäft ist um 31% gegenüber dem Vergleichshalbjahr gestiegen, laut info aus Australien hat der Chairman weiteres starkes Wachstum angekündigt.

Eine Meinung aus Australien. Hört sich für mich so an, als stünde eine Neubewertung der Aktie bevor!

The DKN results for the half year announced today confirms the commencement of the companies ability to turnaround the ghosts of the past.

Having fallen from highs of $2.00 the company begun a change in management and board, that viewing the results today seems to be on track for better days again.

The result has seen the losses of $8 million in the same half last year turned in to a profit of 177,000 after tax and amortization.

The core business revenue has increased by 31% from the corresponding period and from the chairmans report is expected to see strong growth in the next half.

The DKN chart looks good with the downtrend broken at 15c ,the consolidation between 18-20 seeing good volumes,with the next resistance line on the chart being towards the 30c price where it was last February through to July.

As the population ages ,the baby boomers are going to need the advice of more and more financial advisors that are not linked in to one company.

[danke_fuer_aIIes]

Deakin zieht langsam an. In Stuttgart jetzt schon 0,13G.

Dies ist aber erst der Anfang. Deakin steht vor einer Neubewertung. Ich würde micht wundern, wenn bereits morgen in Australien die Post abgeht!

[weitweg]

Hier noch einmal die Zusammenfassung des Chairman: Ein sehr positiver Ausblick.

Die Aktie schließt in Australien dennoch negativ. Offenbar gibt es noch etliche Investoren, die beim leisesten Anzeichen von Nachfrage froh sind, heraus zu kommen.

HOMEX - Melbourne

+++++++++++++++++++++++++
Deakin Financial Services Group Limited is pleased to announce its
interim results for the half-year ended 31 December 2001.

As foreshadowed in the 2001 Annual Report, the Company has staged a
significant turnaround in performance. The net profit after tax was
$176,000. This compares with a loss in the corresponding period of
the previous year of $8.8 million.

This remarkable improvement has been due to the elimination of non
core activities and the development of the core business of financial
services distribution. There were no write-downs or unusual losses in
the period, indicating that the process of consolidating the business
is now complete.

During the period, additional shares with a value of $968,000 were
issued thus underpinning the capital position of the Company.

As approved at the 2001 Annual General Meeting, $398,000 of new
capital was issued in settlement of a long-term liability of $600,000
thereby making a gain to the Company of $202,000 and preserving
valuable cash resources.

A further $495,000 cash, was raised following the placement of
3,300,000 additional shares, thus greatly improving the working
capital of the company.

From an operational perspective, the financial services distribution
revenue has grown by 31% to $4.9 million. The loss of $38,370 from
this core business compares with a loss in the previous corresponding
period of $226,648. This loss reflects the July - August period when
changes in the structure were not yet complete.

Results for the now discontinued property segment show a profit of
$226,674. This can in the main be attributed to gains from the sale
of the Western Australian rent roll and to adjustments in prior year
accruals for commissions receivable and payable.

The Company has, during the last six months, successfully negotiated
the establishment of strategic alliances, which will enable the
provision of services in the areas of direct property investment,
stockbroking, general insurance and finance broking without the need
for direct equity investment. These alliances will in the future
become an important source of fee income for the Deakin Group.

As mentioned previously expansion into New South Wales and Queensland
is a strategy, which is vital to the long-term future of the Deakin

for direct equity investment. These alliances will in the future
become an important source of fee income for the Deakin Group.

As mentioned previously expansion into New South Wales and Queensland
is a strategy, which is vital to the long-term future of the Deakin
Group. The Board is committed to this strategy and is continuing to
explore commercially prudent opportunities.

Funds under advice include $140 million invested in the Deakin
badged master fund, Personal Choice, and a further $160 million
invested in other master funds. These figures do not include a much
larger, but unquantifiable, sum invested in life company bonds and
investment funds.

Future growth in the business is expected to flow from the
substantial databases of clients who have acquired life insurance and
other products over many years. These databases are available to
Deakin through the 120 contracted representatives and approximately
200 life agents associated with Deakin.

There is considerable potential for growth in profits in future as
the Company has, on January 1, 2002, signed its representatives to
new contracts, which will result in greater efficiency and security
of relationships. Deakin is well positioned as a listed financial
services distributor. As the industry consolidates under the new
Australian Financial Services Reform Act 2001, we anticipate there
will be many financial services representatives who will seek to join
a group such as Deakin, which is independent of the suppliers of
financial products. We also believe many consumers will prefer to
purchase financial services from advisers who are independent.

Man beachte, daß heute über 600.000(!) Optionen gehandelt wurden. Da deckt sich jemand ganz groß ein. Die Optionen haben einen Basispreis von 0,30A$ und laufen im Juni aus.

Da ist jemand (genau wie ich) felsenfest überzeugt, daß sich bei Deakin in den nächsten Wochen was tun wir.

[queenbee]

Hallo Leute,

bin auch noch dick investiert und bleibe es. Ihr müsst aber ein wenig Geduld haben, bis der Markt die positive Entwicklung honoriert. In Australien nutzen viele frustrierte Kleinanleger das neue Kaufinteresse zum Ausstieg. Sicher werden bald Brokerhäuser auf DKN aufmerksam, der Markt für Finanzdienstleister in Aastralien ist heiss und DKN wird daher mit beobachtet.

qb

[danke_fuer_aIIes]

@queenbee: Und die Geduld wird sich bezahlt machen! Bis zur ersten Empfehlung ist es nur noch eine Frage der Zeit.

Deakin heute +11% bei steigenden Umsätzen!

[Dudde]

Immer mit der Ruhe ... ... lieber langsam und stetig

Gruß vom Dudde

[danke_fuer_aIIes]

@Dudde: Du sprichst die Sprache des Managements von DKN. Die möchten auch eine stetige Entwicklung und nicht diese Achterbahn-Fahrten der letzten 2 Jahre.

DKN hat aufgrund der Turnaround-Zahlen jetzt Argumente in der Hand, um wieder mit Brokern zu sprechen - und das werden sie ganz sicher tun!

[Dudde]

Man sollte lieber die Zeit nutzen und sich ein paar Stücke ins Depot legen - dann etwas Geduld und DANN werden wir die Ernte einfahren



Gruß von Dudde

[danke_fuer_aIIes]

@Dudde: Stattdessen gibt es dann welche, die heute noch zu 0,11 verkaufen, obwohl wir in Australien bei umgerechnet 0,12G stehen - aber genau solche Leute möchte Deakin draußen haben (und nie wieder rein bekommen).

[weitweg]

In Oze plus 10% bei geringem Umsatz, Kurs bei 0,13 umgerechnet.

Und jetzt bei 14.

[Informator]

Geht ja gut ab nach der gestrigen Pressemeldung.

Habe auch das Gefuehl, dass nach dem Gewinn- und Management-turnaround jetzt auch der Kurs-Durchbruch gelingt

Liegt mit 0,14 noch immer unter dem AUD-Kurs von fast 0,15, mit solchen Differenzen lassen sich auch immer ein paar % machen.

[danke_fuer_aIIes]

@Informator: Welche Pressemeldung meinst Du?

[Informator]

Deakin expandiert in 2 neue austr. Provinzen und sieht hier das Potenzial, die Gewinne weiter zu erhoehen. Das hat wohl den Kurs um 20% in den letzten 2 Tagen hochgetrieben.
