Stanley Gibbons (SGI:AIM) 204p

Down almost 14% since being tipped at 237.5p (23 Aug ‘07), 2007 numbers show that the drop is more about wider market worries than anything company specific. Those figures show profits 23% up on the previous year, after one-off costs, thanks to continued growth in the stamp market. Stanley Gibbons has grown into an iconic brand and its ability to tap into online sales has helped no end. House broker Seymour Pierce reckons EPS will jump around 40% to 19.1p this year, and on to 24.2p next, placing the shares on a cheap EP of just over eight, on a 12-month view.
