Touch of jam-tomorrow at Concurrent
Article Abstract:
Concurrent Technologies has paid off dividend arrears related to its preference shares, of which there are five classes. This is geared toward reorganizing the company's share structure. The preference shares are expensive to maintain and the company would be more attractive if they were bought out. Concurrent has performed well since Intel's withdrawal from its market and new clients include the US Postal Service. The company's profit is forecast to drop to 970,000 pounds sterling for 1997 by Bell Lawrie.
