Posted at 19/11/2010 10:59 by ferries5 Information and publishing company Electric Word has acquired medical publisher Radcliffe Publishing in a deal worth up to £2 million.Electric Word, which serves the education and sports sectors, bought the company for an initial consideration of around £1 million, plus performance related payments of up to £1 million over the next two years. The rns was very vague about the investor they want to buy out (Stewart Newton ???). As for minimal discount, The share price was dropped just before the annoucement and reinstated after it. Also I do not think the £2.4 m raised will include the £1 m performance fee. Does that mean more dilution.!! This company has been listed for 10 years now, hardly a success story. |
Posted at 17/2/2010 10:38 by bleuville Good comment on ELE today in The Times under 'Tiddler to watch': "Electric word, a provider of sport and education information over the internet, jumped 0.38p to 4.75p after unveiling an 8% rise in profits to £1.9m. Panmure Gordon, its broker, again urged clients to "buy", arguing that the company's valuation and strategy should encourage investors this year." Would be nice if this sort of comment could stimulate a bit more positive investor interest in the company! |
Posted at 25/11/2009 07:56 by gelp Looks like connected with the placing to raise some 3.5 million and clear loans etc. that placing is at 3.65 and looks like largely or all being raised by substantial connected parties. I think all is transparent but to a lay man looks complicated. There seems to be some major transfer to pension fund probably for normal tax purposes.That placing was at a 10% discount to the then trading price of 4p.All in all looks a tidying up exercise and sensible refinanace of historical loan with company carry very little debt after wards. certainly looks to me like a show of confidence by the investors who clearly are very close to to the company. I am no expert but overall home in on that placing price and the record of growth and performance to date & feel that all is well underpinned. Look forward to seeing the next news items. I don't know why the multiple transaction on the trades site all show just bellow the 3.65p that was mentioned for the placing.(3.30)may be net of expenses but just guessing. All very interesting. |

Posted at 13/8/2009 08:55 by dealit On the face of it I would agree the results don`t appear to be bad, more important at present the market as not moved on the share price. Do not know if the placing is marked for Institutions, if so don`t see any problem. If ELE are asking the small investor to pay off their debt not very good and I would feel the share price will drop. |
Posted at 26/7/2009 17:42 by albcamus ELE is a microcap, below the radar for most investors. Interest in the company often rises after the announcement of its results and then falls off. I've been a shareholder since 2005. |
Posted at 11/4/2006 11:00 by hoggetwood This is typical ELE share price behaviour. At present ELE has only a small following of investors. Price drifts downwards between statements or announcements. But these almost always contain encouraging news, and the share price spikes upward. ELE seems to me to be an extremely well run company which is slowly getting bigger and better. One to hold for the long term, or to trade from troughs to peaks, as these seem to be as predictable as you'll get for a share price. [I write just a long term holder (with occasional top-ups), and have no special knowledge.] |

Posted at 09/3/2005 11:20 by wilbs1 Buy Electric Word at 8.75pSuggests Andrew Griffiths of The AIM and OFEX Newsletter Specialist publisher Electric Word signalled its coming of age by reporting a maiden annual profit and holding out the prospect of paying a dividend. Revenues rose 81% in the year to end November and pre-tax profits - before goodwill amortisation - were 107,000 pounds. The after tax outcome was even more encouraging as the company booked some of the 2 million pounds of tax losses built up over the years, on the basis that future profitability is now relatively assured. The bottom line was fully diluted earnings per share of 0.21p. The shares have nearly doubled in two years, and have further to go now earnings growth is most definitely ahead. House broker Durlacher is forecasting earnings per share of 0.37p and 0.55p for 2005 and 2006. The value of investments can go down as well as up. Investing in equities can lose you part or all of your capital although the potential returns are theoretically unlimited. Smaller company shares can be relatively illiquid and thus hard to trade. And that makes such investments more of a high risk than larger company shares. Nigel Wray, who has a significant holding in t1ps.com, parent company of UK-Analyst, also has a significant holding in Electric Word. Investors can take comfort that these figures are achievable because Electric Word can forecast advance revenues with some confidence. Renewable subscriptions accounted for 72% of the 5.5 million turnover, and there is 2.5 million of revenue in the balance sheet deferred to future years. Only 1% of revenue is from advertising so there is tiny exposure to the cyclical risk that comes with this business. Another attractive feature is the cash generation. Last year there was a 51% increase in cash to 901,000 pounds, representing nearly 1p per share. As subscription cash is taken in advance of the delivery of subscriptions the cash position should always be strong. There is therefore every reason to believe the shares have further to go. The company publishes "need to know" professional development information, particularly for managers in the public sector. Most revenue comes from newsletter subscriptions but books, special reports and conferences also contribute. Both divisions grew during the period. In education management, the company is benefiting from the devolution of management from local authorities to schools, and the requirement for heads to have the appropriate skills. Turnover doubled in the period, following the 2003 acquisition of PFP Publishing. However, the acquisition accounted for only 36% of the group profit improvement, the bulk of the advance coming from organic growth. The sport and specialist consumer division, which publishes sports science research for coaches and athletes, benefited from online developments. Electric Word says in the longer term there is a substantial opportunity to develop further specialist consumer titles in the UK, which lags behind the US in the use of the medium. Current trading is in line with expectations and ahead of the 2004 financial year.
