Not bad at all. I was quite pleased with them. What do you think Dell?

[the_professor] 10/4/2006 18:46

Well the results were not that bad

[nockybalboa] 08/4/2006 12:58

looks like the blokes over at www.fairshare.biz got it right again as usual, how do they do it

[dell314] 07/4/2006 08:36

LOL!

Who says the company was "worth" £4.5million a couple of months ago?
FYI, this stock is regularly pumped and dumped, so the share price tends to fluctuate quite widely.

Incidentally, you appear somewhat confused about Power Plate. The company has lost its distribution rights and now has some vague plan to franchise fitness centres. At least one of Power Plate's rivals already does this.
Are you assuming that setting up a franchise business doesn't cost anything?

Have you actually looked at ADE's financial figures? They are nothing short of abysmal so far and they have now lost the one business that was supposedly planned to breakeven this year.

Do you actually have any proper research to share, apart from your observation that the share price has been higher, so it might go higher again.
FWIW, the share price has also been much lower....

All IMHO, DYOR etc.

Interesting that Dell asks if the company is worth over 5 million.

Well it was worth over 4.5 million just a couple of months ago

It is worth 2.75 million now

What value do you put on a company? Well from my research it very much depends on sentiment and forward prospects

Power Plate is a proven money winner. New premises in London and other venues with further roll-outs - could be very interesting results IMO

From last full year results:

"ADDleisure PLC reported a loss for the year to end-July of
908,000 stg, which compared with a 1,000 stg loss for the comparative 10 months
period, reflecting the impact of initial investments together with brand
development and launch costs.
The company, which was formed to develop products and services in the health
and leisure sectors, said its order pipeline is encouraging and its balance
sheet is healthy with no debt and 0.6 mln stg cash in the bank.
All three investment products - Fitbug, Ez-Book and Power Plate - had an
encouraging year, the group added.
It also said it is developing exciting strategic alliances which should
create a strong pipeline of orders.
Additionally, although the consultancy division is taking its first steps,
the group said it feels it has the ability to generate significant income going
forward.
"Whilst your board is working hard to realise the excellent opportunities
afforded to us by our current investments, we are continually on the look out
for other opportunities to grow the company and enhance shareholder value."




Do you think that the company has gone downhill from there?

I'm inclined to believe otherwise, but we'll know very soon

[the_professor] 06/4/2006 15:52

That is partly true but you forgot to mention this:

ADDleisure, which was formed to develop products and services in the health
and leisure sectors, said this represents a profit of 245,000 stg on its
original investment made just over 12 months ago.

Not bad!

Professor - what makes you think this company is worth over £5mln?

After the sale of Liberation Fitness, IIRC, they have a £500k investment in some booking software and a £75k investment in Fitbug remaining.
As both of these companies have been consistently loss making so far, what on earth makes you think this company is worth such a large premium over the cost of its investments?

All IMHO, DYOR etc.

Well I dipped my toes in. If this doesn't get to 5p+ within the next couple of weeks I'm going to eat my Bowler Hat!

Do you have any thoughts on this stock? It seems to be a good buy at this level. IMOHO of course

Interims have to be released by 30th April, at the latest.

I've bought into ADE this morning. For the past few months my company has been trialling FitBug with a small group of volunteers and I, like a number, have become absolutely hooked on it and a number of my friends have now also joined.

As a product, I'm convinced personally and I think the way in which they've opened up the product via the website is a great idea. Whilst the website still needs a lot of work, the concept of looking at your history, competing in leagues etc etc is a major draw.

I like the way that FitBug are gradually getting into the corporate space - one of the best ways of driving up sales - and at a time when more and more companies are looking to encourage their staff to remain healthy which benefits both the company and the individual.

I know far less about Liberation/Power Plate and Digital Plantation / EZ-Book but I like the ability to cross sell these products.

comming up for an hour since my 50k buy , it will show soon.

That is great news, I have been watching for a while....

Contract with Leisure Op.

RNS Number:1332Y
ADDleisure PLC
09 February 2006

ADDleisure Plc / Ticker: ADE.L / Index: AIM / Sector: Leisure

9 February 2006

ADDleisure Plc ('ADDleisure' or 'the Company')

Agreement with Leading Leisure Operator, Mitchells & Butlers plc

ADDleisure, the AIM traded company formed to develop products and services in
the health and leisure sectors, has, through its 50.2 per cent. owned subsidiary
Digital Plantation Limited ("Digital"), signed a five year licensing agreement
with Mitchells & Butlers plc, one of the UK's leading leisure operators, to roll
out its intelligent booking system, Ez-Book, across the entire Hollywood Bowl
estate. The agreement confirms the versatility and power of the Ez-Book
application, demonstrating that it is compatible to a range of sectors.

Ez-Book allows Hollywood Bowl venues to maximise profitability whilst improving
customer service. Following successful trials at outlets in London, Leeds and
Bristol, Hollywood Bowl has become the first UK tenpin bowling operator to offer
online bookings. Mitchells & Butlers plc currently operates 24 Hollywood Bowl
venues throughout the UK.

ADDleisure Director David Cummin said: "Ez-Book has been designed to improve
the efficiency of customer-facing businesses whilst facilitating cutting-edge
booking functionalities utilising both the web and SMS messaging. By offering
versatility to the operator and convenience to the consumer Ez-Book is
generating significant interest and is already being used or trialled by a
number of spa operators, private health club chains and local authorities. The
successful trial with Hollywood Bowl allows us to widen the application
further."

Mitchells & Butlers plc Senior Marketing Manager Paul Madden commented: "We are
delighted with the trial and the online booking service facilitated by Ez-Book.
Online bookings now account for around 15% of the bookings taken at the trial
bowling centres and we are looking forward to building on this figure as the
service is rolled out across the remaining Hollywood bowls."

Ez-Book has been endorsed by several leading operators in the health spa and
broader leisure sector. The Company is continuing to widen the application of
the software to operators in the retail and service sectors, which would benefit
from efficient allocation of a limited number of resources and cutting-edge
booking functionality.

[dell314] 16/1/2006 12:09

memoeryman - LOL!

So summarising your points, you appear to be suggesting that buying AIM stocks at random is a good investing strategy, as it's quite possible that they might rise to a price that ridiculously overvalues them for no reason.....

I'll bet Warren Buffet doesn't know that!

Dell you really don't understand AIM shared do you. these are not mainstream companies quoted on the main index.


They are highly volatile and as such 10p could easily be reached in the short term, did I say it will stay at 10p NO , short term means SHORT TERM, and in the long term it may only be 5p

GET A LIFE DELL AND UNDERSTAND AIM SHARES

[dell314] 16/1/2006 11:22

memoeryman - You seem to agree with any stupid targets pulled out of thin air.

Have you ever actually tried relating any of your targets to the market cap, or performance of the company in question?

[memoeryman] 16/1/2006 11:11

could see another nice rise today, positive press comment and a fast growing company, all ripe for a upward shift in the share price would agree with sip looking for 10p short term

[siptrader4] 16/1/2006 10:12
