I was thinking the absence of an RNS from Andor might suggest the OXIG were trying to put pressure on a reluctant BOD by going public. This looks to be the case now that AND have rushed out a response.

It especially irritating for me as a long term holder in AND where I see a good future and where I was on the point of buying OXIG in the next few days given the steady downward drift which was making them look good value.

Now OXIG has soared as it looks like investors think they would be getting a very good deal. Not what I hoped for.

PW i've heard your negative comments on various bulletin boards but i have to say that statement has to be your stupidest. Do us a favour and don't come back till we are trading in pennies. Druinsky that was before it had established itself into the current business. As essential investor said we all knew they were suffering a sales decline in the USA but this is temporary and staff have been dispatched to rectify the problem. As ever this will take time. Meantime a buy now should reward in time imv.

battlebus2 - it looks as if that article is from 2011 and last year's Master Investor conference.

Nice spot - full article below. ;)




Sharewatch: Profits put the focus on Andor
Edited by Joe Brennan

THE physicists at Queen's University Belfast who founded Andor Technology could scarcely believe their eyes when the stock soared 40% on its first day of trading in December 2004.
Since then, however, shares in the maker of the world's most sensitive digital cameras have been something of a disappointment.

It didn't help that the company issued a profit warning last August due to costs related to its new facility in Belfast.

Andor sells its sophisticated cameras in the fields of drug discovery, medical diagnosis, defence, food-quality testing, space and surveillance.

Recently, the group unveiled operating profits of £654,000 (€952,923) for the six months to the end of March, up 124% on the same period last year, as sales increased by 23% to £9.2m.

Goodbody Stockbrokers upgraded its rating on the stock to "buy", saying: "We foresee 162% growth in earnings per share over the next three years; the shares are trading at a price-to-earnings discount to the peer group; and there are realistic prospects of earnings upgrades going forward."

With the broker's price target of £1.30 on the stock implying some 30% upside from its closing price on Friday, it might only be a matter of time before investors zoom in on this one.

New admission. Like the average revenue and EBITA growth over the last few years. Any comments?

Note: Included in the above statistics are 1,126,754 shares for which
application has been made for admission to trading on AIM on 6 December 2004.

Andor is a Belfast-based firm which operates at the high-value end of the
$38.6bn global digital camera market was set up in 1989 as an incubation
business at Queens University Belfast. In 2001, private equity firm Legal
Development Capital provided significant development capital to help increase
production capacity and assist the firm's entry into new markets. Andor now
employs 145 people and distributes its products to customers in at least 29
countries worldwide.

Andor develops and manufactures a range of high performance digital cameras and
their associated products used for the measurement of light. Today Andor has a
portfolio of over 70 products which are employed in fields as diverse as drug
discovery, toxicology analysis, medical diagnosis, food quality testing and
defence. Thanks to new techniques developed by Andor scientists, Andor cameras
can measure light down to just one photon and can also measure light occurring
in very short time resolutions - within 1 billionth of a second.

The management team at Andor have carved out a long track record of growth and
profitability for the company, reporting a profit before tax in each of the last
6 years of operations. The average annual revenue growth rate during the period
of 1999-2004 is 32.9%, whilst the comparative EBIT growth rate figure is 53%.

Remarking on the Admission, Dr Hugh Cormican, Andor Chief Executive said:

"We are delighted to be joining AIM today and our Admission represents a
critical step in the continued development of our company. This listing will
raise the equity funds necessary for us to accelerate the Company's strategic
aims and will also raise Andor's profile among suppliers and both existing and
potential new customers. We look forward to developing Andor as a listed
company and are pleased to welcome our new shareholders on board."

Commenting on the news, Andor Non-Executive Chairman Dr Bryan Keating said: "We
have an excellent product line at Andor, backed by a strong team and a robust
business model. Today's admission to AIM is a significant step forward for our
company - and a clear reminder of the real innovations taking place in Northern
Ireland's universities and private sector."
