Big news? Just received an offer via Barclays of 3p per share. With a catch i.e. 3p not guaranteed, minimum acceptance level not be met or if the investor is no longer prepared to pay 3p per share. What will Didier do with his 60+% shareholding. I'm selling at 3p lets hope Didier does the same.

Didier Stoessel bought 18.7m shares at 2p in the Feb/2009 placing and now has a total holding of 96.8m and with other directors hold 104.2m shares out of a total 145.8m shares, therefore, they own the company. These same directors can now buy their own company at 0.08p rather than the pre announcment price of 2p. A much cheaper way for Stoessel to buy the company rather than a takeover. I also note that a number of insitutional investors have pulled out over past year.
With bankers playing heads I win and tails you lose and being an ex banker Stoessel(HSBC) has the gift of showing us small shareholders of how little we count when it comes to making money.

Apace Media sees current yr revenue in line with mkt forecasts


LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Apace Media PLC said it is confident about the
future and expects current year revenue in line with market expectations.
The intellectual property and branded content company today reported a
pretax loss of 247,000 stg for the year to Dec 31 2006, compared with a loss of
496,000 stg for the comparative 18 months period.
On a like for like basis, the pretax loss from continuing operations for the
year was 116,000 stg, which compared with a pro forma 12 month profit of 25,000
stg for 2005, assuming all currently owned businesses were part of the group
throughout that period.
On the same basis, turnover for 2006 was 10.6 mln stg, up 98 pct from 5.3
mln in 2005.
Chairman and chief executive Didier Stoessel said all the group's operations
are performing well and the strategy of becoming a major investor in media and
other assets is on course and bearing fruit.
Stoessel also said the figures released today show a strong performance
given the high degree of business development investment during the period. The
balance sheet remains strong with net assets of 15.3 mln stg, of which 1.5 mln
is in cash.
But Stoessel said that, as the group focuses on developing the business over
the next few years it shall be investing in people, rights and marketing and
consequently it does not intend to propose a dividend for 2006.
"We will keep this policy under regular review," he added.
Stoessel said that, although the board is expecting full year revenue in
line with market forecasts the group's significant step-up in programming
investment for Diema+ and Diema Family will result in lower short and medium
term profitability for the businesses.
He said the directors believe that this programming investment will benefit
the group greatly in the following years.
The company's prospects are "excellent", he continued.

I've been looking again at my investment in Apace and remain sanguine. I commend you to look at the CVs of the 3 main men, Stoessel, Rowlands and Thompson on the Apace site. They are top guys all. As I've said before, to make real big money you have to invest before the figures themselves show success because at that point the world and his wife will be piling in. Obviously I cannot predict when the financial signal will come of this company's upswing. I would not be surprised if it took a year. But then again it might come tomorrow with their first real results. That's why I have been accumulating at this level: it might be my last chance. I've now invested £75,000. I still think it's a potential 10-bagger.

Glad to hear you got in at the bottom with ERT. For the first time in recent history I bought at the absolute nadir at 32.5p. None of us retail investors should expect to call the absolute bottom or top. An approximation is good enough!

VQ will keep quiet until ERT is up a little more and then claim he bought at 30p.

Apace Media - Successful Fund Raising and Acquisition of Leading Bulgarian Multi-Channel Broadcaster
LONDON, December 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Apace Media plc (LSE: APA.L - news) , the intellectual property and branded content company announces that
it has conditionally raised GBP7 million through the issue of 46,666,666 new ordinary shares at 15 pence per share. The placing, which attracted both new and existing institutional investors, included a GBP1.6 million investment by the Chairman and Deputy Chairman. The new funds are being used to invest in new television production and broadcasting assets. The placing is subject to shareholder approval at an EGM, which has today been called for 22 December 2005, notice of which has been sent to shareholders.

Some of the money raised will be used to fund the acquisition from Diema Group of a 50% holding in Diema Vision, the leading Bulgarian cable/satellite broadcaster. The acquisition is subject to certain closing conditions. Over the next two years, Apace will acquire another 16% of Diema Vision, the timing and consideration for which will be determined by the future performance of the business. The acquisition of Diema brings four additional television channels to the existing two channels Apace already owns in Bulgaria. This acquisition establishes Apace, alongside News Corporation, as one of the biggest multi-channel broadcasters in Bulgaria.

Diema's channels cover sport, films, news and pay-TV/pay-per-view. In addition to television rights, Diema retains home entertainment and cinema rights for some of the films it acquires. The group's sporting rights include exclusive broadcasting of English Premiership, French and Spanish football championships.

The new funding will also be used to invest in the development and creation of new products by Steadfast, Apace's UK entertainment production division acquired earlier this year, and by the group's other UK operations.

Making the announcement Apace Chairman, Didier Stoessel said,

"The success of this fundraising is a reflection of how well our strategy has been received by the investment community. The Bulgarian acquisition consolidates Apace's position as a content producer, rights controller and broadcaster in one of the fastest growing broadcast markets. It dovetails with our declared strategy of building a group of entertainment and production companies capable of exploiting their rights in the UK and other fast growing markets."

Apace Deputy Chairman and Chairman of Steadfast, Chris Rowlands added,

"In addition to acquiring these valuable Bulgarian media assets, the funds will allow us to accelerate Steadfast's production activities by investing in key creative and business affairs executives. In this way we shall be able to create a well- resourced, internationally focussed production arm greatly enhancing Apace's commercial potential."

Application has been made for the new ordinary shares to trading on AIM and dealings in 5,000,000 shares placed with VCT investors are expected to commence on 22 December. The remaining shares are expected to commence trading on 23 December 2005, subject to shareholder approval.
