iNside2:> Could be a tax advantage subject to how th edeal was structured. I am out of touch now but when I used to take my Bonus in shares (one of the top 10 UK plc's) my gross bonus went into shares and there was no income tax if held for 3 years.

Not saying that this has happened here. You cash flow thery is possilby nearer the point. To be completely cynical it could be that they want to continue as directors and given the cash position this was the best choice.

We are very short on news on top line sales and still appear to be cash burning.

Do not hold but has been on watch list for some time but have held off due to a very slow adoption of the technology.

Well it certainly shows considerable confidence in the company and its future as 36% is a very big premium. They must really believe they will get their money back. But it does beg a question regarding cash flow, I would suggest there willingness to do this makes it a short term issue if one at all, they are after all in a position to know what contract ect. are in the pipeline. So on balance my take on this is a positive one, which may well be the only reason behind this, the share price could after all do with some support.

That's interesting - why would they do that when they could just take their Director fees and buy stock in the market much lower ? Will obviously improve the cashflow for the company, but will their fees maek that much difference, or are they running out of cash ?

I'm out chaps - utilised the cash for WCC and the loss will be handy in offsetting gains. Whilst I still think BLS has potential it's the opportunity cost that I'm thinking of. May well revisit if it drifts lower.

Good luck to all

The price is hovering just above the downward trend line, if it does not break the line we could be looking at a bounce. Fundamentally this certainly looks a sound investment.
I shall top up at the next positive news release.

I have been watching for what seems ages.
Waiting for the fall to tail off but it just
seems to keep on falling.

I like what I see here and like you KatyLied
I think when it bounces it will move up quickly.
I will look to take a position next week if it gets
to my entry price.

A new nomad often is (but not always) a signal for a funding round.
However, if trade debtors come in OK, there shouldn't be a need.
Fall may simply be to discourage sells during summer doldrums.
May bounce quite well if/when buyers return. Anyhow, I have
started to stake build and the cheaper the better...

The contining fall in the share price is giving some cause for concern. There must be a reason for this - is a cash call in the offing somewhere?

Hmmmm.

Interesting Pug - Soc Gen's Technology fund managers sees the RFID market as a developing area with huge potential and apparently we're at the emerging stage, shortly before it goes mainstream.

Market cap (advfn) approx £30M and still loss making - The market is very competitive and not growing nearly as fast as predicted particularly in the RFID area. Debtors at some 40% of t/o seems rather high. Overall unless there is likely to be a very significant turnround the share pice will (imo & dyor etc) continue to be soggy.

Does anybody have access to the brokers note as Digital Look is forecasting a pre-tax profit for 2007/8

IC summary: "They remain worth buying on a long term view".

Brokers expect losses again this year but an adjusted ptx profit of $1.72m 2008/9.

That's quite a turnround from 20006/7 losses of $3.2m.

I'll wait for that and hope in the meantime that business will increase from companies seeking to export to and comply with new EU laws governing electronic goods.

Think the MMs are trying to shake a few sellers out. They're bouncing back up now on virtually no volume. Net position so far today is sell of 3300 shares, hardly enough to justify the 6% fall !

"azalea - 18 Jun'07: With circa 89% in major shareholders and directors hands, any decent buying should have a disproportionate affect on the sp".

Likewise selling - one sale of just 5848 shares this morning has dropped the price down 3% !

Results are decent, growth is excellent. However, losses are still relatively large compared to cash in hand. No mention that they are looking to be cash flow positive by the end of next year.

Even so, given this was £1.80 last year there is good upside. The slow take up of RFID is what is causing the problem I feel.
