Orange1 - in a word - 'casualty'?
Not one for the patient, as it is the patient?
A crash course in medicine?
Accident then emergency?
Clinical Composting?

No end of year profit warning but then again no news either. Some (relatively)sizeable stakes changing hands recently - is this company in its death throws? is the patient about to be admitted to intensive AIM care? Is it time for some gallows humour?

Clinically dead?
Computerly washed up?

My calculations are different from yours Ian. That's because cost of sales is more or less a constant and is not a fixed percentage of total sales.
On that basis I make the break even turnover figure £3.1m and not £3.75m.
The income of licence sales over and above the figure of £3.1m fall more or less straight down to the bottom line with every 350k of licence sales adding 1p of earnings.

Of the 3.1m, 1.25m is assured year on year through maintenance and other fees. That leaves some 2m of licence fees to bag. If you extrapolate the current 1.1 m for the first 6 months that gives you 2.2m for the year which pushes CLC into profit on a rolling 12 months basis (last 6 months of this financial year, first 6 of next). And don't forget every licence concluded leads to more maintenance at a rate of approx. 17.5% a year.

All in all good reason to hope for earnings in 2006-7 of 2p or more putting the company on a forward PE for that year of 5 or less.

Buyers were out today. The above back of the envelope figures could be why.

I fully accept that CLC have performed abysmally in its 10+ years on the market to date but I sense that with the new brooms at the top it could be about to turn the corner.

We live in hope!

The results are not as bad as I had feared and do not warrant the drop in the share price seen in recent weeks.

The bad think about moving to AIM is that any holdings in PEPS and ISAs will have to be sold which could act as a drag on the share price.

Not quite Ian.
Admin expenses of £1.5m p.a., yes, but these are largely covered by the maintenance and other fees the company pulls in each year.
They have now pulled in £1.1m of licence fees in 6 months - practically unheard of in the history of CLC (only 79k in the 6 months to Sept 05)and if they continue at this rate it will be £ 2m +
p.a. (attracting even more maintenance fees. All of which means that the company could well be in profit again before long. At which point the share price should be much higher than now.

Company results out today.
Company sounds a lot more bullish than for a long time and with 6 contracts signed in the period since March (the promised one a month) they seem to be on a roll.
No dreaded cash raising required and nice to see that my AIM prediction has come true!
New boy Lowry and his team seem to be turning the company round - at long last!

The 26k were in an ISA (nominee) account and the 20k were held on certificate personally.

As a matter of interest, I notice that your 2 trades were effected within 6 secs of each other. Was there a specific reason why they were split in this way?

No, mine were the 20k and 26k. Had been holding them on the basis that they were worth next-to-nothing and may go up but my broker's comment was that they could just as easily go to 3p as 13! As a fundamentalist who likes cashflow, profits and divis, these guys have been a constant disappointment (remember the 'deal a month'?) and, on track record alone, I reckon they'll go on in that vein. Good luck to those holding on.

Should you not have sold 23333 and not 23332?
I take it you had 20k and then took up 3333 in the 1 for 6 share issue.

But Ian that's more than 10% of the company's value you have just destroyed. Did you spare a thought for those who might be affected as a result? Employees could lose their jobs, children could go hungry and this in the run up to Xmas too.
How very very dare you!

'Could there be some exciting news to be announced imminently?', you ask, O1. Well, there could be.................but somehow I doubt it!

32000 or so shares bought - and up ticks the price.
Could there be some exciting news to be announced imminently? Something dramatic, like,em, er, a move to AIM?

Too true!
Anyway we will see.

P.S. Whatever happened to WOC's great US adventure? Seems to be very low key now.

Oh, don't worry, they can disappoint again! Expectations may be low but, as I've discovered from bitter experience, however 'cheap' a stock gets you can still lose 100% whatever your entry point! I'm past caring now; too little left to worry about losing the lot and a bit of fun if they recover.

Funnily enough given that I am a cynical soul I don't.
For some few weeks now, WINS have been bidding 14.5p for stock whilst the other MMs have been bidding only 12p. So you might say that WINS have been looking for stock. Trouble is they haven't found it. Or at least not in any great substance.
10k were sold to them yesterday but the day before there were 2 purchases totalling 20k.
So either they were sold a load today which have not (yet) been declared or they are trying to tempt sellers by lowering the price.

More fundamentally expectations are now very low with CLC (so it is hard to disappoint yet again). The contract announced in July should be good for paying a few of the bills.

Hmmmm! Interims due and the price plunges on no volume. Do you smell a leak, O1?
