Caplay Share Discussion Threads

It means that they have decided not to buy Textic and therefore are calling in the loan of £200K. We must hope that they have something else up their sleeve and want the money for that.

So, where does this latest RNS, leave us, any ideas?

Something stirring?

For immediate release
19 June 2009
Caplay Plc
("Caplay" or the "Company")
Corporate update

As previously announced on 18 June 2008, the Company made a £200,000 loan to Textic Limited (the "Loan"), a computer software company specialising in the development, marketing and selling of text-to-speech technology for web and mobile use, and at the same time, was granted an option to acquire the entire issued share capital of Textic Limited ("Textic").

The term of the Loan is a period of twenty four months from the date of the Loan agreement (the "Loan Period") such that the Loan must be repaid on or before 17 June 2010. Caplay may at any time during the Loan Period give notice in writing to Textic that Caplay requires repayment of the Loan prior to the expiry of the Loan Period provided that the date on which the Loan is requested by Caplay to be repaid is not before the expiry of the first twelve month anniversary of the Loan, being 18 June 2009. The Loan must be repaid in full on the date on which repayment is so requsted by Caplay or if later, on the expiry of the Loan Period in 2010. The Loan is secured by a debenture over the business and assets of Textic and bears an interest rate of 10.0 per cent. per annum.

Since making the Loan, the Board of Caplay has continued to review the progress that Textic is making in developing its business and has decided that it would be in the best interests of the shareholders of Caplay at this time to request repayment of the Loan. Accordingly, Caplay has submitted a request for repayment in full of the Loan.

A further announcement will be made in due course.

[malc5] 10/6/2009 09:50

What is what?

[donaceace] 05/6/2009 07:25

and this is that :)

[paddyfool] 05/6/2009 07:23

and that was that.............

[monty77] 21/5/2009 10:56

Gone real quiet here

[malc5] 08/4/2009 18:09

I suppose the big question is does cly need AIM to move forward with this project, if they need extra money then I would have thought the answer must be yes in todays climate.

[buzzyl] 08/4/2009 12:40

No, not as yet. I believe we have up to 6 months before it is RNS or bust.

[malc5] 08/4/2009 10:32

Any news, anyone?

[safman] 01/4/2009 21:08

i certainly think there are opportunities for cash shells as reversals. Listing @ the moment is v difficult in the current climate and i did take a look @ this some time back and i think sometime earlier this year.

500K cash..

however the leo knifton issue with this shell puts me off. Historically, his shells have either delisted or have come back on the market very much changed.
I did look @ textic, and it looks like a decent enough company, however overpriced significantly, imo, on hardly any revenues.

If caplay was to come back on the market, with an RTO, how much will your shares be worth. Looking @ historical perspectives, will it come back with an RTO, or will it delist, have a capital reorg, and then come back. The latter, will make sure that your shares are worth fractions of fractions.

saffy..

Is the answer on post 69 , this thread?

I.E. they couldn't release results while part of PTS was going down the tubes ?

N.B. - just a guess !

[malc5] 01/4/2009 17:09

Yep, I still hold also, now we are in a period of grace as such, it would be interesting to have some thoughts here as to why they have left it this long, is there anyway the suspension helps them? what would happen to the company/monies if they broke away from AIM, and could they still do the deal with textic without AIM.

[monty77] 01/4/2009 16:44

Yep...I am fairly optimistic. Textic looking promising. I suppose the due diligence will take time, so let hope for re-admission to trading soon.

[buzzyl] 01/4/2009 16:08

Yep, still here. Averaged down so fingers firmly crossed. How about you monty - assume you still hold?

[william-just] 01/4/2009 09:13

Yep and I hold a lot of stocks that have been suspended.
So I might as well keep this one.

[malc5] 01/4/2009 09:09

Is there anyone still in?

[rhiannon] 31/3/2009 14:18

[malc5] 29/3/2009 16:31

[darcy5] 28/3/2009 17:58

Textic announces real-time vocalised translation for websites
A new web-delivered accessibility service from Textic, the web text-to-speech (TTS) specialists, enables users to hear the original English (USA & UK) text of a website translated and spoken in a foreign language, alongside the foreign text in a large-font caption at the top of the screen. The real-time spoken translation is a key feature of new Talklets 2.5 Plus, the latest version of the accessibility technology from Textic, which includes a number of new accessibility features.

Maidenhead, UK (PRWeb UK) March 25, 2009 -- A new web-delivered accessibility service from Textic, the web text-to-speech (TTS) specialists, enables users to hear the original English (USA & UK) text of a website translated and spoken in a foreign language, alongside the foreign text in a large-font caption at the top of the screen.

The real-time spoken translation is a key feature of new Talklets 2.5 Plus, the latest version of the accessibility technology from Textic, which includes a number of new accessibility features.

Functionality like this will not have been seen or heard before by many web users
It takes the concept of e-inclusion to a new level across language barriers, enabling potential access to English text on the internet to millions of non-English speakers and readers.
Talklets 2.5 can currently vocalise translated text in Spanish, French, German, Polish and Dutch in high-quality, life-like voices. The written translations are currently provided by Google, one of the best on-the-fly text translation services. Further languages will be available in the near future.

"Functionality like this will not have been seen or heard before by many web users," said Paul Ayres, Chief Executive Officer at Textic. "It takes the concept of e-inclusion to a new level across language barriers, enabling potential access to English text on the internet to millions of non-English speakers and readers."

Talklets version 2.5 also includes a document 'speaker', which will convert and read aloud the text from PDF and Microsoft Word files. Many websites provide information in these formats, which are often difficult for screen-reading technology to convert reliably into speech. See a summary of the features of new Textic Talklets 2.5.

Other features of the new Talklets release include greater multi-browser support, a new fully integrated help and options interface and additional assistance for established users of screen-readers.

The standard version of Talklets 2.5 provides instant on-the-fly text vocalisation in the native language of the website, with optional voices. A snippet of code on the web page to be vocalised is all that is required to initiate the Talklets service.

The user interface can be via a skinnable 'Toolbar' or selected controls from a 'Toolbox' or directly via an API. Mouseover reading, word-by-word highlighting, read speed control, save as MP3 and even screen or text zoom and highlight colour are all immediately available to any visitor to a Talklets-enabled website without installing any special software.
