Cannot change anything without forcing change.
The NED are not protecting shareholders.

At the very least these points should be put to the BOD in advance and repeated at the AGM so they are recorded.

Scant satisfaction but its simple they are pinching money.

I have told him and he shut me down on twitter etc.

I lost it over the jsop which for me was where the greed started.

What i have never understood is your distinction between awful management, lack of shareholder value and no Checkit orders and this being a continued good investment ?
They have proved time and again that they can't make any profit or grow the business, but only line their own pockets at shareholders expense.
I now see what that idiot on the old thread was on about,
Well done EKt management, you are playing a blinder here :-)

Daley is not stupid pat, he has long since realised this is a dead duck and is now screwing it for all he can while he can.
Interims due this week ? let's see why he paid himself that bonus...

[blackss] 17/9/2016 11:23

And don't forget to cc in Perloff, Kinder, D&A and the remuneration committee.

[blackss] 17/9/2016 11:21

Give hartest a capital H and thats almost very good. Now send it to Cambridge, he's not going to answer you here !

Hi KeithI know you read this bb every dayPlease tell me why you were deserving of an 80k bonus when you spent all year fighting Barry in the courts? Why should shareholders pay this from their hard earned money?The core business is only back to where it was 8 years ago so where is the exceptional performance warranting your 80k bonus?Did you take a pay cut when we had 9m in debt due to your awful acquisition of hartest and move out of China? No, you have never taken a pay cut when a company the size of us doesn't need a CEO and chairman..so why the hell did you insist on a 80k bonus?You have always promised Jam tomorrow..if we have wasted 5m in checkit do you think you were deserving of that 80k bonus? Tie your bonuses to Checkits performance not to Bulgin which was already flourishing 15 years ago before you arrivedPay back our bonus and pay us a dividend which you always said was "sacrosanct"

[patviera] 17/9/2016 09:46

It's a shame that the only news shareholders ever receive is what BONUS KD is receiving and NOT any news about checkit contract wins or Bulgin ordersShow me the last RNS outside of figures giving us any good news That's because KD only cares about his remuneration while picking up shares at all time lows 13 years of falling profits and share price while KD has been on the BOD as chairmanWhat's he care..he has received 3.5m gbp in salries and excessive bonuses

[patviera] 16/9/2016 17:19

Totally agree RoddieKD really doesn't care cos he earns 300k pa so shareholder value is the last thing he is concerned aboutThe court case with Barry was his only worry over the last 10 years as he has earned over 3.5m Pounds!!For achieving nothing except costing most shareholders more than 70pct of capital lossesA very very lucky man

[roddiemac2] 16/9/2016 16:38

How much time do you give someone to fulfil their dream before telling them they have failed miserably ? The unnecessary name change from the widely recognised Bulgin to Elektron was an indication of what to expect from these guys: bull----

I wish you better returns on your other investments.

[patviera] 16/9/2016 11:53

Can imagine kd saying pay us bonuses or we will leaveI'm sure JW could get a job elsewhere but I'm also sure any one could've created more shareholder value than them two over the last 13 yearsYet they think they are entitled to bonuses when us shareholders get nothing!!!Not nice and not fair..greedy id say Let's hope d and a don't put up with their nonsense for much longer

[spec7] 15/9/2016 20:19

Take it up with him and BOD Pat. Everyone knew what he was about years ago even you. A big clue was when he filled his boots with cheap shares at the time of the Hartest buyout and left you out. I was buying in the market at 31p when he was arranging his own shares at 20p. That was the reason i sold out a little while later. OK he sold you some at 25p after you kicked off but even that was put down as the company needing "working capital" which was nonsense. Its been smoke and mirrors and exceptionals and puerile excuses for years, micro EU climates and other such rubbish, next it will be "brexit" you wait. Brexit has so far been a huge plus for british exports with the £ to € drop, pound to a penny its given as an excuse from this crowd come the interims. Its just so bloody predictable.

[patviera] 15/9/2016 18:12

If daley had made no acquisitions and down absolutely nothing we would've been 30p He really has made a fine mess of things yet managed to get another LTIP at all time lows in share price while paying out 250k in bonuses out of zero profitsSo he will pour all our profits into checkit and pay himself a v big bonus on top of 200k salary when we already have a CEO on 200kHow many aim companies have a chair AND CEO on 200k? None with a mkt cap under 25m and zero profits!!

[spec7] 15/9/2016 16:14

The sad fact is pat it's not Bulgin or Checkit or any fantastic plan from Daley and Wilson that has kept this afloat, its years of dilution, placings, cash calls and sell offs. The question is what happens when the external revenue runs out ?

[patviera] 15/9/2016 15:35

Talk im hearingLots of betting going onWhat will we hear of first in an RNS1/ Daleys annual bonus Or 2/news of a contract win for checkitMy bets on no1All about directors remuneration NOT any good news re EktWe've waited 16 years for good news..will it change??Board 10 year remuneration hits 10m qd next year!!Very well done to our executive..they certainly HAVE played a blinder!!

[patviera] 10/9/2016 18:19

..The final results to January 2006 showed sales of £22.4 million (2005: £23.0 million), pre-tax profit of £1.8 million (2005: £2.6 million), adjusted EPS of 1.65p (2005: 1.5p) and DPS of 0.35p (2005: 0.3p) -Ten years later we have Double the revenue Four times the amount of shares in issueNo profitsNo dividendsHuge remunerationHuge bonuses Management here should be ashamed of themselves for cancelling dividends to award themselves huge bonuses for performances so much worse than 10 years ago!!
