That's a really good sign Scarboro - As when the board is overpopulated you often find the stock is ramped up..

I believe GLI is at an all time high, and going higher with results just round the corner.

RNS Number:3077H
Glisten PLC
12 January 2005


Glisten Plc ("Glisten" or "the Company")

Holdings in Company


The Board received notification in a letter dated 23 December 2004, in
accordance with sections 198- 202 of the Companies Act 1985 (as amended), that
the holding of the Eaglet Investment Trust plc is 498,000 ordinary shares
representing 3.82 per cent of the Company's current issued share capital.

The Board was informed in a further letter dated 23 December 2004, in accordance
with the Companies Act 1985 (as amended), the holding of Singer and Friedlander
AIM 3 Venture Capital Trust Limited in Glisten remains at 383,292 ordinary
shares and as such it no longer has a notifiable interest in the Company.


Does anybody know if Eaglet has increased or reduced its holding? I guess Singer & Friedlander are slowly reducing theirs.

I havent looked at this one in a while...chart building up a nice bit of support underneath it.
Our share club bought in below £1 IIRC and doubled our money on it before selling.
We weren't sure how many acquisitons the company could manage, but they certailny seem to be doing the business. Could be a nice little earner to dip in and out of on weakness.

up she goes again :-)

I dont currently hold any Glisten shares at the moment but think they are a very interesting share, I think Beeches Chocolates at Preston,Lancs might be an ideal takeover candidate for Glisten to consider as it would give Glisten a good long established quality chocolate manufacturer to add to their portfolio as well as additional production facilities and both companies would benefit from cross selling opportunities and economy of scale (both companies buy-in chocolate coverture as only the big companies can manufacture chocolate)neither Glisten or Beech's have a chocolate production capability. Beech's are still not profitable after 2 years in private ownership and are looking towards profits next year!!!!!!!! a good oportunity for the Glisten treatment!!!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 26 NOVEMBER 2004

Glisten plc
("Glisten" or "the Company")

The food group focused on niche sectors

Proposed acquisition of Halo Foods Limited
and
Placing to raise #7.3m



* Acquisition of Halo Foods Limited for initial consideration of #5.638
million and #300,000 in Ordinary Shares plus a maximum deferred
consideration of #8 million

* Fifth and largest acquisition since flotation

* Placing by Charles Stanley & Co Limited with both new and existing
institutions to raise #7.3 million at 235 pence per share before expenses

* Demand for health-bars is predicted to grow strongly

* Glisten confident of another significant step forward in the run up to
Christmas

Jeremy Hamer, the Chairman of Glisten, said:

"This is clearly the most significant acquisition we have made since admission
to AIM in June 2002, not only doubling our sales but taking us into the fast
growing cereal bar market.

Halo Foods Ltd was founded in 1976 and has become a leading independent
manufacturer of cereal, energy and diet bars. The business also has smaller but
nevertheless important ingredient and confectionery capabilities.

With this acquisition we can now develop Glisten in three distinct sectors of
confectionery, cereal bars and ingredients all of which satisfy our criteria of
being niche."

vs 1.36 mln

[don carter] 14/9/2004 08:04

Excellent results... and excellent prospects.....They beat CStanley's expectations, thus putting them, I think, on a very undemanding forward pe.

Barring one small sell of 1250 shares at 11.43am, all other trades have been buys this morning. Two lots of 5ks had to pay 3p @ 265p when the asking price was 262p. It's looking good up to preliminary results on the 14th.

[slj] 07/9/2004 18:50

Buy signal triggered on the P&F chart @ 248p mid-price - upward breach of triple-top @ 246p (bullish).
