Something of a tenuous link to Chelsea! Bit of buying ahead of 2nd July D Day. And fwiw I have topped up again. Maybe the general market sentiment will rpevent this reappearing at a premium to today's price but longer-term I'm sure we will have some fun

Proposed Acquisition of EKF-diagnostic GmbH
Placing to raise GBP15.06m (gross) at 15p per share

Change of name to EKF Diagnostics Holdings plc


EKF Diagnostics certainly have a lot of product -

Board Changes, New Strategy, Disposal and Placing

Under the AIM Rules for Companies, shareholders' approval is required for the
change of strategy and it is proposed to post a circular to shareholders
shortly; seeking such approval at a general meeting. Once approved by
Shareholders the Company will have 12 months to make an acquisition, or
acquisitions, which constitute a reverse acquisition or implement its investing strategy. The Board anticipates it will make an acquisition which will constitute a reverse acquisition within this time frame.



4 January 2010
Result of General Meeting

shareholders.

Another article with quotes from Julian Baines, this from one from March about using AIM:



Investors have become extremely choosy about the sectors they will back. Healthcare is a firm favourite, on the basis that people are always willing to spend on keeping fit and healthy. The right technology and energy companies may get a look in too.

One Welsh entrepreneur among the handful to get access to AIM recently is Julian Baines. He and colleague David Evans acquired AIM-listed cash shell International Brand Licensing in January to develop a health diagnostics business. Their track record includes British Biocell International, which they sold in 2008. "BBI had high profits and good growth potential, and so will the companies we're looking to acquire," says Baines.

He's aware of risk aversion across the whole stock market but is not deterred. "I think it's a solid, positive change. Now isn't a bad time at all to come back to the market if you have solid businesses with good growth and a high reputation."

Funding growth through acquisitions – which is IBL's strategy – is where AIM is particularly supportive compared with private equity. BBI made seven acquisitions in the three-and-a-half years after it floated, compared with none in the four years it was under venture capital ownership.

Baines already has three acquisition targets in his sights. Once the first is complete he will give IBL a more appropriate name and set up a corporate headquarters in Cardiff. Listing on AIM, he says, "really is an easier way of rapidly growing a business if you're starting from a very strong base"

It is an interesting question what an appropriate current share price for the company is. I guess it comes down to how much value you attibute to goodwill of the new management and new strategy.

With net tangible assets after placing funds and recent disposals likely to be around £3.7m and a current market cap of £10.7m at the curent share price of 25.5p - this implies trade marks to be sold and goodwill equate to £7m of the market cap.

If, as someone estimated above that trade marks could be sold for £2m, then this would value the goodwill at £5m or just under half the current share price.

A good track record in a prior similar business is certainly worth a lot to shareholders in any new business. The question of how much however will be revealed if and when any new shares are placed or issued as part payment of an acquisition. In this situation the placees or aquired company will judge how much they are willing to pay for the goodwill.

My only concern is that profitable diagnostics businesses do not come cheap. If initial acquisitions are to be funded from internal resources then shareholders might find that the share price is a little more reliant on the alchemy principle in the short term!

rob; four months now since the new strategy was announced and only one disposal RNS since.

I just figure we must be very close to another very significant announcement; particularly as we have seen some chunky trades in recent weeks.

We know what's going to happen - it's just the timing and the detail now.

Have faith my son; no way the directors have invested over £1M simply to see 12p on the share price over 6 months.

This is the start of the rise, not the end.

so based on £30m turnover and some profit we should be looking at a market cap of about £30m which means a share price of four times our current price in 18 months but some dilution is likely. is that right? help appreciated.

Good news. More cash in the pot with today's RNS:


INTERNATIONAL BRAND LICENSING PLC SELLS STAKE IN ADMIRAL ASIA

("IBL" or "the Company")




International Brand Licensing Plc (AIM: IBL) announces that it has sold its 49% stake in the joint venture company, Admiral Asia Limited ("AAL"), to its existing partner, Rich Crest Group, for a cash consideration of £375,000. Included in the transaction are the Admiral trademarks for the Russian Federation.



Julian Baines, IBL's CEO, comments: "We are delighted to have completed this disposal following the recent announcement of the Company's new strategy to withdraw from the sporting goods industry and move into the in vitro diagnostics devices ("IVD") market place."



IBL will continue to sell off the remainder of the its worldwide sports IP assets, which will generate additional cash to invest in the Company's IVD growth.

International Brand Licensing plc
("IBL" or "the Company")
Board Changes, Proposed New Strategy, Disposal of Existing Business and Placing
Key points
The Board of IBL is pleased to announce:
* New Board appointments with David Evans joining the Board as non-executive
chairman, Julian Baines as CEO and Dr Kevin Wilson as non-executive director.
* Proposed change in the strategy of the Company moving away from the exploitation
of a portfolio of sports and lifestyle brands to building a business within the
in vitro diagnostic devices ("IVD") market place.
* A placing to raise circa GBP1 million by way of the issue of 8,398,300 new
ordinary shares at a price of 12.75p per share and a commitment to dispose of
the existing licensing business.

Proposed New Strategy
The Board has identified the IVD market place as having significant potential
for generating shareholder value and intends to use IBL as a vehicle to build a
group focused on the IVD industry, through acquisition. The recent Board
appointments bring a wealth of experience in this industry, adding to that of
Gordon Hall, and a strong track record of delivering significant returns to the
shareholders of companies in which they have been directors. The Board's
intention is to deliver attractive returns to shareholders within the next 3-5
years.
The target businesses will be within the diagnostics industry, focusing
initially on applications which will benefit most from the migration of routine
diagnostic testing from the clinical laboratory to the point of care. The target
businesses will have a proven product record, significant intellectual property
and manufacturing expertise.
The IVD Market
In the Directors' opinion, there is a substantial opportunity to construct a
business that can take advantage of the significant ageing profile of the
western world population and help in the diagnosis, treatment and care for older
people.
In vitro diagnostic medical devices are used for the examination of specimen
samples taken from the human body in order to diagnose patients. In particular,
IVDs are used in point of care testing and self testing. As more of the routine
diagnostic testing moves from the clinical laboratory to the point of care, the
Board believes that there will be significant future growth in the use and sale
of IVDs.
General Meeting
Under the AIM Rules for Companies, shareholders' approval is required for the
change of strategy and it is proposed to post a circular to shareholders
shortly; seeking such approval at a general meeting. Once approved by
Shareholders the Company will have 12 months to make an acquisition, or
acquisitions, which constitute a reverse acquisition or implement its investing
strategy. The Board anticipates it will make an acquisition which will
constitute a reverse acquisition within this time frame.
Board appointments and changes
The three new Directors bring a wealth of experience in the diagnostics
industry.
David Evans has significant experience and contacts worldwide within the IVD
industry and is currently chairman of Immunodiagnostic Systems Holdings plc and
Epistem Holdings plc and was formerly a director of BBI Holdings plc ("BBI") and
DxS Limited.
Julian Baines was until recently Group CEO of BBI where he undertook a
management buyout in 2000, a flotation on AIM in 2004 and was responsible for
selling the business to IMI Inc in 2007 for circa GBP85 million. Julian has
resigned from his executive role at BBI but will remain on the board as a non
executive director.
Dr Kevin Wilson has been on the board of a number of public and private
businesses and was Senior Independent Director of BBI from its AIM flotation to
its sale in 2007.
Following the new appointments to the Board, Adam Reynolds has become a
non-executive director and Tony Hutchinson has stepped down from the Board. The
Directors would like to thank Tony for all his efforts over the last 7 years in
developing the Admiral brand and assisting in the disposal of trademark
registrations. Tony will, in the short term, continue to assist the Board with
its strategy of disposing of the licensing business and the Board wishes him
well for the future.
