Glenn....Welcome back and great to have you here. We were only mentioning you a few weeks back in a nice way of course when someone was remembering the days of a decade back !

I know exactly the sort of company you are looking for as I have been operating exactly that strategy with about 20% of my small cap money over the last year or so now that the economy is coming out of the doldrums and there are some good recovery and growth stories in micro caps with enough cash to see themselves through into profit.

My current favourite tiddlers are Inditherm IDM, Universe Group UNG and John Lewis of Hungerford JLH. There have been very positive announcements from all of them but I still think there is a long long way to go if you see how 20% increases to the top line each year can transform the bottom line due to the very high margins and tight cost bases with pretty much fixed overheads that are coming from a low base and break even levels.

I have to disclose that I hold significant holdings in each company so I am backing my own judgement and then talking my own book to a certain extent.

This is an excellent posting on TMF showing the case for IDM...

it has nearly doubled since then but still an excellent risk/reward share in my opinion as the sales to the NHS and around the world are just coming through and they are tiny compared with the scale of their markets.

If you want fairly steady growth from two more tiddlers that are really doing well in their sectors that are hot right now then I think Crawshaws (CRAW) the butchers or 1pm (OPM) the asset backed business loans company are worth looking at. Both those company managements are doing presentations to our group over the next month. If you are in London at some point then do join us www.mellomeeting.co.uk as we have some great investors that come along and network together and a great track record.

LOQ still remain our top performer but there have been some crackers and you will see that our group are already tuned in to Inditherm. A third of the companies that have been selected and presented to us at our monthly dinners have already doubled and in many cases multibagged.

Do keep popping in here but be careful with some of the microcaps as not all directors and management teams want to share the profits when they come through and find ways of either taking far too much of the cake or pay themselves far too handsomely for very average performance and that hurts in a small company with limited funding. LOQ with Leonard at the start keeping the costs down and then Tom taking us to the next level and making the most of the opportunity has been a terrific ride.....not all are so rewarding.

It's an RNSNON, which everyone should know by now is for investor information rather than market-sensitive, financially material news.

I'm glad that LOQ is keeping its shareholders informed and can't see a problem with that. Far better to now know that Q-smart and accesso continue to thrive - whilst also tipping the wink to the market that LOQ is in prime position to exploit the mobile market.

EC....I do agree it is not a perfect marker but I have no overall measure and eight of the ten holdings were pretty much the same throughout the period with one being taken over late in the year. In a positive year the portfolio gain if including SB accounts will be much better than shown and there are dividends to add as well. The problem for me is how to provide comparable data from the SB providers to that which is available to me from my brokers.

My top ten holdings are very identifiable and a Motley Fool writer has tracked them for years so I felt that was the fairest way to show general performance. If the other investors simply gave annual percentages then one could argue mine have at least been validated against individual investments made. I certainly would not wish to mislead anyone.

I think it is the style and strategy of investing that is of interest to most not an exact percentage gain.

Makes sense & was mooted at during their last investor conference call. spud

MTG, that's the point - I'm sure that the major investors and institutions will have been invited well in advance by the organisers, but as usual the PIs get no advance warning. Whereas they should, particularly in view of the support that us PIs have given LOQ over the years before the institutions were even aware of them.

This often happens with other companies, but it's surprising that it's happened with LOQ.

A lot of teach-ins are restricted to bigger investors/analysts - but how many of those will drop what they're doing at a few hours notice? Seems odd, unless it is a specific group of attendees who were invited in advance.

Lo-Q (AIM: LOQ), the AIM-listed technology solutions provider to the attractions and leisure industry, announces that it received notification today that, in response to significant institutional demand, Mr Leonard Sim, an Executive Director of the Company, sold 250,000 ordinary shares of 1 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") on 19 July 2013, at an average price of 600p each representing approximately 1.28% of the Company's issued share capital. Consequently Mr Sim holds 1,943,575 Ordinary Shares representing approximately 9.96% of the Company's issued share capital.


I have no problem whatsoever with this. Leonard is not as involved day to day now as he was pre TB and did have major surgery last year so probably happy to keep easing some money into general enjoyment purposes. I think the key information is that there is significant demand from institutional investors and £6 is the recent peak so no discount being offered.

When other investors latch on to this further share price movement is assured, not many investors know about Lo-Q glad we do. Start of a new era, were these place at 106 on the aim market, this is the time they should have been placed on aim now at 106p. So 27p seems a bargain.

Thanks hope you all benefitted as much as me. The Q&A was certainly very useful and as at least seven of us were on the call from here we should now be able to help others with any general questions as most things were covered. There were 15 investors on the conference call in total and thanks go to Tom and John for their time and their agreement to hold it.

Thank you, any time on Tuesday afternoon would be fine with me.

If LOQ have a presentation they have been using with institutional investors, which would form the basis for this meeting/presentation, it would be helpful if we could get a copy beforehand.

Cheers, Martin
