Nexus Management Share Discussion Threads

Clears the decks for other announcements, eg acquisition - possibly Enables IT.
So good news in my opinion. The last couple of days,by the way, the indicative sell trades have all been buys at 0.11p.

Any views on today's RNS? Are we just a shell company now?

[bishopawn] 10/7/2012 22:25

Thanks Melton. I had that info already. We'll have to wait for plans to be unveiled to see where Enables IT fits in to the bigger picture. All to play for at this stage and plenty room for speculation still.

[melton john] 10/7/2012 18:08

Well Bishop, speculate away.
Enables-IT are so small they don't even need to post full accounts.

I thought I'd help you out so your imagination didn't get you in trouble again.

I don't see a takeover somehow, maybe Nexus were struggling to find someone to take charge.

LOL....You lost Sweepy after paragraph 1 Sir.....;-)))

163 hospitals and 109 freestanding surgery centers in 20 states in USA and England and employing approximately 199,000 people.

HCA typically invests about $1.5 billion annually to keep our facilities modern and up-to-date technologically and to expand and add services where needed. Focusing primarily on communities where the company is a leading healthcare provider.

163 hospitals
199,000 employees
$1.5 billion annual budget to spend of facilities and technology and expansion.

So, sweepie? So, what?

Enables IT has been the preferred supplier of IT Solutions for the past 12 years to HCA in the UK....and considered a trusted advisor. Now that Enables IT looks like it is about to hook up with Nexus Management with Mike Walliss taking over as CEO of Nexus, we may speculate as to what is the motive for doing so, right?

Would the Nexus facilities in the USA offer Enables IT a way into the USA market, from which hitherto it was precluded? Does the Brunswick Data Centre in Maine, USA which Nexus owns, present an attractive facility to Enables IT, through which it might service HCA in the USA as well as in the UK?

If HCA(UK)thinks so highly of Enables IT, as the testimonial from the Enbables IT company website I quoted previously clearly indicates, perhaps (and at this stage it is pure speculation, but a reasonable one to posit)might Nexus offer it a very neat way to extend the same attractive service to HCA (USA) to the mutual benefit of both EnablesIT and Nexus?

12 years looks good on the CV, and in a fragmented USA market, the argument could be made for a company-wide and uniform service.

This is pure speculation. But what other reason might there be for Mike Wallis sitting in the driving seat at Nexus as we speak?

Any other suggestions and specualtions would be welcomed....what's yours sweepie?

Talking of plus market, my memory says you bought a load of Specialty Scanners when they had a fire sale. Did you sell them on. That was one of my mistakes, very poorly timed float.

This Webb Capital?


The irony here is that the last results were on reflection imho not quite as abysmal as previous ones, if I recall the cash position had lessened in its severity, but the share price continues to indicate the company may be in a near terminal state.
I am not convinced that new management will have any more clout than old, and when was this company's last 'contract win' RNS?

Oh, when indeed!

[bishopawn] 04/7/2012 20:39

Just a thought.....we seem to be ignoring the fact the Peter Webb of Webb Capital, who made a great deal of money in this sector in the early noughties, has (pesumably after a great deal of investigation and analysis)taken ownership of 20% of Nexus shares, and probably loan stock too for that matter.

He could decide to back a good plan with his support financially, if the proposed acquisition offered a quicker route to enhanced shareholder value.

Him coming on board in my view is a very positive development.

[gombie] 04/7/2012 16:19

Sweepie2.Very true.

[sweepie2] 04/7/2012 15:39

If you care about a share you would never sell, I only care about trying to make money and yesterdays news shouldn't have resulted in the share price dropping in fact its the most positive news at the company for awhile. But investors are fed up with being disappointed and lied to so until that changes people will steer clear of NXS

[mrphiljones] 04/7/2012 09:25

And you care because,you sold your shares remember?...........

[sweepie2] 04/7/2012 09:21

If anything it might be a RTO on the cheap for Enables, still at least its news of some sorts

[melton john] 04/7/2012 08:50

You're beginning to sound like that infamous ramper buystock. Putting lots of positive spin on not much at all.

If you are interested in enables-it, check it out on companies house, get the last accounts and shareholder list and then you'll have some facts to work on.
It doesn't cost much at all, less than a tenner last time I did it.

As far as your take on mike wallis directorship, how do you jump from this fact to Nexus taking over Enables. Surely it's more likely that enables would want a seat on the board before taking a stake in Nexus.

[bishopawn] 03/7/2012 22:46

163 hospitals.

[bishopawn] 03/7/2012 22:44

Even better,,,,,the parent company in USA.....

At its founding in 1968, Nashville-based HCA was one of the nation's first hospital companies. Today, we are the nation's leading provider of healthcare services, a company comprised of locally managed facilities that includes about 163 hospitals and 109 freestanding surgery centers in 20 states and England and employing approximately 199,000 people. Approximately four to five percent of all inpatient care delivered in the country today is provided by HCA facilities. Richard M. Bracken serves as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of HCA, and R. Milton Johnson is the company's President and Chief Financial Officer.

HCA is committed to the care and improvement of human life and strives to deliver high quality, cost effective healthcare in the communities we serve. Building on the foundation provided by our Mission & Values, HCA puts patients first and works to constantly improve the care we give them by implementing measures that support our caregivers, help ensure patient safety and provide the highest possible quality. Investing in our communities is important to us. HCA typically invests about $1.5 billion annually to keep our facilities modern and up-to-date technologically and to expand and add services where needed. Focusing primarily on communities where the company is a leading healthcare provider, HCA selectively adds new facilities in order to better serve our communities.

And because two HCA founders were physicians, we value highly the strong relationships we've created with local physicians. We endeavor to provide them with a wide array of services and modern facilities in order to help them deliver the best possible care.

With many years experience in the Healthcare Sector, Enables IT have an impressive list of clients to prove their expertise. They have built up a long-standing, trusting and successful relationship with the largest private hospital group in London and its affiliated subsidiaries, and they have also impressed numerous well known consultants and clinics with their friendly yet professional service.

Having done a bit of digging, I understand that this hospital group is Healthcare Corporation of America (HCA UK)

Take a look at this beauty.......

[fgump] 03/7/2012 16:20

check out the connection between Marcus Yeoman and the new exec director...

[bishopawn] 03/7/2012 11:37

Nexus acquiring Enables is my take on it for its customer base in UK. As it is not a listed Co, not sure we will find out much about it for now.

[marab] 03/7/2012 08:37

The point of this would be what dp you think,RTO, merger, sharing customer base, new blood to energise NXS? Still, any news is better than no news.

[bishopawn] 03/7/2012 08:11

point taken.

[melton john] 03/7/2012 08:02

That may be Bishopawn but it's the wrong one.



They seem a pretty small outfit. Are they listed?
