Sorry peeps, results on 23rd not 2nd as I originally thought.

[chadders] 28/2/2017 13:49

Top sliced yesterday as a precaution but still believe this has some way to go. Results Thursday so if earnings are above 25p it will motor in my view. No advice intended.

I believe the Naked Trader had a 500p target. So it could be him and his followers?

[kryptonsnake] 28/2/2017 12:59

I'd say it's still undervalued and the drop is just profit taking. Last time it dipped by 30p it moved up to £5.

[montyhedge] 28/2/2017 12:53

Overbought, in my view.

[kryptonsnake] 27/2/2017 20:06

SP seemed to lift off just after 12, not sure why?

[kryptonsnake] 23/2/2017 08:10

Sopheon PLC Accolade Release 11.1Source: RNS Non-RegulatoryTIDMSPESopheon PLC23 February 2017SOPHEON PLC("Sopheon" or the "Company")Sopheon's Accolade 11.1 EmpowersEnterprise Strategy-Execution CapabilitySopheon, the international provider of software and services for complete Enterprise Innovation Management (EIM) solutions, announces today the latest version of its Accolade(R) EIM solution.Operating in a dynamic, fast-paced business environment, established market leaders are looking for ways to innovate at the pace of small companies, while leveraging the scale advantages of a larger organization. They are challenged to execute strategic plans for digital transformation, speed and business agility in the face of historically low rates of successful strategy execution. Research by The Economist Magazine shows that on average only 56% of strategic initiatives are considered successful(1) .According to industry analyst Gartner, among the primary reasons for the low success rate of strategic initiatives is poor transparency to the goals of the strategy, and the inability to ensure that everyone working on accomplishing those goals has visibility to interdependencies and progress(2) . Gartner recommends that companies strengthen capabilities such as continuous, almost real-time decision-making, agility in response to change, and multidirectional communication across the organization(3) .Dr. Steven Moskowitz, Senior Principal of Strategic Technology, Innovation Management at Entegris, Inc. stated: "Dynamic communication and dataflow through divisions, into business units and across operations teams is something Entegris views as vital to innovation. Increasing the visibility of plans and decisions is just one of the ways that Accolade is supporting our organization's aspirations."Supporting the long-term success and relevance of customers is the foundation of Sopheon's mission. Sopheon has been deeply engaged with and committed to helping its customers increase their business agility in the face of market disruptions. Accolade 11.1 includes capabilities and enhancements that ease communication of the strategy, providing clear visibility to the connections between high-level strategy and the underlying execution activities. These capabilities connect organizational and functional silos, surface meaningful connections and interdependencies, and increase user engagement, ease of use and efficiency - further strengthening process adoption and ensuring more informed, faster decision making.Andy Michuda, CEO of Sopheon, commented: "Many companies in the market are challenged with communicating strategy across their organization and as a result face a gap in alignment around strategic goals, and low employee engagement. By closing this gap, all stakeholders in the process can more clearly understand what needs to be done, what role they play in making that happen, and what interdependencies need to be managed. Thanks to collaboration and input from our clients on the latest Accolade release, we expect our customers to significantly increase their rate of strategy realization."(1) Why Good Strategies Fail: Lessons for the C-Suite The Economist, 2013(2) Market Guide for Enterprise PPM Software, Gartner, 2015(3) Market Guide for Strategy Execution Software, Gartner, 2016Sopheon(R) and Accolade(R) are trademarks of Sopheon.For further information contact: + 44 (0) Barry Mence, Chairman 1276 919 Arif Karimjee, CFO Sopheon plc 560 Carl Holmes / Giles Rolls (corporate finance) Mia Gardener (corporate + 44 (0) broking) finnCap Ltd 20 7220 0500 About Sopheon.

Entirely consistent, this is what I like about this company. Very professional and honest. Options are issued as an incentive so the company expects the share price to increase from here methinks.

[janeann] 16/2/2017 07:39

Couldn't agree more.

[meganxmas] 16/2/2017 07:28

Is excellent news and demonstrates that the management are being fair and not greedy. Obviously confident of ongoing growth. Nice to see in a world of greed !!!

[trinko] 16/2/2017 07:24

Good news I think! exercise price 467.775:-) More to come the next years:-)))

Hi battlebus, yes I remember too. Hard to imagine it wasn't much more than 12 months ago. Have been top slicing and reinvesting from time to time because I very quickly became top heavy (on at least three occasions), but have kept a core holding that I will hang on to. GLA

[battlebus2] 15/2/2017 17:37

Also in at 65p, I remember you chadders when I first set up the thread. I've recently taken the last profits out of these but will retain a small holding. It's been a great run in just over a year. Good luck to all holders.

[janeann] 15/2/2017 13:53

in at 65p - that's impressive! And I was pleased with my 2.80 entry!

[chadders] 15/2/2017 13:41

DSAO, not many shares in total and if this does earnings of 35p it ought to be on a P.E of 20. Most brokers bullish from £5 plus. Been in since 65p and it has a fantastic record of under promising and over delivering. No advice intended btw.

[dontshoutatonce] 15/2/2017 10:46

Chadders, What makes you think it will rise further from here? Over a month to go until 23rd March. It seems to have the jitters atm. and people so often sell on good news.

[chadders] 15/2/2017 08:30

No news, and I'm not expecting any before 23rd March unless it's a further upgrade to accolade. They tend not to release info about contract wins. I suspect a shortage of stock and a realisation that this really could rise significantly still from here if the profit numbers surprise on the upside.
