Apologies for off topic, but you should be aware! Anyone tempted to go to the self promoting bmichaelmouse - serial basher.

Here's what you won't learn from his guru skills.

Interesting spin, especially the topic of the share price. Remind us of your two darling "growth" investments on a 12 month view.

Avanti; THE FRAUD! 250p now 24.5p - by his own admission he bought at 170p and 120p and advised buying at 48,p. If you were brave, being his caveats.

Another of his growth stocks
Trakm8: The cash guzzler and creative accounting magician 360p now 153p. But to be fair, you got a maiden 2p divi. Shame it can't afford it. Isn't that the same trick a number of Chinese frauds use to sucker investors in!

But his favourite part-time is bashing TW related stock and attacking other posters invested in certain stock, like someuwin. Revenge for short advice on some of michaelmouse shares.

Don't worry someuwin - he surely can't blame two premium uses as being the same person. His usual ploy when more than one person disagrees with him. Someuwin always keeps his counsel.

At the start of the year Andrew Hore tipped TAL as one the five AIM stocks to shine in 2016 for the Interactive Investor website. Here is his latest update on its disappointing progress to date:

Tip price: 2.38p

Current price: 1.75p

TV programme producer, publisher and digital communications services provider Ten Alps (TAL) was included as a 2016 tip because of the scope for recovery in the performance of its business following its refinancing. However, it has got worse before it has got better, with a profit warning at the end of January.

Weak advertising sales in the publishing division were the main reason behind the disappointment. In the six months to December 2015, revenues increased from £10.2 million to £12.1 million and the loss before tax fell from £998,000 to £354,000.

There was a small net cash position at the end of the period and £750,000 was raised in February through a loan from the ever-supportive Herald Investment Trust (HRI). The company should still make a full-year profit.

Ten Alps continues to make add-on acquisitions. Corporate video producer Straker Films has been acquired for £110,000 plus deferred consideration relating to a percentage of revenues achieved in the 12 months after acquisition.

Ten Alps intends to change its name to Zinc Media Group later in the year and the new website can be found here.

At the time of the original recommendation, N+1 Singer forecast a 2015-16 profit of £1.12 million rising to £1.83 million the following year. These figures have been downgraded to £300,000 in 2015-16 and £1.3 million in 2016-17. That means the shares are trading on 18 times prospective 2015-16 earnings, falling to six the following year. Still a good recovery bet.

Changing name is a positive as TEN ALPS has for so long been associated with disappointment and failure as far as its investors have been concerned but the company seems to be on track to changing not only that record but its name as well. The sooner the better imo.

Article in The Daily Telegraph today speaking of the casting company used to hire extras for the new star wars film have raised £462k from angel investors and that the industry continues to storm ahead of other areas in the UK economy. So it seems there is indeed strong demand going forward which should all help TAL to grow quickly now.

Heaven forbid. Someone has finally tipped Ten Alps, a serial underperformer.

Former AIM writer of the year Andrew Hore picked it as one the five AIM stocks he thinks will shine in 2016 for the Interactive Investor website.

[...]

It reads as follows: TV programme producer, publisher and digital communications services provider Ten Alps (TAL) has a good business, but it has been hampered by a weak balance sheet. That has changed following the refinancing during the summer, which also included the acquisition of TV documentaries producer Reef TV. Ten Alps has pro forma net cash and is in a strong position to grow. Serial entrepreneur Luke Johnson, who has an 11.9% stake, joined the board at the time of the refinancing.

Ten Alps has got this far because it had the backing of Herald Investment Trust (HRI), which has consistently provided loans and acquired shares as Ten Alps tried to sort it out. Herald has 34.5% of the company and Artemis Alpha Trust (ATS) has 15.6%. These shareholders will also back Ten Alps in its expansion plans.

Management is seeking to grow the television programme production business organically and through acquisitions. Elsewhere, the strategy is to focus on its most profitable market sectors and expand the digital content and events operations through acquisition.

N+1 Singer forecasts a 2015-16 profit of £1.12 million, rising to £1.83 million the following year. The shares, which have drifted back after a 10-for-one share consolidation, are trading on less than six times prospective 2016-17 earnings. Hopefully, the broker and Ten Alps have been sensible enough to set a realistic and achievable target. The market is obviously unsure at the moment and this provides a buying opportunity.

Unless your want to pay 63% plus above the placing price this is one for the watch list for now , effectively a new investor lockout unless I have missed something ?

I think any investor left with TAL have lost the will to live over the past years, as they watched it decline in line, much like Bob G over the years.

Just bought a few more of these, takes me to 4.4 mil, over weight here but lets see. Any of you more experienced Ten Alps investors got any realistic targets for this one?

The fund raising seems to have bolstered this but with the CP now in control, and the terms of the transaction investors should BEWARE imo but DYOR. Seems like there will be a short trem bounce though.
