Directorate Change

Touch Group plc announces that Nicholas Levene has, because of other business commitments, today resigned as a Non-Executive Director to the Company. The Board would like to thank Nicholas for his contribution during his tenure and wish him well for the future.

How troubled financier lost £720k on one game of cricket

The gamble with betting giant IG Index is understood to have predicted a spread of runs by one of the teams in the match in Johannesburg, which South Africa won by eight wickets. But Mr Levene, 45, lost £10,000 for each of the 72 runs outside the range he covered. Now, IG Index, founded by millionaire former Tory donor Stuart Wheeler, has issued a High Court writ demanding £957,000 from Mr Levene.

Three weeks ago he is understood to have emailed Touch Group, a small listed technology company, to resign from the board explaining that he needed to 'organise his personal affairs'.

well if they make a small profit eventully , not relying on mr issacs . then from a 2 million loss it would be quiet a swing and you would expect a share price alot higher.

Isn't this a substantially reoriented business heading towards a small maiden profit in the next year or two? Or are you just not persuaded by this management under any circumstances?

Perhaps the Sharescope figure is a tenth of a penny and I misread it........

[u813061] 24/6/2009 11:01

Same old rubbish statement. No profits. Avoid.

Beats me. But I like today's statement. Very promising.

[lee111] 28/5/2009 22:49

how do sharescope get to eps of 10p im a long term holder of this one.cheers lee

[don carter] 27/5/2009 09:25

Wow, a bunch of buys today! A nice rise in share price so far. Is this far-sighted investment recognizing that this may be a profit-making company by the next results? Sharescope has a 10p eps forecast........

[rossstar3] 06/4/2009 16:51

profit will not come to soon , patience maybe rewarded.

[yohoho] 22/1/2009 14:24

Good money after bad....

Herald already hold 10.5 million shares (was 9.5% of the Company prior to the new placing).

Vincent has persuaded an insti to invest a bit more at 3p so they must have been convinced by the business plan.

A merry Xmas from Mr Isaacs to his team:

'The Company has been notified that on 23rd December Vincent Isaacs, Executive Chairman, gifted 2,605,000 ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company (*Ordinary Shares*) to a number of individuals including certain directors of the Company.'



Hopefully the portfolio (pharmacutical / medical element) will afford TOU a level of protection against a prospectively awful global economy in 2009. I may top-up after the final results are published if things look promising as I need to average down!

[lee111] 30/10/2008 08:59

think you will see them break even this year and nice profit next year as the Near completion of investment programme in infrastructure, operations team, systems capability and product base stop soaking up cash.As for the business thinks are getting better Independently-commissioned, pharmaceutical company-supported editorial and reprints now account for more than 70% (55% 2007) of revenue re-prints, a high margin business, now account for 10% (5% 2007)and company-supported editorial accounts for 60% (50% 2007)allso Gross margin increased by 10% so we are getting there and in difficult times that we are in to.If they can keep costs down and sales moving a bit more then they will hit profit have faith like me.as allways dyor.

[ashbox] 29/10/2008 08:13

Another top-up by Mr. Isaacs of over a million shares at a significant premium to yesterdays price. He obviously still believes in TOU - wonder if he will ever take the Company private as it is basically his money that is keeping it going?

[seletvv] 30/9/2008 21:44

Slow as you go?! More like hitting real value soon. IE, 0p!

[lee111] 25/9/2008 20:58

its a slow as you go 1 this share but will come good bottom draw for now
i like the The American Heart Hospital Journal buy no price though it has
a 36000 quarterly publication primarily requesting physicians, among them cardiologists internists, cardiovascular surgeons, and selected hospitals and laboratory administrators.think touch could do a lot with it and a nice link up with its own websites .new clients lets hope.have few shares in these 180000 happy to hold for few more years.

[ashbox] 25/9/2008 09:54

Blimey, some news is out for anyone still interested or out there. Looks like there will be no divvy this year ;-) and the shares will have to stay firmly restrained in that bottom drawer for a few more years.

[seletvv] 18/7/2008 23:07

If only something would happen. Same old rubbish really.

[rossstar3] 16/7/2008 16:35

BUY OUT COULD BE ON THE Cards here

[rossstar3] 30/6/2008 13:00

the next results will be the best for a number of years.

[rossstar3] 25/6/2008 13:51

solid statement but no figures
