greengiant, there are three Israeli tech stocks all undervalued at present, this one, and also LEAD and MWE.

Cannot knock them on fundamentals, plenty of profits and growth :)

[greengiant] 12/7/2006 08:56

PP - No doubt that this company is undervalued. Bought 9k lastnight (trade never showed?) and then again this morning.

On fundamentals, I wish all my investments looked like this.....

I presume no CGT taper relief is available on this one due to the dual listing.

Visonic

Pre-Close Trading Update

Visonic (LSE: VSC.L; TASE: VSC.TA), the international developer and
manufacturer of electronic security systems (alarms) and home management
systems, is pleased to make the following trading update prior to the Group
entering its close period.

The encouraging start to the year noted in the AGM statement continued through
the remainder of the first half of the financial year.

Business developments during the period included the launch of an upgraded
version of the Group's flagship product, the PowerMax security and home
management system. The upgraded version is called the PowerMax Pro and sales
are expected to begin soon.

The Group also significantly strengthened its position in the home healthcare
market by entering the rapidly growing telemedicine sector through a strategic
partnership agreement with TMT Telemedicine Web Medical Centre (TMT).

In March, Visonic announced that it had become the second Israeli company
traded on the London Stock Exchange to perform a dual listing on the Tel Aviv
Stock Exchange.

Dr Avi Shachrai, CEO and President of Visonic said:

"At the AGM in May the Chairman, Mr. Yaacov Kotlicki, reported that the Group
had made an encouraging start to the new financial year. I am pleased to say
that this trend has continued through the first half. The Group continues to
build a foundation for long term success with further progress in the fields of
advanced hospital systems, home healthcare and telemedicine."

The Group intends to announce its Interim Results for the six months to 30 June
2006 on Thursday, 6 September 2006.

What was ?

[bengo] 23/5/2006 08:13

well that was short and sweet!

[bengo] 19/5/2006 10:47

Hi GHF,
Also bought in myself yesterday (though my buy showed as a sell 9000 @ 86) on same hopes as yourself.
Good luck.

[glasshalfull] 19/5/2006 08:39

Hi Bengo

I bought in yesterday.
The fall of 17% in May looks overdone in comparison to many other AIM companies and the wider market.

The deciding factor for me was the fact that the AGM is scheduled for next week and having had the company on my watchlist since January I'm also hoping there will be a positive update on trading following very impressive full year results.


Regards
GHF

Visonic has an AGM scheduled for 23rd May and hopefully the Chairman will re-iterate the company's guidance for 2006 and so strengthen the City's expectations.

Here's hoping !

[liarspoker] 10/4/2006 09:05

Bought into RCG this AM instead of VSC.

It'll be interesting to compare the performance of the two in a few months time.

[papalpower] 22/3/2006 08:58

Excellent Results !!

Visonic's Chairman, Yaacov Kotlicki, commented:

"The Group had an excellent year with strong sales and profit growth, cash
generation and an improved operational performance.

While it is still very early in the new financial year, 2006 has begun well
with the signing of a strategic agreement with Group4Securicor and an agreement
to enter the rapidly growing telemedicine market. In addition, the Board has
approved a dual listing of Visonic's shares on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange to
encourage increased share trading.

As a result of the momentum in the Group and its cash generative qualities the
Board will also be recommending a dividend for the financial year 2006. We
remain confident of the Group's prospects for the year ahead."

Visonic expands into the Telemedicine market with New Strategic Alliance

Visonic (LSE: VSC), the international developer and manufacturer of electronic
security systems (alarms) and home management systems, announces it has
significantly strengthened its position in the home healthcare market by
entering the rapidly growing telemedicine sector through a strategic
partnership agreement with TMT Telemedicine Web Medical Centre (TMT).

The agreement signed with the controlling shareholders of TMT, establishes a
partnership between Visonic and TMT, within the framework of a company called
Visonic -TMT Telemedicine SA, (with head offices in Lyon, France). In exchange
for an investment of Euro 711,366, Visonic has gained a stake of 12.15% in the
newly formed company. This alliance will give Visonic an enhanced marketing and
sales platform with which to expand into the telemedicine field, on the basis
of TMT's unique and comprehensive package of solutions in the area of home
healthcare and telemedicine.

TMT was founded in 2003 in Lyon France, in order to develop service solutions
for home care, based on advanced telemedicine technologies. The founders are
experienced professionals in the security and medical fields, among them are
the former owners of CIPE, a successful French security company, acquired a few
years ago by ADT. TMT has successfully formed a package of solutions, including
wireless devices for remote medical testing, secured transmission and
processing of medical data. TMT has already started to sell its system in
France.

The system which will be used in Visonic-TMT's telemedicine product offering is
the next generation of Visonic's Amber Home Healthcare system, which will use
bluetooth technology to communicate with an array of wireless diagnostic
equipment. The Amber's ease-of-use is field proven and ideally suited for the
elderly and disabled at home, who are Visonic-TMT's target market. Visonic -TMT
markets include local government, insurance, service providers and healthcare
professionals worldwide.

Commenting, Dr. Avi Shachrai, CEO and President of Visonic, said:

'We are extremely pleased to have forged a partnership with TMT and to have
established this joint company. Home Healthcare is one of the pillars of our
growth strategy and the TMT telemedicine platform will broaden our home
healthcare capabilities and enable us to offer comprehensive solutions to a
growing market.'

Commenting, Mr. Jean Claude Bensoussan, Chairman of the Board of Visonic-TMT
said:

'TMT sees in the contribution of Visonic's advanced technologies and strong
production capabilities as a major milestone in its growth strategy. Visonic
TMT is already in contact with governments, major telemedicine and home
healthcare service providers worldwide. Once these contacts mature, management
hopes it may have a significant impact on the company's growth.'

Good news today on the Securicor Deal !

[papalpower] 19/1/2006 12:05

The MM's managed to take a few sells yesterday, which would have eased their need a little, but the buyers are back today, and with stock tight its moving in response.

[papalpower] 18/1/2006 07:59

Corproate Synergy has reacted to positive trading statements by repeating its buy recommendations on Hallin Marine Subsea Resources with a target price of 80p and on Visonic with a target increased from 100p to 120p.

[papalpower] 18/1/2006 07:47

From uk-analyst.com

"Shares in Israeli electronic security systems maker Visonic moved 11p ahead to 109.5p following news that the company was trading ahead of expectations. The company said group turnover and pre-tax profits for the year to December 31st were now expected to beat consensus forecasts. In a pre-close update, the group said trading since the interim results were released in September had been very positive. While the group's core products have continued to generate healthy revenues during the period, Visonic delighted the market with news that it had also successfully expanded into new markets, obtaining patent approvals for technological products in the process."

[papalpower] 18/1/2006 01:11

Corporate Synergy put out a buy rating this week so it seems, ahead of the trading update.

[papalpower] 17/1/2006 15:29

Lovely breakout happening and is finds a range to suit the performance VSC is giving out.

[papalpower] 17/1/2006 14:49

And some more too, I think it cannot be long before some analysts spot this one and their performance.

[papalpower] 17/1/2006 11:08

On the move up again now.
