I do think that shareholders should e mail SV.
To have bragged that he took 500k out of the company beggers belief. He was supposed to have been sitting on his shares when it went down.

This IPO was a disaster and along with Tiger i was in at 74p.

That was an exit route for the founders to get out some cash. We were sucked in.
I hope he blows his (our) 500k and we should do all we can to expose his new company to bad press.
Lets contact the business press or the IC for example and see if they can throw some of this around.
We need to keep an eye out because he will try and float this new company off. i wonder who is backers are ? (They were the ones that made the cash last time) The Chairman was one i think can we find out who the angel investors were? No doubt they are back for more.

Disgusted with this.

I think CEO's of PLC's should be made to make a Dragons Den style presentation on record for all potential investors to view.

asparks,

That is why I bought them. I had no affinity to Voller. Indeed having met Stephen Voller a couple of years ago, I didn't think the business model was sustainable. I am an opportunist investor and look for all sorts of opportunities. I bought CRK at just over the price they were paying out in cash, and sold the rump after, making a 10% profit. I'm in AUR at the moment, and expect to get a similar return. Galahad made a 20% return, and we got our initial investment back in weeks. If you bide your time, and watch out for these opportunities they vcan be rewarding.

As for timetables. A company will announce a dividend, and will give a Record Date ( otherwise known as Books Closed). The actual date that matters is the XD date which is always on a Wednesday, and is two days before the Record Date.

VLR was an exception in that the payout was a dividend rather than a Capital event. Thankfully, my wife is a standard rate taxpayer, so the shares were transferred into her name, otherwise it wouldn't have worked so well.

Hope that helps.

fair enough, seems I was wrong. I still cant understand it though. Basically new investors were able to purchase for less than 2p even after the RNS and were liable to receive a div of 2p per share.

As far as I know Divs are usually paid to existing shareholders - not new investors who have no interest in the long term prospects of the company?

I have returned from a few days off and am trying to make sense of VLR's statement on 1 October that the outcome of their search for more funding is uncertain.
Are they seriously expecting investors in today's conditions to throw good money after bad ?
What all of us want (unless on the VLR payroll) is a distribution of the cash they have left !

What's with the "What's New" listings on the front page of voller.com?

Looks like nonsense words, but maybe they are anagrams. If Carol Vorderman is involved in this company then I would expect all major news releases to be made as anagrams so that only intelligent investors sign up.

Asparks I have never invested in Voller (or even punted!) but have watched its progress - should that be regress? - over several years. Good product potential but weak management imho virtually never adds to up to success.

Amazes me time and time again how many investors buy on p/e, product and/or cash but without checking out whether they rate management.

Voller Energy - SPECULATIVE BUY
Companies: VLR

20/07/2005
'We will be the first fuel cell play to reach profitability,' claims Stephen Voller, chief executive of Voller Energy, which floated on AIM with a £9.1m funding at 74p in February. The Basingstoke-based company makes portable fuel cell systems for use as battery chargers and mobile generators. Its VE100 – a 100-watt portable fuel cell system that runs off rechargeable hydrogen-infused metal hydride cylinders – has already launched and might well deliver meaningful sales this year. The VE100 uses a fuel cell stack and incorporates Voller's power output technology and integration know-how – and a forthcoming next-generation product should deliver far more power, helping Voller attack a wider market for portable generators. Voller has also side-stepped a perennial fuel cell industry problem – supplying hydrogen to power fuel cells – with the recent acquisition of KAT-Chem, a developer of hydrogen reformer technology. Reformers extract hydrogen from propane, liquid petroleum gas and butane, and the deal means Voller's systems can use existing fuel infrastructures without having to wait around for a new hydrogen infrastructure to emerge, a crucial point given Voller's target markets of building services, camping and boating. Voller also boasts a letter of intent with tool hire star Speedy Hire, which will be the launch customer in the UK for the VE100 and larger brethren the VE1000. For June 2006, house broker Arden Partners predicts pre-tax losses of £2.3m on only £994,000 sales, ahead of a £2.25m deficit from a top line £2.4m the following year. For June 2008, however, Voller might well score first profits of £600,000 on £14.5m sales. Voller offers investors exposure to the imminent commercialisation of the fuel cell industry. The shares have speculative appeal.

H P ... I'm amazed this company gets the attention it does (typical of BBs, I suppose) when its model and execution are the weakest of the 11 UK-listed fuel cell companies.
Maybe the presence of one or two high profile investors attracts others? (I know what attracted you, though!!)

More bile from paulypilot!

INVESTORS NEED TO LOOK AT INX AND SEA THEN ARG AND RAF ETC ETC.

Ramp ramp ramp.

The fact is this is a dog and cash will be less because the co will have burnt more since the period end. The fact is they are stuffed they are having to pay fees now to look at their options by the time that has been reported cash will be depleted and they know full well its difficult to fund at the moment because of the credit crunch,

Been there seen it worn that shirt.
