Remember gone XDiv today for 8.8p so in reality price is unchanged. Agm statement should be released later.

No AGM trading update? Not promising..

RCT,

They have released a Agm Trading Update every year since 2011 so I'd be surprised if they didn't.

[rcturner2] 23/2/2016 10:08

Last year they issued a short statement about current trading on AGM day, I assume that they will do the same this week.

[cockerhoop] 23/2/2016 09:44

They sent out an enigmatic tweet yesterday:

We have something exciting brewing @Zytronic, stay tuned for news…..

I'm staying tuned :-)

Very high volume yesterday.

Anyone going to the AGM on Thursday? Tyne & Wear is a few hundred miles away for me, so any reports would be appreciated!

Nice couple of posts above in 1101 and 1102 - ZYT is hopefully just at the start of what could be a long road of growth and expansion.

Looking firmer before next weeks update and ex dividend.

Zytronic brings multi-touch to the smaller screen

ZXY150multitouchcontroller Wednesday 17th February 2016 09:00am
Newcastle, UK, Monday, 15 February 2016. Zytronic, a leader in advanced, rugged Projected Capacitive Technology (PCT™ and MPCT™) touch sensors is unveiling a new multi-touch controller with a faster response time and gesture recognition support for smaller self-service touchscreen applications.

Optimised for displays of 22” diagonal and less, the new Zytronic ZXY150 touch controller is designed to offer tablet-like multi-touch functionality on smaller screens for publicly used interfaces in kiosks, ATMs and vending machines. The ZXY150 provides native support for the latest multi-touch capable operating systems (OS), with on-board firmware featuring 10-point touch and palm rejection functionality. Used in combination with Zytronic’s patented, customisable ZYBRID® touch sensors, the controller will operate reliably through 10mm thick toughened glass, allowing unattended self-service kiosks to provide iPad levels of performance and responsiveness, in systems designed to perform reliably 24/7 on the streets.



The new ZXY150 completes the Zytronic Multi-Touch controller family, including the ZXY200 and ZXY300 which are optimised for use with sensors and displays of larger size. Zytronic can now provide multi-touch capability for its entire range of touch sensors, from 5 – 85 inches, in a near limitless range of designs.

The footprint of the new controller measures 76mm x 66mm. Connection and power are provided via a USB mini-B connector. The ZXY150 provides “plug-and-play” HID level support for the more recent Windows and Linux operating systems, with a simple, user-friendly software application (ZyConfig) downloadable from Zytronic’s website to aid integration and allow adjustment of the controller’s sensitivity settings if required.

Commenting, Ian Crosby, Sales and Marketing Director said, “The new touch control board extends full multi-touch functionality to the full range of touch sensors we offer. The ZXY150 offers fast, reliable touch recognition, gesture support and excellent palm rejection, allowing kiosk and instrument designers alike to give their users an iPad-like experience irrespective of the environment or application

Touchscreens: future technology goes beyond the glass.

[oldnotbold] 17/2/2016 09:16

Last year the company put out a two line commentary on the first four months trading at the AGM. This year the AGM will be held on 25th Feb. Worth keeping an eye on.

American expansion news:



"Zytronic Expands Presence With First U.S. Office, Key Sales Appointment
By SCN Staff On February 10, 2016

Zytronic has opened its first office in the United States. Located in Atlanta, GA, the office houses key personnel responsible for managing the company’s growth in North America.

“North America – and the U.S. in particular – represents an enormous opportunity for Zytronic’s future growth,” said Mark Cambridge, CEO of Zytronic. “With feet on the ground in the U.S., we are now able to dedicate additional sales and technical support to this region that continues to play an increasingly important role in our company’s expansion in North America.”

Zytronic is executing its North American expansion not just in the foundation of Zytronic Inc. and the establishment of its Atlanta office, but also with the hiring of key personnel. Llavar Mindley has joined the company as sales engineer for North America, working alongside regional manager, Martin Salter and sales & technical support engineer, Scott Durden. Mindley brings to Zytronic a decade of experience in electronics, applications engineering and technical sales. He will leverage this skillset to provide exemplar support for Zytronic’s customers in North America. ”Llavar is a great addition to the company and we’re fortunate to have him aboard,” said Cambridge. “His experience and enthusiasm are a great match for the team in Atlanta, and we look forward to accomplishing great things together.”

Cheers Gengulpus yes it is you then. Some very good pieces from you over on the TMF. In fact your my favourite poster over there, tend to get Pauly who is too loyal to his companys and holding onto long, and david whos portfolio is far too big to be managed correctly. Keep the good work up.

Lets not fall out just because i have a shorter time range for trading/investing than you.

cheers

[gengulphus] 10/2/2016 09:14

market sniper,

Yes, I post under the same name both here and on TMF. I don't post as much here, but I've been around for a long time and am fairly familiar with the local wildlife! Best ignored as you say - and by the way, feeding them is not ignoring them...

CASH being the operative word, Cash is FACT profit is an OPINION.

BUT, dont be fooled that just because its a sound company it wont be pulled down with the rest.

[rcturner2] 10/2/2016 08:16

In the dot com boom companies were valued at prices that made no sense at all, PE ratios of 100 and more, companies with no sales or profits to speak of rated in the 100s of millions.

This is not the case here. ZYT is a stable well run business that is not expensively rated. They have net cash on the balance sheet and pay half the earnings as a dividend. They are in a growth sector and clearly have good tech that is delivering sales growth.

[market sniper3] 10/2/2016 08:12

Hmmmmmm good retort, were obviously looking at differing time frames for our investing/trading.

I think Ive seen some very good pieces on the Motley Fool from you.

I may be mixing you up with someone with a similar name but if your the person i think you are keep the good work up and ignore shauney above, advfns resident junkie and his friend who just like to bully posters.

Trully feel sorry for the former a once good solid performer, but once the drugs get hold of him, sigh.

[gengulphus] 10/2/2016 07:47

Yep they all said that during the Dot Comma and 2008.........are they around anymore??????.

Some aren't, some are - and a fair proportion of those that are have turned into multi-baggers. That's why my proviso is important and why I stressed it by emboldening the word "provided"!

Dont get me wrong i love this company and its products, but after 30 + years of market trading you realise when to accept that market psychology speaks far more than a solid balance sheet.

It doesn't speak - it shouts! I.e. very loud for a while, but then it exhausts itself, the solid balance sheet starts to be heard again and the share recovers very nicely. Provided the balance sheet really is solid!

For "market trading" with its suggestion of a fairly short time horizon, you're probably right - market psychology ceasing to shout may well be beyond that horizon. But for long-term investing, such shouting can present good opportunities.
