Posted at 29/10/2014 15:32 by the stigologist lets hope he is a better businessman than an investoronly ever seen him squander money in his 'tech stock' ramps |
Posted at 20/10/2014 07:17 by norbus Curtain rings are rattling for ACTAWhichever corner you turn to, ACTA has been a story of lies and chicanery; So many innocent punters and professionals taken in by an Italian B/S story. overlaid on AIM SHAME ON LSE for helping investors be conned |
Posted at 20/10/2014 06:52 by the stigologist sounds a bit dubiousnever heard of this legal claim before not sure how they can say 'it's provided for' that is a massive chunk of their spare capital and it will make any investors doubly wary of investing in these muppets really looking like almost game over here the lack of response from the chief pumper demonstrates once again his lack of integrity |
Posted at 13/10/2014 12:50 by pearcy2 Seems like too much 'cloak and dagger' for me Norbus; but, fair enough, investors have to make up their own minds on these things. All the direct correspondence I had with the company to date has been straight and above board from what I can see. It's been a case of getting volume sales going now for sometime, hence the share price drop... Will they achieve meaningful sales/profits before they need more cash, who knows, only time will tell. cheers |
Posted at 01/10/2014 15:55 by mattjos just released by Helioicentris (Ticker is XE:A1MMHE if you want to follow).Since they are one of ACTA's biggest customers, it is relevant (see the ACTA RNS 28/2/12 & then RNS 21/11/12 with regards the agreement with FutureE). Heliocentris has laid its plans well in advance and looks to be moving ahead rapidly now Key highlights: • Half year sales increased by EUR 2.6 million to EUR 4.5 million (+143%) compared to the half year 2013. • Heliocentris secures first large order in Myanmar of EUR 5 million for the mobile phone operator Telenor. A follow-on order of around EUR 3 million was received in August. • Heliocentris takes over FutureE Fuel Cell Solutions GmbH, a specialist for stationary fuel cell power supply solutions based in Wendlingen, Baden-Württembe • Heliocentris wins an order of around EUR 1 million from the Federal State of Brandenburg to fit or retrofit 25 based station sites with emergency power backup based on fuel cells. • In January and April Heliocentris places convertible bonds totaling a par value of around EUR 10 million with strategic investors. • Management expects to at least triple sales 2014 compared to the previous fiscal year. Ayad Abul-Ella, CEO of Heliocentris AG highlights: "Until now the fiscal year 2014 has been very positive compared to the disappointing year 2013. We were able to generate major orders in the business unit ICT. The supply of 150 turnkey hybrid energy systems for the base station sites in Myanmar for more than 3 million EUR is the largest single order for Heliocentris. First subsequent orders from Myanmar, a won tender by the Land Brandenburg for the fitting an retrofitting of emergency power supply systems as well as follow up orders by "du" in the UAE and "Cummins", the leading supplier of diesel generators drastically help to reach our revenue target of EUR 20 million in 2014." The first half of the current fiscal year has been accordingly characterized by the business with existing customers, first large scale orders by new customers as well as the successful capital raising via the placement of convertible bonds totaling a par value of around EUR 10 million. This has been a substantial part of the funding of Heliocentris. With the acquisition of one of the most important fuel cell companies in Germany, FutureE Fuel Cell Solutions GmbH, Heliocentris has a done a major step in completing the solutions portfolio for hybrid power solutions thereby extending the market presence in the network based telecommunications market. In the first half of 2014, Heliocentris recorded a significant increase in sales compared to the same period last year from TEUR 1,844 in 2013 to TEUR 4,476 in 2014. This increase is primarily due to the signing of major contracts with customers in Myanmar and Germany in the segment "Information & Communication Technologies (ICT) reflected in the sales of TEUR 3,578 in the first half 2014. Based on the higher sales contribution of the business segment "Information & Communication Technologies (ICT)", compared to last year, and the impact of the related lower gross margins out of the so called "Greenfield business", the adjusted sales related gross margin decreased from 45 % to 31%. Greenfield projects generate a lower gross margin, as they include a high percentage of third party components and external services compared to other projects, which results in a lower added value of Heliocentris. Total costs below gross profit amounted to TEUR 8,713 (30.06.2013: TEUR 7,777) in the first half of the year. This further increase is mainly due to the increase in personnel expenses from TEUR 4,829 in the comparable period 2013 to TEUR 5,512 in the first half of 2014 which is to a large extend due to the hiring of additional personal resources in the second half 2013. This was inevitable to ensure the acquisition of large scale customers and the implementation of projects. Other costs decreased, compared to the same period last year, from TEUR 2,592 in 2013 to TEUR 2,332 in the first half 2014. This decrease in other costs results, among other factors, from lower Sales and Marketing expenses as well as external services. The net loss increased to TEUR 6,409 in the first half of 2014 (30.06.2013: TEUR 5,712) due to higher interest expenses of TEUR 350 as a result of the convertible bonds issued in the first half of the year. The Management is confident that the rise of the net loss in the second half of the year will be significantly reduced with the expected increase in sales and will therefore remain below the level of the previous year. The Group's cash and cash equivalents increased from TEUR 1,429 at the beginning of the year to TEUR 3,980 as per 30.06.2014. This increase is primarily caused by the financing measures taken during the first six months of the year, specifically through the placement of a convertible bond within 2 tranches in January and April. Based on the current order intake for the second half 2014 the Management assumes further positive development of the business, Heliocentris expects to at least triple sales in comparison to the previous year. In addition, the Management expects increased sales to result in a reduction of the losses on an EBIT level compared the last fiscal year. In the light of the successes in Myanmar and in particular the good progress in Africa, Europe and in the OEM business the Management sees a further significant increase in revenues in 2015 thereby improving the EBIT notably compared to 2014. |
Posted at 18/9/2014 09:16 by pugugly If there is any value in the IP I would expect a low ball takeout -or possibly cheaper to wait for liquidation when the key bits could be bought without managment baggage (imo)The fact that no sign of a bid and it looks like knowledgeable major investors may stil be unloading suggests that the technology while intereting does not have massive scaleability. Can any techies advise on the correctness or otherwise of this hypothesis |

Posted at 18/8/2014 18:52 by euclid5 Norbus take note of report below....atleasr Acta has not falle into administration....anAnother British first goes west as Americans grab hydrogen pioneer SCIENTISTS at the sprawling Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire have a proud record of firsts. They helped to launch the Herschel space observatory and were instrumental in the hunt for the Higgs boson. They have another potential winner on their hands in the form of Cella Energy, a company set up at the laboratory to commercialise a new way of storing hydrogen, which many experts predict will be the fuel of the future. Cella's storage material could one day be used in clean cars, aircraft and power stations - a market believed to be worth up to $80bn (£48bn). The company had high hopes, a strong board of directors and powerful backers. Now, however, in a story that echoes many British technology firsts that stumbled in the commercial world, control of the company has passed to American investors after a painful insolvency hxxp://www.thesunday |
Posted at 28/6/2014 18:58 by norbus You can reproduce it in lights at Piccadilly Circus. The company has always been flawed, due to the cavalier management more concerned about their salaries and life styles than the investors; That kind of company usually fails. |
Posted at 26/3/2014 22:16 by sleepinggiant Mattjos just filter the muppet like all else on this thread. ITM powerless has raised more money than Greece and still doesn't make a profit, well the board make lovely profits from investors money every year.
