Cheers Paul, made for great listening. Just love Tom's continued enthusiasm 5 years in, allied to a multi billion dollar/pound company ambition.Who's for a £50+ share value within ten years?spud

Pauly yes I bet you skipped the questions that made for uncomfortable reading and for you personally.

Its about time you asked the awkward questions in these interviews instead of asking all the niceities and then letting the interviewee off the hook.

The CR thread is in Civil War today because of your incompetent interview over the weekend.

I will be asking serious questions of your boss about you and your conduct.

Just published - here is my interview today with Tom Burnet, CEO of Accesso.
It's very long, but I was happy to let him talk, as all very interesting stuff.

I had to skip some of the questions asked, due to time constraints, so apologies if I didn't get round to asking your question, but we covered all the main themes in reader questions.

I hope people find it interesting. I produce these interviews free, for general interest, in shares that I think are interesting. I hold a long position in ACSO.



Regards, Paul.

Six Flags have just announced expansion into Vietnam, with a new theme park and water park. ACSO will no doubt follow....

3rd eye - Stop ruining this thread with your petty crusade & don't bother replying because I've (and I suspect many others if they have any sense) have filtered you.spud

3rd eye,

Don't be silly!

Anyway let's not clutter up this thread.

Paul.

Hi Davidosh, did you get any joy with Tom coming to Mello? Knowing how much interstate travelling he does these days IMO it could be a stretch (unless he has plans to see Merlin perhaps?) but he did do a Proactive Investors event I went to last year.

[paulypilot] 19/3/2016 16:26

I'm interviewing Tom Burnet, CEO of Accesso shortly (Tues next week - 22 March)

If you wish to submit a question for me to put to Tom, here is the link to do so;



I can't guarantee to ask all questions, but usually cover nearly all, where time permits, and if they are relevant.

Regards, Paul.

Blimey Itchy, I wish you'd stop beating about the bush! ;))spud

A pity, but I don't think there's much to it. As Davidosh says, he has a number of other interests, and probably found himself stretched too thin. Certainly Imaginatik, where he's NE Chairman, has had its problems, and given that he's rescued it in the past with his own cash, he's maybe decided he should watch what's happening a little more closely.

Igbert - stop worrying about Leonard - he's still employed, and still has a ton of shares. He must be pushing 70 so I expect he just wants a chance to relax a bit and hand over to the next generation.

Matt Cooper was a non exec and to be honest the Aim companies that he has run have been struggling so maybe he needs to concentrate time there.

[spud] 18/3/2016 15:20

Could be because he was poached for doing such a great job or......perhaps he wasn't achieving his KPIs and was asked to leave.

Only the Company knows!

Indeed - first Leonard Sim, now Cooper.
Always best to manage these things by conterminously appointing a replacement.
Or people start suggesting Board bust-ups.....

[janeann] 18/3/2016 15:07

The Board of accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider to leisure, entertainment and cultural markets, announces that Non-Executive Director Matt Cooper will stand down from the Board with immediate effect. Mr Cooper joined the Board in 2012 and is resigning to pursue other business interests. The Board has initiated the search for a replacement.


very odd timing - given the results rns of 2 days ago.

[glyn10] 17/3/2016 11:56

Agreed.
I would much sooner the profits were reinvested to grow the business.

[spud] 17/3/2016 11:06

Yup, I doubt we'll see any dividends for at least 5 years, not that I'm bothered if we continue to grow @ circa 35% pa.

I note from the cashflow statement that they generated almost enough cash to pay the repayments on the bank loan....
Divis ? Some way off I think.

[Just saying.....]

[davidosh] 17/3/2016 10:45

A nice mention for the top performer and most consistent on Aim over the last ten years....

[glyn10] 17/3/2016 10:24

I always liked Peel Hunt !

[rivaldo] 17/3/2016 10:18

Even better...Peel Hunt have increased their target price to 1280p (from 1200p):
