Sounded like the complete journey i.e. Airlines etc etcAlso sounded as if second half numbers are going to be stunningAdded to that new software advances all sounds good

Are you sure? Tom took the company off SETS about 2 years ago due to the havoc caused in a thin market.spud

[wildchild] 14/10/2016 08:12

Wow ! ACSO is now on sets. If a company as illiquid as this is now SETS MM , then why
don't the LSE just banish all mm stocks and make every stock SETS ?

[spud] 13/10/2016 08:31

Nice, thank you. Some great takeaways in there including pretty strong pointers towards substantial acquisitions in the near future.spud

Edison just sent out an e-mail re this interview with Tom Burnet

The move from just queuing systems to hosted bulk e-ticketing (presumably with full audit & mgt reporting) was a stroke of genius - they can expand that ad infinitum

Amati VCT2 released their interims on 30th September, and had this to say re ACSO which says it all:

"The best performer over the period was Accesso Technology Group ("Accesso"), a business with which long-standing shareholders will be familiar. The shares ended the period 70% higher following a strong start to 2016 with good organic growth across all divisions and eighteen new contract wins, including deals for Accesso Passport, the group's hosted ticketing ecommerce solution, with the Henry Ford Museum in Michigan and the Pacific Science Centre in Seattle. In addition to these new client wins, Passport continues to be rolled-out across Merlin Entertainment's global estate. With over 90% of revenues billed in US Dollars from North American customers, the attractions of Accesso have been enhanced by the post-Brexit sterling weakness. As this is a very significant position in the portfolio (10.7%), movements in the share price will tend to dwarf the impact of other stocks. However, we are reluctant to reduce our exposure yet, as we still see good opportunities ahead for the business, and it would be hard to find a new investment in something as attractive."

That's just spud getting out and in again ;¬)

[luckymouse] 03/10/2016 13:53

amazing the way this moves

[panic investor] 03/10/2016 10:09

Strange start to the day - VERY MINI reversal.

from8to800, this company basically gives what the clients want - MORE MONEY and what their clients customers want - LESS TIME QUEUEING WITH MORE FUN

Added to that a bit of technology that most attraction people and their kids will love on their wrist

[from8to800] 03/10/2016 09:44

The more I read about this company's product the more convinced I am that this is the future. Still plenty of upside potencial as people (and institutions) become aware of it's existence IMO.

Standard Life's Harry Nimmo gives ACSO as one of his three stock picks "with a global reach":



"Nimmo: The third and final stock is accesso (ACSO), maybe not a name you've heard of. But if you go to visitor attractions, theme parks and the like, you might be interacting with accesso. It's the mobile phone connection with the visitor attraction manager. They will organize your day. They will sell you tickets. They will give you discounts on food.

They will put you in the queue, so you know when to turn up and not at all wait around like the old days of visitor attractions. They deal with theme parks all around the world. They do skiing, they do football clubs and they are really gaining traction. Recently they got a major contract with Merlin who are the second largest visitor attraction companies in the world. There's lots to come in this company. It's very exciting."

[rivaldo] 29/9/2016 07:18

Good stuff in today's trading statement from Merlin, primarily:

"Exploiting strategic synergies

·2016 has continued to see the global implementation of the accesso® 'Passport' ticketing platform and we expect to have completed all major sites by the end of 2017."



Also:

"New LEGOLAND Park developments

· In October 2016, our seventh LEGOLAND Park - LEGOLAND Dubai - will open under a management contract.
· LEGOLAND Japan will open under an operated and leased model in April 2017, with LEGOLAND Korea expected to open thereafter.
· Negotiations for further parks in the USA and China continue."

And overall, Legoland "continues to perform well against tough comparatives in the prior period".

Bizarrely the online quotes are still the same an hour after the open today

[gleach23] 27/9/2016 22:40

Thanks PI - not a recommended activity though as prices can obviously move against you.

However the situation seemed to exist for around the last 40 mins of the day which was a little odd.

[panic investor] 27/9/2016 20:47

Gleach - that made me smile ! Well done

[gleach23] 27/9/2016 16:07

Just to underline the point about the buy/sell data...

I noticed the online bid quote was above the offer so I sold 360 and bought them back cheaper 'just for the craic'. Hardly worth the negligible profit but the sale appears in the buy column and vice versa.

Might be related to the duplicate trades point although the timing isn't exactly the same.

The situation is still the same with the online quote being 13.846 - 13.807

[spud] 27/9/2016 14:55

I know, thats why selling into strength & buying into weakness is 'generally' (although psycologically counter intuitive) the best way in a more tightly traded stock.

Spud:- Trading in 1k tranches for a such low volume share as ASCO can be an influence. If you make the assumption that each deal is a discrete buy or sell then a 1k deal equals a 2k Daily Trading figure or 10% of a normal day and for 1 in 4 days it is more than 25% of a days trading.

Probably a rollover

[janeann] 27/9/2016 13:20

spud - or anyone - do you have any view on why there are so many in effect duplicate trades at the same price - today recently 2 buys of 659 and 2 of 115. This has happened regularly over quite a time period.

and fully agree he trade data needs to be looked at very specifically to determine what is going on as it regularly trades the wrong side of mid price

[spud] 27/9/2016 12:31

Panic - That's exactly what I do at the appartment in San Pedro, when i'm not dodging rain showers back in Old Blighty.

Edit:
Don't believe the ADVFN Buy/Sell data. 1379.5 to buy and 1376 to sell currently. The two largest trades today have been a 5k & 7.5k buy.
