Paid 2.9p for mine. Bought these previously at IPO stage, but sold out soon after. It was over-priced then, but it isn't now.

Need to study closer, but this company appears to be making solid progress and is very well funded. Happy with my holding.

£1m T/O £400k loss is not exactly cracking in my book.
I suppose 'Triple Digit' sounds better than T/O up £600k - but it's still low.

Great progress..triple digit growth of 2 investments, with fitbug going great guns. They have to be looking at cracking the US soon don't they? AIMHO...I hold, etc.

What ever they do, the directors are confident they are/will be doing it well. As a director you don't put your own money into somthing about to go down the pan. Whilst still a typical small company investment,ie high risk. BUPA can see some good or they would have walked away. I would have thought this was a better bet than most start ups/early stage companies.

True enough. It is hard enough working out what they do let alone how they can do it profitably.

I started looking at these because of the link to Gladstone (share an ex director) but the whole thing looks confused - are they a consultancy, a hardware seller or a software seller?

Looks to me like they bamboozled BUPA or else were so persistant that the small investment was to shut them, up....

Accounts are very confused and they look a long way off to profitability. This is OK when the market is bullish and sentiment is there but at the moment it is a dead Duck without profits.

You must be kidding... this is a confused proposition that has failed to deliver. the only thing it is good at is self promotion, which is admirable but ultimately unprofitable.

Good sign that the Directors have bought a chunk more. This looks a dynamic business going places.

Bought back in today. Impressed by a few things in the annual report:
- Funding sorted;
- BUPA and Boots combination impressive to say the least;
- Chairman and Chief Executive take virtually no salary as do 2 of the non execs;
- Strong roll-out prospects in 2008 for Movers and shapers;
- Very capable management team.
- Opportunity to buy at less than 3p when BUPA paid 5p.
Only downsides being that they do not have full ownership of their portfolio and still fairly early stage.

Stillwatching2. Have you invested in the company?

I have and done very well so far. BUPA have they think there have prospects.Alliance Boots were happy to have their products instore. Prudential are happy to work with them.

You may think they are overpriced but worthless - definitley not.
They have taken a long time to get reveune in but it looks like the next statement should look more positive in respect of cashflow.

Sure Sillwatching, that's why BUPA took a £3m stake in the company less than 2 months. Obviously they are completely clueless when it comes to products/services in Healthcare. Somehow I trust their knowledge/experience than yours.

Sorry about the apostrophe - failed English at school.

Research:

No sales
No reported pipeline
Lots of meaningless PR
Massive cash burn (only directors taking salary)
Directors need to prop up with consultancy jobs

Assumptions:

They spend their cash on holidays & jewelery

I'm sure you will make more - does not mean the company can't go pop at any time. This is not a viable long term business

Boy, you must have lost a lot of money with these shares to be hacked off this much ! Or do you have a grudge ?

Would you care to back up your research and give some evidence that " they manage to get a chunk of money to fund their holidays " and how you know that they have "wive's (sic)..(with).... expensive tastes in designer jewelery."

Research, my dear friend, is key to investing. I've used some of their products, I've researched the company, I've invested and made quite a bit from them and I expect to again.

Invest or don't invest. But use research, not emotion.

Completely worthless company. Have not sold a thing. Every year or so they manage to get a chunk of money to fund their holidays and wive's expensive tastes in designer jewelery.

Do not be fooled by this lot - they have taken investors for a ride time and time again.

Good luck if you manage to make a bit by second guessing them but do not risk your cash if you need it elsewhere...

It sounds as though Movers & Shapers is beginning to ramp up so we should see plenty of activity over the coming months, especially with the appointment of Ben Margolis as CEO. I particularly like the phrase 'rapid expansion' in the RNS indicating that things are moving apace. A case of watch this space.

level in partnership with BUPA and fully exploit the growing opportunities
opening up to it.

Esporta as such is not in administration and will continue trading, Grant Thornton said.



"Sufficient funding has been provided to meet all of Esporta's operational commitments and to ensure that capital expenditure for the development and improvement of Esporta Group health & fitness club continues," the accountancy firm said.

anybody have any idea what effect Esporta going into admin changes the revenue stream to ad..?
It does not do the company's cred any good.
