25/5/2005 09:27	if talks were off they would have to announce immediately - been 2 months since enteres which suggests bidders going through the books to finalise the level they want to pay...ATM will want to wait for all bidders to do due dilligence and get all offers in before accepting the winner. These things can take several months. If it takes 3 months to go through the process of buying a house, why should spending £70m take any quicker?!! Unless there is a major problem (recent trading suggests the opposite) then paitence will be rewarded, probably within the next few weeks....and withe the shares now at 36p, pushed down by people getting bored, the risk/reward looks better and better for more nibbling!	melville28	Read Full Thread Reply
19/5/2005 09:36	Sorry chaps - I sold out recently. The only reason for keeping hold of the shares is the bid speculation/approach, but this has been dragging on for many months now and it's taking far, far too long. I was starting to feel very uncomfortable about the outcome so I've decided to quit in case we see the share price half ... Good luck to all the rest of you. Bye.	nilip	Read Full Thread Reply
12/5/2005 08:15	RNS Number:1780M Moneybox PLC 12 May 2005 AGM Trading Statement In our preliminary results announcement on 17 March, we expressed our confidence that UK ATM transaction volumes would start to show an improvement as the unprecedented press criticism of charging ATMs died down and our engineering work to upgrade our ATM estate to meet 'Chip and Pin' and revised encryption standards was completed. I am pleased to report that this confidence is being borne out with a good recovery in our daily transaction rate experienced in April compared to those levels achieved over recent months. We continue to focus our UK ATM efforts on securing new profitable sites, actively managing our ATM estate to re-deploy under-performing sites and reducing the overall cost of service provision. Our European businesses continue to show good growth and progress. Exciting opportunities exist in our cashless payments and access control business and our new product, Myriad, is continuing to set a competitive standard in this developing and growing market. The group profit before tax for the 4 months ended 30 April 2005 is in line with our expectations. We announced on 31 March that we had received preliminary approaches, which may or may not lead to an offer for the issued and to be issued share capital of the company. This situation remains unchanged and a further announcement will be made when appropriate. Shareholders will be kept informed of any relevant developments and in the meantime should await further advice from the Board. The business is being run to create increasing sustainable shareholder value and for this we appreciate and value the hard work, diligence and efforts of all of our staff. Our focused efforts can only bode well for the future.	jailbird	Read Full Thread Reply

01/4/2005 15:17	THE INDEPENDENT : Cardpoint mulls Moneybox merger By Julia Kollewe, Banking Correspondent 01 April 2005 The cash machine company Cardpoint has emerged as a possible suitor for its smaller rival Moneybox, which said yesterday that it had received a number of takeover approaches. Moneybox shares rose 2.75p to 37.75p, giving the group a market value of £75m. It is thought that Cardpoint has approached Moneybox to defend itself against a potential takeover bid from US rival Cardtronics, which together with TRM dominates the American cash machine market. A big private-equity firm is thought to be interested in acquiring Cardpoint together with Moneybox. Moneybox's announcement came 24 hours after a parliamentary committee lambasted the industry for raking in £140m a year from consumers who want to access their own cash. TRM has built a stake of about 10 per cent in Moneybox and is believed to have been behind an abortive takeover approach last October, along with some of Moneybox's UK rivals. An insider said it was likely that the main players in the industry would want to look at Moneybox, hoping to achieve "economies of scale" in an increasingly competitive market, though it could also attract financial buyers. Cardpoint, with about 2,800 machines, has by far the biggest share of the charging cash machine market, accounting for about a third of transactions. Moneybox is second with 17 per cent of the market; followed by Hanco, which has been acquired by Royal Bank of Scotland, with 13 per cent, TRM with 12 per cent and Bank Machine with 8 per cent. The talks between Moneybox and potential bidders look to be a precursor to more consolidation in the industry.	nilip	Read Full Thread Reply

19/3/2005 09:20	Fill ya boots with this one, excellent company with excellent prospects. Pubs open 24/7 Banks (through the back door either geting rid or buying charging for withdrawls) eventuly we will have to acept having to pay for the convience, just alike abroad. IMHO consolidation in this sector will give in the medium term excellent returns. I see this like a small dot.com bubble but with the difference that this sector actualy makes and deals with cash. As I said fill ya bootsand ggod luck all ya wise people who are already holders or considering.	chalkie100	Read Full Thread Reply
17/3/2005 16:04	I don't hold this (yet...) but holders may be interested that Equity Development have released a research note on the company. The pdf can be downloaded free (register first) from www.equitydevelopment.com Research is funded by the companies themselves, so decide for yourselves on its worth.

17/3/2005 07:22	shadowchaser, ATM is a buy not a sell ... check out the results ... There's more to this company than a potential bidder. Also, given the results just announced, I think we'd expect a bid far in excess of the current share price. These are an excellent set of result. Significantly better than even I expected. HIGHLIGHTS TURNOVER UP 46% !!!! TOTAL Profit UP £3.4 * Profit before tax, exceptional items and goodwill amortisation ahead of revised market expectations at #2.1m (2003: loss of #1.3m) * H2 profit before tax, exceptional items and goodwill amortisation #1.8m compared to #0.3m in H1 * Exceptional items of #4.3m (2003: nil) incurred in 2004 on AIM flotation, aborted acquisition and bid defence costs, reorganisation and restructuring costs and loss on fixed asset impairments * Results delivered against a difficult H2 trading background in the independent ATM sector * New management structure in place dedicated to delivering sustainable shareholder value * UK ATM estate increased by 18% from 2,471 in December 2003 to 2,912 in December 2004 and in Europe the estate increased by 67% from 343 in December 2003 to 573 in December 2004 * Major ATM contract won with Compass Group * Free-standing ATM kiosk programme underway * Acquisition of G2 has delivered the expected ATM maintenance cost savings * Successful launch of G2's "Myriad" prepayment, ID and access control platform in schools, universities and major financial institutions highlights the excellent growth opportunities for the Group's cashless payments and access control division At 31 December 2004, the Group had a cash balance of #6.5m QUOTE : "excellent progress has been made in laying the foundations to deliver strong further growth of the business". Moneybox has a successful business that remains strongly positioned strategically. We have a major share of the fast growing market for independently deployed ATMs and are a leader in the development of complementary access control and cashless payment systems. We are now also lean and hungry, with the new management team focusing its full attention on the delivery of shareholder value. There has also been recent press speculation over the potential sale of Independent ATM Deployer ('IAD') businesses and there are undoubtedly further economies of scale to be achieved through the consolidation of the UK IAD market as the sector matures. Turnover for the 2004 year rose by 46%, from #29.3m to #42.9m, partly reflecting a 9 month first time contribution from our acquisition of G2. However, the existing Moneybox ATM deployment business also showed strong organic growth, with sales ahead by 26%, from #29.3m to #37.0m. On a like for like basis, excluding G2 and annualising the prior period, group sales growth was 16%.	nilip	Read Full Thread Reply
10/3/2005 17:15	ATM --Sold out today for a modest profit--[I bought in at 26.5p ] --the only play for this stock ,as you all quite rightly say, is a takeover bid . As an investment policy -- I never hold stock on purely on that basis alone .	shadowchaser	Read Full Thread Reply
