There has already been a trading update 1st May. Now you have to wait for end of July for results |
Yump - market perception has a simple metric and that is the vole of shares traded as a percentage of the total issued. ALT's daily share volume shows you the market does not bother with such small caps. |
What is the market’s perception of ALT? Has there been a study?
As it happens, my perception of ALT is that it fits my small company investment criteria, in which the daily volume is more or less irrelevant.
I also hold some Apple shares for a different reason. |
Sadly updates will not change the market perception on ALT as shown.by the lack of any daily share volume. |
If there isn't an update early next week, surely the company will leave to results at end July. |
Not a share bought or sold today- bizarre for a quoted company and reason why tiny volumes shift the share price So it can go up or down very rapidly.

we will get an update early July they wont wait until the end of the month |
I guess it all depends on whether the company plans to update imminently. |
North -Are the BOD in a closed period? The lack of purchases by the management does not help market sentiment and the constant share awards do the opposite. |
Perhaps some Tory advisers have got wind of something |
What's the news ? |
Chart starting to look interesting. |
🎉 Big Announcement! 🎉 says Gear Shop ( not me 😂)

Sween - that is indeed a worry on Gearshops outlook,lets hope that no RNS is down to last minute contract delays and not the awards being ' non material' |
Well if they are immaterial we are in bother 🤨 |
Unless new gear shop contracts are cumulatively material, it feels like they will update at results time, end of July. |
Well North if they need more time to do a precise update, it may mean some large awards are awaited. On the other hand, it might be the bad old ways being slipped into! |
Stella stated in the Interims on the 28th November "It is very pleasing to note that the momentum we showed in the first half of the year has continued into this period and we look forward to updating shareholders in the New Year" And true to her word they did, on the 1st May. |

That would be duplicitous given the comment I highlighted above namely “The Group will keep the market informed of any further UGS contract awards as we progress through the remainder of the tender season.”
Well they also told us that the tender season tapers out in June ( let’s face it whoever wins these contacts have to be up and running in the colleges when the semester opens in August and runs full steam with new student entries in September). Also the imminently expected contracts mentioned 6 weeks ago has to be factored in.
A wait to results on 30th July is therefore totally unacceptable! And would question managements integrity.

I'm beginning to think they might wait until 30 July and results to update. |
Oh well , till next week then (tues-thurs), I have to think that they are signing some last minute Gear Shop contracts but we know from the last announcement that these taper out in June.
There are few opportunities for ‘product placement’ companies to generate newsflow but I think both the CEO and Zeus need todo more to publicise this company.
Keeping investors waiting past next week would in my opinion be unfortunate considering this statement in early May
“Further contracts are anticipated imminently from a robust pipeline that typically tapers in June. Additionally, our existing Gear Shops are having a strong graduation season, providing a positive start to FY25. The Group will keep the market informed of any further UGS contract awards as we progress through the remainder of the tender season.”

So price seems to be steady now and slightly increasing Let's hope we nudge back over the 50 p soon and then beyond |
Thx Sween ... I didn't know that ! |
