Aptamer Share Discussion Threads

[adamb1978] 15/6/2025 11:55:21

Average daily trading volume is ~10m shares, so lets say £35k in value based on where the share price has been. That's roughly £700k per month. Approx 10 months since the fundraising completed, so c.£7m value traded.

They raised £2.8m last summer.

However, a good portion of that £7m is from holders (e.g. those on here) buying in for the medium term rather than actively looking to trade it.

It's difficult to estimate however much of that £2.8m might have been bought by weak hands who would flip at a quick profit, but clearly there has been enough volume

Surely the overhang of placing shares is but exhausted....hopefully news to come will now no longer be lost in the mire.

Met

Funding to move towards commercial testing for the Company's novel prototype Pathogen Detector in conjunction with Aptamer Group plc initially for rapid on-line detection of Cryptosporidium, the primary pathogen found in sewage polluted potable water in the UK and elsewhere;

Things are happening in the background here still . Results due out soon hopefully with some good updates on talks

Adam. It might be the almost zero revenue with max £500k guidance for six months to 30/6/25. If revenue were £2m and growing then sky’s the limit. But it ain’t.

[adamb1978] 08/6/2025 21:12:34

What has changed? Or perhaps its not the right investment for your time horizons / risk appetite / other reason?

Sorry guys, I tried but this one I can't be bullish anymore.

Max buy 625,000 shares @0.35 = £2,191

[someuwin] 05/6/2025 14:37:04

Can buy £4k. But not £5k.

[bones698] 05/6/2025 06:14:42

I'm sure it was 190m or 390m . Would have to read back to see but it's always an issue . With it being so thinly traded it's hard to clear but can't be far off

[purchaseatthetop] 04/6/2025 18:21:57

Revenue 6 months to 31/12/24 £700k
Revenue forecast for 6 months to 30/6/25 £500k
Cash burn £210k per month
Those weak hands may prove wiser hands.

[adamb1978] 04/6/2025 18:14:56

I dont think it was an underwritten issue was it? Assuming not, how has the broker ended up holding shares?

I do agree though that the sheer volume of shares issued last summer means that a high proportion will be in weak hands rather than investors who have conviction in the prospects of the company

[bones698] 04/6/2025 17:03:47

Keep adding here until the seller clears . Cheap shares and likely to move fast once they are done . I suspect it's the broker from the placing selling . It's annoying they don't have to update on their position

[someuwin] 04/6/2025 15:30:05

Four significant news items last month. How many will we get this month I wonder? Sooner or later the share price will respond imo.

Can currently buy £7k. But not £8k.

[squire007] 02/6/2025 10:37:18

[gepetto100] 02/6/2025 08:07:31

Hi Squire You are correct the latest Unilever announcement is definitely a second and separate agreement

[sideshowbull] 01/6/2025 18:22:17

The APTA BULL flag left a gap.

Should be fine for now..

The RNSs need treating with a healthy dose of scepticism

8/7/24 RNS
“These efforts have led to increased revenues in the second half of the year and an encouraging rise in order book values. In the last quarter of the financial year, £0.98 million in orders were won which has resulted in a total of £1.8 million in signed orders currently being processed or awaiting processing in the laboratory.”

That £1.8m actually turned into just £700k in six months to 31/12;24 and £500k in six months to 30/6/25 despite further new orders being RNSd.

My point is that if you divide any figures by about three you might be close.

[squire007] 01/6/2025 11:53:06

I get your point, but this is not the kind of business that sells stuff off a shelf. Hence the low sp, because as you state, its cash from a committed contract that will see it fly ... we can but wait and hope. ;-)

[purchaseatthetop] 01/6/2025 11:19:53

“As at 31 December 2024, an additional £0.5 million of contracted work was being delivered through the laboratory, with a strong sales pipeline valued at £5.1 million and £3.2 million of this potential value in advanced negotiations.”

All these recent FFS deals are utterly immaterial. Why has the £5.1m/£3.2m pipeline returned zip in the last five months? The fuller picture is that a major contract is needed right now.

[squire007] 01/6/2025 10:26:08

If you then read rns from 15th May as well you get an even fuller picture and detail of things ;-)
