Biome Technologies Share Discussion Threads

Clearly a buyer in the midst hence no drop in share price considering the volume vs buys and the fact the bid is at a premium to the book price....

2 weeks Friday, we shall see....estimate for the share price prior 1.95 / 2.10

[sirmark] 06/1/2014 14:47

Clearly (despite the book price) the price to sell is 1.75... is they are offering 1.75 then 1.75 is the price...it's no harder than that ....

[begorrah88] 06/1/2014 14:16

You know as well as I do that your quote from HL just confirms that you can sell some stock for £1.75 - it is not the formal bid price

The bid price is £1.70 and no amount of sleight of hand will change that - the MM's will change that by moving up to £1.75 if and when they want to [at which point some unscrupulous sorts will be claiming the the bid price is £1.80 or something].

Clutching at straws would be my analysis

TDW is quite clear in what the book price is - £1.70 bid - same iwth HL etc

That is the measure by which the stock market works - the book price

Are we really that desperate that we are going to be using a different figure that isn't a formal price just to make it look as though there is demand?

Did the MM's buy them? - no method of knowing as that is the purpose of the 'ordinary' trade - that it isn't the MM's taking the stock.

[sirmark] 06/1/2014 13:31

splitting hairs grax....the mm's bought them on the rsp at £1.75p and are offering that price to sellers....just because the price on the book is £1.70 doesn't mean that's the price. Don't forget how this stock is now traded...no longer sets/setsmm

[begorrah88] 06/1/2014 13:25

No they haven't!

The official bid is £1.70 not £1.75p

The fact that the sells today have been at £1.75 is because they weren't AT trades but O trades so didn't hit the book.

[mudbath] 06/1/2014 13:15

Despite what begorrah88 states about buys and sells,the MMs' have nevertheless raised their bid for stock up to £1.75.
That has to constitute a good support for the continuance of sirmark's uptrend.

[begorrah88] 06/1/2014 13:07

No, he won't be exposed or removed - he has the main holders in his pocket and that was done deliberatley.

They/you are shagged - if he can't pull a rabbit out of the hat then their/your investment will fall further so they are painted into a corner to support him.

He'll do what he does every year and infer that things are going well [two swallows anyone?] and then the figures won't back that up.

We see it every single year and that may be why todays trades are sells of £9500 and buys of £3700.

I'd love to be proved wrong in the same way as I have hoped that for the past 5 years [ for the first year of Mines I too believed the hype but then became suspicious when the figures didn't marry up with the tosh he was spouting].

Good luck all because luck is the only thing we have going for us here.

[sirmark] 06/1/2014 12:47

I agree the share price performance has been disgusting to say the least, but having not sold I hang on the hope and belief that with the excuses gone, he can't hide behind anything and will either perform or be exposed and removed. I feel he will perform and believe that in the report at the end of January we will see this improvement in the numbers and the outlook.

[begorrah88] 06/1/2014 12:46

You say 'heard it here first' well you are right about that. You've been saying it for the last 6 years!

It won't have escaped your notice that there have been more shares sold today than bought but hey, what does that matter?

I do admire your blind faith in a man that has shafted you year after year

Keep smiling fella.

[sirmark] 06/1/2014 12:30

Get ready boys and girls .....it's coming ....you heard it here first ....(about 6 years late, but it's coming)

[lwaxf13] 06/1/2014 12:26

I once calculated that BIOM needed to get to circa £24 just to get back to where it was the day Mr Mines arrived 17 April 2007. According to Yahoo UK the price taking into account the stock consolidation on 17 April 2007 would have been £30.61. Either way it's been an extremely shocking performance and claps on the back in the boardroom for performance at BIOM will be premature until it gets above the price on 17 April 2007.

Lets hear it for the sterling work that has been done at BIOM.

"Hip, hip!!!"

Come on!!!

[begorrah88] 06/1/2014 12:21

Misery for shareholders but over £1million pounds in wages for himself [+ bonuses and perks]

How's that for value for money!

[lwaxf13] 06/1/2014 11:57

6 years?!! So Mr Mines has had 6 years and achieved what exactly for shareholders?

[begorrah88] 06/1/2014 08:59

Been waiting 6 years + so far SM!

[sirmark] 05/1/2014 20:13

Wait and see :)

[mudbath] 05/1/2014 11:26

begorrah88 - No thanks.
temmujin - No thanks.

Good luck to you both though with your projections for BIOM.

[temmujin] 05/1/2014 07:19

this company will be bust in 12 months...trust me

[sirmark] 04/1/2014 15:43

T/A as well we are looking for retest of the £2.10 also


Should be moving well above that in the coming weeks

[sirmark] 04/1/2014 15:41

Agreed in fairness £35 would be nicer ...IF they can bag some good business and grow this strength to strength then this share price will move up extremely fast with most shareholders having very much higher than this.


Only a few holders of which are increasing (the main ones anyway)


Good luck all but a very strong buy for me ;)

[lwaxf13] 04/1/2014 13:31

£10 by Christmas is still a very dismal share price performance since Mr Mines took charge.

Hat off to recent punters who would make money on £10 but for long termers it's been an unmitigated disaster for the share price (and people get paid handsomely for this!!!).

Hello Parsons and sirmark.
Happy New Year to the both of you.
I too hope for a booming BIOM 2014 performance.

With a trading update due within a couple or three weeks,I was looking at the 2013 pre-close statement and in retrospect,despite what detractors might claim,it was factual and "on the money",including as it did the paragraphs,

"Biome began this work in 2008 and is now involved with a number of interesting customer opportunities with significant market potential. These include the pre-launch evaluation work with a leading manufacturer of high performance single-use foodservice products and the launch of multi-layer sealing film for single-use coffee capsules. The former project is progressing well and the latter was market tested in the fourth quarter of 2012 with a full launch now underway in January 2013 with some 40 tonnes delivered already. While the expected growth trajectories of both of these applications are potentially strong, their actual performance will be clearer by the second half of 2013.
Biome is also investigating opportunities for the manufacture of bio-based materials through the use of synthetic biology. This is an emerging technology and Biome has a small number of early stage collaborations with both academic and industrial partners. The UK Government has identified the commercialisation of synthetic biology as an area of high priority where the UK can build a world leading position. The Board is exploring opportunities to accelerate the position of the business in this area in 2013 using mainly its intellectual, rather than its cash assets. To further this objective the business has an application for funding under consideration by the Technology Strategy Board (a Government body charged with making the UK a global leader in innovation) to support its research in this field."

Hopefully the 2014 update will be similarly indicative of future developments and flag up significant potential for increasing revenue streams.
