New Non-exec seems to be a heavier weight than a small co. like Biome would normally attract. I wonder what the thinking is - massive expansion on the cards? or getting the decks ready to be taken over?

hi amt - agree with your conclusion that limited downside and huge upside.
though the risk reward may not suit all.

all IMHO , DYOR + BoL
BIOM is in my portfolio

Biome Bioplastics utilises industrial biotechnology developments to create bioplastics to replace oil-based polymers with biobased and biodegradable aromatic polyesters. https://t.co/9rAOlus6GJ #innovation #lifesciences #sustainable https://t.co/DYFr5j3Msl

But at what price?

[begorrah88] 25/3/2021 10:14

Something about the price action seems wrong to me.On the figures & the recent RNS I can so no genuine reason for the rise.Wouldn't surprise me if it got taken out by some larger body & Mines can then head off into the sunset with a lump sum in his pocket & maintain his delusions of having done a good job.New non-execs etc might just be positioning of appropriate parties.Wouldn't be surprised to see plenty of PR fluff in the near future if I'm right.

Yes I reckon based on current trends a loss of about 0.8m this year and cash outflow of about the same leaving 900k in the bank.
Then 2022 break even and cash neutral.
In H2 cash burn was only 400k so maybe my 800k for 2021 is pessimistic given probably 2m more in sales of Bio products.
There could of course be some major contracts and the furnace business might start to recover.
Anyway relatively safe at the moment with a huge opportunity further down the road. I am holding on.

[thordon] 25/3/2021 08:42

Yep , think this year still heading for a loss with next year heading to profit

[zipstuck] 25/3/2021 07:57

Cash burn last year was £1.4m after p;acing

Can't see BIOM holding on to its recent gains with these results.

Biome Technologies plc announces its audited Final Results for the year ended 31 December 2020.

Highlights:

Final Results

· Another strong year for the Bioplastics division with revenue growth of 65% building on the 81% revenue growth achieved in 2019. The division enters 2021 with a healthy pipeline of customer positions and prospects.

· RF Technologies division revenues reduced to £0.8m due to the ongoing over-capacity in the division's core fibre optics manufacturing market.

· Reported Group loss before interest, interest, taxation and amortisation (LBITDA) of £0.9m (2019: LBITDA of £0.5m), in line with market expectations, with Group operating loss of £1.6m (2019: loss of £1.0m).

· Group cash position as at 31 December 2020 was £1.7m (31 December 2019: £2.1m) with no debt.

sorry above was meant for ecr message board

[johncasey] 24/3/2021 20:12

37% drop from highs...id say its a bargain now with £4m in the bank

[marmar80] 24/3/2021 19:42

Good find.

[jmf69] 24/3/2021 11:25

I hear what you're saying and agree to a certain extent. I have been invested for quite a few years but almost at break-even unlike other long term holders. The only thing I would say is the market has changed massively in the last 10 years and customers as well as companies are looking for environmentally friendly products. Biome fits the bill and should see consistent growth in the coming years.

[begorrah88] 24/3/2021 10:09

Morning van,Yes, just copy & paste from any of those. They are all pretty much the same.

[vaneric1] 24/3/2021 09:32

I think the poster Begorrah could predict almost word for word what the statement will say. It's followed the same pattern for the last fifteen years.

[jmf69] 24/3/2021 07:24

The trading update in January gives an indication on the results. It's all about the outlook statement and progress commercialising more bioplastic products for me.

[volsung] 24/3/2021 05:45

Or a lot of selling ahead of results on Thursday

[johncasey] 24/3/2021 02:01

could be alot of buying today ahead of results thursday

[marmar80] 23/3/2021 14:58

As we see, this share needs news like this one. Every announced contract can make a difference.

[jmf69] 23/3/2021 10:03

Delayed transactions coming through showing as sells but suspect majority were buys. Results on Thursday, outlook and other progress will be interesting.
