Braveheart Investment Share Discussion Threads

With operating costs at around double income, I'll be surprised if they haven't run out of money again.

My guess is another placing a lot cheaper than the last one, unless they can sell some unlisted assets. Could be wrong of course...

Greg - I cannot respond to your query. Sometimes one just gets their timing right. lady, that may be one of many reasons why people have suddenly decided to take notice of BRH today. Often people just need their attention drawing to opportunities then they can do the maths themselves. The opportunity has always been here, but at today's price, it is clearly better than ever before. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what the company have to say, and until then we can but speculate.

Perhaps share price boosted by disappearance of Hotbed - a previous competitor intermediary between investors and unquoted investments

SC - tell us what you know!! No one starts a thread then 1 hour later the share price goes up 15%! Where are these volumes coming from? Are we due an RNS?

[samuelchristo] 09/2/2012 12:31

I personally believe so vivgav. I have shared my thoughts on the new BRH thread, please feel free to drop by, it's 15% up since I started the thread just over an hour ago!

[samuelchristo] 09/2/2012 12:29

Welcome guys and thanks for popping by! I must admit I didn't quite expect this to go up 15% in the first hour of my new thread but I won't complain. I do believe this is substantially undervalued. Best of luck to everyone and interested in hearing all your opinions on matters.

Recovery on here???

[targatarga] 09/2/2012 11:44

didn't think anyone would be interested in these... imho

[christianf12] 09/2/2012 11:40

lol, last placing was done at 23p!

[lufc5] 09/2/2012 11:39

Naaaa I'm not the 1st poster here?

Good afternoon all - I posted this on another thread:


If I may I'd like to bring people's attention to Braveheart Investment Group (BRH). I feel the stock is now highly undervalued with a sub £2 million market cap. They have a NAV of 28p with a current share price of 10p. They have around £800,000 cash. They are invested in 23 quality companies who they will work each towards a profitable exit.

I feel the share-price will quickly double and more during 2012. There will be plenty of newsflow due to the number of maturing companies they are working toward IPOs on.

The chart isn't pretty but I feel this is due a bounce very soon. I have set up a new thread with further information and links to their 23 investments. All are welcome.

This is all my opinion and not intended to be investment advice.

Thanks for your time.

I believe as we stand today Braveheart is undervalued. Price stands at 10p. Still a risk but worth a few quid if you them spare IMHO to see how it turns out.

Highlights:

1) Client exit portfolio showing a sustained year rate of return of 30%
2) Overall client portfolio showing a rate of return of 20%
3) First exit of an investment funded by IPO proceeds, generating a realised gain of GBP168,000 (look at how many companies they are invested in to see potential here)
4) Cash balances of GBP841,000 Sep 11
5) Net asset value per share of 27.48 pence – current share price 10 pence
6) Fee based revenue in the six months ended 30 September 2011 increased 89% to GBP621,000
7) At 30 September 2011 net assets were GBP4.72m, MC currently 1.93m


Braveheart are invested in the following companies:

www.atlasgenetics.com
www.biopta.com
www.bloxx.com

NAV of 30p, and more than £500k cash by my estimates? They're only low on cash because they are pumping money into a couple of mature ventures for hope of a big money exit. I hope I can find some more funds to invest here before I miss the pop to 30p...

[rambutan2] 08/2/2012 16:17

But it keep burning through its cash. Big dilution is a real danger.
