22/8/2005 21:45 | Extract of a fax sent to CEO Simon Cleaver quote To me almost the most disturbing issue was the lack of announcement of a new Finance Director. I am sure that you will feel a great weight has been taken off your shoulders when you can make such an announcement. I can understand the delay: the reality is that you need a top operator. He/she needs to be a good bean counter, bearing in mind the need to restate the interims and thelack of definition of the actual profitablity of Pipemedia pre acquisition. He/she will need the authority to convince the City given the juxtaposition of the equity issue and the profits warning. Something tells me there is a need for a robust character; what is certain is greater strategic financial vision than appears to have been the norm- for example does it really make sense for Legend to give extended trading terms to its clients even if they are good credits. It seems this is such an important apppointment that I hope you do not nickel and dime his/her terms. unquote | cerrito | |
22/8/2005 08:43 | ex-tory minister on board is usually a sell signal. Look at ROS which had Rifkind during time it went from 450p to 30p | wiganer | |
22/8/2005 08:41 | I have been predicting the spectacular demise of this company for some time, i have said in previous threads that they seem to just jump from one idea to another. Well, todays announcement vindicates my sentiments. I wonder what the institutions who bought in less than a month ago think of this. Surely you cant experience bad trading in a 2-3 week period that causes you to issue such a statement. This stinks, i think we are going to hear more of this, for instance why did the Finance Director quit 2 months ago? Was it because he had got fed up of being TOLD what figures to release. This stinks, and former tory home secretary Kenneth Baker as chairman? Lots of questions to be answered i think. | bre75474 | |
15/8/2005 11:44 | Does anyone know the new epic for Legend Communications? | easyman | |

13/8/2005 16:28 | I hope your new thread manages to throw some light on what is going on here. Have had some rather peculiar trading this week. On thursday Aug 11 the closing price was down at 54/57 with the mid price going from 60 to 56; however the 2 transactions that took place were at higher prices- a broker to broker at 59- and another at 58 for1,600 shares(ie less than £1k) On Friday Aug 12 we had 12k of volume-one a 10k sale of 55 but price remained the same at 54/57 Amount traded has not been great... | cerrito | |

13/8/2005 00:19 | Recent change of name from business serve. Reaction to placing overdone, possible 50% upside potential from here imo.....dyor. | maximoney1 | |
05/8/2005 11:26 | BRV extremely active and aggresive in the telecoms M&A marketplace at the moment - would expect a couple to be announced in the next few months to expand the prodcut portfolio and technology capability. | 2lb | |
02/8/2005 17:11 | Anyone have any vibs on yesterday's RNS..the market has none, given lack of response in share price and low volume Nothing really new but these developments need cash and I am still asking myself why they do not use the cash they raised to fund this and new lines rather than getting distracted in new acquisitions | cerrito | |
30/7/2005 17:46 | I agree with you that it is good this bit of the uncertainty has been cleared up. would have much preferred the announcement of a new FD which seems to be much needed and would have hoped that they could have mustered up some inspring words on current trading on which they were silent and indeed passed up the chance to make an AGM trading statement. | cerrito | |
30/7/2005 13:15 | The institutions who put their money in must be quite confident that the money is going to be spent wisely. The acquisition can't be too far away. I guess it's a case of wait and see | jakleeds | |
30/7/2005 12:51 | Yes, they did well to get it away at such a small discount. All now depends on what they buy with the money, I suppose. | diogenesj | |
29/7/2005 07:18 | The long awaited rights issue is now out of the way not at too deep a discount and they clearly have further acquisitions in their sights | hybrasil | |
29/6/2005 18:59 | Oh, thanks, Itinv. I missed that. | diogenesj | |
29/6/2005 15:32 | DiojenesJ I think it was mentioned in today's Daily Express. | ltinvestor | |
29/6/2005 13:28 | No. I did look at it a few months ago, but I was put off by the curious structure (wasn't it set up by and still 63% owned by the American oil company Harken?) It certainly looks cheap on the figures and forecasts, but I felt cautious about it. Why did Harken float it on Aim? Then again, I don't really understand oils, although I'm holding a few (including Burren), for reasons of momentum more than anything else. Needless to say, they are doing better than most of my other more carefully researched picks. :-( | diogenesj | |
29/6/2005 13:17 | DJ, you into GED by any chance? I was looking at Burren last year at £1.88 and for some unknown reason, did not buy any. Took the plunge this am on ged as it seems to have the same characteristics that bur had this time last year. | jakleeds | |
29/6/2005 13:08 | Illusions of grandeur, I think, jak. Don't think anyone has noticed any speculation in the Press, which is largely unaware of Business Serve. The company itself said at the time of the results that it was interested in acquisitions, and it is now using this form of words to introduce a warning of an impending rights issue or open offer, which probably explains the recent share price weakness. | diogenesj | |
29/6/2005 12:48 | Does anyone know which press speculation the previous message refers to? | jakleeds | |
07/6/2005 09:10 | Eps (pre-goodwill) seems to be comfortably ahead of forecast (about 9%). Note the plan to change the company name to Legend Communications after the AGM. | diogenesj | |
07/6/2005 09:00 | Yeah looks good slightly better than forecast. One to hold. If they can keep the momentum going the stock looksx good value.

"We are pleased with the performance of the acquisitions made to date and have set ourselves the target of completing the integration projects by the second quarter of the new financial year. In the coming 12 months, we will continue to seek suitable acquisition opportunities where they meet our financial and strategic goals." "Through this successful acquisition strategy we have broadened our range of products spanning the telecommunications (including VoIP) and ISP services, thus allowing us to reposition the company as one of the UK's leading Converged Communications Providers." "We believe that as this market continues to mature, many of the more traditional ISPs and telcos will see their margins under continued pressure, particularly in the residential sector. However, the UK business market is seeing a transition towards more complex combined Internet and telecommunication solutions - Converged Communications - where healthy margins will continue to be achievable. Business Serve is ideally positioned to take advantage of this transition." "The Board is particularly excited about our new VoIP services. We believe we are a long way ahead of most of our competition and can see great potential for dynamic growth in this area of our business. We aim to achieve market penetration through the leveraging of our Strategic Partners who will be distributing our VoIP Plug and Play CD ROMs with their products. We will also soon be launching our competitively priced flat rate VoIP calling plans." "In addition to the headline figures, this year has seen huge strides in our automation programs. Many of our products and services can now be purchased online and customers have a greatly enhanced experience through the ability to organise and configure their services directly over the Internet through their Online Control Panel account." "I believe that during this year, we have laid solid foundations in terms of product, infrastructure, staff and direction which will ensure that Business Serve has a very exciting 2006."
