DarkLord2 & k38.....I think you may be missing an opportunity.

My view is that the share price has been deliberately moved down in preparation for this planned consolidation, and I think we may start to see some sustained buying at these levels.

People with small share holdings have a simple choice. Wait for the return of a tiny amount of cash and move on, or risk a little more to be in with a chance of recouping some losses. Lets face it, the cost of topping up to the required level to retain a share holding is peanuts.

No way, its goodnight from me for this sad old company...

[dbno] 05/1/2006 10:18

If all the old 'scooters' with insignificant holdings take this opportunity to top up, maybe we can get this share moving north!!!

I too am voting against this, as another has commented without us they would have folded ages ago, even tho I don't expect it too happen it would be nice too see that the small investors POV is realised.

Coe raises $250,000 in stake sale
LONDON (ShareCast) - Struggling CCTV specialist Coe has raised $250,000 through the sale of its 6.4% stake in PointServe, a privately owned US company specialising in enterprise service optimisation.

The investment, which had been fully written
off in the group accounts, was made in 2000 when the company was known as Scoot.com.

Andrew Wallace, Chief Executive Officer, said 'We are pleased to announce the sale of the stake in PointServe which is a further step in the continuing process of cleaning up the group balance sheet.'

Coe warned four weeks ago that it is seeking new funding and is relying on its banks to keep going. It lost £1.19m in the year to June

They talk about their inheritance of Scoot investors as though they were scum.

Coe should remember that without us the Company would have folded long ago.

As to the high number of small shareholders, well I for one have received 3 separate information/voting packs. Most companies would link their investor holdings. I bet their 17k shareholders would be substantially reduced and manageable if they just did this.

I have voted (Only the once) a resounding NO

[mikester] 01/1/2006 22:47

Its extreemly bad for the small investor. Ok it was "fun" money but once again like Marconi the person that holds only a few shares always loose out. But it depends on how everyone votes!!

[macca28] 01/1/2006 21:37

the only reason these have gone up lately is because
seb coe got us the olympics,lol

[take_that] 01/1/2006 21:29

What do you guys make of this capital reorganisation?

Is it just a case of good money after bad?

[trough] 29/12/2005 18:23

Must be the for sale sign as reported by DreadedDalek in post 434

[thinking] 29/12/2005 10:50

Funny goings on today.

All sells except 10k and price goes up.

[philmiboots] 29/12/2005 10:06

Hmmm. Up 20%
:o?

[warranty] 28/12/2005 18:47

Interesting spot DD and thanks for the MM clarification. Down again tomorrow then!!

[dreadeddalek] 28/12/2005 15:01

I can inform you all that there is a for sale sign up at coes headquarters on Percy Street.Looks like the banks although supportive are wanting their money back.Todays spike was due to one of the mms late to price up their quotes.

[warranty] 28/12/2005 12:04

Anyone any idea why the spike up today, no news that I can see, or is it just the MM's trying to fly a kite whilst it's quiet??

[dbno] 22/12/2005 08:59

A mixed bag of results. On the one hand fairly positive current and ongoing trading, and on the other hand a noose around our necks from the days of Scoot.

But, can anyone explain to me how a relitively small operation incurrs administrative costs circa 3.5 million pounds?

[tyroneshares] 13/12/2005 17:40

It wouldn't surprise me if the directors now award themselves a nice payrise after the redundancies.

[dreadeddalek] 13/12/2005 08:42

The problem has been all too obvious in the time COE has been a public quoted company not once has it announced any company making contracts.

[darklord2] 08/12/2005 16:28

Not that funny but an important lesson none the less, why oh why couldnt they have reversed into an oil explorer...

[k38] 08/12/2005 12:53

slow death by frequent dilution...
Going back to where it started (Scoot.com).Ashes To Ashes Dust To Dust..!!!
lol-((

[chrisp2] 08/12/2005 10:54
