Inspicio part 2.

Consistently falling this one.

Losses increasing year on year with 80% of assests being made up of goodwill and intangibles!

Also total liabilities being double that of its current assets.

[m.t.glass] 16/1/2008 11:21

Dropped by a third from its peak and still dropping. And no obvious support level for quite a way down.

[jonwig] 14/10/2007 16:36

Honiton - I thought the same when mulling the INP approach.
I don't know enough about Cozart (which COT have just bought).
But there might be some momentum in the sector and losers of INP may want an alternative ...

[honiton] 14/10/2007 16:29

Um...could be worth a punt..

[amla] 05/9/2007 15:17

This purchase of Cozart is going to cost a lot of money.How is it being funded...is a placing in the offing?The market seems unhappy with the news.

Gold's COT charts look rather bearish

bought some last week, you cant even buy 500 this morning on line. MMs must to short of stock

[skumarj] 16/4/2007 22:10

The chart appears to be breaking out

[pf99] 16/4/2007 10:22

yesterday's telegraph says the shares are worth BUYING

[jonwig] 01/3/2007 09:15

So COT and INP share a building, as well as directors.
Snuggling up ...

But any merger might be at nil premium.

Incidentally, have sold my COT.

[the prophet] 16/1/2007 14:51

-jonwig
-yes, COT have got a very good deal buying Altrix, imo.
-that is all credit to COT and no credit to Altrix directors!

-but, yes, every cloud has a silver lining and the share price movement here helps!

[jonwig] 16/1/2007 14:48

Your discussion re Altrix (of which I know nothing) suggests COT's rise might well have something to do with getting a bargain.
So would it be fair to suggest that continuing the ride will help compensate?

[the prophet] 16/1/2007 14:40

-break-out to new highs!!!!

[the prophet] 16/1/2007 14:19

-stu31
-to be honest, no, I didn't consider that
-I only had a limited number of Altrix so, although the deal was disappointing to say the least, didn't think there was too much point holding out + the cash will come in handy, although it ain't the reward i expected when I invested!!!

[stu31] 16/1/2007 14:12

TP, did you consider trying to hold your Altrix? As I understand it they need 90% for a compulsory purchase on the rest..which may not happen.

[the prophet] 15/1/2007 20:34

-stu31
-as a (former) Altrix holder, you are 100% right....it stinks, but its a stich up job......not COT's fault, so I will try to make a few bob thro' holding COT!

[stu31] 15/1/2007 19:47

The re-rating here is probably due to the fact that Altrix directors have sold their own shareholders down the river by accepting a scandalously low offer for the business. Stripping out the £1m cash on the Altrix balance sheet and taking into account all the cheap options the directors awarded themselves the business is being sold on a current year pe of 11 - for a company growing at 25% a year it is ridiculous. That is why the balance of the smaller shareholders have told them to stick it.

[jonwig] 15/1/2007 09:32

TP - yes, I must say I'm pleasantly surprised by this!
