Concurrent Technologies Plc

Concurrent Technologies Plc ('the Company') announces that it has enjoyed strong
performance during the past three months including the highest ever monthly
turnover since the Company came to the market. This performance is currently
being augmented by an exceptionally favourable product mix and as a consequence,
the profit for the year is expected to be substantially ahead of market
expectations.



Although not continuing at record levels, ongoing shipments continue to be
satisfactory and in line with expectations. As reported in the Interim
Statement, the order book remains strong and this progress should continue into
2006.

One handed - Bad timing i,m afraid. Excellent RNS today, share price moving up nicely.

[onehanded] 30/11/2005 11:52

Got out with a 15% loss last week. Looking at a cash shell called Cohen ticker chen,private investor nearly owns 3%. I hear some action on this at last with online sells.

[rosethepose] 17/11/2005 17:38

Not sure what happening on CNC today. Good news that Lionstrust has lifted its holding to 13.1% but a bit perplexed that ADVFN shows 500k sells today. Can anyone explain?

[carolineanne] 26/9/2005 20:15

time we had more buyers in don't you think? Good results....time these shares moved up again.

[pre] 14/9/2005 18:58

Selling pressure has led to price drop...there's always tomorrow to look forward to and hopefully more buyers;-)

[pre] 13/9/2005 10:23

Yep, it broken resistance level...heading +30p imo.

[carolineanne] 13/9/2005 00:06

Good news all round.

[pre] 12/9/2005 15:20

Cracking set of results and further director buying announced today bodes well for this company. Expect further rises as PI's catch onto the news.

[dealit] 05/9/2005 17:43

Just a great set of results with more to come in the future.

[rosie wilson] 05/9/2005 08:07

Looks like the substantial investment in product design, development & production is finally paying off for Concurrent. T/o up 50%, back in healthy profit, dividend maintained,record order book. Glad I stuck in there!

[dealit] 02/9/2005 17:12

I have got to admit that I do not usually look foreward to Monday mornings, with CNC posting results on Monday I for once am.
Their are not many of us that post on this BB but I do feel it is the rest that are missing out on this share.
CNC have a track record second to none with nothing else but good new flow and remember this a tough sector indeed. Sentiment is now turning IMHO again towards solid Companies in IT after the hairy days of the teck boom. Be lucky everyone myself included.

[a1canary] 16/8/2005 16:39

can anyone explain why the price might rise AND fall in the space of a day without a single trade being made? mms trying everything to dislodge some stock?
i think there's some movement immenent on these.
charts look ready for an upward swing too, tempted to top up

[dealit] 12/8/2005 09:07

Just bought some more CNC shares and I was put in queue for them. IMHO can only mean not many shares about.

[dealit] 06/8/2005 08:33

tp100 I totally agree.
Not to concerned with the sale of 160,501 ordinary shares on 25 July 2005 by Gartmore Investment Limited, they still hold 11%.
I still feel that the Company statement on positive trading posted late April makes me feel a buying opportunity in mid to late August before results early September.
The share price as not fallen below 18p now since mid 03 and the bounce from those lows as been around 20%.
2 directors have bought at around 21p since the announcement and 4 new product launched. CNC have the new in house product line fully operational now which I feel will reflect in the figures.
All about timing now, we are at 18p now so I will be going in again as all seems well with CNC.
All the above IMHO

[tp100] 02/8/2005 18:16

It may be time to watch these again.

Not bought any yet but sniffing around - US$ strength looks useful.

[dealit] 11/6/2005 06:26

The following RSN announcement was posted after hour. I can only think they are trying to not affect the share price.

Concurrent Technologies Plc

Product Launch

Product Range Strengthened in Networking and Telecommunications Sector

Concurrent Technologies Plc (AIM: CNC), a leading manufacturer of high-end
embedded computer products for critical applications in the defence,
transportation, communications and industrial markets, announces the launch of
its latest single board computer, the PP 221/01x. This is Concurrent
Technologies' highest performance CompactPCI(R) product launched to date. The
product is designed for applications requiring significant processing capability
such as web and telecommunications servers, search engines, VoIP (Voice-over IP)
telephony systems, storage, traffic and network management, security and load
balancing.

The principal advantages of the product are its high performance, strong
multitasking capability and low power consumption (under 40 Watts for the 2.4
GHz processor and under 35 Watts for the 2.0 GHz processor). The emphasis on
multitasking of the PP 221/01x results from incorporation of Hyper-Threading
technology which enables the board to effectively run two processing cores in
parallel. Additionally the board offers an extensive range of interfaces and
supports many of today's leading operating systems.

Glen Fawcett, Managing Director, Concurrent Technologies, commented:

'The PP 221/01x is a substantial improvement to the product offering within our
CompactPCI(R) range. The board serves both the networking and telecoms sector
which are areas of strategic growth for Concurrent Technologies and its
introduction will strengthen our presence within these expanding marketplaces'.

I have posted this from CNC website. The last RSN release was on 29th April and was a AGM statement. Can anyone say why they have not released this post as company news.

Low power, Pentium M based VME SBCs with multiple serialized data interfaces
Concurrent Technologies has released its latest Intel® Pentium® M processor based VME64x single board computers - the VP 347/02x supporting processor speeds up 1.8 GHz, and the 1.6 GHz processor based version – the VP 345/02x. Both products support up to 2Gbytes of 333MHz DDR ECC SDRAM and feature a wide variety of I/O interfaces. These high performance, yet low power boards are particularly suitable for high-speed data exchange, processing and storage in distributed or localized systems with a power consumption budget

[maximoney1] 15/5/2005 23:03

Anyone else think that this could have 50% upside over the next 12 months?

[carolineanne] 11/5/2005 09:30

Isn't it about time these shares started to move UP?

[jailbird] 05/4/2005 14:05

BD,

LOL..............been there too.

But seriously there has been some decent buying from the directors.
I thought about buying some at 20p but decided to wait..but then too late.
I wonder if we will get another crack again...dollar getting stronger which is good for CNC.

If U look at the holdings, there is not any free float around.
So MMs must be getting some from somewhere today.

[jailbird] 05/4/2005 11:35

are there any shares left to buy, MMs must be holding very little...
