someone care to explain how this company is only valued at .22m when making profits of 1.3 million what ami missing?

[djderry] 26/7/2011 08:32

No. 1 in the top list of gainers! The share price is not showing a much larger volume of shares that have gone through at a much higher price,I know this 'cause I had to pay for them!!

One day it will recognise the revenue from Phase 4 . Nevertheless better than i thought they would do . Even diluted eps was 0.6p . Debt reduced also. Shame they dont recognise value of library at all when it has a conservative estimate of $70 mil.

[djderry] 26/7/2011 08:02

What is the 'considerable upside' from its involvement in Phase 4,Collins Ave and Spirit Digital?

[dpmcq] 26/7/2011 07:35

Results much better than expected!!

[pimp] 26/7/2011 07:29

GOOD RESULTS !

[djderry] 25/7/2011 20:35

Negotiate with the pref shareholders (i.e.,themselves and Syntek) to do a small share buy-back,half a mill will do the trick,do not award any more directors shares in lieu of fees,continue to pay down debt and obtain another library (on a sales agency basis to cut costs) and,finally,have the directors buy a share or two.The result:a share price back to 20p.

Has any one managed to make contact with the Ivestor relation chap, or the company for there take on this latest drop in value?

[pimp] 25/7/2011 12:57

i think the results look like they are going to be bad - delayed results, directors daughter selling just before, MM dropping the price heavily on small sales.Only points to one thing. It would take a miracle to get this back to where it was due to the way this company is dealt with by the directors.

[cardiffian] 25/7/2011 12:02

you know, it's not so much the dropping share price that hurts anymore. What does make my stomach churn is not knowing the reason why. It wouldn't surprise me if one of these days an RNS appears stating that Syntek no longer have a notifiable interest. I hope it is them because the drip-feeding's been going on for the last 2-3 yrs and the selling should be close to the end and the share price will inevitably jump back up, knowing that the overhang is finally cleared.

Of course I'm just speculating but it would not surprise me in the slightest if it was Syntek responsible for our current woes.

IMO

looks like someone wants this off the market, even if the results are half decent and we see a 50% rise that will take us up to the dizzy heights of 1p.

[cardiffian] 25/7/2011 10:57

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear !!!

[fft] 25/7/2011 07:39

traditionally, good news is released early, so whilst results may be ok, there will probably be a sting in the tail for the 'ordinary' shareholders.

[diesel] 24/7/2011 22:41

the statement in March suggests that the results will be solid and in line with managements expectation. To me that reads like they will be much the same as last year, perhaps slightly higher profits an much the same turnover. Last year they made a small profit and reduced debt by 4m, if they do the same this year it should be seen as a positive for the share price and at these depressed levels we might be surprised by the reaction.

[pimp] 24/7/2011 20:51

more than likely down if the last 3 years are anything to go by....but you never know.

[djderry] 24/7/2011 19:40

I predict that this week the share price will go up.Or else down.Or,perhaps,stay the same.

[pimp] 23/7/2011 13:35

seems they cant even be bothered issuing results now !

[diesel] 23/7/2011 10:17

has to be next week, isn't that the last legal timeframe?

[cardiffian] 22/7/2011 23:08

I suspect results will be announced next week. They were probably waiting to add the 'Robotech' news below to the statement.

[diesel] 20/7/2011 23:24

Maybe results tomorrow, it was this time last year......

[sscrabble] 20/7/2011 22:56

Whatever happened to the multi-million pounds of library assets they were so proud of?

[djderry] 20/7/2011 21:35

At the risk of sounding like an apologist for the co.,I think the newsflow has been positive enough.They continue to source new material,'Heartland ' is becoming global,'Thorne' making progress,they're concentrating on bigger budget movies,etc.Obviously,as independents,they don't get the big blockbuster films,but they can use that to their advantage,i.e. if they become the first port -of-call for independent producers.My understanding is the co. can only post an RSN if it is likely to materially influence the share price.As regards the directors,it's in no one's interest to have the shareprice at this level.Syntek and Mr.Schmidt own many of the pref. shares,not to mention the millions of ordinary shares owned by Syntek.The co. needs to concentrate on what they can control: the aquisition of quality product,cost control,particularly with regards to Collins Avenue (though,to be fair,they seem to be securing some broadcast series at last) and at Spirit Digital.(I still remain to be convinced that they need to have a digital production co. as well as a digital distribution division.)The full year results will hopefully indicate how they intend to restore shareholder value.

[pimp] 19/7/2011 19:56

well lets see what the directors plan. Thats the problem with AIM stocks - so easy to shaft PIs.It boils down to the integrity of the directors. Interesting to see what syntek might have to say and the preferential share holders ( redeemed at26p! -fat chance of that with these directors ). If it gets any lower i might launch a hostile takeover myself!

[cardiffian] 19/7/2011 16:38

that's just my point, even a layman can see that this was not incompetence but the wilful destruction of the share price by the intentional lack of newsflow given by the bod over the last 2 yrs leading to a privatisation thereafter (if that is what happens), which when compared to the time-line prior to the sp's decline and the constant newsflow that occurred then - whilst the price was rising - sounds to me like good grounds for legal argument.

again IMO.

[pimp] 19/7/2011 16:29

These direstors have no clue how to run a company on the LSE. I agree their actions or lack of are highly suspicious.
