Bought a few back in CRA for the prospect of a mini re-rating. Phil Cartmell will want TP Group (Technology and Partnership) to start off well and I suspect directors may buy a few shares to help matters.

Saw Edison published a report yesterday and they forecast in 2016 an Ebitda profit of £0.3m and a PBT loss of £0.7m-all for FWIW,. Not sure if this is the analyst that the CFO quoted at the AGM
Anyone read a decent broker report on CRA recently??

Yes volume looked good,not often you get close to 1m traded.
Most trades look like genuine buys but strange 50k,100k bundles.

Could be an institutional holder adding or a newcomer building a position.
A bit early to jump to any conclusions but it will be interesting to see what the rest of the week brings.

I doubt it's just 'white noise' Brucie, given the volume of buying today and recently.

Cerrito, thanks for taking the time to report back from agm.
Very good to hear that management was enthusiastic about the Spirax Serco deal as this could be a very nice earner and straight to the bottom line.

The gas expansion energy capture is the next project that could bring some financial reward for the millions spent and I'm indebted to our resident disgruntled,bitter ex-employee in a previous post for clearing up the delay as this equipment was scheduled for shipping/ testing some time ago.
On this matter could I point out to the same bitter ex-employee that this is what happens with a prototype and Corac are no longer in the business of having a large and expensive technical staff that have hardly proved to be value for money in the past.
Obviously the prototype problem has been tested and the company was confident enough to send this equipment out for testing.
Management's first aim was to stop CER hemorrhaging cash and if some time in the near future they can actually make this unit cash positive then we would certainly be off to the races.

Anyone noticing this morning's movement? May just be white noise, but chart seems on a course to 6p. Potential bowl?

supernumerary (303) "How can that not be dilution?"

The statement in the preceeding posting was not "no dilution" but was "no ADDITIONAL dilution".

In other words, the original options, when exercised, would have caused dilution. The new options cover the same number of shares, so whatever dilution there was hasn't changed.



The potentially appropriate consequence of the replacement options is that the directors' profits are likely to be lower(*), since the share prices involved are much lower.

(*) ... unless they issue EVEN MORE options.

Also at AGM the issue of the resetting the options came up. The answer from the Chairman was as one would expect that they needed to do the resetting to keep the morale up of senior management and thought the need to get the price at 50% up from the rights issue price was the correct one.

Although I have had shares for a couple of years this is the first time I have made it to the AGM.
Good questions were asked about how the company was going and also about the new management structure. While management answered all the questions, in a funny way I left the meeting not much the wiser.
We were told that a deliberate decision was made to fully understand Hunt and ACI after buying them to make sure that they were sound businesses before integrating them given integration is where the major m and a risks are. CEO was upbeat about the new structure and that they have now for the first time a sales/business development capacity and can capture the synergies in the group. Good words and of course the proof of the pudding will be in the eating.
Were told that the market consensus was for them to the ebitda profitable next year and they of course hoped to beat that. An Ebitda profit would of course be good noting here they pay no tax nor interest but do have D&A of £1.3m pa.
Made positive noises about Spirak-Serco deal.
Also upbeat on the submarine business; high barriers of entry; only countries with the capacity to what they do are USA(which as I understood it is expensive), China and Russia. Also mentioned good potential to do servicing although this is long lead time. Concern expressed about how easy it was for them to get long term business given their financial structure and size. Did not get a clear answer to this but told they are of course benefit from being small and nimble.
They were asked if they were not too stretched being such a small company working throughout the world but said that they get leads from brokers as well as oem’s.
Talked about making further acquisitions which of course would be where the new company brings something to the group in a critical area and of course does not absorb cash.
Discussed the downhole gas compressors. Recognized that with current oil prices far too challenging and this has been put in hibernation. Also CEO recognized that having a bespoke unit for every well which was at the end of its life did not make sense and also fact that only works out with wells that are dry and not always practical to establish before hand which wells are dry.

I wonder how much a name change costs.

Doesnt seem a very good name - says nothing at all about the company

Is it named after The Prophet, or maybe Total Phil

All a lot of effort to try and distance Phil from the past failures!

I do not mind the BoD getting options @ 10p, if the share price trebles from here.

The question you have to ask is are these options worth the paper they ae written on. I cant recall them ever being reached before so why worry.

In terms of dilution I was simply going by the number of shares issued.
I certainly believe that most here would take 15p and very few would complain that the company was only getting 10p from the management.
Once again there is a difference between buying at 40p and buying at under 5p.
There has been ample opportunity to buy at under 5p for the last few months.

fernandesb and other new boys, you don't need to wait until you can attend an AGM to find out what your BOD is like, read Supernumerary's and other long term sufferers' postings and you will see that what he says is totally valid.
