Morning all...anyone going to the AGM??? If so can you post any info as and when.

Holding the 40p mark well....fingers crossed for more good news and a further push.

Guys, keep an eye on AXO, espec the trades over the last few days. Most of the vol has a letter next of some sort next to the trade and have been at the mid price. extremely large volume too. Price has risen, which indicates to me that they are buys. p/e of around 6,cash worth more than market cap....take a look at the recovery SAP has made in the last 2 weeks, also DIA as responded too....dyor...

Come on EID...get back over a quid pls....lol....;-)

Danka Business Systems PLC

$7 million Contract Win to Upgrade Humana's Document Output Systems

- Danka @ the Desktop solution will enhance functionality, improve
productivity, and reduce costs -

Danka Business Systems PLC, a leading independent global provider of office
imaging systems and services, today announced that it has been awarded a
five-year contract with Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM) to upgrade that firm's office
imaging equipment at locations across the United States and to provide all
installation, maintenance, and supply services during that period. The estimated
value of the contract, based on current volume projections, exceeds $7 million.



The Danka @ the DesktopTM solution calls for Danka to replace much of Humana's
older analogue equipment with network-connected Toshiba(R) digital systems,
including multifunction, colour, and high-volume devices. The upgrade will
enable Humana to integrate most of its copy, print, fax, and scan capabilities -
improving employee productivity and significantly reducing the overall equipment
footprint. Danka's recently formed U.S. Professional Services operation will
install and connect the new systems, while its highly regarded U.S. Technical
Services group will provide all required maintenance and supplies during the
term of the contract. Danka will also oversee user training.



"Humana is a forward-looking company that has embraced new technologies, and we
are pleased to partner with them on the Humana Print Output Project," said Todd
Mavis, chief operating officer of Danka's U.S. Group. "Danka was selected for
this important initiative because of our ability to develop and implement a
high-value solution that expands Humana's capabilities while simultaneously
reducing their overall document costs." The Humana Print Output Project is an
initiative to rightsize and upgrade Humana's print infrastructure.



The project will be managed by Danka's U.S. Enterprise Group, which specialises
in providing integrated solutions to more complex businesses with multiple
locations, in collaboration with Humana's IT team. Equipment upgrades will be
made at Humana's offices in 18 states, featuring Toshiba's e-STUDIO series of
workgroup multifunction devices, high-volume systems, and colour units. As a
leading independent provider of copiers and printers, Danka offers best-of-breed
imaging products that provide its clients with choice and flexibility.



"The Humana contract epitomises what Danka @ the Desktop is all about," noted
Donald W. Thurman, Danka's chief growth and marketing officer. "By bringing
together several of Danka's substantial resources, including the connectivity
expertise of our Professional Services group, we will deliver immediate annual
cost savings of 18% to Humana. In addition, the upgrade will provide Humana with
a platform for further enhancements to their document processes, including the
installation of software to provide improved resource utilisation and cost
tracking."

1) Price crossed 50 day moving average on 10 times normal volume...Very Bullish!!!




2) This ONE TRADE (10/18/02 - 10:13:15 - 1,269,600 ) could be our 1.2 Million Short Share position that has been working hard to manipulate the price downward, finally gave up and covered...If not, a Fund Manager just took a Substantial position...Either way...Very Bullish!!!
