elmfield :- try looking on the plus market as dmatek is also traded there.

the main market trades.

TRIED FOR TEN AT 150, GOT 2.5K

Carroll,

fear not, I was buying many moons ago when others saw little interest. My previous post merely cautioned against over-exuberance in these difficult times.

[oohrogerpalmer] 22/10/2008 11:27

Think it will get taken out 190 - 200p
Most other shares are in red today.

its like pulling teeth this

[carroll] 22/10/2008 10:45

spaceparallax. in my judgement this is a screaming 5 star buy.

Carroll,

If only you were to be proved correct - sadly, in these difficult times such hopes are but a distant dream. All said, I remain very happy to hold these.

looking back some 10 years this was hot stock and rose to over 300p. It is run well, a sound company with great cash flow,IMHO i see it returning to those levels quite soon.A safe port in stormy weather.

[elmfield] 21/10/2008 10:13

it was cut and pasted a few posts back, maybe that would suffice for you?

I have been unable to read the link 'due to high server load'. Anyone else having this problem?.

[elmfield] 21/10/2008 09:33

sent the FT link to DTK: Thought they should know what we are looking for!

Dear --------,


Thank you for the link.

No updates as yet, we'll be sure to keep investors informed with developments as appropriate,

Kind regards,

HOLTS :- depends what you mean by a blockbuster price,cant see it being less than £2.00 as LMS have to get the other large shareholders onboard,if they have
not already got the promise of their vote.that israeli newspaper story leaking the bid news said that LMS and dmatek were in advanced negotiations,if that is the case then the large shareholders might already be onboard and its just a matter of dotting the i's and crossing the t's before all shareholders can vote on it,if dmatek are in agreement with the bid.only time will tell.

as always dyor

[holts] 20/10/2008 10:35

lms are quite conservative , hence the position they find themselves in, I am encouraged that they have the relationship with one of the large holders, but we are clearly not going to get a blockbuster price..... I know , stating the obvious.

[funchalman] 20/10/2008 09:13

oohrogerpalmer:- no time indication,it will take as long as it takes.
look for a sudden large movement in price,that will probably tell you an announcement is due the next day.the direction of the movement will tell you the answer on the bid.

[oohrogerpalmer] 20/10/2008 09:04

Is there any sort of time indication of news on this be it yes or no ???

[funchalman] 20/10/2008 08:48

Dr Know :- thanks for that article,it just about sums up my feelings on the deal.the main reason this bid has come about is the shareprice performance over the last few years has not really valued dmatek at its true potential.its just unfortunate that this has come about at a time of a market crash and did not happen last year.

and opportunity creates wealth

[elmfield] 20/10/2008 08:30

this market creates Opportunity.

Looking at the rate of growth of this co it is not difficult to see a doubling of op profit in the next 4 to 5 years to £8m.

LMS could then pick a time to sell it back to the market at a big profit.

If £44m was the offer they could use say £20m debt and £24m equity.

Cash flow would easily cover interest costs. If they could IPO it on a good day for 14 times op profit then the value would be £112m.

Pay off the £20m debt and pocket £92m. Not bad for a £24m investment.

Or is it daylight robbery? That is how investment firms make money. From opportunistic investments when others sleep.

[elmfield] 16/10/2008 18:14

well I tried for 5k up to 10k at 135 on the phone to dealers and they did not want to know,
