Thick prat!

Propane you gaseous fart - made money throughout.
Are you still pretending to work for DAN BTW?

[yohoho] 11/5/2009 18:25

A coincidence I am sure - the market caps are quite different!

[lr4850] 11/5/2009 18:12

Interesting that both SP's are the same bid, ask and spread? I will never break even on this one.

[yohoho] 11/5/2009 18:10

Quite possible - however the imputed value of DGT has to be 6p or better to satisfy the rules. If its a merger expect a higher imputed price. However I don't see a merger. Much more likely that Blue would seek to cut a lot of cost out of the business whilst retaining as many clients as possible. Just my view but see little downside from here now.

[lr4850] 11/5/2009 17:02

Could it be that they have both settled for a merger; just like Blue attempted with WH Ireland a few months back?

[yohoho] 11/5/2009 15:40

Buyers are back. Does someone know something?

G+

Many thanks, it reinforces how incompetent they are along with DGT.

[gengulphus] 30/4/2009 09:08

Thanks, I've found it now - .

It's a regulatory requirement that when a director is appointed to the board of a company, all his current and past directorships within some reasonably large number of years are disclosed to shareholders. I believe the reason for the requirement is precisely so that shareholders can check whether the new director has a habit of running companies that go bust...

In this case, the list of directorships given in the April 14th RNS referred to seems to have been incomplete, and the new RNS is completing it. It's a bit of a cheek saying that it is "by way of clarification", though - a clarification is what you provide when all the information was present but it could be misinterpreted, not when some of it was absent. They mean something like "by way of rectification of omissions in the original announcement"...

was announcement yesterday by blue about directorships? thanks G+

So frigging what as regards todays RNS?

Which RNS? Last one I see is but that's from a week ago...

If you're asking "So what?" about that RNS, I'd say the answer is probably "So the Takeover Panel told Dowgate that their wording was potentially confusing and they had to clarify it."

So frigging what as regards todays RNS? What's the betting most of those companies he was in charge of went bust. Why doesn't DGT become the aggressor and seek to buy Blue? Oh, I forgot, they spent all the share holders cash on bonuses and incentives ! Silly me.

[propane] 27/4/2009 10:49

Hope some of you took note when i mentioned 'peg' here recently..........have a look at their rns released today.......still time to get in at a rock bottom price to recover dgt losses....buy price currently 0.7p (was 0.4p when i tipped them, i'm in from 0.27p.......holding 700k)

Expect more good news in their results next month.


RNS Number : 1688R
Petards Group PLC
27 April 2009

Petards Group plc ('Petards' or 'the Company')

Contract awards

Petards, the AIM quoted developer of advanced security and surveillance systems, announces that it has been awarded two major contracts to supply and install Petards new generation of eyeTrain® on-board digital CCTV systems on locomotives and passenger vehicles.

The first from a UK train operating company, which is worth in excess of £3m, is for the supply and installation of eyeTrain® systems to over 390 passenger vehicles and includes forward facing cameras on two classes of locomotives. Deliveries are expected to commence in the second half of 2009 and to be completed by the end of 2010.

The second contract placed by Hyundai Rotem of Korea, is for the supply of eyeTrain® systems for 90 new Matangi EMU cars that they are supplying to Greater Wellington Railways. Forward facing cameras will also be fitted to these cars. The contract value is £0.8m and deliveries are expected to commence in the second half of 2009 and to be completed by the middle of 2010.

Commenting on the awards, Petards Chief Executive Bill Conn said 'These contracts have been secured from important players in both the UK and worldwide transport sectors and we are delighted to have the opportunity to work with both of them. These are significant contracts for us and their award demonstrates the strong position that Petards holds within the rail industry and that customers value both the flexibility and rail-proven nature of our eyeTrain® product.'

When is the AGM ? I think some of you should attend as missing it last year cost you a lot of money.

[lr4850] 22/4/2009 15:50

Thanks yhh

In these at a hefty loss; serves me right. Been contemplating limited options one of which was trying to average down if DGT were to get 11p. Not sure, this share has been seriously bad to me and little prospects for improvement.

[yohoho] 22/4/2009 15:46

Reading it, it would appear that they were asked to clarify the statement by the Takeover Panel. It also gives them wriggle room to accept a 6p bid should it emerge. Based on the results, I would be surprised to see Blue Oar bid totally in cash, but use an element of cash in a predominantly share-based bid. They may of course choose to walk away. Would you blame them?

[davidosh] 22/4/2009 15:46

How many bought DGT years ago so that it could be bought off them in an MBO at the bottom for nearly a tenth of the price ?

[lr4850] 22/4/2009 15:32

Why the recent RNS? IMHO they are trying to put a positive spin on a dire situation they created.

[propane] 22/4/2009 11:00

Cant believe someone just bought some!!.......money to throw away.
