HU owns 28m shares and c40m options. Buying 0.15m is peanuts - the cost of a bottle of wine for this ex Goldman Sachs partner. Hard to imagine many investors being impressed with this fake news. Derisory and desperate. Could have opposite effect. Imho. Dyor

I was told once this chap was so arrogant he made an investment mistake, he blamed others for his naivety.

Poor soul. He looked in the mirror and didn't like himself so blamed others.

Dire news not yet priced in @8p so heading for 3-5p. Rookie CEO must:

1) admit h1fy19, h2fy19 and h1fy20 will make it 19 losses in a row with this Board.

2) apologise and abandon fy19 breakeven lie and downgrade forecasts by 14-21 July 2018.

3) fire directors and management for leaving knowingly inflated fy18 and/or fy19 forecasts in the market when AiM rule 11 says the board must correct them promptly.

4) admit operations and structures are faulty and will take 18 months and cost £10m plus £18m ongoing losses to axe and replace. (£28m is about -5p per share).

5) further funding is needed by October 2019 given above inevitable losses.

SELL @8p. Take a view @3-5p after fy19 downgrade, blood on carpet, mass redundancy, office closures and relocation plan is priced in. Reality check:

A) If CEO rolls over to the Board then 0-3p by October 2019 as Administration or new team will axe everything.

B) Her 'software subsidiary manager' CV is light and the Board turkeys did not vote for Xmas.

C) Either a torrent of dire news or she's a poodle - price crash either way.

All imho. Dyor.

Ssr23,

Some holders are throwing in the towel.

Who?
What do you mean throwing in the towel? Forgive me, unless you've spoken to them, you're just making it up. Are you?

To put it into context, £34k shares have been sold and you call that throwing in the towel.

Its called trading.

[ssr23] 14/6/2018 13:09

8p now.

Some holders throwing in the towel. New CEO has a big challenge on her hands.

SELL now. You might be able to pick these up at 5p or below soon.

All imho. Dyor.

I agree Sirrux.

Silkstag, filtered, how's that possible when you complain to advfn about me using clause 11.

Do you have payments experience silkstag?

I'll not filter you, I enjoy seeing the little ticks.

Adyen $15bn, c. 800 employees. EPO <$100mn, c. 200 employees. One front end focused, the other back end focused - what's Amanda going to do? I know what I would do.

I've had a great day trading. Boom today.

[cryptotrade] 13/6/2018 15:56

Clause 11 is interesting I agree.

[silkstag] 13/6/2018 15:33

When fy19 breakeven lie is abandoned by 21 July what price crash will arise? 8.5p to 5p imho. dyor

There was a story I heard about a so called investor. They posted drivel on these boards for years. They use to be an ex investor at epo and also some form of close employee. They believed their arrogance was enough to be right all day long. Someone stood up to this bully and they were kicked out.

Oddly, they still believe when the look in the mirror their tripe is all good when its not. Denial is staring at them.

Its not whether one is right or not, its a question of the obsessive nature a person has on a stock. They must have a low life opinion of themselves. They must have no love in their life , at all. Sad and empty.


Hmm I wonder who they are?

Epo positive news


hxxps://paymentweek.com/2018-6-11-earthport-named-london-stock-exchange-groups-1000-companies-inspire-britain-report/

Company to inspire. Brilliant

Epo have a great chance to move forward.

They gave their clients, revenues, growing and now an opportunity to shape the US market for key clients of theirs which is super huge.

Imagine that. The market is changing fast and they are shaping that with corporates.

Once revenue of 1m, now topping 30m plus. Growing any company is not easy. Some cowards think it is because they're arrogant. It's not. They've already to thin chasing too many deals. They're focusing on clients, building that revenue with them and shaping up to the future delivering some real clearing.

Rookie CEO first questions:

1) what is a loss?
2) what is a turnaround?
3) why did this board have 16 losses in a row when they were hired to turnaround?
4) what is the payments industry?
5) what is an RNS?
6) what is AiM?
7) what is AiM rule 11?
8) what are shareholders, investors and the market?
9) why has this board left knowingly inflated fy18 and/or fy19 forecasts in the market when AiM rule 11 says the board must correct them promptly?
10) if I do not downgrade fy18 and/or fy19 inflated forecasts by 14-21 July, will the market think I am a write-off?
11) if I fail to sack the majority of the dirty bungling board by the AGM will the market think I am a write-off?
12) why is the market cap more than £30m (5p) when all operations and structures are faulty and will take 18 months and cost £10m plus £18m ongoing losses to axe and replace?

SELL @8.5p urgently. Take a view @5p after fy19 downgrade, blood on boardroom carpet, mass redundancy, office closures and relocation plan is priced in.

All imho. Dyor.

I've lost my pants today, it's the 20th time this week. Someone keeps picking them, someone said it's some dude hiding behind the shed.
