There u go

[pljohnson] 16/11/2005 09:43

I will be looking for rns approx midday. If they get the go ahead then the ceg stuff should flow pretty fast. I expect they have the filing papers ready and can submit to ofex almost immediately.

Definitely 1 for 5. If resolotion gets passed today, then as per this mornings announcement, the cut-off date for the consolidation of the EPE ordinary
shares will be 4.35pm today. The ISIN code following consolidation
will be GB00BON9QD87, and new share certificates will be issued to replace the
existing share certificates.

[pljohnson] 16/11/2005 07:40

1 for 5 i believe

[encarter] 16/11/2005 07:22

Just remind me, was it a 1 for 5?

[krishall] 15/11/2005 17:52

So D-Day tomorrow....

[pljohnson] 10/11/2005 11:12

[eyeful] 10/11/2005 10:43

any date yet for the CEG listing on OFEX??

[pljohnson] 09/11/2005 17:05

all quiet on the epe front. not long till egm and thereafter things should start to move apace

[krishall] 04/11/2005 14:51

Well at least the Ask price is now above what I paid...
So just waitin for the Bid price to rise as well.
If it does, then I guess it'll be onward and upward.

[encarter] 03/11/2005 17:45

At least we're moving in the right direction, amny news on the float?

[pljohnson] 03/11/2005 13:31

and again up 3% on the back on an 80k buy.

[pljohnson] 02/11/2005 20:27

Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs..

We're up.
Mercedes you could be right.

IMHO ridiculously undervalued, but like many small caps off the radar at the moment.

But if you look at the other ipos handled by London Asia (Betex, China Eastsea) and the Plus Markets investment, all are rising strongly.

Hopefully we will get similar with CEG. It is a little unique, making 2.5mn profit with a 3x increase in student capacity underway over next 3 years.

And our cap - 1.8-1.9mn. Just plain value imho

GB

Don`t write them of yet.................just keep watching.

[pljohnson] 31/10/2005 12:04

Well I guess we are all locked in. Cant sell much and most of that is below bid.

Regrettably this is off the radar of most. If it was on the radar the company have done precious little to highlight the value of their stake in ceg (WHICH IS CONSERVATIVELY WORTH MORE THAN DOUBLE CURRENT CAP).

The ipo should resolve that problem, but in the interim I am not going to worry to much about a few sellers and mkt cap.

imho

[gaybriefs] 31/10/2005 11:59

This has to be one of the biggest disappointments ever.just 0.7p now to sell!!
When is this scratched record going to be able to move on without the same old selling day in day out.
I bought these at 1.6p and have had to write them off!!

[pljohnson] 30/10/2005 13:49

Ofex more lightly reulatd than aim. Therefore in a generic sense yes there is more risk as there are less controls.

But you find that some companies list on ofex as a precursor to a move to aim as they become more established and I think that will happen with china education group (epe's main investment).

Dont forget whilst you can say there in increased risk on ofex, they are still regulated/audited etc and often very solid profitable companies choose to list on ofex.

imho

[dally4] 30/10/2005 12:27

New to this game, could you please tell me what the difference is between AIM and Ofex? is there more risk involved,can I trade in the usual way?
Thanks Guys

Not directly related to EPE - but might be of interest to China education watchers -

Interseting times. You've only got to put "China Education Group" in google to see how busy they are. Prospectus was due out mid October so hopefully the float will be soon.

[krishall] 26/10/2005 04:59

Well I guess there aren't many people following this stock given the small number of postings. I'm quite happy with that as I hope it'll give me a chance to accumulate some more once I have some additional funds. Let's see if any of the shere tipsters pick-up on this stock.

I agree with plj in that the true China story is only just beginning. That combined with specializing in educational provision means that providing this company has reasonable management and good contacts then it should be a roaring success in the long term.

Would assume the 5 times increase in the share price (due to the consolidation) will (theoetically) allow narrower % spread on bid / offer. Let's see if this happems in practice. In share splits then overall market cap usually gets a boost on the day of the event - is the opposite true in consolidations?

Finally a last thought on the consolidation - one disadvantage is I won't be able to impress the wife again by saying "I've just bought another half million shares, dear". KH.

[encarter] 25/10/2005 21:38

I don't get it. Are they going to buy shares in CEG post floatation? and are we going to see 2.8m added to next profit? Can someone explain please, it's all over my head.
