Posted at 15/1/2006 14:21 by elgordo This week's Investors Chronicle has an article about five privately held tech companies that can be invested in indirectly, of which the fifth is Sphere (via GEN, of course). Got dragged away from Sainsburys magazine rack to look at more important things like the weekly food shop before I got a chance to read it, though. Anyone else seen it? |
Posted at 19/12/2005 08:49 by maytrees Indy comments today:"...awards fuels interest in CMR CMR Fuel Cells, which claims to have developed a revolutionary type of fuel cell technology, will debut on AIM this week. Investec Securities, the group's broker, has had little trouble raising money for the company. In fact, it was forced to increase the size of the fund raising from £8m to £10-12m because of investor demand. This will value the company at about £35m. CMR, founded by Michael Priestnall and Michael Evans, has developed a fuel cell which converts methanol into electricity. To start with, the group plans to target the consumer electronics markets where existing batteries are struggling to produce the performance increasingly required by users of mobile phones and laptops. CMR says its fuel cells can produce more power than anything currently available of that size. The group has picked up an impressive array of awards over the past year. These have included the 2005 Carbon Trust Overall Innovator of the Year award and the Carbon Trust Small Business award. It was also named by Harvard Business School as one of the 25 companies most likely to change the world by 2010. CMR is definitely one for investors to keep an eye on in the months after its float."

CMR’s products can be built using printing or roll-to-roll techniques – improving reliability and further reducing costs.

The editorial team at Red Herring, the leading magazine of business technology and innovation, has selected companies that have demonstrated outstanding achievements since their inception, representing the most instrumental players in leading the technology industry. Red Herring’s editorial staff rigorously evaluated more than 600 private companies through a careful analysis of financial data and subjective criteria, including quality of management, execution of strategy, and dedication to research and development. “We are delighted that Red Herring has recognised the validity of our vision of CMR delivering the promise of instant re-charge, long run-time and low cost to the portable electronics industry,” said John Halfpenny, CEO of CMR Fuel Cells Ltd. “We are poised to enable a new generation of products, for the first time exploiting the massive increases in power available from fuel cells when compared with traditional battery power.” “Our list shows that despite obstacles posed by regulations, bureaucracy and tradition, innovation and entrepreneurship continues to thrive in Europe,” said Red Herring editor-in-chief Joel Dreyfuss. Red Herring’s lists of top private companies are an important part of the magazine’s tradition of identifying new and innovative technology companies and entrepreneurs. Companies like Google and eBay were spotted in their early days by Red Herring editors as those that would change the way we live and work.

The size of the global in vitro diagnostic market is estimated at $23 billion per annum, growing steadily each year particularly in the point-of-care sector in which Sphere will operate.

In many ways we feel that this is a great demonstration of our consultancy divisions' proficiency in identifing potential commercial opportunities in under utilised intellectual property. Moreover, taking Sphere to this point of its development demonstrates the way in which our consultancy, development and investment divisions cooperate to fully capture the commercial potential of new technologies. We are delighted for the Sphere team and look forward to reporting on their future progress.' |

Posted at 28/1/2004 12:32 by rambutan2 heres one that came good. pity we had to dump the shares...Synaptics (SYNA : NASDAQ : US$19.70) Net Change: 3.50, % Change: 21.60%, Volume: 1,358,900 Looking for a hands-on investment? Synaptics sparked the interest of many investors Friday after saying its December quarter earnings nearly doubled, beating analysts' expectations, with a 42 percent revenue boost that was driven by sales of interface products used in notebook computers. The maker of TouchPad systems that act as a mouse and control the cursor of notebooks, PDAs and MP3 players recently introduced the SpeakerPad, which doubles as both the TouchPad and speaker in a notebook computer. Cooo-eeellll. So where is Synaptics going from here? The company says the March quarter will be in parity with the December quarter sales, and expects "the June quarter to be higher than in March." |

Posted at 01/9/2003 13:31 by rambutan2 bit of extra meat in this from the cambridge news...Losses down as Generics Group heads for profit Generics Group says it is heading back towards profit after the worst period in the consulting industry in 30 years. The Harston-based group, which says it is still in negotiations over a possible sale, announced interim results showing sales up from £6.2m a year ago to £6.8m, and losses down from £8.7m to £6.9m. At the same time the group has announced restructuring that sees the business split into four distinct areas in a bid to achieve greater transparency for investors. Peter Hyde, who came out of semi-retirement to see the group through its darkest hour, steps down as chief executive and will retire again at the end of the year. As from September 1, Simon Davey takes over as chief executive of the consulting business and development of intellectual property, while Martin Frost becomes managing director and chief financial officer of the holding company. Mr Frost will also be responsible for a new property company within the group, managing buildings at Harston worth £16.5m. He will also be in charge of the management of group investments in spin-out companies. Chris Coghill will remain in charge of asset management involving outside investments. Speaking at a special briefing held at Harston yesterday, Mr Hyde, who says he will soon be spending his days restoring an old tractor and playing with his grandchildren, explained why the group was being re-structured: "We want the stock market to see how the company really works. We want to show that an operating loss can represent a hot investment." He added: "This year, Scientific Generics is highly profitable, but we are hoist by the rather peculiar structure of our business." The financials have been helped this half by the sale of Generics' holding in former spin-out, Synaptics. The sale has brought in £3.1m at a profit of £1.4m. Generics has also bought the assets of another former spin-out, Quantum Beam, from the liquidator for £160,000. Unsurprisingly, the value of the group's investment portfolio is down to a third of what it was a year ago at £11.1m compared with £34.4m. There has been an 11% reduction in operating costs, from £14.2m a year ago down to £12.6m, brought about largely as a result of salary cuts among the higher paid employees, decision to dispense with an HR supremo at director level, and reduction in travelling. Regarding a possible sale, Mr Hyde said: "Talks are ongoing. We were obliged to say something due to the share price changing, but it was something we might otherwise not have said. "We have discovered that the City is an extraordinarily leaky place when it comes to share price movement." However, he said another announcement would be made in September regarding long-term plans. Asked whether he and his fellow directors had ever thought of throwing in the towel during what he described as the worst period in consulting in 30 years, Mr Hyde answered an emphatic "never". Generics is 49% owned by Ikea's Swedish holding company, with Generics' founder, Gordon Edge, holding 10%. Mr Hyde said the company had always had strong support from its majority shareholders. * Simon Davey is 52 and a graduate of Churchill College, Cambridge, where he read natural sciences. He worked at Metals Research in Melbourn before joining PA Consulting, ran his own business for a while, joined Coopers & Lybrand and came to Generics in 1995. His other claim to fame is as the UK's most successful non-professional racing driver in terms of championships won - 13 titles - and he continues to race in Classic Formula Ford events. * Martin Frost, 40, is a graduate of Christ's College, Cambridge where he read history. He is a chartered accountant and has worked for Simon Engineering in Manchester, and GEC Marconi. His career has spanned the globe and he has been much involved in merger and acquisitions work. He was head-hunted to join Generics in 1997. |
