Anyone else notice the late trade of 1.1 million shares?

[assagai] 16/3/2017 16:37

Yes , good to see CFEQ move on to the bid.

[monty68] 16/3/2017 16:22

onwards and upwards

[laugher] 16/3/2017 16:09

No, not taking much to move it northwards. Another order or two and we should certainly approach recent highs again.

[ny boy] 16/3/2017 16:02

No tightly he,d, should clear 9p resistance this month

[waggle] 16/3/2017 15:52

well looking at the volume there isnt a busting lot of stock about???...

[ny boy] 16/3/2017 12:11

I am very positive on this stock, I know a few people in the sector that said good things about this one, I am taking a long term view, not in any rush, it's been a good year for stock picking so far, very happy with progress.

The first half was always a gimme as they've been riding on the back of the two large orders announced in June and July 2016. The second half will be much more of a test as the comparison with last year's excellent second half will kick in. A very good year can become a stepping stone or a millstone as Leicester City are finding out. Let's hope for IGE it's the former.

Not sure how big this can grow. The market is large and growing. The new products look as if they could be transformatial though.

[ny boy] 22/2/2017 09:53

Patience, this one I like the look at for a long term hold 3-5 years.

Expecting great things from this Company, an acorn at present.

[amt] 22/2/2017 08:09

On the up this morning. Perhaps some good vibs from AGM after yesterdays very encouraging update.

[ny boy] 21/2/2017 12:53

Bought in this morning, looks a progressive play too me, looking forward to further postive rns's over the year. Agm @ 1.30pm should enlighten us further.

[amt] 21/2/2017 11:51

Give it time. Probably get some interest after agm feedback.

[clocktower] 21/2/2017 09:13

Upwards and onward, I am surprised that it has not advanced further this morning.

[amt] 21/2/2017 07:26

I get the impression that second half could be very strong with new product launches.
In particular PLD mid 2017 so on schedule and thats very exciting.

[amt] 21/2/2017 07:10

Trading statement. All looks very good. Strong trading and new products on or ahead of schedule. Delivery ahead of schedule so executing well on orders received.

[monty68] 31/12/2016 20:23

Lets cetainly hope so.

[peterblok] 30/12/2016 19:18

Would be nice if 2017 was as beneficial to our share price as 2016. Either way, I wish a happy and healthy New Year to all IGE investors

[mathematic] 16/12/2016 16:24

Cheers, Assagai.

Just to repeat what Bill actually says in that proactive investors interview :-

'We're ordering parts to build the second prototype and some demonstrator units and we expect to have these available round about March time next year, and then we'll be off into the market with the demonstrators looking for the first orders.'

It's a shame that the interviewer did not ask him whether the second prototype was a second version - incorporating various tweekings and changes - rather than a straightforward 'copy' of the current prototype. If it's a new version - prototype II - then building and soak-testing the new version will take a little more time. No big deal but always nice to know WHY something is happening rather than guessing why it's happening.

Nevertheless, assuming the second prototype - and demonstrators - are built and successfully tested during a March - May time-frame, then the sales operation should begin around June time. This means that there is a window of opportunity for orders from June - September for the 2016/17 financial year, though the level of any revenue recognition during this financial year is dependent on a number of factors, not least the dates of orders received as well as the manufacturing forecast schedule and capability. In any case, as Bill also indicates in that interview, whilst he seems to anticipate the Precision Linescan Detector making some contribution in the later part of 2016/17 - and we already know that there is interest amongst current and prospective customers for the PLD - the 'all systems go' year seems to be from financial year 2017/18 onwards when everything should be firing on all cylinders.

So perhaps a bit more clarity from that interview, but clearly a good few more months work still needed before we hopefully have something to sell at the end of it as regards the PLD. So not a question of any kind of 'doubting Thomas' - more a case of applying the rule of 'ye shall know them by their deeds' (ie I'll judge by what is actually done and not by what someone says will hopefully be done).
Here endeth the lesson. :-)

Thanks for the link Assegai, looks like that interview is bang up to date. The bit I liked the most was Mr Mawer's answer about sustaining the growth, very positive and looks as though the linescanner is just around the corner. I suppose building a second prototype allows them to do more demos to more potential customers for it.

[assagai] 16/12/2016 10:53

Here's a little Christmas Bonus, especially for the odd doubting Thomas!

[amt] 14/12/2016 21:58

. Discussions with current and potential customers support the requirement for the Precision Linescan Detector and we remain confident that this system will do well following its anticipated launch in financial year 2017

From interims. Still on schedule for launch in 2017. Prototype already available. Dont see any evidence for a delay.


From finals seems to be progressing for 2017 launch.

or markets where even higher performance is required, the Company is developing a Precision Linescan Detector using unique detection and image processing technology licensed exclusively to Image Scam from Ibex Innovations, a Durham University spinoff. The project is supported by a grant from Innovate UK, the first time the Company has had such a grant. A prototype has been produced and is demonstrating both exceptionally clear images and excellent materials discrimination. The grant completes in February 2017 and the system will be launched later in the year.
