Looks like people know something.
Some money being raised? For an acquisition?

Holding these for a few years, expecting double digits by this time next year. Steady as she blows!

At least if Brexit goes wrong and causes damage to the economy its not relevant to IGE so a bit of a defensive play in that respect. Infact Dollar denominated sales should help with margins. I am tempted to hold on a bit longer in hope of lower price before buying more. I expect this share to be in double figures in a year or so. Not sure how big the potential is long term.

Hi Assagai, yes that is amusing. Just to put the £1 / £2 comment to bed it was only a general response to amt recommending valuation based on turnover. It was not a specific comment about Image Scan. I hope their new kit generates some good sales.

I'm intrigued by today's RNS. Old Mutual increased its holding to 8.7%. I assume this is a result of the resent placing, but why would the holding be indirect? Does that mean (say) that they have bought shares on behalf of clients for whom they have the discretion to trade?

Appols Mr Macgregor, a rather amusing if not intentional typo self spell from my Android. I do know this company fairly well and whilst not wishing to come up with a plaster for every sore i would point out that the last year's order book relative strength was due to two very large orders received not long before the close. This in itself tested the company's ability to deal with such orders which it did thus proving its appetite for future similar pressures ( they had never had orders remotely of that magnitude before) . Whilst the gross margin may have declined a little, my point was simply to illustrate a counter to your sell for £1 when cost is £2 which clearly does not reflect the actual situation. the very small decline in margin was i think due to an upturn in cheaper items sold although there is no suggestion that this has formed a trend. As for the order book, well no crystal ball obviously but there is a suite of new and upgraded kit about to be available....

What do you mean by macerator Mr. Sensitive? Mine was a fair point. If I told you I've bought a Frankel yearling for a million guineas and it's a bargain because it's going to win the Derby in two years time you would rightly call me an idiot. The investment strategy put forward by amt is along those lines. The £1 for £2 comment was illustrative of the danger of investing in a company on the basis of turnover and not a reflection of how IGE does business. Anyway, I've looked at the gross margin as you suggest and it's declining along with the size of the order book.

Mr Macerator,a simple look at gross margins currently being achieved would rather discount that view! Personally I am happy with progress at present and optimistic for a good outcome.the Ceo tipping in another £25k would suggest he is too.

amt, I'm not saying this will not turn out to be a good bet, I'm just disagreeing with your use of the word bargain. You can hardly call something a bargain based on guessed future profit. I've invested in a number of bargains in my time that were priced below tangible book value, had a track record of making profits and also threw in a dividend. I wouldn't buy anything based on a multiple of turnover either. Sell something people want for £1 that costs £2 to make and you'll have great turnover for a while.

NY Boy, most of us have been in this "little gem" for years, and are well under water, but I am cautiously optimistic for the future. Just hope I live long enough to enjoy the eventual rewards !!

Excellent developments, in for the long term, this Company is quietly going places and still under the radar, added a few more this morning.

Mr Macgregor I think you are making the mistake of looking backwards not forwards. Its pointless trying to look at a pe when a company is just breaking even. Going forward a profit of only 500k would put it on a pe of 7 and 1m 3.5 so thats why I believe its a bargain. Also if you take 3 times sales as a value its a better guide. As for cash its being used to support future growth.

Interesting how share price moved towards the placing price in last few days. Often seems to happen. Its only 8% dilution and its requirement to finance large contracts is encouraging so perhaps on the verge of some large contracts which would be transformational. Also ceo is putting his money where his mouth is I will follow his guidence.

I struggle to see how you regard it as a bargain price amt. Considering the last 12 month period which was a bumper year by historical standards I have it priced at a pe of 30 and at 9 times book value, both of which appear rather rich. In the last half year they booked a profit of £0.111 but that wasn't supported by the cash position as there was a net outflow in the half of £0.566 leaving cash at £0.469m which looked a bit thin so I'm not surprised by the news of a placing.

Getting to a bargain price now. Its amazing how little companies can loose a lot of value on little value. I am waiting to load up but might be greedy and wait a bit longer. I expect we wont get any news until July when probably have news on orders.

Different company from the past, evidence is that is has now turned the corner and is profitable, with plenty still to go for.

I would expect - post May's security show - that new portable orders might also be RNS'ed.

People,
Do not believe that ADVFN's prognostications as to whether a transaction is a sale or purchase are correct, they are not! I can assure you that the first deal of today, at 8 52, was not a sale!

Oh well, looks like I tempted fate there. Hopefully that is the end of the pesky seller! Just looking forward to onwards and upwards. This has been a real Warren Buffer investment for me but patience is a virtue!

Thanks Assagai for that link and I agree it's all about potential from here and therefore much more about PEG than current PE.

I also noticed that the recent 50k and 100k sales (except one 100k sale that went through yesterday at 16:31:50 at quoted bid price) were at a premium - so the MMs are currently happy to take them.

A reminder from the recent RNS dated 21 Feb 2017 for anyone looking in here and which fits in with the 'PEG story' above :-

'It was decided to accelerate development of a compact version of our detector panel, which has been designated Threatscan(R) LS3. A prototype has been designed and manufactured and the new product will be launched at the Milipol security exhibition in Singapore in April 2017 and demonstrations are being scheduled. The LS3 makes the superior imaging performance of the successful Threatscan(R) LS1 system available in a small format detector that can be deployed in a back-pack by mobile Explosives Ordnance Disposal (EOD) teams.

The Precision Linescan Detector (PLD), which is being developed with grant support and incorporates new technology from IBEX Innovations, is coming to the end of the development phase. Software integration is in progress and a second prototype is being built. This product is expected to launch in Mid-2017.'

Let's hope all is going to plan as the company moves into a new phase of development and customer offerings.

We seem to have a fairly regular seller over the last couple of weeks. what's good to see is that it hasn't knocked the price and they are getting a premium over the bid. I suppose everyone has their time to sell for whatever reason...
Doubt if they have read this tho.

Nearly all buys this morning, quietly moving up.

Patience required for substantive returns over time imho
