Imagelinx Share Discussion Threads

Brought in first thing.

I was reading all the rns this morning and came across ili trading statement, you dont often find one this bullish. Imagelink are a company I hadn't been following, so will do a bit of research this morning.

Looking good....



If trading continues at our forecast levels for the fourth, traditionally weaker quarter, the Company expects it will exceed the published market forecast for pre-tax profits for 2009 and by a significant margin.

cheers

At the beginning of the year, when all was doom and gloom, I backed the Linx to go belly up in PP share comp (spectacularly wrong from that level!). I am told they have won a fair bit more business from an existing client, so CR, you may be right regarding Alistair's comment.

cheers

CR: may I ask: how long do you usually hold for?

[cockneyrebel] 02/9/2009 14:46

I'm still holding - don't care who's selling.

oh oh - the pump and dumpers are getting out!

Bought these yesterday.

Dead thread here nearly - always a good sign.

Not a mention of the CEO buying or the 1m buy yesterday - also no mention of this in the result:

"Alistair Rae, Chief Executive said "The second half of the year has commenced
strongly and while our business has little short term visibility, nonetheless
the activity remains high for the third quarter and we believe shareholders will
be pleased with the outcome for the full year."

I've never read anything like that in a set of results before - very forward promising in which case it sounds like they expect to deliver results that please even the most discerning. You need to be confident to put lines like that in your results imo.

really impressive results - well worth my purchases under 1p a few months ago! Probably high enough for now, though on a prospective P/E of around 8, I guess, allowing for an even better 2nd half. Happy to hold, although may come back a bit from these levels.

Watch this go today

[latifs100] 29/7/2009 11:08

any ideas on cash and debt levels.. thanks

[mountain man] 12/5/2009 15:04

Have held these for over a year - good to see them performing at last. The future looks good - purchase last year was very astute and the pension issue was so important. Patience is being rewarded as ever.

[monis] 12/5/2009 12:50

Lots of new contracts by the look of things.

[callumross] 12/5/2009 12:25

Hooray - not just speaking to myself on this thread anymore! Pension deficit wiped out by the Pension Regulator last year was completely ignored by the market despite being worth £6m to the company!. Trading progress throughout the last two years completely ignored by market. Maybe now people will begin to waken up to the potential here. They bought a platings business from the administrators last year that actually made more profit than the total purchase cost in it's first year!

[monis] 12/5/2009 12:19

now reports of more director buys...

[monis] 12/5/2009 11:28

Can't buy on line. Business seems to be going very well.

[callumross] 19/3/2009 16:11

Annual results will be published next Tuesday, 24th March.

[callumross] 10/3/2009 16:16

expect impressive results to be announced in next few days.

[callumross] 29/1/2009 12:38

yes - happy to hold - the exchange rate benefit is an added bonus.

[clearsoup] 20/1/2009 17:46

Trading statement 12/1/09 indicates sustainable profitability from quality client base achievable.

[callumross] 03/9/2008 16:15

sharp swing round to operating profit taking the exceptional pension gain out of the equation.

"Imagelinx is beginning to show the first signs of profitability ... we
anticipate to see sustainable profitability in 12 months time. With 12 to 15
quality clients, Imagelinx has the capacity to deliver on its potential," says
Seymour Pierce analyst Amit Thakar in a note.

[callumross] 06/8/2008 11:31

yes, good news, charmer - let's hope the interims in September shows impovements at the operating level, too - at least EBITDA positive, anyway, if not PBT

RNS Number : 7259A
Imagelinx PLC
06 August 2008



IMAGELINX PLC

('Imagelinx' or the 'Company')




Statement re: LTG Gateshead Pension scheme




Imagelinx announces that, following detailed negotiations, Imagelinx has obtained the support of the Pension Protection Fund ('PPF'), and has been granted clearance by the Pensions Regulator to place its dormant subsidiary LTG Gateshead Ltd, ('LTGG') into a Creditors Voluntary Arrangement ('CVA').




At 31st December 2007, LTGG's pension scheme had assets of £14.1m and liabilities of £19.2m, giving rise to a deficit of £5.1m which was accrued on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As noted in the annual report of 10th March 2008, Imagelinx had received advice that the Imagelinx group was not contractually liable for this pension scheme deficit. However, given the regulatory position, the group decided to commence discussions with the Pensions Regulator and the PPF.




As a consequence of this arrangement, the results of Imagelinx plc for the year to 31st December 2008, will record an exceptional gain of £4.7m, before expenses (being the £5.1m pension deficit less a final contribution to the Scheme of £400,000), in the Income Statement for the group and an increase in net assets of the same amount.




This agreement is a further step forward in the reconstruction of the group's balance sheet over the last two and a half years. In December 2005, the Balance Sheet showed a deficit of approximately £5.3m and at 31st December 2007, a surplus of £2.1m.. Had this transaction taken place as at 31st December 2007, shareholders' funds would have stood at approximately £6.7m at that date which amounts to approximately 2.3p per share.




It is intended that the interim results for the first six months to 30th June 2008, will be released in early September and the Directors are confident they will show an improved performance compared to the first half of 2007.
