Can't find this rns on investegate or iii. Not so sure theres been a trading statement at all today now and am wondering if its just advfn playing up?

[eric76] 11/1/2010 16:42

Oops I missed it too, too busy panicking about missing it in the first place I guess.
Never mind maybe this was just a practice statement for advfn and they'll issue another one tomorrow which will get flagged.

I hang my head in shame and embarrassment...no eye for small details

[callumross] 11/1/2010 16:25

the company has got this badly wrong IMHO - as they have issued last year's trading statement in error. Doesn't inspire confidence!

RNS Number : 4391L
Imagelinx PLC
12 January 2009



IMAGELINX PLC
("Imagelinx" or the "Company")

Trading Statement

Imagelinx, the global provider of graphic brand management services, is pleased to announce today a major contract award for the
artwork for a major global healthcare brand of an existing customer. Initial estimates are that this activity would lead to annual sales in
the region of $750,000 a year with scope to rise up to $1 million. Work on this account is expected to start early this year.

In addition the Company is pleased to announce further awards of new business made in the final quarter of 2008 from existing customers
and also from a former customer including:
* handling all the artwork and reprographics for the Russian and Eastern European business of its largest printing client;
* the African business of one of its UK clients;
* a former client has awarded Imagelinx their artwork, reprographic and flexo plate-making activities in the UK;
* the award of the artwork for one of the Company's major clients for a part of their hair care businesses in Europe;

These further awards are estimated to provide another �500,000 in annual sales.

Despite the global economic uncertainties, trading across the Imagelinx group in the second half has improved month by month and the
final quarter of the year has ended on a strong note. Therefore the Board is confident of reporting an improved result for the last year
compared to 2007 and expect the group to have been profitable before goodwill and exceptional items, compared to a loss of �800,000 for the
year ended 2007. There will also be an exceptional profit as announced in August 2008 relating to the transfer of the LTGG pension fund
scheme to the Pension Protection Fund.

The group's two acquisitions in the last two years, Tecnolink at the end of 2006 and Brandmark Digital early in 2008, have both
justified the decisions to acquire them and have performed well.

The Board believes that the Company enters 2009 with three particular advantages in its favour to face the uncertain economic climate:
- it has won a wide range of new business mainly from existing clients;
- it has reduced its cost base significantly over the last two years; and
- it is well placed to benefit from the strength of both the dollar and the euro as the majority of its annual revenue is in these
two currencies while the cost base is predominantly sterling based.

Accordingly, in the current economic environment and as experienced by many businesses, the Company has less visibility of the year
ahead, although the Board believes the Company is well placed to cope with 2009.

The Company intends to write to shareholders shortly convening a general meeting at which it is proposed to seek approval from
shareholders to update the articles of association and to reorganise its share capital in order to reduce the nominal value of the ordinary
shares which has been higher than the trading price. The circular to shareholders will also include details of the Company's share option
scheme whereby the Company also intends to issue options to a number of its senior managers.

I missed it too as it wasn't flagged but its there now and it is very upbeat.

Doolittle
Are you sure there is a trading statement today, I can't find one.

[doolittle] 11/1/2010 16:08

V Upbeat trading statement today
Time the wider market woke up to this!

[interceptor2] 08/1/2010 14:12

2 x 100k buys today, hasn't moved the sp, but investors may start to position ahead of the next trading statement.

[eric76] 08/1/2010 14:00

Can't be long til these update again now. 12th of Jan last year, not sure if they'll repeat that date or not but it may be coming close to time to have another nose through their last quarter's newsflow as they had some very bullish trading statements.

[eric76] 21/12/2009 12:21

Can't get an online quote for buying just 5000 shares on this one today yet can sell 25000 at 3.7p straight away, must be getting tightly held?

[eric76] 18/12/2009 08:19

Good to see the buys continue this close to xmas. They had a trading update last Jan if they have one again it could be a decent start to the new year here judging by the positivity of the last few updates.

[eric76] 17/12/2009 15:24

Surprised to see a few buys here today is news expected? only I thought these were a tuckaway til their next numbers.
Very tight bollingers for those that reckon such things as predictors, haven't seen them this tight since tuppence...

I personally think this one will do very well and not necessarily within 5 months. Directors also have a lot of faith in this too...

[ukinvestor220] 22/11/2009 16:35

seriously overlooked this one !!

[interceptor2] 22/10/2009 08:29

Something to think about...........

It's worth looking at the trading statement again, I have only twice this year come across statements that were this bullish (I may have missed some of course)

First was EDD in January which could have been brought easily on the day @ 42p now 141p + 235%

Second was ITL in May, could have brought @ 53p now 117p +110%

You could buy ILI @ 4.7p on Monday, could we see 9.9p within 5 months? or 15.7p within 9 months?

...............................................................................

While it would not be the Company's normal practice to make quarterly trading
statements, trading in the third quarter to the end of September has been very
strong, such that the Imagelinx group's operating profit before goodwill for the third quarter is similar to the operating profit before goodwill for the whole of the first half of 2009.

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.

[callumross] 21/10/2009 12:19

Nice 200k buy at 5p gone through in the last hour.

[interceptor2] 21/10/2009 08:02

Seymour Pierce issued new forecast yesterday of EPS 0.41p for 2009 and EPS 0.46p for 2010.

As I posted I had expected an upgrade to 0.42p to leave room for ILI to beat estimates, and still believe 0.5p is highly probable for full year.

[buh1] 20/10/2009 12:31

Very difficult to deal in this stock, absolutely no liquidity.

[cockneyrebel] 19/10/2009 19:56

This from Hoodless Brennan tonight:

Imagelinx (ILI, 4.25p, £12.28m) Has updated the market following a strong Q3 where the operating profit before good will exceed that reported for the whole of H1 2009. As a result the group expects profits for the year to be significantly ahead of existing market expectations. A move from £0.8m PBT with 0.3p EPS to £1.2m and 0.45p EPS would put the group on a 9.4x prospective PER. BUY to the 12x PER - or the 5.4p level.

[interceptor2] 19/10/2009 12:15

Keep an eye on Directors share purchases, on three occasions after the closed period this year Alistair Rae CEO has purchased 100,000 shares @ 1.25p, 1.75p and 3.00p. Sensible chap.

[interceptor2] 19/10/2009 11:26

I have now done my research here, and I'm happy to hold and add when appropriate. I like the fact that they should now be debt free as forecast at the interims, and they have new bank facilities in place with Lloyds upto £1.0m. Could be some acquisition activity in the future.

Looking at the figures even if the 4th quarter (Traditionally weaker) is slightly less than the 3rd they should make PBIT £1.374m and EPS 0.5p for the full year giving a per of 9 even after todays 28% price increase.

We should see some buy recommadations this weak and a revised broker forecast, I guess to about 0.42p EPS level to give room for company to beat estimates.

[clearsoup] 19/10/2009 08:13

Efficiency driven business model continues to benefit clients and shareholders.

[cockneyrebel] 19/10/2009 08:12

Sorry clearsoup, didn't realise there had been a post here, thought I was on my own.

Yep, still holding - didn't realise there was news here today as Proquote never flagged it - was busy watching FDP. FBDU and YULC today.

Nice statement - these are well undervalued imo.
