Posted at 23/5/2009 11:32 by klever IMX has been bumping along the bottom and almost going under for years now, they turn over about 5M but have loans of almost 10M. The interest they pay on those loans is about 2M a year but they only manage to make a gross profit of 1M to 1.5M a year so they end up borrowing more to make up the shortfall, which is why they now owe 10M. For investors this has been a poor bet and a big gamble for at least the last 3 or 4 years - even if they somehow manage to make 2M gross profit a year to pay the interest they would only stand still, not pay off the loans. And in the current climate the loans must be drying up.Despite this, the CEO and others seem willing to put up 1M of their own cash (I hope its not more debt!) to buy the business, including its 10M of loan debts. This either means that there is a big turnaround deal in prospect - which is why the plc has put the paybackclause in - or else these guys just don't know when to say 'I give up'. Either way, I think that my few shares are a lot better off in the plc than in the debt ridden business being sold off. I will be interested to see who the new plc board will be and what they might do to grow our 1M. |

Posted at 09/9/2005 16:51 by plainman Cheading,I am not as experienced an investor as you are. I don't read the markets, I invest in what I know. Didn't panic...upto that I had given them the use of my money for 3 years and I wasn't happy that they could be trusted with it any longer. I am sure anyone holding more than a few shares in IMX is biased in favour of seeing the price rise. But if you are going to talk it up then lets base it on the facts available - which surely at the moment make it difficult to justify talking it up. Have sat round the table with IMX mgt but wouldn't agree with the terms you use to describe them - I would use smart, crafty, survivors. Early on I thought this was a good thing....but as things get tougher I was not sure these were the qualities I liked about someone using my money. So I concluded that if this ship sinks, all I could expect from them is a wave as they leave on the lifeboats. cheers plainman |
Posted at 07/3/2005 10:52 by explorer88 Thought i'd drop by to see how you're doing ... doesn't look too good. Management still receiving large salaries, few sales (£50,000 a year for Irish contract - wow! - not much more from Trillium), debts increasing, more capital raising to ensure an unqualified auditors report and not even giving you guys a chance to take part through a rights issue (doesn't appear that management have existing investors interests at heart).There is much talk of a "planning blight" - this is absolute nonsense - the blight ended some time ago. NPfIT is spending huge amounts of money on IT - it just isn't IMS Maxims' advanced clinical applications! "Don't touch IMS Maxims with a barge pole" was the comment of my colleague who works as a consultant to NPfIT, IA and others connected to NHS. I still agree with this comment... Good luck if you're still holding. |
Posted at 06/3/2005 20:31 by maysun Red-fred,It will be even worse if they release the share dilution news before the share price rose, share price could be down below 1p. The company is in a dire position, it will not improve until they sell enough products to cover its outrageous cash burn. Addition fund will only buy them a bit more time, I do hope they will suceed for decent investors like Cheading, but judging them on past record, who will be surprised that management will once again fail to deliver as they have often promised? Ask them this question if you phone them: Will the senior managers prepare to take a 50% pay cut and get their salary cut paid in shares? They got you all in this terrible state and should take drastic measure to mend thier poor performance......... |
Posted at 14/2/2005 19:41 by maysun Cheading,Unless they reduce its cash burn, I shall not buy a single shares, there are better opporutnities elasewhere, like ult for example. We have to agree to disagree on this one. Too risky for me, wish you luck though since you are such a nice guy, never come across a more loyal and honest investor like you....LOL!!! |
Posted at 19/1/2005 17:23 by explorer88 KK - I ask again ... who did you speak to? what did they say?(P.S. Thank you for their telephone number, but I have already been in touch with both BE and SC recently and, obviously, they were not able to disclose market sensitive information. In warning investors that IMX is likely to be placed in receivership I'm relying on financial information in the public domain and third party sources as previously outlined) |
Posted at 26/8/2004 16:20 by el cuerpo explorer88 - 18 Aug'04 - 22:38 - 89 of 90I believe that there is now an 80-90% chance that the shares will be suspended (probably early next year). If I was an investor in IMS I would bail out now before the plane crashes. Looks like many are taking that advice. |
Posted at 19/6/2004 13:25 by cheading AbubrynYes, confident, large bet for me with patient money, pension pot. I was the only investor at last years AGM, perhaps not too many others are aware yet of how key IMS will be to NHS IT revamp. Not sold a single share, in fact may buy more. Buffett never sells when price falls, not that I'm in his league !" cheers cheading. |
Posted at 13/5/2004 00:01 by cheading AbubrynYour shout. I was the only investor at AGM last December, so I'm biased. Up 50% from lows, so I'm happy to stay aboard. Still think it's cheap and with prudent, honest management. Don't know the shares you mention so can't comment. cheers cheading. |
