24/3/2004 21:29 | Schlumberger to Spin Off Axalto as Smart Card Market Recovers 24 March 2004 Clare Hirst An independent Axalto will benefit from a booming smart card market, and will enable Schlumberger to refocus on its core business. Analyst Comments On March 2004, Schlumberger announced plans for an initial public offering (IPO) for its smart card subsidiary, Axalto, in a move that will enable the oilfield services provider to refocus on its core business. The IPO comes just as the market is recovering strongly, following a disastrous period that began in 2001, when demand for mobile handset SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) cards slumped. There is now strong demand for SIMs from China, and increased demand from the financial sector as deadlines approach for smart card payment | ![]() grupo guitarlumber | |

24/3/2004 09:43 | Bit lonely talking with myself - who cares. Year end March 31, although a long wait until we get the actual figures. My best guess is conservative with 2H sales 980K-1M, and 2H losses cut to 160K from last years 554K. This should clearly put IGP in profit throughout 2004/5. It will then be fascinating to see if anyone picks up a few shares as the long term outlook is improving fairly quickly. Regards to anyone who may be out there. Car 54 et al. | ![]() kmacgre | |

17/2/2004 14:04 | kmacgre, should work. Extract only: "Are smart cards, SIM cards ready to take off? 16 February, 2004 by Liam Lahey Smart cards are one allegedly great idea that hasn't really taken off yet in North America. That could be about to change, with opportunities increasing for the smart and SIM (subscriber identification module) card markets within the North American marketplace. Aaron McPherson, a research manager for Framingham, Mass.-based Financial Insights (a division of IDC Corp.), said smart cards had yet to make a serious impact in the American market due to current telecommunications infrastructure, which makes it relatively cheap for merchants to simply dial up and get a real time check on a credit card.

04/2/2004 19:20 | yes, that makes sense, unless the mms had some long lost ones in the deep freezer. best scenerio would be one of the long-term big holders letting another institution in. | ![]() rambutan2 | |
04/2/2004 19:00 | I reckon a deal at a pre-arranged price with a buy at 25p and a sell at 24.5p with the 0.5p paying the commission. If they were both buys I see no way that would be unchanged on the day. Question is - will that push us up another 1p or more at the open? Interesting. G. | ![]() garth | |

22/1/2004 10:29 | Thanks Maywillow, interesting read. Just a reminder from the interims: "Richard Parris, Chairman & Chief Executive Andrew Walker, Finance Director Chairman's Statement Results The Group has produced a solid operating result in the first half of this year, which supports our plans for the full year. During the period the management team focused on delivering an improved performance across all aspects of our business. I am pleased to report that for the fifth consecutive half year period we have made excellent progress towards sustainable profitable operations through the development and resale of our own software products. Whilst it is disappointing that delays in contract awards have resulted in sales remaining flat compared to the same period last year, the proportion of sales attributable to edefice has increased from 52% to 62%. It is also encouraging that the number of requests for tender, along with general pre-sales activities, are at an all time high. This is a very strong indicator of future sales growth and increasing opportunity for the Group." G. | ![]() garth |
