Hi scotty, yes i did thanks. Though i wouldnt be surprised if Mr Webb wasnt an offloader of a few. His fund is top heavy in mira. The alternative is one of the Spaniards, although not Barings.

It's easy to misread the trades etc, but the shareprice (and the spread) doesnt lie.

scotty1 13 Nov'13 - 09:25 - 130 of 228 0 0(premium)

ram "but the shareprice (and the spread) doesnt lie."

We'll have to agree to disagree on that one.

A good Smart Card play,but as you say very illiquid. In fact at 32.50p no real movement for sometime.

[maywillow] 01/11/2002 14:52

Rambutan2,

i have had a look,and must say that as a Smart Card play,IGP seems very interesting.

I still feel i don`t know the company as yet so won`t make too many comments.

For me, this company has a very small capital value and therefore shares are very illiquid.

i would therefore prefer to wait and watch.

The companys that i like in order of preference are Schlumberger,Activcard and IDD. Oberthur and Gemplus have to win back their spurs as far as i am concerned.

Also,these days my propensity to risk has somewhat diminished.

33.50p for me is expensive at this stage in its cycle.

all imho, but no doubt i will be proved wrong.

There must be someone out there who I can interest in this potentialy world-beating company!

Here's a good summing up courtesy of citywire to get this thread going.

16:24, Thur 23 May 2002
Intercede makes a smart move
As expected, Intercede saw turnover fall and losses widen last year but all in the quest to transform itself into an international provider of smart card management software with very interesting potential, writes Joanne Wallen.
Intercede (IGP) has turned itself from a company that did project-based systems integration work to a software company with a software product, edefice. Edefice enables companies or organisations to manage the issuance and maintenance of smart cards or tokens for security and access.
As Citywire reported in December, the company expected to see turnover fall temporarily as it focused its sales efforts of building key channel partners to sell its software.
The company warned again in February that second half performance would be roughly in line with first half.
For the full year to March, turnover was £1.2 million, down from £2 million last time, and pre-tax losses rose to £2.2 million from £1.1 million.
Finance director Andrew Walker told Citywire: 'Our sales efforts have been focused on building our international channels, instead of on winning UK-based project work.'
Those efforts resulted in deals with French smart card manufacturer Oberthur, US smart card applications provider ActivCard and Datakey, a US-based security and access specialist. These partners will embed edefice into their own products, and sell it as their own. Intercede will get a fee per smart card issued by their end customers.
The deals have brought Intercede advance licence commitments of nearly $2 million, of which is has already received $800,000. However, the company expects with such deals for it to take at least nine months between signing the partner and revenues coming through. Walker said some revenues from these deals should start coming through this year, but the second half is certainly likely to be better than the first.
Intercede is also looking for straight reseller partners, which will sell the software on a standalone basis rather than embed it into other products. These sales should have shorter lead times.
The company has already sold its product to a major UK government department, which will deploy edefice to provide enhanced security for employees accessing its networks. It also has a long-term relationship with Fujitsu, formerly ICL, a big supplier of IT systems to government.
The software will handle the new breed of security cards using fingerprint or iris recognition technology, as well as digital certificates, passwords or other security devices.
Intercede claims industry analysts expect that within the next three to five years, the majority of people will carry at least one form of electronic identity, probably in the form of a smart card, be that a corporate identity card in New York, health records in France, a national citizen's ID card in Malaysia, a driving licence in India or a bank debit card in the UK.
Walker said this is a new and emerging market, and by getting its software out around the world through partners, Intercede is hoping it will become a de facto industry standard.
The company had £1.8 million cash at the end of March, having raised a total of £5.1 million since February 1999. The cash in hand includes £982,000 of new funding raised as a convertible five-year loan in December. An existing convertible loan for £450,000 was also extended for a further five years.
Shares fell 2p to 42.5p, valuing the business at just £6.9 million.

Citywire Verdict:

Intercede seems to be being punished for taking time out to transform its business. It looks as though there could be a very large, international market for edefice in security and access alone, and that is before the company starts marketing it for other applications such as driving licences and consumer applications.
Revised broker forecasts are not yet out, but it doesn't really look like there is much of the new potential priced into the shares. This is still a risky unknown quantity, but could be interesting. Keep a close watch for progress.


A day later there hasn't yet been any trades and the price is still at this silly level. Remember, this isn't a pie in the sky company, in the last year it's signed agreements and got money off leading US and European cos. It's gone through the development stage and its quite possible
that by the end of this year could be in a leading position in its field, an area which is expected to grow at a great rate. Yes, perhaps folk are worried about the funding, but company hasn't previously had any trouble in raising cash when needed and in any case if all goes according to plan this won't be an issue.
Surprise surprise, their website is www.intercede.com
Have a look for yourselves!

Below are couple of recent, relevant announcements.

I smell a rat here. Big sell off today. Announcement due?

No position held.

[sanjuro] 30/5/2001 00:34

Pegasis do you own stock in IGP?

[kmacgre] 29/5/2001 11:14

I have IGP stock and at worst it is a hold for the next 60-90 days. Blm use IGP software and support. A casual glance at the customer list so far indicates certain large financials are requiring IGP software and expertise. There are no guarantees but with past 6 month sales growth looking positive and the size of the market slot so large, IGP desrves a closer look. Their cash position indicates that either sales are about to explode and generate cash, or they will require funding. I believe both will be the case. Even so the amounts required are not large and the niche slot they target is wide open. All IMHO with much salt pinches

[pegasis] 28/5/2001 01:21

PERHAPS YOU WOULD LIKE TO ENLIGHTEN US ALL ON WHAT YOU THINK THEY DO , SINCE YOU SEEM TO HAVE READ EVERYTHING FROM A TIPSHEET, AND WHY YOU THINK THIS STOCK WILL RISE 1000% IN 3 YEARS, OF WHICH YOU SEEM PRETTY CERTAIN.
WHY WOULD A TIDDLER LIKE THIS DESERVE SUCH A HIGH MARKET CAPITAL WHEN YOU HAVE THE LIKES OF BALTIMORE WHO COULD PRODUCE THE SAME SOFTWARE AND OFFER IT FOR A LOWER PRICE SQUEEZING IGP OUT OF THE MARKET.

[i rely on research] 27/5/2001 02:07

pegasis,

do you even know what intercede does? come back to me when you have figured that out.

IROR

[pegasis] 26/5/2001 20:49

I WONDER WHICH RAMPING TIPSHEET YOU GOT THIS INFO FROM?

GET REAL...IN TIMES OF UNCERTAIN TECH STOCKS CAN YOU REALLY BELIEVE THIS WILL RISE 330% IN ONE YEAR...GET REAL
THEY DONT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO LAST THE YEAR OUT, SO WILL EITHER HAVE TO BORROW MORE OR GO TO THE MARKET FOR MORE
DO YOU THINK MANY PEOPLE WOULD BE WILLING TO SHELL OUT MORE MONEY FOR A STOCK THATS RISEN OVER 300%...I DONT THINK SO

TAKE A STEP BACK FROM THE HYPE AND LOOK AT THE COMPANY IN THE COLD LIGHT OF DAY

ITS VERY WELL FOR YOU TO BE HYPING THE STOCK UP....YOU DONT EVEN OWN ANY SHARES, SO YOUVE GOT NOTHING TO LOOSE, BUT PEOPLE WHO ARE THINKING OF BUYING MAY BELIEVE YOUR HYPE AND GET SUCKERED IN AT THE TOP.
JUST REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED A YEAR AGO!

[sanjuro] 23/5/2001 14:57

Hey thanks for the reply.
I agree with your comments. If you are looking long term these shares are aserious earner. Everybody jumped in to the internet and are now looking at the security issue. When there is another big virus scare or hacking incident this business is going to reap the rewards.

I reckon serious increase by September 2001

cheers

[kmacgre] 23/5/2001 11:40

Yeh, I'm interested in IGP. In fact bought some. Results OK. Hope they take the short route to profit as cash limited. Market sector wide open. Security is not an optional extra - it comes first with the banks or any other databank with confidential info. The share price may sit for a while after the sharp rise, and may fall back a tad. I see £1.00 within a couple of weeks and this as resitance level. Good fishing.

[sanjuro] 23/5/2001 11:24

Is anybody interested in this share? Nobody seems to want to talk about it

[sanjuro] 23/5/2001 00:24

Any views on the published results??

[sanjuro] 21/5/2001 16:27

A 2 pence drop one day befor the results are issued. Sounds like people are gearing up for news.

[i rely on research] 04/5/2001 11:34

This is one to get into now if you haven't already. be prepared for some good results in may.

BUY now at 90 pence.

Target one year = 200pence
Target 3 year 600pence

You have been told

I do not hold the stock in question.

Remember this one

[sanjuro] 30/4/2001 11:55
