Invu Share Discussion Threads

I think you're right johnv - MMs doing a little tree-shaking ...

Plus ...

I think it may be something to do with NVUK needing to remain coupled to NVU.

At the end of last week there were a few sellers OF NVU, with the MMs giving just 20p on a couple of trades (when NVU was trading at 25/28 just a couple of days earlier).

Whilst this was going on with NVU, NVUK remained comparatively steady.

Now today NVU was back up 9% to 22/24, whilst NVUK was unchanged.

trading update last year was 12th feb. I think the price drifting due to a few sellers. maybe mms trying to shake some of us out.

Why the drop? Only 15,000 shares traded!

[tradx666] 04/12/2006 11:04

Well onwards and upwards, clearly things are well on track here...

Next step 40p within sight now?

regards to all,

ffs - that's the second time I've done that. I did a search alright and it came up as 'no discussions found'. Strange ?!?!

[domestos] 04/12/2006 10:30

Liarspoker, there's already a thread running for NVUK:

[liarspoker] 01/12/2006 10:47

Helps if I use the right symbol. LOL.

[johnv] 02/11/2006 10:51

Just looking in here, anybody know how things are going with sales to sage punters.

Domestos > re: #87.

Check out the link below. There's a steady stream of Joanne's articles up to 6 September – then nothing. So I reckon you must be right about her being on holiday.

'Guess we'll now have to wait until next results for an update from her - unless Invu announce more deals/news in the meantime .......

Invu, the document management software developer, has come into view after signing a distribution agreement with Sage. Its shares trade at less than 20 times projected earnings, which is a discount to other focused software plays. Should the Sage partnership pay off, profits ought to gain traction, making Invu shares a good bet at this level. Buy says the Independent.

GCI has a HOLD rec on NVU following their BUY rec of the 15 May 2006 @27.5p.

Interesting point kingsize. I wonder if they'd generated more sales – they'd have turned that into even more options! Hmmmm ...

I must say, I'm a but peeved with Citywire's Max Hotopf worrying about Microsoft coming up with their own document management software. You could say that about any piece of software that's not Microsoft.

If Microsoft bought out something that gave Google a run for their money, would people people ditch Google for Microsoft? I don't think so somehow!

And who gives a toss about Germany & France when they've got South-East Asia!

That "Citywire Verdict" was unnecessarily negative IMHO.

Bring back Joanne Wallen whose research is thorough. She's been following Invu ever since the company floated, so obviously knows it much beter than this Hotopf guy. (I've not seen Joanne lately, so maybe she's on holiday.) Her Citywire report of just 4 weeks ago (21 August) was nothing but out & out bullish!




And Citywire's Cliff Feltham was just as bullish on 25 July 2006:

Interesting, the difference between a 3k loss and a 60k profit last time almost exactly equals the share option cost. How's that for a coincidence!

[domestos] 14/9/2006 10:51

It's been interesting watching the MMs "manipulate" NVU upwards over the past few weeks - on virtually no trades!

Whilst NVUK has risen less than NVU, the prices for NVU and NVUK are now the closest I can ever recall seeing them.

Perhaps at long last they're going to do something about sorting out the complicated share structure ..... ?

[tradx666] 14/9/2006 09:55

Moogles,

Shhhh..! :-)

One week until interims...nice to see a steady climb in the share price (touch wood).

Moggie,

nice, very nice indeed. Let's hope this gets it a wider following here now than just us merry few!

Bludax,

You took the words right out of my mouth! I still hate complicated share structures in small businesses, it's off-putting and unnecessary IMHO, it's served it's purpose and should now be cleaned up.

I did have one interesting thought, the rate at which sage are acquiring business abroad could easily open bigger markets, and perhaps might get sage wondering why they should buy the business and use the sage 'brand' to expand it's core markets?

I would except a £1 take-away! LOL!!

regards

[bludax] 21/8/2006 12:07

My post no.30 implying £1.50 by Sept.2007 may have been a bit optimistic, but if this latest deal bears fruit it is not impossible. Short term much will depend on the feedback from this deal. Given the close connection between the directors of the two companies the incentive for the Sage sales teams to sell the Invu packages must be high, so I'll take an unscientific guess and say 40p by 31.01.07, the company year-end.

The sooner the share structure is rationalised into one type of equity the more readily the shares will be traded, (and hopefully that will mean purchased rather than sold!).
