Thank you for your thoughts spacep. I hope we achieve the £1.50 mid year as I was originally told. Whatsay you?

[spaceparallax] 24/5/2006 08:45

Jwe,

I'm sure that you're already aware of my agreement on that.

Magn,

Hope this provides a confidence boost for you - should see some recovery in share price from here.

[jwe] 24/5/2006 08:01

Good positive forward looking statement ,they look oversold at this level.

[spaceparallax] 18/5/2006 12:19

Magn,

The problem is Market-wide; over the last few days, many AIM shares have been hit significantly harder than this e.g. miners down upto a third. If you're in just sit tight and things will recover - patience is always the watchword, together with ensuring that your investments have either very solid fundamentals (as here) or very exciting, substantial prospects that balance the risk.

[magnesium4] 18/5/2006 09:10

What is happening with this share ? why the big drop?

[spaceparallax] 16/5/2006 19:06

A sound performance during a turbulent few days.

[spaceparallax] 11/5/2006 15:33

No doubt saintly observations. BTW, how's that old Volvo?

I suspect that the large sells over the previous weeks were actually delayed sells, so that the fall in share price happened before the trade, having already taken place, became apparent and thus no movement on the day of it appearing .

[spaceparallax] 11/5/2006 09:40

Recent history shows that the price has indeed been to 80p; however, look at the news since then - it's all been very solid and been supported by rapidly improving fundamentals and good news on the MS partnering front.

Orange,

let's hope the defib probes are due to be applied to shock the Market back into life!

Magn,

definitely in for the long term - 18 months so far, accumulating on lows and top-slicing on the highs.

[pbworth] 11/5/2006 09:15

Im not a holder but can see price at 80p

[orange1] 11/5/2006 09:13

The chart is exhibiting the famous heart monitor formation which in itself is bullish as it shows that the patient is alive with a regular pulse.

[magnesium4] 11/5/2006 08:49

Thank you spaceparallax you are obviously in for the long term then?

[spaceparallax] 10/5/2006 17:33

It is tricky to figure out what's happening at times like this - the drop on a few hundred might suggest MMs attempting to rattle a few panic sells. I honestly don't know, but will continue to sit tight and perhaps accumulate if we hit 90p.

[magnesium4] 10/5/2006 17:13

Has anyone an understanding of what is going on with this company? Half a million shares traded... No Movement... a million the week before again no movement... A few hundred a day and the price drops almost daily.. What can we understand from this.. What is the future of the company ..I thought and in fact was told it was an excellent investment???

[allstar4eva] 05/5/2006 19:03

Happened a few weeks ago as well - yes something is surely going on...

[spaceparallax] 05/5/2006 14:39

Over 500K shares Sold today, mainly in two blocks - trade price 95p each and yet no movement whatsoever by the share price Methinks something is afoot: certainly very odd to see such large Sells at such a high price and for there to be no consequent fall in share price It seems unlikely that the MMs are playing games because of the high price paid; therefore, I would suspect that a large Buyer lurks with perhaps a very big order to be filled @ a price somewhere approaching £1.

[magnesium4] 26/4/2006 16:34

Thank you, I appreciate the time and trouble you have gone to in order to respond

[spaceparallax] 26/4/2006 13:55

Magnesium,

You pose a tricky question. Historically, the chart has been up and down for the last few years; not surprisingly, up following good TS or news and drifting down in the absence of news.

However, the Company circumstances have changed very signficantly over the last couple of years i.e. the emphasis of the business has shifted to distinctly different and more successful markets. More recent RNSs have presented positive news to say the least and as a result I would expect the downward drift to be very limited.

KBT have received good support from financial media in recent weeks and months and consequently I believe that the current share price is an aberation soon to be corrected. Certainly to my knowledge all the fundamentals are very sound and the most recent RNS in early April was very positive looking forward and conversely, KBT would have been duty bound to notify us of any significant change (I am aware of none). Consequently, I would expect a very significant correction, potentially towards 150p, when a sufficiently eye catching RNS concerning perhaps new contracts or acquisition or MS interface can be made. That said, I view the current situation as a good oppo to top-up.

[magnesium4] 26/4/2006 11:08

Anybody know exactly what is going on with this share.. Good news followed by a share price drop etc ... when can we expect a substantial rise please? any one have any idea?

[glasshalfull] 24/4/2006 11:56

Hi

Well KBT's markets are still very buoyant as reflected in Touchstones "ahead" trading statement earlier this morning.



I'm holding both and feel that they will become targets for a larger player in due course.
Seems to be the companies with >£50m market caps that can enjoy a PER rating around the 15 mark.

GHF

Surprised at the drift - in previous years, when the Business structure was being reworked and the Company fortunes were being turned around, drift was understandable between good news; however, recent results were good and the outlook is very positive, hence this should be an attractive investment, with a very competitive PE.

[spaceparallax] 12/4/2006 11:58

Good supporting news yesterday - should lend confidence to any potential investors in the wings.

[allstar4eva] 11/4/2006 16:30

I believe it's 10 at around this price level...

[jwe] 11/4/2006 08:01

Yes good announcement,anybody got a prospective p/e for 2006?

[orange1] 11/4/2006 07:19

2 new contracts and qualified sales programme 25% ahead of last year:
