is there a co info website?

[recruiter] 05/5/2006 15:04

wow, 67/70 with very large buys going through @ 70p.
We are going up next week in my opinion.

[elmfield] 04/5/2006 14:16

You may both join the party, my av is nearer 70p than 60 so that is sad but I will add if this drops much more, closed period starts on thwe 5th may so no more director buys for a while, I would be surprised not to be over 70p at results time, and who knows what rabbit might jump out before then, bit of press maybe?

[recruiter] 04/5/2006 10:14

Hi all, I like the look of these, the CEO buying in quantity is a great sign of confidence, just purchased a very small quantity to start to see what would happen to price (if anything), will buy more later.
Looks like a great stock.
6.5p eps (estimate) huge growth & low pe.......nice !!!!

[cambium] 04/5/2006 09:39

Can I join your party Elmfield.

[elmfield] 02/5/2006 13:47

Shake rattle and down!
Wonder if the boss wants more?

[elmfield] 28/4/2006 15:34

It is like getting blood out of a stone buying these when a director is at it as well!

edit,
But the MMS must have felt sorry for me so let me have a nice wad to finish the day with, only a penny more than the last ones bought by the director, now that was lucky but truth is I think no body has found this gem!

[elmfield] 28/4/2006 08:47

bubloo, hope you are in these?

[elmfield] 28/4/2006 07:39

And busy again with another 40k at 70p,
No one Knows about this little secret, just wait because when word gets out...
Do some research folks.

[elmfield] 26/4/2006 22:55

("MEM" or "the Group")

Trading update


MEM, an established media company, engaged in television production and DVD
distribution, is today updating the market on the Group's current trading. The
directors of MEM ("Directors") expect to announce the Company's preliminary
results for the year ended 31 March 2006 on or around 6 July 2006.



The Board is pleased to announce that during the year the Company has continued
to show solid growth in revenues and results for the year to 31 March 2006 are
expected to be in line with market expectations. The new year has started well
and the Directors report that the trading outlook is positive.



Since the Group's flotation in 2001, MEM has acquired two distinct divisions, a
DVD distribution business and the UK's largest fully equipped TV studio. It has
also created a TV production business in 2004, providing MEM with a
well-diversified offering of products and services.





The Directors are providing the following divisional update:



DD Home Entertainment



DD Home Entertainment ("DDHE"), which licenses, produces and publishes DVDs has
performed well during the year to 31 March 2006 experiencing strong revenue
growth and a growing database of customers.



During the year, DDHE secured the following notable, exclusive contracts:



* a five year licensing deal with ITV. This key contract entitles DDHE
to manufacture and distribute DVDs via the direct marketing, on an exclusive
basis, of the majority of existing and future programmes owned or controlled by
ITV during the term;



* extension of its active licensing relationship with the BBC and
Fremantle; and



* DVD distribution rights to the "Ashes" cricket series for 2005 and
2006.



Scarlet TV



MEM's TV programme production division, now reorganised under the "Scarlet TV"
brand, was the fastest growing division in the Group during the year. It has
achieved notable success since its inception in November 2004, securing 18
commissions including Petrolheads, an audience based motoring entertainment
panel quiz show, for BBC 2. Its debut in February 2006 achieved excellent
ratings, being second only to ITV in its timeslot, out-rating BBC1, C4 and C5
and peaking at 5 million viewers, a 14.3% audience share.



A number of new commissions are being discussed, which give the Directors
confidence on Scarlet TV's outlook.





Fountain Studios



Trading at Fountain Studios in the year to 31 March 2006 has been in-line with
the prior year with most production company clients returning with further
bookings. The Directors are pleased to report that Fountain Studios has the
strongest order book since the facility was purchased by MEM in 2002 with
healthy booking indications for the remainder of 2006, including returning
series.





Shareholder meetings



The Directors will be meeting with a number of institutional shareholders over
the course of this week in order to update them on the Group's progress prior to
close period commencing on 6 May 2006.

Director still buying, this is looking better and better Bub?

[elmfield] 26/4/2006 14:38

This will go off with a bang when word gets out, just a wee write up not a big one as I doubt the mms could handle it!
Lot of talk on the radio today about the ashes dvd being the highest selling Dvd 'EVER'!?

[elmfield] 26/4/2006 14:01

Some sells are in fact buys, trust me

[elmfield] 26/4/2006 11:38

These are impossible to buy.

[elmfield] 25/4/2006 16:11

Put an order in today early, wonder what I will get.

[the vogon] 25/4/2006 10:16

Thanks Simon

[elmfield] 25/4/2006 09:53

I am going to take a stake.

[simon14] 25/4/2006 09:51

Vogon, Report may be difficult to obtain because as yet hasnt been posted on Brokers site as access for all, It is 24 pages of very thourough analysis with particular emphesis on equity value per share( a sum of the parts valuation)which is estimated at 89p.(and a share price target of 90p post a worthy rerating).

[elmfield] 24/4/2006 18:11

Dear Bubloo,
HMMM, It has been a bit of a ride for shareholders here but with any luck things may be getting better, the one or two that topped up last few days have done well, would I buy tomorrow? Not sure we need to do more research but it has to be woreth a good look at, keep in touch. £5.4 mcap is nothing!

[the vogon] 24/4/2006 14:19

Hi Simon

Is the report available online?
If not could you possible post the salient points?

Thanks

The Vogon

[lbo] 24/4/2006 13:14

The weakness could have been due to the fact that Investinmedia may get a bid from Endemol due to the sale of Celador and he may sell its stake in MME if he takes them private

[simon14] 24/4/2006 13:10

Ive just finished reading Daniel Stewart`s(MME`S new broker) 24 page report on MME this weekend and had decided to invest this morning...MY LUCK!!
