Interestingly someone who has the login to their Intabet Twitter profile was still posting, well retweeting betting/sport related tweets up to mid Nov 14.

Yes everyone lost, no one seemed to be man enough to own up and no doubt in the background those who were hurt worst will continue the fight to get the truth out in the end and those responsible to be held to account.

It devastated a lot of good honest people, their families and is a lesson to investors everywhere, invest in things you know and don't listen to fluff even if it comes from well healed suited City types.

Thanks The Analyst for keeping this alive, free speech is a liberty we should all fight to keep. Thanks everyone else who tried and keeps trying to get the true facts out to all. Happy New Year, invest wisely. Do your homework first. Always ask questions.

ShareProphets tip of the week: Buy CA Sperati at a 4.25p offer
By ShareProphets | Sunday 6 July 2014



Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

We spoke to the main man at CA Sperati (SPR) a couple of weeks ago and sense that after months of waiting, the summer could be action packed. This a 156 year old company making buttons and trimmings in a factory in Greenwich London. It recently transferred from the Full list to AIM. The Button business is massively sub scale and not a high growth market – we do not care about buttons.

During the past eight months Jason Drummond and Jonathan Rowland have come on board, a freehold site has been sold and £250,000 raised at 4p. At a 4.25p offer price (the spread is 3.75p– 4.25p) the market cap is c£820,000. We reckon that net cash is c£350,000 to £400,000 there is no debt and Jason Drummond has plans.

Historic results are pretty much irrelevant. The only thing that matters is cash and following the sale of a freehold property and a placing earlier this year net cash is £350,000 to £400,000. Now we come to Drummond and Rowland who own 22% between them. Rowland provides financial clout although Drummond is very wealthy too and he is the key man.

You might associate him with an AIM disaster Media Corp but that was his younger brother in charge. Look back a few more years and you will see that Drummond made stunning returns for shareholders in the dotcom boom. Perhaps more importantly the businesses he established were real business which are still going today, albeit having been sold at the right time.

Drummond and he knows the technology/new media and e-commerce sector well. We know this sector is back in vogue but Drummond is not going to be rushed into a deal. Having said that we know some investors have grown bored waiting for him to act. That is a mistake, we sense that he is now ready to strike and that will transform Sperati.

There are risks: Tech stocks might tank. Drummond might not find a deal or do a bad one. But we have faith in the man. He has an excellent track record and he and Rowland have skin in the game. They are not there just to double their money. We think that the summer months will be exciting ones for Sperati and the shares are a buy at up to 5.5p with an initial target share price of 12p.

There is a note to move for dissolving MDC on the 28th April I think and thus the light will be switched off. What a huge waste and a huge loss to so many investors who never got the facts and those who have really suffered. I hope this thread stays live so that many will learn in future. There's really not sufficient words to describe those involved. Thanks everyone who tried to make a difference over the past 8 years.

The only chance of salvaging something meaningful is if the new investors inject fresh cash into the company without issuing shares or someone is prepared to purchase your shares for 100p. Otherwise prepare for a near 99% wipe out.An investment of £1000 becomes £10.

I had also been pondering which way to vote. After reading recent posts believe it will be a no vote on my certificated shares (small amount of 3k).

Unfortunately, I believe I will have no chance of voting on the 10.5k shares held in nominee account, something that really should be available.

Believe that any shares bought and held in nominee accounts the investor receive any rights and be able to vote. The nominee account companies should not be able to retain rights on shares bought by the investor or vote on the investors behalf if not as the investor wishes.

Alternatively, for PIs that are only able to deal in small Nos. of shares the cost of receiving certificates should be much lower. Don't remember seeing any brokers charging less than £50 recently. £50 -100 or so on say about £200 of shares 25%+

nevik, a new BOD is to be introduced here. Essentially an RTO, new proposed BOD, new fund raise, new proposed asset, new strategy. But yeah, not what MDC investors bought for but what choice is there? Only saving grace is market cap was only £1m odd prior to suspension!

So we get a 1 share for every 1000 in a company that has no market value. The choice is academic at this stage. We either keep MDC and it folds or we gamble on an Oil company which has no means to generate profits for shareholders.
Who exactly are they going to attract as new investors in this company? There are plenty of Leopard Oils out there. Cluff natural is a better bet, at least Algy has a good track record. But Leopard Oil/MDC could not develop a bit of software due to lack knowledge and funds. So why on earth do they think investing in natural resources is within their scope.
Plus I already invest in natural resources, HER, AMER and Boil without an investment company taking a slice or do they actually mean by investing in OIl and gas companies they will be providing funds for exploration?
It costs a lot more money and time getting Oil found, pumped and delivered than it does developing a little bit of software.
So we get to keep either 1000 nothings or trade them in for 1 nothing.
Decisions decisions.

Hmm. This company has been an abject lesson in how to f#@k something up. 8 years ago I invested in the company who did a great job of promising lots and demonstrating value and in the end delivered Leopard whatever. Unbelievable chain of events that beggars belief. Leopard whatever is nothing but a name for a company with nothing of value. What value has been mismanaged and exagerrated, and ultimately lost. It ceased to be of value to me a long time ago, and now I view it as nothing more than a sharp lesson for investors and an illustration of the pitfalls of investing in the AIM market.

This is real shame but I have a couple of questions and I would rather have sensible answers rather than they are crooks etc...as that is just not helpful.

So since November they have raised the following funds:

02/11/12 = £600,000 (excl expenses)
25/02/13 = £200,000 (£86,000 deferred)
26/02/13 = £100,000 (deferred)
27/02/13 = £100,000 (deferred)
05/04/13 = £286,000

So in short they have bolstered the coffers with close to a £1m yet we have failed. Do you not think that Carlos Management Limited who was alloted 200m shares for £200k only 2 months before suspension would have been told the full story....

Also PJ has quite a substantial holding as well.

Something just does not feel right. I can't believe the 3 investors this year have taken this lying down unless maybe it was an option on the table at the start, i don't know.

Anyone else care to comment?

I and about 10 other investors attended the meeting today. The new board were polite, helpful, candid, articulate and damn straight. Every investor came out of the AGM with a sense of knowing those at the helm had their hands firmly on the tiller, they new their goals, they had a plan at the ready and they had the experience to carry it through.

It was very interesting to learn more about Intabet and its product and hear from investors who had invested in that before them taking over MDC. The product has both a market it can dominate and therefore it's fair to say a valuation way above the current share price should be forth coming; The challenge is to get that news out to the market and investors and in turn see positive sentiment and confidence return.

To be honest first the product needs to launch, which it will very soon. Their Tech/Marketing manager has a lot of experience and spoke very well. Asked independently on technical issues, his knowledge and understanding was there and it's a delight to talk with someone who one knows is honestly good.

The board have been very busy in 6 weeks. It's been 'very' thorough and as can be seen in the latest RNS it's rescued assets, cash and value. The eye is now more on the future. New smaller cheaper offices, half the workforce, a product to launch, a brand to create, the media agency part Eyeconomy to be supported and improved and a whole lot more. They hadn't even drawn down any of the bank loan so that was a positive too.

This is a new company, only 2 senior managers remain as far as we could tell from the old guard. The business might have for some years been tarnished, but do I think we have a phoenix to rise from the ashes? Yes I do. It's great for investors, but it will also be great for those at the coal face within the company who work so hard and all have careers they'd like to grow within a well run company going forward.

Through whatever good business means I think the board will be a success. I love the fact they even only have 2 company credit cards and that's just for the CEO and Chairman with the CEO signing each off.

No more wasted money and words or empty promises. Instead proper fiduciary duty, investors involved and news releases that are meaningful and valued.

It's been a long journey, but the past is definitely the past. Draw a line...

Enjoy the new MDC, give it your support, don't proffer misinformation here, deal in true facts, relax, smile, take a breath and let's move on.
