MPH always bounces back.

Nice to see a bit of a tick up finally. I added a few more yesterday - it's back at what should be good support levels, technical indicators are showing some nice positive divergences, and the AGM statement was very positive, all re-enforcing my view based on the fundamentals that fair value right now is nearer the year highs than these levels. Another positive RNS this morning can't do any harm, either. Small caps are out of favour at the moment, but I'm happy to put my money in where I see what looks like good value and wait for it to shine through in the fullness of time.

First trade of the day was a buy ... not a sell as reported ... mine , only 2k but will add on strength ,

[nardelli] 07/9/2007 10:58

[jason8466] 07/9/2007 09:16

see its all in the tea leaves lol

[jason8466] 07/9/2007 08:46

Morning all,

Agreed wbj on the infrastructure.

I note that the share price has not moved since yesterdays presentation. This seems to suggest that those that attended in a professional capacity are sitting on the fence a while longer. I am aware that Marben attended and I would hope others did as well. A balenced view is needed not one persons interpretation (especially if that person holds shares) of the info given out.
Maybe with technology as it is we may soon be able to look in on a webcam presentation and glean the info ourselves.

Again I kick myself for not attending.

Have a good day all,

Its friday so I hope its a blue day.

[marben100] 07/9/2007 08:41

Yes... and I imagine there's some quiet satisfaction that, having kicked MPH in the teeth, YSL might now find themselves facing a little competition :0)

Cheers,

Mark

[wbjunior] 07/9/2007 07:31

Morning looks like a great move by MM to utilise the YSL infrastructure to expand the Ungaro line, excellent strategy........................wbj

Marchpole New Licence and Distribution


RNS Number:4492D
Marchpole Holdings PLC
07 September 2007




MARCHPOLE HOLDINGS PLC
("Marchpole" or "the Company")

New Licence and Distribution Agreement

First Licence and Distribution Agreements For Emanuel Ungaro and Ungaro Homme in
South America


Marchpole Holdings plc, (LSE: MPH), the fast growing fashion brand management
group, is pleased to announce the first long term licence and distribution
agreements for Emanuel Ungaro and Ungaro Homme in South America.

These agreements have been signed with the leading Colombian menswear retailer
and manufacturer, TEXTRON SA ('Textron') for an initial period of five years,
extendable for a further five years. Under the terms of the agreements, Textron
will manufacture the Ungaro Homme formal wear range and will also purchase
Ungaro Homme casual wear from Marchpole to augment the formal wear range. Both
ranges will be distributed through TEXTRON's 28 wholly owned retail stores,
"Villa Romana".

In addition Marchpole will also supply Textron with a full range of Emanuel
Ungaro menswear to be distributed through a new Emanuel Ungaro flagship store in
Bogota, the capital of Colombia. This new store will be designed to adopt a
'lifestyle destination concept', another first for the Emanuel Ungaro brand, and
it is expected to open in November 2007.

Michael Morris, Marchpole Executive Deputy Chairman commented: "We are delighted
to sign this agreement with TEXTRON. We have known the company for many years as
the successful Colombian licencee for the Yves Saint Laurent menswear diffusion
line. It is therefore wholly appropriate for us to collaborate with TEXTRON to
launch the Emanuel Ungaro menswear range into South America, and further
endorses the Board's strategic decision to use the Ungaro menswear range as a
successful replacement for our former YSL licence. We value the partnership with
TEXTRON as another important step towards the international expansion of
Marchpole into lucrative markets such as South America, and we look forward to a
long and successful partnership with the company."

- Marchpole is renowned for its integrated approach to brand
management, taking a brand from concept to design studio to the customer
interface.

- The Group has grown considerably in the past four years, from a
licensee with one core licence (YSL menswear) - to today's international
business that manages its brands across a multitude of clothing lines and
accessories

- Marchpole's acquisition (March 2006) of Moda America - the US
licensee for leading designer Emanuel Ungaro - provided further growth
opportunities in the UK and America and strengthened the Company's relationship
with Ungaro

- The acquisition also enabled the Company to launch the Ungaro brand,
already established by Marchpole in Europe and Asia, into the US, Canada and
South America. The acquisition has also enabled the Company to re-launch JCC
into America.

- In March 2007 Marchpole acquired 100% of Greenmark Limited, an
importer and wholesaler of ladies shoes who currently supply in excess of 2.5
million pairs of shoes per annum

Ah.. rest assured, nothing negative - but be prepared for a long haul, before the true potential becomes bleedin' obvious enough for the market.

wb:-
Is that not it just up the page next to Emanuel Ungaro?

Edit:- No, it`s not multilingual.

[wbjunior] 06/9/2007 15:46

marben, hope it was good news as it may take a bomb to get these moving, trying to find that new web site for homemummy that was mentioned without luck so far..................wbj

[marben100] 06/9/2007 13:49

Just got back from a good meeting. Lots to write up, so readers will have to be patient.

Cheers,

Mark

[fardistanthills] 06/9/2007 09:20

Marben, thanks in advance for anything you can glean. Comment about a doubling of licence income interesting? Maybe that is another area for Q,s What is the expected size of the licence contribution?

[marben100] 06/9/2007 09:08

Moda was < 10% of 06/07 revenue - so not such a big deal. Mind you, I'd like to see it being bigger - I'll add that to my question list.

[acs] 06/9/2007 09:00

No mention of Moda progress in AGM statement

[dan de lion] 06/9/2007 08:29

Have bought another 5,000. @ 1.257.

[marben100] 06/9/2007 08:15

Would have been nice to meet - maybe next time. I've got a lot of questions and will report back.

Cheers,

Mark
