So far yes, but with Anthony Simonds-Gooding buying 400,000 at 37.5p in July I thought they might have further to go. We could do with some good news or a poitive trading statement to give the price a lift.

Shares magazine had a bit to say about OMG on the 6th July. Does anyone know what?

[radon] 05/7/2006 11:08

39p - way to go!!!!

Is this the new product range beginning to show up?
Anybody know what is driving this stellar performance?
Anybody have any idea of the technical limits on this? Will we see 50p?
What is this "Geospatial Imaging"?

Am I missing something here. Sells outnumber buys 10 to 1 and the price goes up???

The company released a major new mocap software product (Nexus) and a
new hardware range, new cameras "MX13+" and the "ultranet" today.

That must be good news! Bit late in the 2nd half of the FY tho.

OMG have been a fantastic out-performer over recent months and I would offer my congratulations to those with titanium sphericals who topped up below 12p last autumn :0)

Go back a couple of years though and we had a 'record' deal followed by a price spike, director sells and decline.

[busterdog2] 26/6/2006 11:20

games.......my thoughts exactly.

[games] 26/6/2006 10:58

garth..... I'm quite upbeat about omg at the mo, and while director sales can have many reasons they are generaly viewed on the negative side. The amount is not that great, and the price received attractive.

anyhow a snip of from Vicon from last Thursday.

Guess this director agrees (not)

OMG plc ("OMG" or "the Company")

Got legs today!

Thanks games. A technology company that is growing and is also profitable.

The CEO was on Bloomberg this morning. He nearly impressed, but did enjoy using the personal pronoun rather too much, (hence the rather verbose waffle in the results this morning?) but otherwise this looks a cracking company. He said they were looking at acquisitions which given an decent current assets figure of nearly 8 million out of a 20 million market cap they should have scope to achieve. Joined you guys this morning.

I think momentum will start to build now.

[busterdog2] 07/6/2006 16:46
