From ORA Capital results announced today....which holds over 25% of OXA




"Oxford Advanced Surfaces Group Plc (OAS) is an AIM listed company that develops and commercialises advanced materials and technology solutions using its patented VISARC(TM) nanoparticle and Onto(TM) reactive chemistry surface modification technologies. The VISARCTM anti-reflective coating (ARC) technology has several applications including display screens, solar cells and ophthalmic lenses for eyewear. OAS's initial focus is the displays market which has been an early adopter of ARCs for large area TV's, PC display monitors, tablets and phones. These are all being introduced to the consumer and industrial display markets with anti-reflection coatings being used as a key differentiator and value-add. Existing market leading technologies have demonstrated a performance of 1.0% reflection wheras similar ARC coatings using the VISARCTM technology has shown that reflection can be reduced to 0.3% whilst maintaining other performance properties. During 2012, OAS signed its first ARC joint development agreement which is on-going. In addition, the company has now synthesised nanoparticles with different functionalities to match substrate and formulation / binder systems covering glass and polymer substrates and which have been supplied to customers for evaluation in their formulations and coatings. OAS has also continued to develop the key technologies within OntoTM, which is a highly reactive chemistry proprietary to OAS. The company is currently focussing attention on the Onto(TM)XL cross-linking technology which delivers both surface functionalisation and inter-layer adhesion. This has been evaluated with a broad range of coatings (inks, polyvinyl polymers) and substrates (PET, PE, PTFE, PC, etc.). Improved performance has been demonstrated against industry standard tests with data packages collected and marketed across multiple industries. The 2013 priority for this Onto technology is around marketing and commercialisation of the new demonstrated performance capability proven in 2012.OAS held cash balances of GBP4.3 million at 31 December 2012. ORA's holding in OAS at 31 January 2013 was 25.3 per cent."

Thanks multi.

[multibagger] 05/4/2013 16:03

Yeah rrr - gave them a call this morning and they expecting to make the announcement towards the end of the month. Good luck all :)

[rrr] 05/4/2013 11:04

Should be due results this month, going by previous years.

[rrr] 14/3/2013 14:26

Not good. See you again when OXA announce some good news I hope.

[vitamal] 14/3/2013 13:02

I shouldn't use this as a chat line but thanks although sympathy is for the guy who jumped off a bridge on one side and a multiple accident on the other involving the rescue serviced nr esher

[rrr] 14/3/2013 12:02

If that's you just now, you have my sympathy!

[vitamal] 14/3/2013 11:15

They certainly do when sitting on the A3 not moving for an hour with no traffic moving either way!

[rrr] 14/3/2013 10:58

Sometimes babies arrive a little later that expected.

[vitamal] 14/3/2013 10:36

On 14 June 2012 we were told about a 9 month development agreement By my reckoning 9 months has endedWhere's the update?

[multibagger] 14/3/2013 07:00

Quested has a healthy appetite - added another 2.54m and now holds over 21.26 m shares (approx 10.86%) of the company.....good luck all :)

[melodrama] 12/3/2013 09:19

Bob the Quester goes above 10%, there was a chunky buy yesterday, probably Bob doing his weekly shop.

[multibagger] 08/3/2013 16:50

Yachtie8078....I have taken the plunge as well and made some bold switches to get more of OXA...fortune favours the brave and all that ! I am reasonably confident that OXA will come good....if it does not, then I live and learn...yet again :) Good luck !

[yachtie8078] 08/3/2013 10:05

multibagger - hope you're right! I've just swapped 5k worth of AND for a nibble here @ 12.5 :-)

[multibagger] 04/3/2013 08:22

Picked up some more....can't resist - as I strongly feel a multibagger in the making :)

[philo124] 28/2/2013 16:20

Thanks, nice move after an dip.

[multibagger] 28/2/2013 16:05

The level of activity is unusual and the price is moving up nicely. 450k bought in a single transaction....bid at 12.25p

Some significant announcement due, if not, a fund raising at a decent price like OXP,OBT etc.....as they are all from the same ORA Capital stable. My money is on a major global deal with Dow. Good luck all :)
