Tobyjug thank you for your unasked advice, no more than I would have expected, forever the polite idiot. This share has collapsed in value and you still think it a good buy....You need a reality check.....now filtered

Goodbye,and a tip,stick to premium bonds!

[silveraw] 08/1/2008 19:14

L2 is still 3 v 1...MMs happy to take in sells from bored holders without dropping the offer. Just WINS on 0.33p with the other 3 on 0.35p.

L,morning, yes I read that piece,limo makers a little worried. lets hope there is something for us.

Interesting piece in the Sunday Times yesterday about the problems in the European Car Industry with new legislation pending enforcement in 2010. It mentioned developments aimed at reducing carbon emissions (including more efficient air conditioning).

ParOS is nicely placed to benefit from assisting car manufacturers deliver these fuel efficiencies. One of the most exciting potential applications is the controller they developed with DTI funding to regulate the camless engine (Active Valve Train) from Lotus.

Thanks for that article longshanks!

[longshanks] 03/1/2008 11:47

I will - just don't know when. It looks to me like they will be doing a fundraising some time this year and I may try to get an invite to the placing.

[tobyjug] 03/1/2008 11:36

L,thanks for that. you tempted to pick up anymore?

---------------------------

ParOS PLC (PARO)
Report updated: 21st December 2007
INTRODUCTION

ParOS plc transferred from OFEX to AIM in March 2006 - the closing middle market share price on the day prior to transfer was 3.5p, giving a market cap of £16.5 million.

Shortly prior to listing on AIM, ParOS plc (formerly Oak Prospects plc) acquired Parametric Optimization Solutions Ltd (ParOS) for an initial consideration of £5.4 million, paid in shares representing 45.9% of the enlarged share capital, together with deferred consideration of up to £2.7 million. Founded in 2002, ParOS provides energy saving advanced optimisation and control solutions to industry, allowing users to optimise productivity and efficiency of a system or process, without incurring significant additional hardware spend - the technology had been developed over the previous 15 years in conjunction with The Centre for Process Systems Engineering of Imperial College - the technology can be hardwired onto an existing microchip within the system (for retrofit) or onto a new microchip which is then tailor-made for the customer's specific application.

At the time of the AIM listing, the following commercial arrangements had been entered into:

i) Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. had entered into a 10-year license for ParOS to provide control technology in air separation and other application areas;

ii) in collaboration with Lotus Engineering Ltd, as part of a DTI-backed project, ParOS' technologyis being used to assist in the development of a controller for a next-generation "active valve train" or "cam-less" car engine; and

iii) in collaboration with FG Europe SA, ParOS' technology is being used to assist in the development of a controller in the next generation air conditioning units, residential and commercial.

UPDATES

The interim results to June 2006 (comparatives for 6 months to December 2005) showed sales of £9,000 (2005: £nil) and pre-tax loss of £188,000 (2005: £(55,000)). The company reported that a laboratory has been established in Cyprus to build and test prototypes for use with air-conditioning units and hydrogen storage devices.

The December 2006 update reported that work had started on a 2-year EU funded CONNECT project worth £120,000 - ParOS is leading the project consortium comprising 3 leading research groups, 5 European SME's and 2 large industrial companies. ParOS will be applying its controllers in a range of different industrial scenarios, including batch polymerisation, combined heat and power production, tile furnaces and plasma reactors for wire manufacture.

The March 2007 update reported that an EU patent will be granted for the parametric Model Predictive Control technology - an October update reported that the patent had been granted.

The final results to December 2006 (comparatives for 6 months to December 2005) showed sales of £60,000 (2005: £nil) and pre-tax loss of £1.9 million (2005: £55,000) - the results include a charge for impairment of intangible assets and goodwill of £1.2 million (2005: £nil). The company reported that year end cash was £837,000.

In June, Tropical SA placed a €25,000 contract for the design of a prototype controller to be fitted to the air conditioning and refrigeration units of small trucks and vans which Tropical SA currently supplies into the European market - the prototype is due for delivery in July 2007.

In July, Tropical SA (see above para) placed a €60,000 contract for the development of controllers for hydrogen based electrical power generators of 1kW, 3kW and 5kW.

The interim results to June 2007 showed sales of £38,000 (2006: £9,000) and pre-tax loss of £468,000 (2006: £(188,000)). The company reported that period end cash was £613,000.

In November, Tropical SA (see June and July 2007) placed a €50,000 contract for the development of a controller for a 1kW reformed gas based fuel cell power generator - 50% 0f the contract is expected to be recognised in 2007, with the balance in 2008. Later in the month, ParOS was appointed as an external consultant to a research programme investigating the performance and behaviour of Multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles - the contract is worth £6,000 for the provision of software and £58,000 for consultancy fees over a period of 36 months - Cranfield University and Imperial College will lead the research programme that started in September 2007 funded by a grant from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council.

The December update reported that a controller for batch polymerisation has been developed as part of the EU CONNECT project (see December 2006) - the model contains more than 900 variables and 30 dynamic equations, and in tests with competing technology has achieved a more accurate and faster response, especially in the presence of unmodelled disturbances, while meeting the product quality specifications.
Research Standing
A concept stock with an interesting pedigree out of Imperial College, an overhead structure which currently appears reasonable and generating income from development work, which also serves the purpose of increasing market knowledge.

A broker note has been requested.

Silveraw,agree. tb5, I will make my own mind up about what to companies to invest in, anyway, thanks for your knowledge and input to this thread!

[teddybear5] 31/12/2007 00:11

chancer6 filters any poster who gives a real valuation of paro the company is going now where he keeps ramping them so he can get out at a profit and leave every one else with a worthless holding don't listen to him.

[silveraw] 30/12/2007 22:04

SP is holding well with very little volume over the last 7 trading days. Bodes well for 2008 and a little news will go a long way. The technical advances being made by PARO will bear fruit.

They're all grown adults and have a mind of their own... If they fool for it then they are to blame as much as the person you're referring too.

Calm down and start your weekend.

You have issues my fellow.

Enjoy your weekend.

In fairness to Chancer , we are now at the dumped stage of the paros cycle so any pumping would be a very welcome relief [ : )

[chancer6] 28/12/2007 15:20

Filtered Loser - get a life....

[8trader] 28/12/2007 15:08

I think people should read the Sct thread chancer and read how a con
man pump and dumper operates, hundreds of posts with fancy prices then
you dump the same day despite ramping it with promises of news soon.
