Does anyone know the reason for the large fall in the share price on Friday?

Accsys
LSE: AXS
Something for the serious investor in the
building division. 
Accsys Technologies PLC is a UK incorporated
environmental science and technology company which is developing a range of
transformational technologies offering substantial improvements in the cost and
environmental impacts of production for a range of everyday materials.

The most advanced of these is the process for
wood acetylation, which effectively gives softwoods the durability, stability
and reliability of the very best hardwoods. Accsys is presently operating a
large scale wood acetylation test plant in the Netherlands. This is being used
to supply potential customers and licensees across the globe with test
quantities of Accoya, the company's branded wood product.
Accsys has a further range of other processes
which offer potential for future growth. A number of these technologies have
existing patent protection or are subject to pending patent applications and all
have been either proven at pilot-scale or subjected to independent validation by
experts. Accsys is in the process of constructing full-size production plants
for two of its technologies.

Great results yesterday and a 25% price increase to-day.Looking good.

[maggiori] 31/3/2006 11:32

Well, that's some rise over the last few days :-)

[maggiori] 27/3/2006 12:11

Director buys - that's more like it. Yes, they're small, but every little bit helps :0)

[maggiori] 01/3/2006 13:59

Looking very cheap now.

This hasn't been posted, although 6 weeks old now - still a significant award:

Oracle names Prologic Independent Software Vendor
of the Year 2005 at its UK Partner Awards



Encouraging they are working with Oracle - a quality company, one with a solid track record for reliability and forward thinking. Hopefully there will be a few strong contract wins in 2006 to back up the technology.

Hallo teapreacher o:)
Patience required on this one, but this could jump very suddenly on some positive news. Retail sector hopefully picking up, perhaps not as bad as some suggesting. If Prologic can build their client base - and they already have some quality clients - then share price will improve dramatically imo. Could well become a bid target too, as consolidation in the sector continues. Been a drift down but as you say, nice to see the small tick-up. Keeps us awake!

[teapreacher] 15/11/2005 13:40

The first up-tick here for a good while - anyone around?

Another high quality contract win.

RNS Number:1150R Prologic plc 09 September 2005

Yep, a bargain - a hidden gem in an exciting sector. Just waiting to be discovered.

Cheap indeed.

[cockneyrebel] 08/7/2005 10:01

Well TRX, XNC, ALN, ANK all doing great business, all hitting new highs or being taken over.

Then here's lil' ol' Prologic, going graet guns, as positive as all the rest, trading on an historic PE of 11, forward PE robably something like 8 in reality.

Way too cheap imo

CR

[cockneyrebel] 30/6/2005 11:54

Well TRX have just bought ANK - not many small epos type businesses left.

Can it be long before TRX or ALM start sniffing around PGC?


Cracking little company, doing great, very low PE - I reckon a positive AGM in July might set these alight

CR

[cockneyrebel] 11/6/2005 15:07

I reckon these are doing well enough without a bid.

Sheep will be buying the butt off it on the next trading statement imo.

CR

[maggiori] 11/6/2005 13:07

Yes. Without having looked at the PGC Board's interests in detail ,I see a key difference here between this and the XN saga (such a diasppointment - XN had so much potential).

The close links that existed between Torex and XN at shareholder/Director level don't seem to be a type of issue here at the mo for PGC in relation to other potential bidding companies.

Therefore, a bid type situation would work out much more favourably for PGC shareholder's than what happened at XN - with decent offer, and associated increase in share price.

All in the future, all speculation.

What is defintely more certain is that this is still very much a sector to be in, imo.

[cockneyrebel] 11/6/2005 12:39

Yep, consolidation apace - reckon the likes of ALM would be a predator for PGC myself

CR

[maggiori] 11/6/2005 12:28

PGC look more and more tempting. Particularly now since it will be soon XNC RIP. Torex got themselves an absolute bargain there.

[cockneyrebel] 06/6/2005 15:23

XNC in bid talks - gonna hot up the sector - makes PGC look very cheap now!

CR

[cockneyrebel] 06/6/2005 14:19

On top of all of this, ALM says business is strong and TRX and XNC soar.

PGC must be an absolute steal at this level imo.

One seller today and that has hit the price - creates a great opportunity imo.

CR

[zorija] 05/6/2005 10:11

Morning CR,
Just a modest holding.

[cockneyrebel] 04/6/2005 10:45

1 "We are very cognisant of the recent downturn in UK consumer sales, however we remain well positioned for further growth in the year ahead and I look forward to updating shareholders in due course."

2 "Whilst the retail sector has in general reported both increasingly competitive
commercial pressures and some evidence of slowdown in like for like sales, there
are widespread variations in the performance of individual retailers. A number
of Prologic's customers within the Fashion and Lifestyle sector continue to
exhibit both rapid growth and expansion."

3 "The overall investment cycle for IT system replacement remains favourable,
however the timing and closure of new systems sales is likely to be influenced
by the underlying trend in consumer expenditure as well as retailer performance"

This is what the company says High Noon.

Paragraph 1 - I guess 'cognisant' was a bit too much of a rare word for some but all they are saying is they are aware of the retail slowdown (who isn't?) but they are still set up for growth despite it.

Paragraph 2 - The slow down is patcthy but lots of Prologics customer are growing rapidly and expanding - is that negative? When they say a 'number in the fashion and lifestyle sector' they mean all their clients - that is the sector they serve.

Paragraph 3 - Over all the IT cycle is favourable but businesses will spend more when their cusstomers spend more - pretty obvious really.


So to sum it up, PGC are still set for growth, many of their customers are still going to see rapids growth and when retail picks up things will be even more exciting!

Add to all of this PGC are not dependent on just selling to their existing customers, they are looking to get new business from new customers as so far they have only scatched the surface of a massive market in the UK and Europe. On top of that they have invested heavily in their new software which is seeing great interest.

Thankfully we can read and make our own mind up High Noon. I'll buy more too. They look set to slaughter this years forecast and are on a single digit PE imo.

Thanks CR--like others I was a little spooked by the Analyst comment which does not square with a reading of the statement.
