Management were able to produce an unexpected TU, since which time they have presided over much destruction of shareholder value.

We are now six weeks past the year end without so much as a squeak. Very poor indeed in my view.


'six weeks past the year end'???? He's completely lost it, has the old gimmer.

look at the bod

IQE RNS says it's going to make £31M EBITDA this year, mcap £500M (after losing big contract and market slowing)

Rone says it's going to make the same and mcap £100M after cash.

I bet more people top up on IQE today than here!

No interims announcement!Shocking.

Looking at the Dow, GS down 7% is worth a 100 points of the loss.

[jonc] 12/11/2018 21:07

Which poster was it that floated the idea of a GS stake which turned out to be false?

[jonc] 12/11/2018 21:05

Joto on a like for like basis turnover fell. It's all in the public domain.

Company secretary should be chasing the stock movement,it’s a requirement.....we know how poor the regulation is down here.....we wouldn’t want anyone amassing stock unregulated and under the nose of the cowboy management they sure seem to have other interests at the moment!!....

sikhtec , september TU said revenues UP 50% , is that not the case , also ebitda up to £20 million , is that also not the case ?

[andydangerous] 12/11/2018 20:19

Loaf, they couldn't even manage the Total Voting Rights RNS this month. Surely they'd like to know who's been buying? Or do they already know?

[loafofbread] 12/11/2018 20:02

At least they will get a good price when they start the share buy back!

Again clever use of the sets system to crash the share.

Zero volume, perhaps £30K of sells over buys and £7.5M wiped off the Mcap.

Almost all sells AT, almost all buys O trades so the SETS system gets played.

I've been told 3 times that the company is unaware of the reason behind the share price fall and that they have nothing to update the market on since the TU.

Quite unbelievable that they can't RNS that themselves.

[jonc] 12/11/2018 19:07

Jojo the last TU simply was not true. The market can see that hence why the continues to decline.

[sikhthetech] 12/11/2018 18:51

Joto,

why was the last TU very upbeat?

[sikhthetech] 12/11/2018 18:38

Luafc, good post...

The repeated failures have been plain to see for everyone, every year - always Jam tomorrow followed by disappointment when it came to results... Only the rthm gang, traders pretending to be holders, try and convince ANYONE THEY CAN SWAY that everything is going well... and have regularly tried to derail any contrarian views ...


And it's been going on since well before the blog and has nothing to do with whether the poster is bullish or not...

[stocky] 12/11/2018 18:03

Anyone else hold IQE? That received a drumming today,

[digitalis] 12/11/2018 17:40

I’m sorry too jarvis.... I’m chewing a stick seeing this daily rot and nothing back from the company!!...we fell into this trap yrs ago with months of nothing from the company and it provided incubation for manipulation and negativity....itR17;s entirely in their hands now but I am not gonna hold my breath for fireworks this month....

The TU - when it finally materialises- will give us a major clue as to the future.

If it contains better revenue and cash figures than expected (because more was found down the back of the sofa) then all well and good.

However, if there are exceptionals and other ‘one off’s’ plus various reasons for reduced expectations then that will be a clear signal that the games are likely to continue.

The only real hope is for the initiative to be wrenched away from management by another institution building a significant stake.

I remain sitting tight but feeling less than hopeful by the day I regret to say.

I wish all my investments had these “activist̶1; hedge fund kid wonders running them then I could join lelout sleeping rough.....I could then get him drunk one night on meths and ask why he got the sack

No management team of blnx/RTHM has shone. I cannot remember a time when management of this company has ever been properly straight about strategy and financial performance with its shareholders. Overpaid under-performers who never buy stock. The practice of reporting adjusted EBITDA has gone on for so long that nobody knows what net income is. Lardass 24 is so confused he thinks the company has been profitable for years.

There may be or may have been underhand practices, but let's cut the delusion. The company has regularly failed against targets, and acquisitions have IMHO been heavily motivated by desires to hide this failure and create impressions of growth.

There has never been any interest to see the books during the entire 11 years other than some bs internet articles about Murdoch.
Maybe it was Murdock from the A-Team. ;)
