Just come to have a look as top list faller and low for year.

initial reaction "You have to be joking"

Market cap £7.8 Million approx

Sales for 5 months £500,000 - So say £1 million for a year. PSR X 7.8 (say)Sould (imo) be under 1.

Loss before tax £347K

Intangible assets £2,444K

Cash £1,909K but exceeded by log term borrowings and provisions of £2,472K, but somehow they amd a loss on investment income and finance costs [I have to try and see why]



Anyone like to try and suggest a value for this company??????????????

Took out an SB this am...just in case.....no trades but the rns said they are going to start buying back from today.....

[barefoot1] 18/11/2007 12:15

Stupid...me???? yes!!! but i knew what i meant....had a late night last night....

[barefoot1] 18/11/2007 12:15

Lol...just re read it...yes i meant it could have the reverse effect and fly!!!! sorry :O)

[barefoot1] 18/11/2007 12:04

Lol im half asleep so not sure what you mean and i probably sound thick...but they sold 250k between Jan and April this year and the share price dropped....now they are buying them back so i would assume the share price will go up....

[sawbones] 18/11/2007 11:53

lol to drop back? One would hope it would have the opposite effect.

[barefoot1] 18/11/2007 11:46

So buying them back could have the same effect...

[barefoot1] 18/11/2007 11:46

Looks like their selling could have caused the share price to drop back then....;O)

Sabien Technology Gr General Capital to buy up to 250,000 shares in Sabien

LONDON (Thomson Financial) - General Capital Group PLC said it plans to buy
up to 250,000 shares in Sabien Technology Group PLC from Nov 19.
The purchases will restore General Capital's holding in Sabien to the level
it held prior to selling 250,000 Sabien ordinary shares between January and
April 2007, at a time when a lock-in agreement signed in Dec 2006 relating to
such shares was in force.
General Capital will hold 3.5 mln Sabien shares or 13.2 pct of the company.

[barefoot1] 17/11/2007 13:01

May have to buy a few of these.....looks like it could be the bottom...:O)

[fillyourboot] 16/11/2007 11:41

Looks like the world might be waking up to the potential in this with blue chip orders from Deutsche Bank and o2 (bearing in mind that hese will be just test purchase prior to proper volume)

And general capital have to buy 250,00 shares in the market which will force the price up in the short term

[barefoot1] 21/8/2007 10:39

Looks like this shares in hibernation.......

[fillyourboot] 03/8/2007 11:04

yeah i never understood it either they make an announcment confirming an order about 10X last years turnover and what happens? Zip.......bizarre

[sawbones] 31/7/2007 10:24

It will start to fly soon no doubt....

[barefoot1] 05/6/2007 13:22

Bought some of these....hoping i caught the bottom...;o)

The quote below is part of the 24/05 announcement of SNT's reaction to the Energy White Paper; after their comments is a brief account of RBS' installation of M2G. Presumably the money saved on energy can now be spent on legal fees re AMRO!

"In April 2007 Graham Jennings, Group Energy Manager at Royal Bank of Scotland
Group, said: "M2G is a key component in the group's energy efficiency strategy,
and the installation of M2G units throughout our UK fleet of buildings played a
major role in helping the bank deliver on its commitment to reducing its energy
consumption and carbon emissions. Sabien and M2G delivered."

HAVE to agree with you rivaldo. i,ll be watching devlopments over the coming year. it looks interesting, but i wouldn,t buy yet.

[rivaldo] 23/4/2007 11:31

Yep. SNT has potential, the product looks good etc, can't disagree at all.

But an almost £17m m/cap looks extremely toppy imho based on just £163k of sales in the last quarter and a substantial loss, when the prospectus had been holdig out all sorts of hope to the contrary. There are lots of good products out there, but if the management can't deliver sales......

On the current sales profile I believe SNT should currently be valued at most at around £8m-£10m including the monies raised, i.e 32p-40p.

[labatie] 22/4/2007 17:57

With respect, I disagree. It's always difficult to value potential, but where the potential is a) backed by the convincing long term trial result in Lismore, b) the strong backing from the property services co in Scotland and c) an independent report, I think one can be rather more charitable. The field of energy conservation is one where regulation is only going one way, ie more stringent, which is greatly in SNT's favour, as is business' desire to be seen to be more environmentally aware. As an ex-small cos fund manager, I would (and am) quite happy to hold this.

On the other hand, a higher profile and some further sales announcements would help us all!

[rivaldo] 30/3/2007 08:26

Hi, I've been watching these since IPO, but hugely disappointed by today's results - and there are questions to answer.

SNT now has a £16.6m m/cap, which means there's a hell of a lot priced in for a company with £1.2m annualised sales and still loss-making.

More to the point, have you lot seen the prospectus? In it SNT claimed for the 3 months to September '06 they had £416k of sales and £147k PBT (which is what got me interested). That means in the next 3 months to December '06 they made just £163k of sales and a £285k loss...a terrible performance.

I like the look of the business, but the valuation is far too high for me at present, unless they pull some RNS's out of the hat. That sales trend is abysmal and has to be seen to be reversed.

I'd value it at about half the current price (if that).

there seems to be so little interest in this one...not just on this BB but on others as well...not one trade reported yet.

no rns ref. results announcement due....doesn't say lots about the company and it's pr side of things....having said that, i suppose they saved approx. £300 by not providing one! ..bodes well perhaps if they are tight on costs! lol!!
