Sabien Technology Share Discussion Threads

Can't help thinking that this technology will be built in to all future equipment by the OEM in some way even allowing for the patents. Growth limited to existing installed equipment which may be reasonable in size but any really old systems would probably be better replaced. Share pirice may likely rise for a time but longterm?

Probaly worth a punt in the short term but not long term imho.

joe, you are right about that, but I have taken some comfort from the recent trading statement and the new contract wins posted after it. Hopefully we will see some further momentum reported with the full year results and not too much talk of further delays. As long as there is no bad news then this still looks cheap.

[joesoap3] 28/10/2010 12:33

I hope you are right GOLIARD but it is a very illiquid share and after the selling which exagerated the fall in the share price any small amount of buying would immediately push the price up. It has risen almost 40% from 26p and so any selling will also cause a drop.

However if the news is good then hopefully it will continue upwards

[goliard] 28/10/2010 10:23

Some interesting trading going on here ahead of the full year results. SNT has attracted my attention as there is little BB activity, but there has been steady buying of the shares over the last few days. The previous update, the contract wins since then and the movement in the price suggests that there is some good news to come and I have bought in over the last couple of days. It certainly looks like there has been a leak and the news is positive.

The Company will be announcing its full year results to 30 June 2010 on 29 October 2010 and looks forward to updating the market at that time on the continued progress made since the year end.

Results must be good then otherwise they would not look forward to updating the market. LOL However not that daft since they also say continued progress.

[g2am] 18/10/2010 15:59

Haha it certainly would appear so. I don't mind, I get rather tired of the rampers and de-rampers on ADVFN anyway.

Yeah I thought it was and I looked at level 2 on friday and it just appears to be small trades so I don't think anything major to worry about. The results should hopefully be positive and I'm happy to wait in until then and beyond. I don't think it's going to double again up to 70p or so anytime soon but I still haven't changed my opinion on this company. I think they are run well and it will just take time to get going properly. It is very illiquid so any selling tends to be more volatile than other more liquid companies.

I expect quite a positive outlook with the results but we'll just have to wait and see.

[joesoap3] 15/10/2010 18:57

G2AM, Seems there's only me and you on this board

Yes it is a it worrying because after the rise it dropped but levelled off at 45ish for quite a while after vthe year end but recently has consistently dropped to its present level as the results are due. If these are not released soon, it will be half year end before they are and that is worrying

It seems to me that either someone knows the results are not good or it's being shorted by rivals.

I still think it has great potential and so the gambler in me is prepared to wait till the results with fingers legs and feet all tightly crossed hopeing for decent results or at least a positive statement from the board about the future.

[g2am] 15/10/2010 14:43

Joesoap3, that's ok, I don't check the BB's that much anyway.

I don't think they seem to know yet when the results are due, which is annoying, I would have thought Oct/Nov and that a notification would have been out already. Doesn't fill me with confidence, especially now that we are back down at 33p, can't believe it. A bit annoying actually

[joesoap3] 29/9/2010 17:28

G2AM,

I really must apologise for seemingly ignoring your comment but I have been out of the country since just after my posting and only had limited internet access since then.

Glad you got a reply as I e-mailed recently using the messaging system on the website to ask when the results were due. I've not had any reply although in fairness, I have not been at home to receive any telephone calls but an e-mail reply would have been nice.

Liked the article in the Telegraph. I bought shares ( only a few) after the article in Mail on Sunday as it seemed to me like a good company to invest in for the future. Previous postings on here will show my views.

It is a shame it shot up so quickly and then has come all the way back down. However I believe it will be a success and look forward to hearing progress in November some time.

I still cant understand why it takes from end of June to November to issue results though.

[g2am] 17/9/2010 10:32

Following an article I read I emailed the head of corporate responsibility at a very large insurance firm regarding their claim to be carbon neutral. This was achieved through mainly carbon credits so I suggested looking at new technologies and mentioned Sabien. Funnily enough I just received a respone and they are already in talks with them. Clearly this means nothing in terms of sales so don't take it as a decision to buy or sell, just thought I'd mention it. DYOR etc etc

[amt] 14/9/2010 10:02

good article in todays Telegraph

[g2am] 22/8/2010 21:06

Hi Joesoap3,

Yeah it can be quiet sometimes as it's a pretty illiquid share but now and again there are some posts. That's interesting to hear about the fines, I didn't know that. That might do a bit to shift the share price up, the article around government limits helped it certainly. I believe they are going to report in November. I emailed the CEO to ask a few questions and he kindly gave me a phone call and told me it would be November. I had a good 30-40 minute chat with him and I have to say he was a really nice guy. He came across very well and it was pretty impressive he took the time to pick up the phone.

[joesoap3] 17/8/2010 16:08

not a busy board this but noticed it has made a start at creeping back up bit by bit. I believe that it is some time in Sept when fines are being given to companies that fail to meet the targets so maybe a few more contracts may be forthcoming.

Anyone know when SNT is due to report? Last year it was October which seems a long time after year end

[cliley454] 01/6/2010 08:54

Delays not cancellations and good news around the corner. Seems like a good time to buy, just waiting for the best price.
While we wait take a look at MPS, market cap just £500k. Some interesting recent developments.

[g2am] 01/6/2010 08:32

Yup, and quite a bit it would seem, no surprise tho. For long term holders this is a good chance to buy somemore at this price

[jeanesy] 01/6/2010 07:27

Delays in orders mean that the share price will drop today.

[g2am] 16/4/2010 16:36

Hopefully so but it'll calm down again, it's not that liquid. Not complaining though, it's a nice price to see.

Joesoap3 - I agree, it's a great product that I believe will be fruitfull to businesses over the coming years. It pays for itself in a short timescale and has some big companies bougth in. We just need to get the orders in as you say...

[pippit] 16/4/2010 12:21

Here we go again. Buy tip in IC

[joesoap3] 15/4/2010 13:27

Surely if a share price doubles on what has been basically one tip from a Sunday newspaper, then profit taking is bound to occur. Look at the last spike in July last year, it rose, fell, then rose again before settling lower but still a lot higher than before the spike.

Rememberthat this company is not some oil explorer that rises on rumour and then drops when the news doesnt live up to the hype. This company has a very good product that saves money on energy costs which also just happens to be the aim of all governments. So its clients will be looking at not only saving money for their company but also avoids falling foul of governments obsession with fining people who dont comply with their dictats.

All it needs now is a regular flow of new orders and it will surely resume its upward trend.

I think this has the potential of being a very successful company but the share price will never be a constant up gradient line.

[g2am] 14/4/2010 17:04

I'm hoping it doesn't, but I did expect some sort of retrace. Let's hope it settles above 50. I'd be pretty gutted if it did fall to 29p again, however it would give me a great top up opportunity

[trt] 14/4/2010 15:51

Thought the price would fall back quickly after the buyers dried up.Could we see 29p again I wonder.

[g2am] 08/4/2010 13:48

Hmmmm, not sure about that. I think some much needed attention has been showered on this stock. I believe it could go considerably higher, but in the longer term. I'll buy more on any dips, but I can't see it moving quickly in the opposite direction yet.....I stand to be corrected however

[trt] 08/4/2010 11:28

Here come the profit takers - down we go !!!

[trt] 08/4/2010 09:00

This has risen very quickly off the back of the Mail comment, could we be in for some profit taking now - might move very quickly in the opposite direction
