Maybe if you can attend the next Stilo AGM you can put on the suggestion form ice cream and coke.

I am sure our management team will be able to conjure something up in the growing coke and ice cream marketplace.

I am sure they take on board "very seriously" expert opinions from our resident "professional market expert" like yourself.

[mudbath] 15/2/2018 10:00

The only thing that floats my ice cream is coke.

[mudbath] 15/2/2018 09:21

Unfortunately then rather similar to the number and regularity of your fact free posts.
It was wishful thinking when I mentioned 18 positive posts.

[stilolosses] 14/2/2018 23:43

I like that one Escape!

Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!

Mind you, I suppose management have to "say something" about the market.

Options could include:

A. Growing substantially
B. Growing significantly
C. Growing
D. Static
E. Dwindling
F. Dwindling significantly
G. Dwindling substantially
H. Don't know mate
I. So and so
J. Its doing OK

......... The list really is endless!

MUDBATH!!!!!!!

Oh dear! Oh dear! Oh dear! Oh dear!

First, I am most offended by your total and utter disregard to the fact that I clearly informed all those who care to read these posts that I was going to attempt to write 19 posts and not 18 posts.

Clearly you are struggling to understand that there is a big difference between 18 and 19. The difference is 1.

God help us! I am sure somebody said you are an ex banker who retired. With figures like that, if I was your boss, I would have shown you the door as soon as I had realised your lack of understanding of numbers. In other words, I would have SACKED you on the spot "Old Boy"!

I am equally offended by your ability to not appreciate my attempt to point out all the positive news about Stilo International and its senior management team.

So your not happy about any negative news, and.......... It appears your not even happy with any positive news!

Maybe, I should simply do something in the middle. Something like neutral news!

Alternatively, the option of FAKE NEWS Is always available.

Would you like me to crack on and CHURN some more FAKE NEWS!!

Old boy!!!

Why is the market growing “ significantly “ , can they please change that in the report to “ substantially “ , as the significance may not be related to profit.

Hee hee hee ha hoo hoo.

[mudbath] 14/2/2018 19:54

StiloLosses.
We don't seem to be going anywhere with the first four of your series of 18,so consider yourself relieved of the necessity to churn out any further "positives".
Good man.

POSITIVE POST NUMBER 4

Our management team really has done a wonderful job in the niche market that Stilo operates in. Let's face it not everybody operates in this area. The likes of Asda, Lidl, Tesco and Ocado cannot simply enter the market and start doing business.

The problem with this niche market is the actual market size. For the last 25 years or so it has simply been far too small.

Positive news is on the horizon though. I think we can all now put this one to bed and agree that the market size really is going to suddenly explode over the next few months, especially when management is able to finally launch version 6 of Author Bridge.

Oops!!!

What I actually meant is when Stilo management is able to launch version 3 of Author Bridge.

Let's not forget to date it has taken 4 years plus to get Author Bridge to its current version 2 status.

We must all agree now that Stilo operates in such a imminently massive, gigantic, huge market that will explode anytime within the next 25 years.

Oops!!

What I meant is that the market size will explode within the next 25 months or so.

Mind you, a few years ago Stilo use to finish their annual report by saying the market "is growing significantly"!!!

For the last few years they now finish their annual report by saying that the " market continues to grow".

I think that we may all now agree that management should not have changed this statement and should have left the market growth rate as "growing significantly".

I myself am going to get some really strong glue and some other strong adhesive and stick my chair securely to the ground because with the market size about to explode imminently I don't want to end up in my local A & E Department with some kind of serious "market size injury"!

POSITIVE POST NUMBER 3

Concentrating purely on the most precious product Stilo has, Omnimark, shareholders should all come together and celebrate and rejoice to the lord for absolute miracles.

Stilo is the only company on the planet to have accumulated an annual revenue stream of around £1.2 million with Omnimark and exclusively have the license for this tool.

We are so incredibly blessed that it has only taken 20 years to get Omnimark revenues to this level. We should praise the lord for miracles like this don't come round often.

Worse case scenario could be that it could have taken Stilo 40 years or so to get Omnimark revenues to their current absolutely brilliant levels.

Next time I say a prayer we should all think of our delightful management team and pray that they will be able to deliver similar levels of success in the next 20 year cycle.

Anybody disagreeing with the above really should be tried in front of a court of law and should be found guilty of "moaning" and be sentenced to at least 15 years imprisonment.

Anybody thinking that Stilo should have spent the £50 million or so that they have gone through during the last 20 years or so on kebabs, fish and chip shops should be ridiculed.

Operating in the kebab and fish and chip shop industry is not as unique as operating in Stilo's market.

In closing, to date management have to be applauded for going through £50 million or and in doing so creating amazing shareholder value.

There just is not many management teams that can go through £50 million business in order to deliver year in, year out revenues of £1.8 million annually.

Absolutely great, wonderful success to date.

Let's not forget they could have gone bust after going through all that money. As it is we have a thriving business generating £1.8 annually.

It could have been a completely different story.

They could have gone through £100 million.

They could have gone bust.

The theories are endless and not worth thinking about.

Praise our mighty lord for our fantastic management team and praise our lord for miracles.

POSITIVE POST 2

In terms of one of Stilo's main babies Migrate I think we should all be grateful that 10 years after it was first talked about it is now generating a few hundred thousand pounds each year. Let's just count our blessings that it was not discontinued like 4 out of 5 products that Stilo tend to work on.

With Migrate now generating a few quid we can at least be grateful that it is generating some serious revenues that was alluded to by management back in 2007.

We should be very, very, very grateful to our management team that after 10 years of trying Stilo are now at last hit such heights with Migrate and the only way now is up.

I think if they told investors 10 years ago that Migrate was going to reach such dizzy heights, investors would have been jumping up and down with happiness and untold glee.

Hats off to our management team in terms of Migrate.

[clocktower] 13/2/2018 14:01

LOL SL - I think mud does a good job of turning between stocks - So TERN on mud, or is it Turn them over? :-)

[stilolosses] 13/2/2018 13:25

Oops. Error detected. I mean Stilo is Muds share for 2018.

Or is Tern now his new toy?

Mud?

[stilolosses] 13/2/2018 13:23

Let's not forget this is Muds share for 2028.

[stilolosses] 13/2/2018 13:20

So thoroughly grateful for your support Mud. Least we can agree on a couple of things: being positive and time being of the essence.

What could move to price Clock?

Well, if Stilo comes out with news that we do not want to hear then it can certainly move south. At that stage it would be more of an emergency rather than a flat line.

Mud could contribute and create some FAKE news which could stop the flat lining and move it north.

Stilo could come out with some fantastic figures or good news to again stop the flat lining and move it north.

The problem Stilo have at the moment is moving all its revenue streams north but what they will most certainly report is an increase in one stream and a reduction in the other.

In the meantime, I am going to have to CRACK ON with some positive posts for a change.

[clocktower] 13/2/2018 11:10

The facts are - that recently there has been little interest in Stilo`s stock - volumes have stagnated, much like the company seems to have. So why does STL remain listed mud?

SL, very entertaining but what could possibly move the stock from it`s flat-lining between 4.5/5.5 over the past nine months or so?

[mudbath] 13/2/2018 10:51

You crack on StiloLosses.
With 18 more POSITIVE POSTS in your pipeline,time is of the essence.

[stilolosses] 13/2/2018 10:03

You could take part and do what you normally do. Make something up. You know, something like FAKE news!

[mudbath] 13/2/2018 09:48

Roll on POSITIVE POST NUMBER 2.(Can't wait)

[stilolosses] 12/2/2018 22:30

Not long to go before we get those important 12 month figures that will reflect the progress made over the last year.

Again, with no news forthcoming, and with no news being made up by some so called "professional market experts", I thought I would write something. Mind you, I promise not to just make something up just for the sake of it.

Hopefully, if I am quick, I will be able to change the ratio rate of my so called negative posts to positive posts from the allegedly current rate of 1 positive post for every 19 negative ones.

Hopefully, I will be able to post 19 POSITIVE posts (19 positive reasons) followed by one single negative post.

I hope to beat Stilo International to completing my posts before they publish their 12 month results, unless they post them earlier than normal.

Anyway, here I go with my first positive post.

POSITIVE POST NUMBER 1:

Since listing on the exchange in 2000 I think I may be wrong about the value that Stilo has created for its shareholders since.

I don't want to upset anybody about the value Stilo has created over the last 18 years so I think that it may be wholly appropriate for me to possibly change my stance on this and say that "some people may be right. Stilo may have in fact created great shareholder value during the turn of the century since 2000 and Stilo management should if fact be applauded for the creating great shareholder value to date".

So, in closing, I think I may have been wrong in thinking otherwise so "all hands together for the great, tremendous shareholder value that Stilo management has created during the last 18 years".

We should really all be tremendously grateful that Stilo management continue to create great, fantastic, shareholder value at such a fantastic and tremendous rate.

[stilolosses] 05/2/2018 00:42

I am holding Stilo on a very, very, very, very long term basis Firth.

Just because I hold them does not mean I should accept how things are. If Stilo was a big player, which it isn't, share holders would be asking for heads to roll after a year or 2, let alone 20 years!

Tern iis Muds new toy for the time being and as a punt I still stand by what I said about it a few weeks ago.

I am still positive on Stilo purely on a long term years basis but as for anything else I think we all know what to expect with Stilo.

Management can and will just slowly chip away at it over the next few years.

Nobody has and nobody will buy Stilo at the rate in which it has and continues to be static and flat year after year,after year.

Truth hurts sometimes but this is exactly and has been exactly the case since the turn of the century.

[stilolosses] 04/2/2018 17:20

STILO's "well sought after technology" to date still has not bared fruit. It has been listed for 18 years.

I think your mantra about "well sought after technology is around 10 years old isn't it?

Mr Know It All, Mr Perfect, I have given you so much homework to do during the last few months which you still have not completed.

Maybe when Stilo reports in about 4 weeks time you can use your "market professional expertise" and discuss the numbers, or the lack of them, in some great detail.

Until then you can go and play with your new Tern toy because obviously you have never been good at doing your homework.

Least, not for the last 10 years!

[firth] 04/2/2018 17:20

Stilo Losses what I find hard to understand is why you hold shares in 'Stilo' at all??? Your posting ratio is 19 negative for every positive.
If I thought like you,I would be long gone in case I was right.

As for 'Tern' I do not hold any because I am tied up in 'Stilo'. However I recall when 'Mudbath' first mentioned them a few weeks ago you agreed with him.

Going back to 'Stilo' it is taking for ever. I have faith that 'Mudbath' is right. 'Why'?, because if he was concerned , he would have been out months ago.
It would be great to get a bid and speed the whole job up!!!! OK, I am allowed to dream.

[mudbath] 04/2/2018 15:28

I am a proponent of the school of thought that considers STILO to be a well managed company with a much sought after technology set;being one that will reward stakeholders handsomely in due course.
As for TERN;a golden opportunity to acquire shares at sub 3 pence continues to remain available, which,for a company with a market cap of just £4million,seems quite amazing, when the value of its investee companies has been put at well over £100million.

[stilolosses] 04/2/2018 14:30

20 years plus of trading!;

18 years being listed on the exchange!;

Share price still around the 5 pence mark!:

Remind me Mr TERN! Is this not just a touch unacceptable?

Just a touch unacceptable?
