07/9/2005 08:51 | Looks like a pre profit warning if such a thing exists. Bickerton drags on and no timescale for appeal to House of Lords. Can't believe they've appointed Muselle as CEO although who else would take job with no prospect of lucrative share options. There again they could have awarded themselves options at 1/2p!!! | ![]() blueblood | |
07/9/2005 08:12 | Artisan CEO Freeman resigns, finance director Musselle to replace him LONDON (AFX) - Artisan (UK) PLC said its chief executive Martyn Freeman has decided to stand stand down as chief executive and as a director with immediate effect, and will be replaced by finance director Chris Musselle.

07/9/2005 07:22 | AGM Statement RNS Number:9240Q Artisan (UK) PLC 07 September 2005 Artisan (UK) plc Chairman's Statement Annual General Meeting 7 September 2005 At the last AGM I said that the strategy of investing in the core activities was then producing a more stable and profitable return. I am very pleased that the results for 2005 have borne this out with pre tax profits nearly doubling to #2.1m. Whilst this may have been a little flattered by a very successful conclusion to the year's trading, there is no doubt that Rippon Homes continued to provide a strong return and the positive expectations for Artisan (UK) Developments business park activity did translate into improved sales and profitability. Your management team has more than delivered against expectations. Your team has also pursued a number of acquisition opportunities, but is yet to find the correct opportunity. I am sure that shareholders will recognise that the Group has successfully stabilised through concentration on its core activities. Having achieved this stabilisation the board will continue to search for an acquisition that meets its criteria both on price and potential to enhance its activities. As separately announced today we have taken the opportunity to restructure our management team. At the same time Martyn Freeman, has been a key element of our team through the last few years, has decided to stand down and I thank him greatly for his contributions as Chief Executive. I welcome John Jones, Managing Director of Rippon Homes, back to the main board and look forward to his positive contributions. I am pleased to say that Financial Director Chris Musselle now becomes Chief Executive. We have also recognised the strong contributions made by the financial controllers in the trading companies and appointed Geoff Lawler and Frances Harvey financial directors of the companies they represent. Your board also recognises that, either through acquisition or our own development, there is the opportunity for wider involvement in the property market and this may well result in a further appointment to the board when the right opportunity is found. Those familiar with Artisan will be aware that for the last three years we have been involved in litigation with the purchaser of Bickerton Construction Limited and will be aware that this overhangs Artisan and its shareholders. I am pleased to remind you that not only have we won the original hearing, but also the appeal. Since the appeal hearing the appellants have sought leave for permission to appeal to the House of Lords. In the meantime Artisan has received #456,000 on account of costs, although this will only be recognised in the Profit and Loss account once we have achieved closure on the appeal process. The outlook at present is a little mixed. Whilst Artisan (UK) Developments continues to see good trading in its business park activities, the sales achieved to date at Rippon Homes have been below our expectations as, in common with other developers, we have seen reduced demand. However the Rippon Homes team will utilise all avenues to complete sales. The board is confident that if more normal trading conditions return to the residential market in the autumn and early 2006, expectations for the financial year can be met.

06/9/2005 07:47 | A home-grown victory as Turner tops poll for best painting Charlotte Higgins Tuesday September 6, 2005 The Guardian A humble barber's son, born in Covent Garden, has triumphed over Van Gogh, Piero della Francesca and Manet in the hunt to find the greatest painting in Britain. The nation's favourite is not by a continental big hitter, but by JMW Turner - The Fighting Temeraire - according to a poll run by BBC Radio 4's Today programme and the National Gallery. The Turner won with 31,892 votes from the public; The Hay Wain, by Turner's contemporary and rival John Constable, came second, with 21,711. Both hang in the National Gallery. Third was Edouard Manet's A Bar at the Folies-Bergère, owned by the Courtauld Gallery, with 11,295. The National Gallery's director, Charles Saumarez Smith, was surprised by the outcome: "I thought Van Gogh's Sunflowers or Constable's The Hay Wain, of all our pictures, would win." Five paintings in the gallery were shortlisted in the poll, in which a total of 118,977 votes were cast, making it the most popular in Radio 4's history. "It's interesting that, in this great collection of European paintings, the top two are British," said Mr Saumarez Smith as the result was announced at the gallery. The Turner's full title - The Fighting Temeraire Tugged to Her Last Berth To Be Broken Up, 1838 - refers to the final journey of a ship built in 1798 which fought at Trafalgar, just behind Nelson's Victory. After 40 years she was being taken to the breakers, her splendour contrasting with the steam tug towing her - a collision of romanticism and modernity. Stephen Deuchar, the director of Tate Britain, home of the Turner bequest, said: "It's a great thrill to see Turner acclaimed by the public in this way. It confirms what we perhaps knew already, that Turner is Britain's favourite painter." Constable, whose Hay Wain many expected to walk away with the vote, "is associated with more rooted English traditions", he added, while Turner produced "great proto-modernist landscapes", as demonstrated in the recent, hugely popular Tate Britain exhibition Turner Whistler Monet. According to Ernst Vegelin, a curator at the Courtauld Gallery, whose Manet came third in the poll: "Turner was always going to be the frontrunner. It's a sentimental evocation of Britain as a seafaring nation." A Bar at the Folies-Bergère, was, he said, notwithstanding the presence at number five of David Hockney's 1970-71 work Mr and Mrs Clark and Percy, "the most modern picture on the list. "It presents a new and distinctively modern world view, a world in which there is ambiguity and distortion". The Arnolfini Portrait, by Jan Van Eyck, was fourth; Van Gogh's Sunflowers was sixth; Revd Robert Walker Skating on Duddingston Loch, by Sir Henry Raeburn, was seventh; The Last of England, by Ford Madox Brown, was eighth; The Baptism of Christ, by Piero della Francesca, ninth; and The Rake's Progress, by William Hogarth, 10th. | ![]() maxk | |

31/8/2005 16:52 | Doshdabbler at 32% discount to TNAV its not that risky! It also has interests in industrial construction a market that tends to run countercyclical to housebuilding; this should give it some protection against a housing slump. Having (foolishly) bought around 8p in the Dean era, I have been increasing my holding at and below 3p so my APP is now 3.69p. I expect to get out with a small profit in due course. | ![]() hosede | |
31/8/2005 14:12 | I'll wait until the agm and if I'm not impressed then I'm out after six long years. | ![]() gjabrj | |
31/8/2005 08:03 | blueblood - am still fully invested here (have not sold a single share) and see no reason to exit a profitable well run company trading at a 32% discount to TNAV. in my view, the o/s legal case (house of lords possibility et al) is probably worth a good chunk of that 32%, if not most of it. steve | ![]() sll | |
30/8/2005 23:03 | Thanks SLL do u still have the faith? I'm thinking of getting rid my av is 4p. | ![]() blueblood | |
30/8/2005 10:44 | No offence, but why stick with a fairly risky share that is already fairly priced? ART's turnover is hardly going to skyrocket over the next few years, therefore I expect it to tread water for a long time to come IMHO. Stevens can't be that smart if he bought in at 11p. I imagine Dean is still having a right old chuckle down in Gibraltar. I am not gloating, just thoroughly bemused by anyone's continuing faith in this company. | doshdabbler | |
28/8/2005 23:08 | When is the AGM? | ![]() blueblood | |
26/8/2005 13:13 | AGM Is anyone here planning to attend the AGM? Unfortunately I cannot as I am in the USA. Because I believe that the litigation issues will be resolved in Artisan's favour in the next few months, the drag that these have imposed on Artisan's management time and resources will be lifted, I believe it is time for the directors to now set out a specific strategy for getting the company to grow-a strategy that is realistic and has a good probability of being implemented successfully. Artisan has been treading water for the past four years. This should not be permitted to go on and on just for the sake of keeping the directors in a well paid job. I know that AGm's are by convention not intended by the company concerned to be a forum for Q and A and a dialogue with shareholders but questions are allowed at the end of the meeting and I am asking here if someone is willing to put together a few direct questions on the issue of Artisan's future to Stevens and the board.
