Don't you just love AIM!!! How many company's report (within a month) a 9 million contract (with a very high probability of more) follwed by a 14 million contract (ditto as above) and there is not a post on the BB to separate them!! Awesome - ;-)

THE CHART LOOKS LIKE A POTENTIAL DEATH SLIDE

[dr knowledge] 04/10/2005 10:06

Ssssssshhhhhh!

[m.t.glass] 30/9/2005 16:04

A 930 close would do fine. No rush.

[cat] 29/9/2005 22:45

nice and quiet
these are the best ones
what a fantastic chart

[m.t.glass] 29/9/2005 08:56

Maybe some were waiting for the spread to narrow?
Sometimes 1p or less, currently still 13p (with MMs mostly each 40p)

Edit 10am: spread OK now..

[dr knowledge] 29/9/2005 08:50

This is indeed a strange one! Another stonking contract and not a single trade either way (so far!).

[m.t.glass] 29/9/2005 08:06

And what a key place to be at this time - Shanghai Airport

"...This installation will act as a reference site to support the Group's continuing
penetration of the fast-growing Chinese market..."

Quite! And a market at the centre of worldwide attention.

quality - yet another contract

[leesonlookalike] 26/9/2005 10:07

Did so, at 8.88 just with gbp15k's tied up in ither stocks at the moment, and got caught out LONG on a stock on RTD !!

But, this stock is well favoured by the USA Govt and any other Govt wanting to get top of the range military goodies !!

I'm aiming for GBP10.48 20% profit, Don't think I'll be selling though on a T25, I think I'm actually writing a cheque for this one !

Fill Ya boots :-)

LONDON (AFX) - Shares in Ultra Electronics PLC moved higher in late morning
trade, tracking the firm mid cap trend, supported by news of a UBS upgrade to
'buy' from 'neutral' on valuation grounds, with an increased price target of 990
pence, up from 980 previously, according to dealers.
At 11.38 am, Ultra Electronics shares were 9 pence higher at 830, while the
FTSE 250 index was up 31.2 points at 7,585.5.
In a note published today, UBS noted that Ultra Electronics' shares have
traded sideways during the last three months, underperforming the UK aerospace
and defence index by 5 pct.
The Swiss-owned broker concluded that Ultra Electronics valuation now looks
more compelling, in its view, with the stock trading on an adjusted enterprise
value/EBITA multiple of 10.4 time, versus 10.7 times elsewhere in the sector.
UBS also said it thinks Monday's interim results from Ultra Electronics can
deliver further upgrades, and it sees scope for around 5 pct increases for
consensus 2006 estimates.
The broker said it expects further acquisitions from Ultra Electronics this
year, as cash generation should remain strong and it thinks the business can
comfortably gear-up by a further 50 mln stg following the recent Audiopack
purchase.
UBS concluded that it views Ultra Electronics as a core holding in the UK
electronics sector.

Ultra Electronics Holdings plc
("Ultra" or "the Group")

Ultra awarded US$13m contract for battlespace IT radios

Ultra announces that its Tactical Communication Systems business in Montreal,
Canada has won an initial US$13 million contract to supply enhanced tactical
radios to the US Army for the Patriot air defence missile system. The contract
has been awarded by the Canadian Commercial Corporation acting on behalf of the
US Department of Defense. Ultra will supply an upgraded version of its High
Capacity Line of Sight (HCLOS) radio that is the current baseline for the Joint
Network Transport Capability (JNTC) programme, providing wideband communications
for use by the US Army. The radios are to be delivered by September 2006.

Ultra's HCLOS radios and associated equipment are key elements of the US Army's
transformation of its battlespace information management process. They provide a
data highway in the Army's communication system and are a vital component of the
wide area network for voice and data transmission between the various command
levels in land forces.

Ultra's radio communication systems provide secure battlefield trunk telephone
and high-capacity data telecommunication services to link battlefield commanders
and their combat forces. They accommodate the increasing need for data-based
communications, including email and near-real-time video transmissions, in
addition to voice communications.

Douglas Caster, Chief Executive of Ultra, commented: "Ultra has developed its
radio to meet the stringent requirements of the Patriot missile system. This
gives Ultra a world-leading capability and this contract is potentially the
start of a multi-year programme to upgrade radio systems in service with the US
Army."

closed long this am from 723...opened short ahead of profit taking

[scumdog] 05/5/2005 11:29

Hi mitchy
Seems like the riskier the company the more posts an ADVFN BB attracts.
This company shows consistently good growth so no one comments!
Hey . . . could be a good method of stock selection!!

I suspect people on ADVFN are more into making a fast buck than investing long term.

[mitchy] 07/3/2005 09:04

this must be THE slowest stock on the market to get out of bed in the morning..!

[mitchy] 02/3/2005 20:40

It's hard to believe the total apparent lack of interest suggested by the lack of posts in this terrific little company....simply don't understand it.

[mitchy] 25/2/2005 08:26

My tip for 2005 and beyond....so there!
