[confusedcoalboy] 15/5/2008 15:20

oh dear. this looks even worse than a Swindon jalfrezei.

[old tom howard] 15/5/2008 15:17

Right then, Where were we?

[old tom howard] 15/5/2008 14:35

Thanks Ted.

anyone who has gone to alton towers can see that this company needs massive change, the technology has potential but the current management have done nothing to get any value .
they have destroyed share holder value and have basically failed.
i am a share holder and pull my hair out at the way this company has been run.
with new management we have a chance , with out it it is a bank crupt shell.

Results to be announced on 30th May. The last possible day before the shares would be suspended under the 6 month rule.

It is difficult to form a view without hearing a lot more from each side. However, reading through the agenda items, I would agree with the need for the explanations that are being requested.

Anyone any views re the EGM - for or against the resolutions?

[backmarker] 09/5/2008 15:45

there doesn't appear to be any real resistance levels until we hit 17p.

what goes down can go up ..... just as fast !!

[backmarker] 09/5/2008 13:05

the interim statement is good news, and what we were waiting for.

I just wonder what is taking so long with them producing actual results. we know last year will be bad. perhaps they are trying to stuff them with even more bad figures knowing the YourDay news will more than compensate ?

[happygolucky] 09/5/2008 11:31

Results pending - seem to have been so for last few weeks ;-(

A long way to go to return to heady highs of 30p+ but it's good to see two of my holdings (BLNX the other) near the top of the biggest risers.

[doctorbob2] 09/5/2008 10:41

lots of buys and up 32% - ? news pending

[doctorbob2] 08/5/2008 11:11

£1200 in buys and it moves up 7%; similar yesterday and a big mark up last week in % terms; I know I am repeating myself but things seem to be brewing

[backmarker] 08/5/2008 10:34

it doesn't seem to take much buying to move these up a tad.

if i thought it would continue i'd sell all my other holdings, buy 10,000 VSH a day for the next 50 days then sell up. .... doh, they'd probably drop for every 5,000 i sold.

at least it proves these aren't dead.

[doctorbob2] 07/5/2008 11:27

is something brewing on the positive front--up 8% and only one small buy so far today

[doctorbob2] 25/4/2008 08:54

thnx bubles; thought to be too good to be true

[bubles] 25/4/2008 08:51

Doctorbob2,

This was a project back in 2005!

[doctorbob2] 24/4/2008 20:43

My post that I just made seems to have got "lost"; but it was along the lines of me browsing on Google re VSH and coming across an announcement on a page dated today (?new news ?old but couldn't see any previous RNS) of an agreement between Oak Holdings Plc and VSH/Sony on input into the "YES" project in Yorkshire. If this is "news" then it may explain the 2 late large buys and perhaps we can expect an RNS tomorrow. I'm in at 2.85p from a few weeks back.

Daily Commentary

Our system posted a BUY CONFIRMED today. The previous SELL recommendation was made on 18.02.2008 (65) days ago, when the stock price was 4.7500. Since then VSH has fallen -36.84% .

BUY-IF is confirmed by a white candlestick with a higher open. The buying price is taken as today's open ( 2.8800 ) according to the Rules of Confirmation.

The recent bullish formation leading to the BUY-IF signal is confirmed today. The market is ready for a new bullish move. It opened today with a gap-up and the day's activity resulted in a close higher than the open. This is one of our valid confirmation criteria.

We hope that you bought this stock. You should watch the upward gap in the opening, wait a bit, feel the bullish tendency of the market making sure that prices stay over the opening price and then go long. Your benchmark was the opening price of the upward gap.

If you bought, continue to hold this stock until the confirmation of the next SELL-IF signal. You are on safe grounds as long as the future prices continue to trade above the benchmark price. What to do if you did not buy? Maybe, you did not have time to follow the session or you simply delegated the delicate job of confirmation to us. Well it is a bit late, but not too late. You may still find suitable prices for buying in the following sessions.

The market is currently cold for short-sellers. Avoid any short sales and cover the short positions immediately if there are any.

If YourDay is successful at Alton Towers the theory is theme-parks and others world-wide will want it and VSH could make a fortune. A question here is whether YourDay patents hold up and/or there are viable look-a-likes.

VSH owns 58% of YourDay Inc., and has exclusive rights to install YourDay in Europe, Africa, and Middle East.

Merlin, who own AT, will presumably want to roll YourDay out to Chessington and Thorpe Park for starters.

I haven't been able to find out much about YourDay Inc., and whether it is a private or public company. Also it is not clear what control VSH actually has, e.g. does it own common stock, are there different classes of shareholder in YD with different voting rights ?

Does YourDay Inc. retains the rights in US and elsewhere, or has it licensed them out? If AT is a success this should lead to US sales. How much of a cut will VSH get via its shareholding in YourDay Inc. ?

It might be interesting to go to the AGM.

[mjcrockett] 23/4/2008 14:59

Backmarker, The company reported last October that they sold YourDay to 'around 4% of the Alton Towers Gate'. However, the 45% increase is quoted as an 'incease in sales per visitor since the park opened in March' - so may not relate to the 4% figure at all.

Nonetheless, it is interesting to speculate. I believe that Alton Towers gets around 2.5m visitors per year. Say YourDay gets 5% of these at an average of say £15 per guest. This would give you revenue for the season of around £2m to YourDay - 58% to VSH. You would hope that, now they have got the set up costs out of the way, the margins on this ought to be quite good. So they should be making a bit, but not huge amounts on Alton Towers - but it could be the first theme park of many. Obviously, my figures could be way off the mark.

I suspect VSH was waiting to get the consumer press launch for YourDay out of the way. Perhaps we'll now start to get better newsflow.

Unfortunately, simply saying there has been a 45% increase in sales per visitor means nothing: is that an increase from 1p to 1.45p or from £1 to £1.45p. VSH have a lot to do on the investor relations front !

I remain bullish on YourDay.
