Zinc Media Share Discussion Threads

Bought into these a while back at 56.8p

Great update today, certainly seems to be heading in the right direction. Old thread is full of stale once holders and now derampers. They can stay there.

UKD - you have been spot on with this before and I suspect you still are. What a pile of Junk this turned out to be, and as lpl1 says full of "sugar- coating".

No talk of Profits as expected.

Marketcap £10m - £6m cash, £9.3m booked revs for 2021 (£43m pipeline)

[babbler] 14/1/2021 10:46

They raised in October

There's an awful lot of "sugar-coating" in this update. I agree with UKDannyBoy, btw.

Attempt to boost the price before a placing. Expect one imminently.

That's a good positive update this morning.

Their "Creative Management" is old and decrepit.

Take it from one who knows.

GW has absolutely ZERO knowledge about TV Production - he's in the Oil biz - so how would he be able to ascertain whether their projections are truthful.

Anyway, I don't own any shares in this P. scheme........

I'm not invested because I think it's a "great" media company, I'm invested because I think it's an interesting turnaround play – relatively new management, supportive major shareholder (Herald), disillusioned retail shareholder base (judging from advfn), improved financing in place.

I view it as high risk, so I accept it might not make it, and clearly the covid restrictions hit their plans in 2020. But to me it still looks interesting and I think the real test will come as they exit the covid restrictions. Can they build on the firmer financial base they have established by growing the top line through new business?

[lpl1] 01/1/2021 11:21

Just checking in guys - Oh dear! GW1, you really should have listened to my sage advice instead of patronising me, mate.There are so many better Media Companies to invest in.....

[toffeeman] 16/12/2020 07:51

Then they would never issue an RNS

[ukdannyboy] 15/12/2020 21:18

ZIN should RNS only when their business plan stretches beyond funding salaries with placings, until then we should all just assume that’s the goal.

[lpl1] 13/12/2020 10:49

CAPITAL "C" criminal, UKDannyboy!

[ukdannyboy] 13/12/2020 09:42

These guys really have rinsed shareholders dry.

Almost criminal when you think they’ve never made a penny profit, current market cap £9,000,000 current cash balance £2,000,000(ish), amount raised through placings this year £7,500,000.

[clocktower] 07/12/2020 20:10

BBC programs are as historically records show not that profitable for ZIN as far as I can recall, so be careful, work is not profit and this company is really noted for is paying its directors well and issuing loads of shares etc. Investors have had a disastrous ride. History repeats itself!

[seagulled] 27/11/2020 08:56

yes that is the article. Calling content like that "holy grail" is risible. Or perhaps not since the "holy Grail" doesn't exist and requires faith to believe in the somewhat buy beware promise of eternal youth. Make sure you choose wisely...

[josephrobert] 26/11/2020 22:26

What did you tell us before Ipl1?

[josephrobert] 26/11/2020 22:23

Recently or a long time ago seagulled? Can you provide a link?

This was the last link I could find - but it is a 'holy grail moment'
