A placing can be done to a few institutional investors (i.e. professional or "sophisticated investors" in legal terms) without a full prospectus and hence is intrinsically much cheaper and easier. We need to get rid of the prospectus directive in its current form. The whole thing is a nonsense anyway. Any fool can buy shares in the market without knowing anything about the company at all, but if the same investor wants to buy more shares in a rights issue, he has to be given a lot more information.

IF true, then that's highly significant. Also Directors putting their own money into Placing means they're putting things on the line now personally, nothing like that to energise people.<br /><br />It's a punt, and only with fun money, but I like risk/reward, as the loss is 100%, whereas I could see upside of 500%+ if things go well, from a £6m mkt cap.<br /><br />Cheers, Paul.Paul Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13081674666652796786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443862031662825789.post-19322034985099737142012-11-30T12:04:00.512+00:002012-11-30T12:04:00.512+00:00Thanks for the mention of my Colour-coded RNS page...Thanks for the mention of my Colour-coded RNS page.

A couple of t...Paul,<br /><br />2Ergo does look interesting.<br /><br />A couple of thinks I'm not clear on:<br /><br />1.) They say that their only business now is "podifi™, TikTap™ and Customer Insight ". Podifi and TikTap launched in Q4, so had little change to contribute to revenue. "Customer Insight" is described as "providing major brands with data and customer insights derived from consumer and retail activity across the podifi™ and TikTap™ platforms". So analytics from podifi/tikitap (which presumably ouldn't generate any revenue before these had been launched. So where is all the revenue coming from? It specifically discounts revenue from discontinued operations.<br /><br />2.) The results of discontinued operations suggest that in 2011 there was £7.5 million revenue and £6.5 million costs. In 2012 - £1.5 million revenue, £6.7 million costs. So revenue dropped enormously, yet their cost of sales increased? My worry would be that costs have been assigned to discontinued operations which don't belong there, in order to make this year's figures look better...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18374379465417740764noreply@blogger.com
