CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

I am pleased to present the interim results for the six months ended 30 June
2004.

As previously announced, the Group has changed its financial year end from 30
June to 31 December and therefore the following results incorporate a second set
of interim results for the six month period ended 30 June which, together with
the interims to 31 December 2003 previously announced, make up the results for
the 12 months ended 30 June 2004.

The results reflect the positive impact from the restructuring following the
bank debt to equity swap and the cancellation of the deferred shares and share
premium account which was concluded at the start of the year.

The results for the six months ended 30 June 2004 demonstrate the progress we
are making in returning the group to profitability. The results are in line
with my expectation as outlined in the previous interim statement on 4 March
2004. Compared with the same period last year the loss on ordinary activities
before exceptional items and amortisation has been reduced from #3,887,385 to
#640,554.

Financial Results - Overview

Turnover for the continuing businesses for the twelve months ended 30 June 2004
was #7,935,486 (2003: #8,704,133). The decline is due to withdrawal from loss
making contracts and the deferment of a major title, which will now fall into
the current period, at Profile Pursuit Inc (PPI).

It is pleasing to report that gross margins from continuing activities for the
six months to 30 June have continued to improve to 16.7%. This compares with a
gross margin of 13.1% for the previous six-month period and 15.4% for the 12
months to 30 June 2004.

We have continued to strive to bring the Group's operating base to an
appropriate and sustainable level. Consequently ongoing administrative expenses
have fallen to #1,130,463, a reduction of some 37% over the previous six-month
period. .

Losses from continuing operations before interest, depreciation and amortisation
of goodwill were #287,902 a reduction of 79% from the previous six-month period.

During the period additional charges relating to the disposal of Marketlink and
Woodgate, the Group's fulfilment businesses, were identified and have reduced
the previously reported gain by #484,506 to #1,242,598. This adjustment has led
to the restatement of the results to 31 December 2003 by the equivalent amount,
increasing the loss for that period to #2,409,767.

The loss attributable to shareholders for the six months ended 30 June 2004
including discontinued items was #1,083,952, compared to #2,409,767 in the
previous period.

During the period Commonwealth Business Publications ceased to trade and is
shown as a discontinued operation together with the fulfilment division.

Financial Results - By Division

Publishing - Custom and Contract

This division consists of the Profile Pursuit companies, which operate in the UK
and US. Revenue is generated mainly from the sale of advertising space in
controlled circulation publications.

During the six months under review the UK turnover improved by #732,000 as a
result of introducing new and more regular titles. Revenue, however, decreased
in the US by #2.04 million due primarily to a deferment of one title into the
following accounting period in comparison to the equivalent period last year.
Despite the reduction in revenue the US division produced a profit on ordinary
activities for the period.

Our UK division has recently been appointed to publish a quarterly magazine on
behalf of the National Bingo Game Association (NBGA) as from November. The
magazine will be distributed to one million players via the NBGA member clubs
and is expected to make a significant contribution to earnings next year.

Publishing - Other

The remainder of the Group's publishing activities comprises Hazleton and
ProgrammeMaster.

The operations of Hazelton and ProgrammeMaster have been merged successfully and
now trade under our subsidiary Profile Sports Media Limited (PSM). Since this
restructuring, which was completed at the start of the year, both operations
have achieved a significant improvement in their trading performance despite
difficult advertising markets. The Football League remains an important
customer and we retain contracts to publish the official Matchday Programmes for
their showcase finals. In addition PSM has recently won the contract to produce
the official Matchday Programme for the Welsh Rugby Union. The company is also
pleased to announce that it also recently won an important publishing contract
to produce the Matchday Programme, monthly magazine, yearbook and junior
members' magazine for Chelsea Football Club. The benefit of these contracts
will be reflected in the current period.

Current Trading

As outlined in my previous interim statement it appears the media sector is
showing gradual signs of recovery. Advertising budgets are cautiously improving
which is demonstrated by #4.03 million of forward contracted advertising orders
for publications due to be published after 1 July 2004 being some 34% higher
than at the equivalent date last year. The Group remains committed to
maintaining tight cost controls and seeks to introduce new titles and
initiatives when appropriate. With the effect of the introduction of the new
contracts and the continuing improvement of revenues I look forward to reporting
further improvement at the year end which will be for the 18 month period ending
31 December 2004.

I would like to thank shareholders for their continued support. Our employees
have continued to demonstrate their commitment throughout a difficult period.

Some very good buying today, all the trades have been buys today and decent size ones too. In addition there was a 250,000 MM buy.

Just to add that trades roughly over 50,000 shares are delayed by an hour.

Neutral (Short term) - Jan 5, 2004
Has fallen 70% since the peak on 21 Oct 2003 at 4.10. Has broken through the ceiling of a falling trend channel. This indicates a slower falling rate initially, or the start of a more horizontal development. The stock is approaching the support at p 1.15, which may give a positive reaction. The poor liquidity of the stock (traded 95% of the days, mean 0.52 mill per day) may weaken the analysis.

Neutral (Medium term) - Jan 5, 2004
Has fallen 74% since the peak on 14 Jun 2002 at 4.75. Has broken through the floor of a rising trend channel. This indicates a slower rising rate at first, or the start of a more horizontal development. The stock is approaching the support at p 1.14, which may give a positive reaction. Poor liquidity (traded 95% of the days, mean 0.52 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

Neutral (Long term) - Jan 5, 2004
Has fallen 98% since the peak on 15 Jan 2001 at 51.50. Shows a strong development within a rising trend channel. A further positive development is indicated, and there is support against the floor of the trend channel. The stock has support at p 0.70 and resistance at p 4.00. Poor liquidity (traded 95% of the days, mean 0.52 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

New Update on today's close should come through later.

A further positive development is indicated, and there is support against the floor of the trend channel. The stock has support at p 0.70 and resistance at p 4.00.

END

CHARTERIS TREASURY NOMINEES LTD acquired them onto the rise to the 4 pence levels in October 2003.

Hello Sue.... Sounds it can go up 100% Again like in WHOG it is a smash, grab and run.... Will keep an eye on this. Do u have any views on Petrel Resources (PET). I m following this one and I thin will rocket up. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks

I will do some research and let you know later on in the week about PET if that is fine.

I think the price of PMD could recover to the 3-4 pence levels, where it was before the fundraising news was announced. It has been carried out now and judging by the heavy buying in the last few days the price could move upwards quite heavily.

250,000 MM buy at 1.4 pence.

Price 1.4-1.5 pence now.

Price 1.45-1.5 pence now, up 7.2%.

Another 250,000 Market Maker (MM) Buy, but this time at 1.5 pence.

Price 1.5-1.6 pence now. Trades over 50-60,000 shares are delayed by an hour.

Price 1.55-1.6 pence now, seems more buy orders being filled at 1.6 pence.

150,000 delayed buy at 1.38 pence reported from an hour ago.

Another 250,000 MM buy at 1.6 pence now. Had 3 * 250,000 MM buys so far today.

Price 1.6-1.75 pence now, up 21.8% today now. We could see a decisive break past 2 pence today. Resistance is at 2.58 pence.

Price has crossed the 50 and 200 day moving averages. In addition, the indicators should become even more positive after today's close.

Delayed buy of 170,000 shares reported at 1.49 pence.

Delayed buy of 199,409 shares reported at 1.49 pence.

Hi Sue! Here you are!

Take care on this one. I owned it 3years ago and it seemed like a one way bet.

A trading upside profit could be big, but there are many uncertainties. I dont like the fact that the placing was only 30% taken up. Will this affect the Chairmans hopes of improvements after "completion" of phase 2 of the restructuring. Can phase 2 be a success at only 30% take up?

No doubt ad spending will increase in a recovery, but a market cap of 3mio & losses of around 14mio, that can't be sustained.

Listen, I am not p*ssing on anyone's chips here, but I genuinely dont want you to risk to much of those juicy profits you made on CMSWebview! (PS I think it may be about to go again?)

Good Morning,

Hi, I am still a holder of CWV, CWV is one of my hot picks for this year. Just picking up other stocks that have fallen the hardest over the past year and are poised to recover with the economic conditions improving.

Best Regards,

Sue.

PMD could even be subject of a takeover target. There has been some sizeable trades in the past week and today the MMs have picked 750,000 shares in 3*250,000 buys.

Delayed 100,000 buy reported at 1.58 pence, delayed trades appearing in sell column.

Delayed buy of 61,797 reported at 1.59 pence.

Delayed 150,000 buy reported at 1.59 pence.

You could win big on this one Sue. The completion of balance sheet restructuring will be the key.

If the 30% take up of the offer is accompanied by positive noises from the bankers, then there could be significant upside.

Am considering a small punt.

Delayed 186,958 buy reported at 1.59 pence. Some sizeable buys coming through.

Hi thestatusquo, also there will be some hope for much improved trading in their results to be released towards end of March 2004.

Delayed 100,000 buy reported at 1.73 pence.

280,000 buy reported at 1.75 pence. More sizeable buys.

Price 1.75-1.8 pence now, could see another MM buy.

Hi Sue,

Thats me on board! Bought a little bit more than I originally intended!

Good luck! Glad you are here to keep me company!

250,000 buy reported at 1.78 pence.

That's not a problem, I think you'll see that you are keeping me company.

Yep, 250,000 MM buy at 1.8 pence.

We have had now 4*250,000 MM buys so far today.

We have a golden cross with the short term 10day moving up through the stabilising 50day on the chart.

We have also crossed 200 moving average at 1.62pence. All extremely positive trading signals. Volume pretty chunky.

If it closes above 1.62pence today, it looks very like 2pence will be tested very soon.

Yes and the indicators are turning more and more positive (Investtech should confirm this tonight). We have resistance at 2.58 pence. At the last breakout the price rose to 4 pence from these levels.
There was some hope that trading in the USA could have picked up too.

Delayed 110,766 buy reported at 1.78 pence. Should see the delayed buys at the 1.8 pence level start to come through.

mid-morning treeshake with the bid price.

Their website is pretty cool.

They still own several good titles which they had when I last owned the stock. These are all good revenue producers.

Whilst the losses do scare me a bit, one thing I would be very positive about is that turnover figure. You would imagine when ad spend recovers, that a company turning over 24mio, should be able to move back into profit.

24mio t/o compared to a market cap of ~4mio?????

Can you post their website address please so that I and others can have a look too.

Bid price should be up again once they have gathered some stock. No sign of the offer price creeping down.

Advertising giants have predicted 2004 as the year for recovery in advertising spending.

bid price going back up again...

http://www.profilemediagroup.co.uk

Thankyou. I will add it to the header.

They're coverage of sports events is fantastic.

That chart is lookin more & more tasty Sue!!

Yes it is, I thought it was starting to get tastier yesterday afternoon. Volume so far today has been extra-ordinary. It could easily end up at 10 million for the day.

Bid climbing back, treeshake over.

It's trades that are over and including 60,000 shares that are reported an hour late.

hmm...I'm doing my Project Management Revision whilst I am following the price. Reading up on an exciting topic called Monitoring & Control.

I remember my Uni days fondly, altho I dont think I made anywhere near as much money as you!! whilst studying chemistry!

gotta go. back in afternoon. enjoy Project Management!!!! Hope you Monitor PMD and Control the price to about 10pence!!!!

TSQ.

I have really enjoyed my days and now I'm in final year hoping to achieve a good degree. I got interested in the stock market through an economics module we had to do in the early part of my second year. The economics module was really fascinating and since then I just have an avid interest in the stock market.

See you later on...

Delayed buy of 117,802 reported at 1.8 pence.

100,000 reported at 1.79 pence is also a buy.

265,000 shares buy at 1.8 pence reported as delayed. Appearing in sell column are the delayed buys at the 1.8 pence level.

200,000 buy reported at full price of 1.95 pence. Good buying still coming through. Volume on course to hit 10 million or even more for the day by close.

Lunchtime treeshake now with the bid price, the MMs probably don't want to have many buy orders coming whilst they are out for lunch and hence have widened the spread. Bid price should be back up again soon.

Treeshake over!
Price 1.85-1.95 pence now.

Trying to get buy orders filled at 1.95 pence.

Should see a good few delayed buys coming through at 1.95 pence slightly later.

Price should close above 2 pence today.

Having trouble filling buy orders at 2 pence. The price should test the resistance at 2.58 pence tomorrow and may even go onto 3 pence + tomorrow too. Volume has been phenomenal so far today.

Price 1.9-2 pence now. Delayed buys around 1.95 pence coming through.

Price 1.95-2.10 pence now. Another 250,000 MM buy at 2 pence. Market Makers have bought 1.25 million shares today so far.

The 100,000 trades at 1.94 and 1.98 pence are buys. Have appeared in the sell column as they were delayed in reporting.

FANTASTIC TIMING YOUR FIRST POST SUEHELEN,I BOUGHT SOME THIS MORNING,KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

Delayed buys at 1.99 pence coming through now.

Thankyou pjm, should see even better gains tomorrow. All indicators are positive now.

The 100,000 at 1.99 just been reported is a buy too.

Hi Sue!

Glad I bought in now! Volume is incredible for this stock!

222,361 is a buy at 2 pence, delayed, appeared in sell column.

Price 2-2.1 pence now, should see some delayed buys at 2.1 pence come through later on.

Yes it is very much so today, more delayed trades yet to come through. Should reach estimated target of 10 million this morning. After which I think we could be looking at price rise to 3-4 pence tomorrow.

All the trades coming through at 2 pence are buys, 1 hour delayed.

I'm surprised with the amount of shares the MMs have bought today. They have bought 1.25 million shares today.

Did you check out the website Sue?

Where do you see resistance levels on the upside?

10day & 50day looking like a golden cross. A 50 day 200day cross should be completed in the next few days. That would be an exceptionally positive trading pattern.

Also high volume drives high volume. Likely to be momentum traders pushing up volume over next few days.

Major resistance level is at 4 pence otherwise nothing much in terms of resistance before. Apart from small resistance at 2.58 pence. So 4 pence is reachable.
Will post Investtech details tonight (will know for sure the resistance points).

In addition, I will have a look at the website tonight.

I'm quite sure that 4 pence is the major resistance point. The rise in late October got up to a mid-price of 4 pence. It was a quick and sharp rise so hardly any resistance points between 2-4 pence.

Treeshake with the bid price before close, buy orders to fill at 2.1 pence. Won't see the offer price come down.

Third one today now but each time the offer hasn't come down. Delayed buys at 2 pence still coming through.

Volume surpassed 10 million for the day, excellent!

200,000 buy at 2.05 pence just been reported. Delayed trades should continue coming until 5.30pm.

Excellent close at 1.8-2.1 pence. Thought the offer price wouldn't come down. We should be looking at 3-4 pence levels tomorrow. All indicators should be positive on today's close. Should even get a few press mentions if we are lucky.

Good buys coming through around 2.1 pence.

Press comment would be helpful. As I said before that turnover in excess of 20million, should provide scope for profits as margins improve going forward.

Rather than companies cancelling ad spend, an economic recovery generally, should increase investment in ad spend.

A current market cap of ~4million is surely too cheap.

From the market makers WINS have been the most aggresive ones taking this up. Do they know something?

Volume closed at 12,785,716 today. Just excellent. I do think very much that a rise to 3-4 pence level beckons tomorrow. With possibly the price peaking on Friday.

A note from previous trading statement,

"Current Trading and Prospects


The publishing division has emerged from the last two years as a leaner and more
focused business. As the media sector has improved both in the UK and the US,
the Company's publishing division has witnessed an increase in revenues.


The UK publishing division has in the first five months of the 2004 financial
year already sold more advertising space than in the whole of the 2003 financial
year.


An effective cost reduction process has now been implemented. The Directors now
look forward to a healthier future for the Group. The Directors consider that
the Group will be cash flow positive for the 12 month period to 31 December
2004."

Will post the Investtech updates tonight, won't be an update till later yet.

Evening thestatusquo.

From Investtech (based on today's close)

Neutral (Long term) - Jan 7, 2004
Has fallen 96% since the peak on 15 Jan 2001 at 51.50. Shows a strong development within a rising trend channel. A further positive development is indicated, and there is support against the floor of the trend channel. The stock has support at p 0.70 and resistance at p 4.00. Poor liquidity (traded 100% of the days, mean 1.77 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

----A further positive development is indicated, and there is support against the floor of the trend channel. The stock has support at p 0.70 and resistance at p 4.00.

----We could see the price rising quite heavily now tomorrow with nothing much in terms of resistance until 4 pence.

This mass exercising of options announced today could be the directors trying to hold on to protect their positions as any takeover would require atleast 90% approval if I'm correct.

Good Morning,

Price 2.15-2.3 pence now, looking very good.

Price 2.25-2.5 pence now.

Should be quite a few delayed buys to come through.

I have taken my profits at 2.15 pence for now, seems there is background selling going on. Offer price is coming down hence I have sold out.

Just bought back in at 2.11 pence. Price settled down now, all the profit takers have gone and some large buys starting to come through.

The 200,000 at 2.06 is a buy, appeared in sell column and had a good buy for 445,000 shares at 2.2 pence just been reported.

Delayed 150,000 buy at 2.19 pence just been reported.

MM buy coming at 2.15 pence.

Treeshaking exercise with the bid price.
Some information below:
An MM who is NOT the house broker is so aggressively accumulating stock in PMD and why the directors are deciding to exercise their options right now, up til now their holdings have frankly been pathetic.
Takeover possibly???

Price back up to 1.85-2.15 pence. Making another attempt to fill buy orders at 2.15 pence.

Another treeshake, just with the bid price again, something is being filled at 2.15 pence.

Bid price back up to 1.75 pence, price 1.75-2.15 pence now.

Hi Sue.
Just bought in at 2.046

Hi Graeme, Good decision.

As I gather since yesterday WINS on Level 2 have been accumalating stock and have been very aggressive. Reading between the lines WINS are very keen to obtain stock, they have been pushing this up for a couple of days, and have been buying stock off other MMs. Directors also have options on 7% of the company yesterday at 1.38p, when they could of taken the offer up. So you have to ask yourself a question, why did they do that, and why are WINS keen for stock. Do the directors know something, and are one of WINS clients going to make a bid for PMD, this is how WINS could be in the know...........

In addition, Whats also interesting is that WINS pushed the price up all day yesterday, and then after the bell we get an RNS, WINS are not the house broker, so where are they getting their information from ?

Interesting times ahead.

Price still 1.75-2.15 pence. Still looking good, chart + indicators positive.

Hi Sue, I bought in at 2.08 this morning after having watched all day yesterday - regreting not getting in sooner. Price hasn't moved today as you thought it might. Would you still expect to see big price moves in the near future?

Hi there, Yes I would very much think so. Look at my earlier posts today and yesterday. All the indicators are becoming positive now and there is even talk of a takeover now. Price was widened today hence it didn't rise after the initial rise this morning probably because WINS(one of the market makers) have been buying stock very heavily in the last two days. And if they kept the spread tight again that would have generated interest from more retail investors. Hence, they may be buying more stock again at these levels.
In the short term, I would expect the price to get past 3 pence and testing the resistance level at 4 pence.
Treeshaking with the bid price happened yesterday many times too so nothing to worry about their. Look at the offer price which stayed firm and was firm all day yesterday despite the bid price being lowered now and then. And then shooting back up.

Will post Investtech details tonight.

I did get back in myself mid-morning at a price of 2.11 pence.

Best Wishes,

Sue.

Sue, your comments are much appreciated. Any thoughts on the longer term?

This is an excellent stock for longer term prospects as in 2004 advertising spending should be increasing and their trading in US should improve too. But we should get a clear and better picture in March when their next set of results are out.
In the meantime, the company could be taken over by then.

Delayed buy reported just now for 172,413 shares at 2.03 pence.

Another good volume day. Total volume for the day closed at 7,510,165.

Evening all! Back to work today for me so missed all the action!

Volume looks very strong today again, buys still outnumbering sells.

Short term chart very positive. Volume high, 10day moving average moving up through 50 day which has turned up. Both should cross 200day in next few days, which itself is turning upwards.

Remember these technical points follow the fundamental position of the company. Debt reduced, non core assets sold off, cost cutting programme complete & working capital secured.

More sales completed in first 5 months of this financial year than ALL of last.

From Investtech:

Neutral (Medium term) - Jan 8, 2004
Has fallen 62% since the peak on 19 Jun 2002 at 4.75. Has broken through the floor of a rising trend channel. This indicates a slower rising rate at first, or the start of a more horizontal development. The stock has support at p 1.14. Poor liquidity (traded 100% of the days, mean 2.37 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

Slower rising rate at first--- that's what we saw today. Volume balance is very, very positive at the moment.

Thanks for your input thestatusquo.

MACD signals are rising too along with all the other indicators which is very good. MACD could move into positive territory tomorrow.
Hope the bid price gets corrected to around 2 pence at the open. If so, and the spread stays tight then volume should be even higher than today and we could get a wonderful rise tomorrow.

GoodNight all.

Price 1.9-2.15 pence, up 3.8% so far.

Delayed 94,792 buy reported at 2.05 pence.

Another treeshake with the bid-price. Staying firm, will continue to hold. Excellent short term gains to be made out of these yet.

Bid price going back up, price 1.85-2.1 pence now.

Now another treeshake with the bid price again. These actions are only occuring because one of the market makers WINS are and have been accumalating stock for the last three days.

Sue,

You should take care with this one....

I can get 500K shares (9.5K) at 0.0193 at the moment. Not the action of MMs accumalating stock.

Delayed 250,000 buy reported at 2 pence.

Hi there, that amount size has been like that since the initial rise from 1.35 pence. Nothing to worry about.

Just WINS are still bidding for stock.

Pre-market at 7.42am, a 500,000 buy was reported at 2.2 pence.

Sue,

I took this (day trading) tue thru thur and am now out.

On both days trades were being delayed and mis-reported (fairly classic MM). One of my tests is against NMS - all of which failed every time when asking for 5K+ during the time I held (so we'll have to agree to disagree on that one). One of my indicators to close out was the acceptance of a 10K test buy yesterday am (about 08:45).

I may be wrong of course and will keep an eye for further opportunities.

All the best Sue.

Thanks.

Do keep this stock on your monitor though. Hope to see u on this or other threads in the future.

Best Regards,

Sue.

Seems that they don't want any trading in these for now. Bid remains at 1.5 pence and offer price at 2 pence. Still a very good stock to hold.

Current spread 25%, just too much.

Slightly better now, price 1.6-2 pence.

Delayed 250,000 buy reported at 1.9 pence.

Wide spread may discourage sellers. It would certainly encourage me to hold!

The fundamental picture of increasing sales and decreasing losses gives real recovery hope.

This is another stock which has cut costs, put its house in order and is ready to rumble. Again any news of contract wins in an improving market will have a huge impact on this price.

Stock capped at under 5million, with turnover in excess of 20million.

Neutral (Long term) - Jan 9, 2004
Has fallen 96% since the peak on 15 Jan 2001 at 51.50. Is within a rising trend and continued advance within the current trend is indicated. On reactions back, there is support against the floor of the trend channel. The stock has support at p 0.70 and resistance at p 4.00. Poor liquidity (traded 100% of the days, mean 2.57 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

Volume was very high last week with price rising. Company should now be on a firm footing for growth.

The statusquo
what you say is undoubtedly true, but for the moment this share has been ramped, risen, the profit taken and the MM's have trapped as many holders as they can. Sue Helen can be found on other threads, she won't be back here !! IMO

I would say you're right chrismeakin1. I got out with a nice profit when things began to look iffy. I still feel I should say thanks to Sue Helen for all her efforts.

I still have my interests in here as I stated on Friday afternoon but I do have interests in other stocks which have scope for plenty of upside in the short term.

Bid price corrected to 1.7 pence, price 1.7-2.0 pence now.

One year linear trend, but not so good looking over the last three months. Still feel positive, Barclays have stuck by them. I have 29/03/04 for the interims, can anyone confirm this please.

C7

Undoubtedly ramping goes on on many of these boards, but for my own part I have no desire in creating artificial mini booms in share prices. I neither have the skill nor timing to get in and out as some would appear to have.

Dont be too harsh on Sue, she has a knack of searching out undervalued stocks and providing masses of relevant company information. Several days last week we traded over 10million shares, and whilst I'm sure Sue is very wealthy I don't think she moved that kind of volume or value. She's good, but she's not THAT good!

The recovery potential in this stock is huge although it is obviously a high risk play. Management have delivered in the past in better times & can again.

I certainly don't feel "sucked in," and if this stock delivers ANY positive news the price will rise significantly.

Wins were leading the bid on here again, stranger and stranger.

No doubt sales of the Rugby World Cup Book will have added to the bottom line for PMD over Christmas.

'ProgrammeMaster also published and distributed the five official matchday
programmes for The Football League showcase matches namely the Worthington Cup
Final, LDV Cup Final and the three divisional play-offs. It has recently been
awarded UK selling rights for the official IRB 2003 Rugby World Cup book.'

Directors bought shares today, altho they appeared to be at 1pence.

Convertible loan notes were also converted to shares. It should be noted as well that as part of the recent restructuring 2 directors invested 125k of personal money in the company.

The balance sheet should be in a position to move the company back to profitability.

Profile Media said director Martin Thorneycroft has bought 65,000 shares shares at a penny a piece, taking his holding to 195,000 or 0.05%

Neutral (Short term) - Jan 13, 2004
Has fallen 60% since the peak on 21 Oct 2003 at 4.10. Has broken the ceiling of the falling trend, which indicates a slower initial falling rate. The stock is testing the support at p 1.60. This should give a positive reaction, but a downward breakthrough of p 1.60 means a negative signal. Poor liquidity (traded 100% of the days, mean 2.63 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

These are looking good again. I bought 100,000 shares at 1.83 pence just now. The online buying limit was reduced to 100,000 shares. Price 1.70-1.95 pence, up 14.0% so far.

Price 1.75-1.95 pence now, up 15.6%.
Quite a few delayed buys may start to come through soon. Mine will be reported in an hour as well. Trades over 50,000 shares are delayed by an hour.

Delayed 100,000 buy reported at 1.75 pence.

Price 1.75-2.00 pence now.

Price 1.75-2.15 pence.

Delayed 500,000 buy reported at 1.85 pence.

Price 1.85-2.25 pence now, up 28.10%.

Delayed 100,000 buy reported at 1.83 pence (mine).

Delayed 100,000 buy reported at 1.85 pence.

Another delayed 100,000 buy reported at 1.83 pence - appeared in sell column.

Delayed 100,000 buy reported at 1.92 pence.

Delayed 100,000 buy reported at 1.95 pence.

Delayed 250,000 buy reported at 2.1 pence.

183,309 buy at 2.25 pence.

Bid price back at 1.8 pence, treeshake seems to be over.

Price 1.8-2.2 pence, up 25%. Offer price seems to be quite up on minimal buying.

Forecast for coming year :
agm 28-Jan-04
int results 29-Mar-04
prelim results 27-Nov-04
annual report 8-Dec-04

Wonder if news of a takeover situation or acquisition will be on the cards at the forthcoming AGM on the 28th January.

Delayed 100,000 buy reported at 2.05 pence.

Price very stable now at 1.8-2.2 pence. The decisive break past 2 pence should be forthcoming in the very near future.

Delayed buy for 91,443 shares reported at 2.16 pence.

Offer price has risen to 2.25 pence now.

Delayed 150,000 buy reported at 2.25 pence.

Can only buy 100,000 shares online at the moment with Comdirect. Has never been this low before.

Price closing at 1.8-2.25 pence, up 26.5%.

A very good close with some large buys going through. Takeover speculation could start increasing, as again today there was some kind of stakebuilding going on.
We should hopefully get the decisive break past 2 pence tomorrow which should take the price to much higher levels in the coming days.

Thanks for the info Sue.

Chart has bounced off moving averages to give a very interesting picture.

short term 10 day (red) has crossed rising blue 50day and rising black 200day average.

Volume as always will be key, but these are strong indicators of a positive picture emerging. A strong buy signal in my book.

Hi Sue
How's it looking today?

Hi there,

More stakebuilding going on.

Just had a 500,000 buy reported at 2.2 pence.

slightly drop today.

Not much signifance in the drop today. MMs were still offering 1.9 pence or slightly more on the quoted bids even with the offer price being at 1.8 pence. Slight drop in the offer price also but MMs had the online buy limit reduced to 100,000 again and one could sell 250,000 shares online. Spread was wide again which is the case when some stakebuilding activity is going at fixed prices, like the 500,000 buy at 2.2 pence. Spread is kept wide so the transaction could be put through. They do not want many buyers at the moment as they are holding stock for other purposes. Hence the wide spread.

Not much happening today

Volumes are very low at the moment. Should get some news at the AGM on the 28th of January.

Directors purchases make Financial Times listing today. They have injected significant amounts of capital into the company, showing a degree of confidence in the future.

AGM should be interesting.

1 million buy reported at 2.3 pence.

Continued activity in this stock is very encouraging. Worth a look for those interested in a pure recovery play with huge upside.

DYOR. In my opinion AGM is likely to signal increased sales and map out path to profits. Board have already said sales in first 5 months of fiscal 04 were higher than entire fiscal 03.

If positive comment comes from AGM this stock could double very quickly.

Some bulky trades coming through today.

Price has broken the significant 2 pence level. Currently 2-2.4 pence.

Very heavy buying today - doesn't seem ordinary retail investors.

Had another 1 million today at 2.4 to add to one yesterday with several 500,000 buys as well.

Next week should be very interesting.

Rising blue 50day moving average about to cross rising 200day moving average at 1.65pence in next few days. See chart above.

This is a "golden cross" and an indication that a growth trend is developing. This comes after short & medium term moving averages ended their downtrends & a consolidation period started.

This consolidation has now ended and a STRONG BUY SIGNAL is indicated by the GOLDEN CROSS.

This is backed up by the fundamental picture of increasing sales and unprofitable businesses sold off. Volume is also good.

I do hope you still hold these Sue!!!

Price spiked at 4pence previously, so a break-out would need to be around this level. Although in my opinion a mini-breakout will occur at 2.6pence.

These are STRONG BUY signals if volume is maintained.

Please DYOR. Great company website and loadsa info out there. Look at turnover in particular!!!!

Chunky buys at 2.4 pence & above today indicate private investors starting to get on board in larger numbers. A quarter penny rise in this stock is now only 10%.

10 million shares traded! I am currently in a buy & hold very tight position with this one.

If this company can still turnover anywhere near 20million and even squeeze a profit of 1million on that, then its prospective P/E falls to about 4.

All ifs & buts you might say? If you want certainty go buy GILTS! If you want potential, seek out companies that have ridden out very bad times and are now in much stronger financial shape.

IMHO PMD is one such company.

I million sold at 12.17pm at 2.5p dont look good

Serious momentum building in this stock now. Bad news of the past is all in the price. Any positve comment will drive this price significantly higher.

Look how strong the price rebound is from the January share issue. This is a STRONG BUY signal IMO.

I am holding in anticipation of further news at AGM.

Company has Intangible Assets of 20million on its balance sheet as well as significant cash. Its market value is still only 5million!!!!!!!!!!

Another good day! Good volume! Company still trading well below intrinsic value.

Neutral (Short term) - Jan 21, 2004
Has risen 117% since the bottom on 24 Dec 2003 at 1.15. Is within a rising trend and continued advance within the current trend is indicated. On reactions back, there is support against the floor of the trend channel. The stock has support at p 1.43. Poor liquidity (traded 100% of the days, mean 5.24 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

Market Cap is actually 10 million now, after this week's rises. Still very low though. Should be getting some very good news next week thestatusquo.

Thanks Sue. Can u confirm AGM date?

Directors buys cited in todays Shares Magazine. I think current interest in stock reflects upturn in media stocks.

Wednesday 28 January.

Bottom Triangle (20 Jan 2004) - A Bottom Triangle/Wedge is considered a potential long signal. It indicates a possible reversal of the current downtrend. This means the following depending on your current position in the stock:
If you already have a long position you may consider holding or accumulating.
If you already have a short position you may consider closing it out.
If you don't have a position you may consider taking a long position.
Click here to learn more.
Event confirmed with close price of 2.38p on 20 Jan 2004
Possible target price range is 4.70p - 5.30p
Volume at confirmation was 10,260,200
Pattern duration is 68 days
Inbound trend duration is 385 days

Thanks erenr. Your technical analysis confirms my view. I am holding.

ERENR where is that link for the bottom triangle/wedge. What is that? is it to do with the shape forming due to the share volumes and the uptrend?? Thanks

Volumes since fundraising have been significant. The direcotrs aren't the only ones stakebuilding.

Sorry cannot give you the link for that its a subscription only site so you wont get in,it refers to the shares patern as it was falling creating a wedge formation and as it gets to its narrowest point its broken out to the upside, thats my understanding of this complex formation i ued it for nsb retail at 17p and zi med at 10.5p seems to work a treat

Sue Helen. Hi!
Please see thread on SIP
Your thoughts please.
Regards

Some price retracement here, but golden cross of medium and long term moving average is confirmed.

IMHO this is a STRONG BUY signal, with further gains in this stock likely up to the resistance level of 4pence.

Fundamental factors such as next weeks AGM & any subsequent trading update may influence price.

A trading update at this weeks AGM would be nice!!

Some very massive buys today. A couple of 740,000 shares buys along with a couple of 280,000 shares buys.

All technical indicators show rising trend. More to come.

well how about that then!! biggest fall on the market in ages and up we go charts can be decieving but not this time what a result:o)

erenr! nice to see price continue uptrend indicated.

You will see from the chart above the golden cross I have been banging on about, where the blue 50 day rises through a rising 200day moving average.

This is a very positive technical indicator. IMHO a mini breakout to the upside is about to take place.

Mini breakout confirmed.

If 4pence broken then serious breakout ahead.

Hope ur still in Sue!!!

Hi, still here, been at university this week doing my exams, hence the lack of posts.

AGM was not actually this week, a date has to be still set.

Will post any developments.

Sue:

Take a look at warthog!!! what do u recommend. ps. Unis do not hold exams during January!!!

Sue,

Resistance at 4pence will be crucial, but this stock is now showing big technical indicators to the upside. Positive flag formations have brought the stock up to new levels. Flags form followed by short cosolidation periods - buying opportunities.

Volume is improving. Market cap still seriously undervalues intrinsic value of stock. If stock is tipped or reviewed it will fly.

Everywhere I read that the time is right to buy media stocks.

I would appreciate your technical input, when you have finished your mid-terms. I think this stock could be a star performer in 2004.

TSQ.

One other positive. All these price rises are after the financial restructuring.

Collectively, the market is saying, we like what you've done, company is on steady footing, go out and make profits in a recovering media/advertising market.

Long way to go but IMHO anyone buying in now has the chance of making money.
DYOR as always.

Neutral (Short term) - Jan 30, 2004
Has risen 154% since the bottom on 24 Dec 2003 at 1.15. Shows a strong development within a rising trend channel. A further positive development is indicated, and there is support against the floor of the trend channel. The stock has support at p 1.15 and resistance at p 4.10. The poor liquidity of the stock (traded 100% of the days, mean 8.59 mill per day) may weaken the analysis.

Hi Sue good to see your postings again. Please keep it up I apprciate your input. Thanks. Graeme.

prefab - 1 Feb'04 - 14:11 - 567 of 567


Very quiet on this thread over the weekend, is it possibly because most are somewhat mystified as to the reason for the share price gain in the last month? I don't claim to know why but here are a few pointers that perhaps should be taken into account.

1. 1st half trading (03-04) was greater than the entire 02-03 financial year, within their core business.

2. Believe it or not there is not that much stock freely available, the vast majority of the placement went straight to institutions as stated in the proposals for the placement.

3. Barclays clearly supports PMD and believes they turn back to profit sooner rather than later, supported by point 1 above.

4. The directors have stated that PMD will be cashflow positive this year after the reduction of their debt in the last half of last year, through the financial restructuring.

5. Someone is buying large lumps of stock on the open market and have been since the start of January therefore existing free float is getting smaller and smaller. Typically WINS have been leading the bid for stock with the occasional tree shake to scare out the 10%ers, friday being a prime example. 500k and 1m lumps consistently bought over the last 2 weeks, is that anyone on here?

6. The company has so far failed to comment on the +150% movement in it's share price in a relatively short space of time. Yet the directors were quick to set exercise prices for their options near the beginning of the rise. Perhaps they know something we don't ;-)

7. The advertising and publishing sector is enjoying an upturn in fortunes after 3 years in the doldrums.

I'm not one for conspiracy theories about MBOs and takeovers, this could just be punters buying in on the hope of a significant recovery in this sector, but too much stock has been traded in the last month and the rise too consistent for this to be a pump and dump exercise (in fact trade sizes have got significantly bigger as the price has risen, possibly indicative of a desire to fill a position quickly). One thing's for certain, we'll be the last to know on this thread. As long as the rise continues who cares, buy on rumour sell on fact. Be lucky.

vrodgers2,

Welcome to this board & thanks for your considered post. I had been beginning to think I was the only one thinking that something was going on here!

I have been building a stake over time and am not in the ramp and dump category.
I owned this stock several years ago at prices nearer 50pence, when like many other companies in the tech boom; PMd perhaps over-extended itself at just the wrong time.

In my view not so much a case of bad management but extremely bad luck timing wise.

The good news is this company is much leaner, meaner and even keener to create shareholder value. Management is very committed and the balance sheet should be robust now to take the company forward.

Barclays have shown confidence by taking equity, and the recovery in share price is only beginning.

TSQ

A turnover in excess of 20million and a company market cap of around 11million may also make it a tempting target now if any consolidation in the media sector were to take place.

I will certainly not be selling this stock until further news from the company.

thestatusquo

Thanks for your opening comment. However, I can't take credit for info. It was compiled and posted by "prefab" on advfn!

A pause for breath.

Any news on that AGM Sue?

No no date announced yet. Should be soon though with their results due in March.

Uptrend in price intact.

Trading in this financial year is well ahead of last year and should reflect in sales.

A trading update from the company would be welcome.

All technical indicators are very positive. Next key level is 4pence, a move to that level is now only a matter of time away.

Steady progress northwards today. Good volume again. Definite stakebuilding going on since start of January.

Dug a little deeper on this one & my confidence increases.

The share issue on Jan 2nd, in addition to an October sale of non-core assets, has essentially reduced PMD's bank & bond debt from 30million to only 3million. A MASSIVE reduction, I think you'll agree.

Barclays Bank, the companys' bankers, now own in the region of 20% of the Company. They have demonstrated confidence in converting money owed to them into equity.

Institutions took up over 2million worth of equity in the fundraising, they now own in the region of 60%.

The Directors own between 6-10% of the equity. All of this gives stability to the company.

Also as part of the recent restructuring, the Company has signalled its intention of commencing DIVIDEND payments in fiscal 2005. The Directors have skilfully re-positioned this company for growth, and I think the current share price upturn is only the beginning.

Hi

I've just join in this discussion, i've read thru, done some research and this company seem interesting to me. Am i to late to join in.

Not at all Joe!

I think there is a very long way to go!

Thanxs for the info mate! Since this company have the potential, i'll buy the shares since the offer price right nows is 3.35p (",)

Patience will be the key. This is a recovery play. The company has cut debt, sold off loss making businesses, cut costs, and issued new shares to improve its balance sheet.

The company is also re-organising its capital structure so that it can pay dividends when profits permit. This is unlikely to be until 2005, but the directors have committed themselves to delivering shareholder value.

I think you will agree, that the price recovery since January, must mean that more people than me are buying the stock!!

All this information is publicly available on this website. Simply go to the news section, type in PMD, and read for yourself.

4 pence price target will be a big key level.

Bit of profit taking today. It would be nice if shares you owned went up all the time but hey!

Moving averages will catch up. 4 pence still near term target.

Hi, I have sold out today having boughts these at 1.4 and 2.1 pence. Will still monitor these and buy back in towards their results in March.

Good luck Sue!

I am holding tight. The fundamentals of Profiles Media's remaining businesses are sound & on further reading of the mathematics of the recent financial restructuring, the balance sheet now looks more robust.

The recent rise is not a price spike, unlike the 4pence spike on news of disposals of loss making businesses.

Price may show some retracement, but IMO a longer term revaluation of this companys' prospects is taking place. Results in March should give a clearer picture.

Going like a train UP 20% @1:00pm

Now up 30%

Huge stake taken. 24% of company acquired on Feb 2-3. more infor to follow....

LONDON (AFX) - Profile Media Group PLC said Power Consultancy Ltd bought 95 mln shares on Feb 2-3, giving it a 24.89 pct stake in Profile Media.

Power Consultancy did not previously hold any shares in the company.

Major chart breakout. Major stake taken. Not only does it show confidence in Profiles' future, but this stock is now in SERIOUS BID play!

What do you think Sue? R u coming back on board for some more?

I bought another bucketload this afternoon. Volume is massive. There is bound to be some serious follow through next week when this news becomes more widely circulated.

That stake was taken with price in and around the 3pence level. Price still does not anywhere near reflect intrinsic value of this stock.

These shares were acquired on 2-3 Feb. Company wasn't notified until 6 Feb.

Can we assume these shares were acquired on the open market at around 3pence?
An investment of around 3million!!

This company did not previously own any shares, therefore was not an investor in the recent fundraising and open offer.

Could this be a vehicle to take over the Company? Anyone find any further info on the purchaser??

Sorry too much adrenaline!! But......

25% is a huge stake to take in such a small company? Any one else any thoughts?

I think 30% is needed before any takeover intention needs to be notified? Anyone correct me on this?

This is a huge confidence booster to the Directos & the Company that the recent restructuring has put the Company in a very strong position.

Hi thestatusquo, a 30% stake is required to make an offer. I did have twitches about a takeover when I first started this thread. However, I have all my funds invested heavily in African Gold for now as I am expecting February and March to be very good months for AFG.

My only concern is that the offer may not be more than 5-6 pence based on where the price has been over the last twelve months.

Good luck Sue with African Gold. I sincerely hope you do well. Gold stocks scare me at the minute! The gold rush reminds me of the dotcom rush.

Have a look again at PMD over the weekend. I would really appreciate your input, particularly if you find any follow up articles which might give room for further price improvement.

As I said in earlier posts, that 25% seems to have been acquired at 3pence. Price hasn't yet got that far ahead, so there could still be a good way to go yet.

TSQ.

SueHelen.Thanks for originally doing all the work on this.I have got my quickest 100% ever. 29 days. Thanks Graeme.

Well done Graeme!

Are you in for some more on a possible bid?

thestatusquo, Yes, Iam going through my porfolio this weekend to see whats asleep and not long term to find something to sell to raise funds for some more PMD on Monday.Unfortunatly I was out today other wise I would have acted today. Graeme. Bid or not I think this still has a way to go ...

Expect more info from the company regarding this latest 25% stake taken. It is much too big a stake for a first time investor not to have thought about.

a few possibilities here:

1) a long term sleeper investment, recognising the fact that PMD is hugely undervalued now

or

2) the beginning of a serious bid process.

3) a vehicle to take PMD private ( I think unlikely given recent fundraising etc)

4) a reverse takeover, a private limited company seeking a listing

The companys' financial position looks very sound at the moment, with debt payed down, and its balance sheet having in excess of 11million of Intangibles on it.

With the present low market cap, sales in excess of 20million, and current price doesn't reflect any profit prospects.

More to come...

News of new investment in Company produced a 33% lift in share price on Friday afternoon.

It will have brought the stock onto the radar & is likely to be followed up by renewed private investor buying.

Chart looks very positive since financial restructuring of the Company was completed.

A bid cannot be ruled out. Until the intentions of the new investor are known, price will have to reflect the potential of a bid.

A LOTS OF BUYS HALF AN HOUR BEFORE THE CLOSE,ONE BUY OF 1,000,000 ,WILL IT HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE OPENING TOMORROW MORNING?

Hard to say ateeq180, but that 1,000,000 buy at 3.95pence did catch my eye just before the close. 40,000 pounds worth of private investor money!!

Buys & sells pretty well balanced, but in my opinion many of the sellers are those who may have committed past finance to the company by way of bondholders who converted debt into shares. That kind of shake out doesn't bother me.

Price has stayed pretty robust. Interesting to watch for other late trades.

THANKS FOR YOUR EARLY REPLY THESTATUSQUO,YOUR POST ON THE 8TH OF FEB ALSO SEEMS TO BE A VALID COMMENT ABOUT A BID WHICH CANT BE RULED OUT. LETS HOPE FOR A BETTER NEWS IN THE NEAR FUTURE FOR PMD HOLDERS,I AM SURE SUE WILL ALSO HAVE SOME COMMENTS ON THIS COMPANY.

Volume still exceptionally strong, and chart looking positive on all key indicators.

The fundamentals aren't bad either. As stated in an earlier post, the Company will undertake a capital re-organisation this month, which will put it in a position where it can pay dividends again, as & when profits permit.

The company also owns the excellent franchise Programmemaster, which distributes sports publications. The Carling Cup Final coming up being one such revenue generating event for the company. (Incidentally it also distributes my monthly Arsenal magazine!!!)

Check out the company website , & subsidiary websites for Programmemaster and Profile Pursuit.http://www.profilemediagroup.co.uk

y it drop a lot today?

I think some profit taking is bound to occur. This share price has recovered strongly over the last month.

But IMO I think it still has some way to go up, and a bid for the company cannot be ruled out.

It's not very often a new investor walks into a company this small and buys 25% of it, without some intention of realising a profit on its investment!

Time will tell. But this investor only needs another 5% to trigger stockmarket rules on takeover intentions.

that I million trade was most likely a sell the bid was at 3.95 but never the offer hard to tell for sure,but a 2 day close above 4p could take us up towards 12p in MHO,

good luck everyone it,s hard for me not to take proffits as the big rise came while i was away snowboarding in Austria what a nice wellcome home ;o)

Whilst some profits may be taken, that purchase of 25% of Profile Media at 3pence is likely to be supportive of the price.

The Company may make a further announcement as to whether it is in discussions which may or may not lead to a bid for the company.

IMO any bid is likely to value the company at around 20-30million, giving the current share price some way to go.

LONDON (AFX) - The company secretary of AIM-listed publisher Profile Media
Group PLC, Robert Middlemiss, has resigned after the Financial Services
Authority fined him 15,000 stg for "market abuse".
The FSA said that in April 2002, Middlemiss became aware that PMG's revenues
were likely to be significantly below expectations. But before this news was
released to the market, he sold some of his own shareholding in the company to
avoid making a loss.
Following a May 2 2002 profit warning PMG's share price dropped from 14-1/2
pence to 4-3/4 pence.
By selling 70,000 PMG shares when he did, Middlemiss avoided a loss of 6,825
stg.
The case against Middlemiss is the first to be completed under the FSA's new
market abuse regime.
"We will not tolerate individuals using a position of trust for their own
personal financial gain," said Andrew Procter, the FSA's director of
enforcement.
"We have taken action in this case because of the seriousness with which we
view such abuses of position."
Procter also warned all market participants: "There should be no doubt that
we will pursue those who, on the basis of unpublished information, deal ahead of
announcements."
A spokesman for PMG told AFX News thatMiddlemiss resigned today.

Positive things can come out of events such as this.

Ordinary shareholders rely on honesty and openness in information handling. If this Company goes forward in a more shareholder friendly manner then we can all be winners.

Looking forward to more transparency from PMD to the thousands of patient long term investors in the Company who have stuck by it in some very lean and indeed traumatic times.

The Company owes shareholders that honesty and openness going forward.

A lot of private investor buying today. Buys outnumbering sells by 2:1

There is a story to unfold about the new investors 25% stake. Expect to hear more in due course.

It may just be a private investment company taking a stake, but its purchase must have been around 3pence, which should give the share price support.

Any increase in stake is bound to increase bid speculation.

According to hemscott power consultancy owns 21% yet the rns said 24% does this mean they have sold some already? also noticed over on advfn the chart has been highlighted by Tina 1 its tipped to go to 7p

There is a piece in todays Shares Mag, readers letters section (back page)which throws some light on the above.

The article states that there has been speculation that Power Consultancy, may have used Profile Media as a bidding vehicle in the recent takeover saga surrounding The Daily Telegraph newspaper group.

That would have been an awesome piece of business! Shares Mag goes on to say that Power Consultancy has sold down some of its stake, probably confirming hemscotts figures of it now holding 21% of the Company.

Shares Mag also states "it will carry a more detailed profile on Profile Media within the next few weeks."

If anyone can run the magnifying glass over a company, then Shares surely is the best. I look forward to that one!

The presence of a shareholder, of undeclared intentions, with 21% of PMD's equity, makes me wonder.

What next? Anyone any thoughts?

Price stabilising again. Moving averages will catch up, but all still looks positive.

this stock never strays away from its 10 day ma currently at 3.6p no mention of pmd in all the takover news surrounding the telegraph in todays papers

erenr, I have copied this from Shares Mag.

"A look at Profile Media

James Quinn replies:

Profiles significant new investor Power Consultancy gained its stake as part of the placing and open offer, but it was not disclosed until 6 February, and Mike Andrews is right to say that it should have been disclosed earlier.

The fault here seems to lie with Power Consultancy, not Profile Media. There has been speculation that Power Consultancy, which is linked to Nicholas Berry, lined up its stake ahead of Berrys potential bid for the Telegraph titles from Hollinger.

Berrys family sold the titles to Conrad Black in 1985, and there has been speculation that Berry wanted to use the Profile business to reverse the Telegraph titles into it.

But Power has been selling down some of its stake since it was announced, and so it would seem unlikely that he wants to use it for these ends. Small Shares will carry a more detailed profile on Profile Media within the next few weeks.

The above would lead me to believe that Profile Media stock is worth holding on to for further developments.

Power Consultancy Ltd would still appear to own between 75-80million of Profiles 380million shares.

Consolidation in the small company media sector adds more support for this stock going forward.

Small company M&A activity was announced in Peter Lays small cap review. With the popularity of 6 nations rugby and various football events, Profiles Programmemaster business should be doing very well.

It makes it look like a very valuable gemstone in PMD's treasure chest.

thestatusquo
Thanks your posts are very informative keep em coming,as a chartist i try not to get to involved with fundamentals but its not always that easy i have a short term target of 7p on this at the moment as indicated by the current chart config

goodluck

erenr,

Your 7pence target matches my fundamental analysis of fair value being somewhere in the 6-8pence region.

Given the companys sizeable turnover, vastly reduced cost base and increased sales, I think that price target is achievable soon.

The speculation surrounding the sizeable investment in the company adds much extra spice. The story about Telegraph newspapers has still to be played out over the next couple of months.

It may also be the case that Mr Berry, linked to Power Consultancy Ltd, has vast experience in the media sector, and may have other plans for Profile Media.

Tipped in this weekends Independent newspaper as vulnerable to a bid.

This is due to recent large shareholding acquired.

This is total speculation on my part, but Profile's business may be used to acquire other media titles which may come onto the market soon.

just done a search in the independent online nothing came up must have been just in the paper,the last story they cover was the 15k fine

AOL's weekend paper review had the article. Will try to get it for you.

thanks

allo allo some one just bought 19500 worth this could be the new entry point

erenr,

when you look at the rise from 1.2pence to 4 pence in the space of a month, it was obvious that profit taking would occur.

Given Shares Mag due to review the shares "within the next few weeks" as stated by them, then I think it is well worth holding onto these.

If the review is positve, eg reviewing it as a recovery play, then that could have serious price implications. Market cap is still very low, given sales turnover, and profitability potential.

My fair value remains 6-8pence for now.

well in my view its a share to be very long on its above its 50 day and 200 day ma it tracks its 10 day like glue its just stuck to it again,high risk high reward as the saying goes,

Would agree with that. I have built a position in this stock, in anticipation of both positive results and bid potential.

As you say, high risk, high reward.

seems like a few people are forgetting that these will be 7p soon!why bother selling at sub 4p all small sells though 100k or so keep an eye on the buys when they come in as they surely will I bet they are like 500k 750 k and such

IMHO DYOR

Opps.....Dodgy people!!!

Notable constant losers over five days include Profile Media, which has retreated 13.7% to 3p over five days. On 10 February the company secretary of the AIM-listed publisher, Robert Middlemiss, resigned after the Financial Services Authority fined him 15,000 for 'market abuse'.

It's just ticked up two MMs have raised there prices.

one MM has even bought some ,this could be the turning point some large buys went through yesterday after the close trades are decieving look like sells but are infact buys today for the bigger trades only smalll sells

L2
2 v 1 now next offer 3.3

Education please from rattyu and erenr - how do you pick up on th mm prices and trades. here alot about this but am totaly ignorant as to how you work it out from normal trades.....help please

Being watching this one and just jumped aboard at 3.15p.

kandrews250

Have you got Level 2?

The sale of the Telegraph newspaper titles still intrigues me.

Is Power Consultancy Ltd going to use Profile Media as an acquisition vehicle, to snap up titles??

okey dokey roll on!

this is it me thinks nice bounce off the 50 day ma,iminent chart looks very promising indeed , IMHO also rsi indicates a rally is due

looking at the results which came out this am nothing wrong there that i can see people must be waiting for the intrest rate decision before they pile in to PMD and and make the chart right :o) we do have a little mark up so i guess there are some delayed buys waiting to come in,

Will analyse the results at the weekend. They have come out earlier than I expected. I have no position in this stock at this moment in time.

I have posted the latest set of results in the thread header at the top.

Best Wishes.

Results seem positive, as regards future profitability.

I'm tempted to buy some more, because this stock is likely to be reviewed in next weeks Shares Mag, following its results publication. But then that is a gamble on a positive review?!

My only concern is that turnover from continuing operations is much lower than I had anticipated, around 3million. Whilst losses narrowed and profitability will be achieved in due course, the level of those profits on such a meagre turnover, may not sustain a market cap in excess of 10million, as is presently the case.

It is perhaps, that a bid premium is already in the price.

IMHO, this stock is probably going to level out for a period of consolidation until either merged or bought out by a larger company. It does not have funds to make acquisitions and would therefore be relying on purely organic growth. Does it have the means to increase turnover to say 10million in the next 3 years? I'm not sure.

I bought into this stock at 1,2,3 and 4pence, believing there to be serious bid potential. I have trimmed my holding to account for the fact that perhaps better penny share value is available elsewhere.

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT



I am pleased to present the interim results for the six months ended 30 June
2004.


As previously announced, the Group has changed its financial year end from 30
June to 31 December and therefore the following results incorporate a second set
of interim results for the six month period ended 30 June which, together with
the interims to 31 December 2003 previously announced, make up the results for
the 12 months ended 30 June 2004.


The results reflect the positive impact from the restructuring following the
bank debt to equity swap and the cancellation of the deferred shares and share
premium account which was concluded at the start of the year.


The results for the six months ended 30 June 2004 demonstrate the progress we
are making in returning the group to profitability. The results are in line
with my expectation as outlined in the previous interim statement on 4 March
2004. Compared with the same period last year the loss on ordinary activities
before exceptional items and amortisation has been reduced from #3,887,385 to
#640,554.


Financial Results - Overview


Turnover for the continuing businesses for the twelve months ended 30 June 2004
was #7,935,486 (2003: #8,704,133). The decline is due to withdrawal from loss
making contracts and the deferment of a major title, which will now fall into
the current period, at Profile Pursuit Inc (PPI).



It is pleasing to report that gross margins from continuing activities for the
six months to 30 June have continued to improve to 16.7%. This compares with a
gross margin of 13.1% for the previous six-month period and 15.4% for the 12
months to 30 June 2004.



We have continued to strive to bring the Group's operating base to an
appropriate and sustainable level. Consequently ongoing administrative expenses
have fallen to #1,130,463, a reduction of some 37% over the previous six-month
period. .



Losses from continuing operations before interest, depreciation and amortisation
of goodwill were #287,902 a reduction of 79% from the previous six-month period.




During the period additional charges relating to the disposal of Marketlink and
Woodgate, the Group's fulfilment businesses, were identified and have reduced
the previously reported gain by #484,506 to #1,242,598. This adjustment has led
to the restatement of the results to 31 December 2003 by the equivalent amount,
increasing the loss for that period to #2,409,767.



The loss attributable to shareholders for the six months ended 30 June 2004
including discontinued items was #1,083,952, compared to #2,409,767 in the
previous period.



During the period Commonwealth Business Publications ceased to trade and is
shown as a discontinued operation together with the fulfilment division.



Financial Results - By Division

Publishing - Custom and Contract



This division consists of the Profile Pursuit companies, which operate in the UK
and US. Revenue is generated mainly from the sale of advertising space in
controlled circulation publications.



During the six months under review the UK turnover improved by #732,000 as a
result of introducing new and more regular titles. Revenue, however, decreased
in the US by #2.04 million due primarily to a deferment of one title into the
following accounting period in comparison to the equivalent period last year.
Despite the reduction in revenue the US division produced a profit on ordinary
activities for the period.



Our UK division has recently been appointed to publish a quarterly magazine on
behalf of the National Bingo Game Association (NBGA) as from November. The
magazine will be distributed to one million players via the NBGA member clubs
and is expected to make a significant contribution to earnings next year.


Publishing - Other


The remainder of the Group's publishing activities comprises Hazleton and
ProgrammeMaster.



The operations of Hazelton and ProgrammeMaster have been merged successfully and
now trade under our subsidiary Profile Sports Media Limited (PSM). Since this
restructuring, which was completed at the start of the year, both operations
have achieved a significant improvement in their trading performance despite
difficult advertising markets. The Football League remains an important
customer and we retain contracts to publish the official Matchday Programmes for
their showcase finals. In addition PSM has recently won the contract to produce
the official Matchday Programme for the Welsh Rugby Union. The company is also
pleased to announce that it also recently won an important publishing contract
to produce the Matchday Programme, monthly magazine, yearbook and junior
members' magazine for Chelsea Football Club. The benefit of these contracts
will be reflected in the current period.


Current Trading


As outlined in my previous interim statement it appears the media sector is
showing gradual signs of recovery. Advertising budgets are cautiously improving
which is demonstrated by #4.03 million of forward contracted advertising orders
for publications due to be published after 1 July 2004 being some 34% higher
than at the equivalent date last year. The Group remains committed to
maintaining tight cost controls and seeks to introduce new titles and
initiatives when appropriate. With the effect of the introduction of the new
contracts and the continuing improvement of revenues I look forward to reporting
further improvement at the year end which will be for the 18 month period ending
31 December 2004.



I would like to thank shareholders for their continued support. Our employees
have continued to demonstrate their commitment throughout a difficult period.

Current Prices 1.50-1.60 pence....good buy at these prices.

whatkind of price expectation are you looking at here in the short term

Hi thesaurus, between 2.00-2.50 pence in the very short term.

Are you going on volume or news that might be coming out

I did buy and sell these back in January when the price went up to 4.00 pence from 1.40 pence. Results released couple of weeks ago, and these look very good value again at these prices with hardly any downside.

Just on buying volume and the chart thesaurus, the results have already been released.

The volume does not seem that impressive to be honest sue helen

The volume has always been like this thesaurus.

Look at the volume indicator in the main chart in the header post, that should give you a reflection and correlate that with the price movements.

Good buying reported from the open.....with the price up 6.45% at 1.55-1.75 pence.

Cant see a reason why pmd should'nt start going up.any comments? goal.

These have fallen back too much on market disinterest. These are very cheap now and hence I increased my holding at 1.20 pence today. Volume was flat in October but retail buying has started picking up this week again.

Personal Opinion.

The results announced in September were positive if you exclude discontinued operations. Based on Chairman's forecasts, easily worth 4p a share if not more!!
I think that they have shown a huge improvement in performance and with about 4m forward contracted business not in this set of accounts imho this company will be back in the black when the full year is reported.
I like this bit :

Current Trading

As outlined in my previous interim statement it appears the media sector is showing gradual signs of recovery. Advertising budgets are cautiously improving
which is demonstrated by #4.03 million of forward contracted advertising orders
For publications due to be published after 1 July 2004 being some 34% higher than at the equivalent date last year. The Group remains committed to maintaining tight cost controls and seeks to introduce new titles and
initiatives when appropriate. With the effect of the introduction of the new contracts and the continuing improvement of revenues I look forward to reporting
further improvement at the year end which will be for the 18 month period ending 31 December 2004.
I wonder if it is anything to do with the advertising for a number of well known football clubs via the club programmes which there were rumours of.Apparantly signed up with Chelsea.
Fits there profile or mission statement of specilising in advertising to captive audiences.
Or perhaps the Zee tv programme.The list goes on and there name seems to keep popping up.In time this could turn out to be a very good play indeed.
I also believe that the management have now shown that they are committed to reducing costs and earnings will benefit more in this period from the new contracts .. i.e Chelsea, Bingo Magazine(circulated to 1 million players)
Rugby etc.
PMD must be a very good take over target especially now with confirmation of recovery in the last results and the low share price , I wouldn't be surprised to see Power making a bid with there 25% of shares it wouldn't cost them very much to buy the next 4% to take control.
You dont put that sort of cash on the table with out expecting a big pay back . At the least they will have done a look more research than any of us
When i work out the valuation here and the improvement this company has made i can't understand why it has not moved much higher.
Trouble is there is nothing really sexy about it but sooner or later people will wake up to the fact that this is gonna be in profit by year end. How many other small caps can say the same.

Was that your 1M at 1.2 SH

Serious mate , what difference does it make whose it was ????

Independent Newspaper (16.10.04) on Interims. on page ten of the save and spend section :

Private investor Derek Pain in the Saturday Independent noted that reduced losses at Profile Media (PMD.L) provide hope that it is at last on the recovery road. He reviews the restructuring and adds that it looks as though the medicine is starting to work. Chairman John Webber is moderately optimistic and talked of contracted advertising revenue in the current six months being 34% than at the same time last year. All Mr Pain is hoping for now is that the Webber team returns the Group to somewhere near its high-profile past. The shares are unchanged from Fridays close at 1.48p.

Morning Sue, I am in this one too. Good luck to all holders. xm

God, i jumped on time, now moving up!!!

Prospects :

The Chairman would not say such emotive things as... "With the effect of the introduction of the new contracts and the continuing improvement of revenues I look forward to reporting
further improvement at the year end...." unless he was pretty confident of achieving them.
Also, having signed up Chelsea FC this season, (who are undergoing a complete rebranding to remove all previous traces of Ken Bates !) I suspect that if they do a good job here (and they can't afford not to) then more of the same will follow, which would indeed make it an interesting target once more.

I am also a great fan of their Programme Master subsidiary, which I am registered with and buy sports programmes from. Anybody who is interested in old soccer/rugby/etc progs or new and full season sets should have a look at the site. this is an arm of PMD which makes the most money by far I believe.

In yesterday's Independent Newspaper.

Blues hunt the black: Chelsea to stand on its own 22 feet
Peter Kenyon tells Abigail Townsend about the end of Village life and the drive for profits
14 November 2004


Chelsea, the London football club owned by Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, is to be overhauled as it strives to move into the black by 2005.

Its chief executive, Peter Kenyon, formerly the head man at Manchester United, has introduced a new club badge and is changing the company's name back to Chelsea Football Club from Chelsea Village.

The name was created by the former chairman, Ken Bates, who developed a leisure complex consisting of two hotels and various restaurants, as well as a nightclub and fitness centre, at the club's Stamford Bridge home in west London.

Mr Kenyon, however, wants the club - which has not won the League for 49 years - to move away from leisure and back towards being a more football-centred business.

He is reviewing the future of the complex and is in talks with a number of operators about taking over the running of the non-football businesses.

It is believed that Hilton and Marriott are both in discussions about operating the hotels, while fish-and-chip-shop chain Harry Ramsden's could come in to run at least one of the restaurants. Catering giant Compass has also been bought in to advise on concourse and catering facilities.

In addition, talks are progressing to find a new sponsor for the club, which has spent around 200m on new players since Mr Abramovich bought the debt-ridden business last year for an estimated 60m.

The main contenders are believed to be electronics giant Sony, and mobile phone companies T-Mobile and mmO2. Orange, the current official mobile network of the club, is not thought to be in the running, however.

The club's 20m, four-year deal with current shirt sponsor, Emirates, comes to an end this season, with the airline moving to rivals Arsenal to sponsor both its shirts and its new ground. It is understood that Chelsea is hoping to secure a new deal for up to 9m a year, though Mr Kenyon has ruled out naming the stadium after the sponsor.

"I don't think it's appropriate for Chelsea, and it's not a revenue stream that we expect to get into," he said.

Mr Kenyon is confident he will be able to match profits at Manchester United, the world's most profitable football club, by growing revenues by 10 per cent per annum. Man U reported revenues of 169m for the year to July 2004, while operating profits came in at over 29m.

"We know that a football club run properly can be profitable," he said. "We want to be the number one club in Europe, on and off the field. It's about ensuring that we're more professionally run and profitable. Today we're not profitable - we will be within five years."

He denied that Mr Abramovich was scaling back his financial support, however, despite admitting that scope for transfer fees had been built into the budget. So far, Mr Abramovich has bankrolled the acquisition of new players.

"I don't think it's prudent today to run a football club on the basis of a benefactor. Part of our job is to leave it in good shape and good shape means self-sufficient. There are too many examples of clubs running themselves inefficiently and getting themselves into trouble.

"Roman will continue to invest so I'm not concerned about that at all, but our job is to make ourselves successful and start repaying that investment."

As part of the push towards profitability, the club will try to increase its membership base from 40,000 to more than 100,000 globally in the next three years. Target markets are China and North America, though the US has proved a tough market for English clubs to crack. Man U has been trying for several years with only limited success.

---Chelsea trying to increase membership substantially is good news for Profile Media as there would be more readers and more copies to make of the Chelsea Magazine = equals more money coming in for Profile Media = more PROFIT.

Skew Bands - indicate price direction.

The skew bands have made an even bigger leap north today indicating the price is about to surge higher. I would suspect the price will start rising again tomorrow and as Level 2 suggest the other MMs besides WINS are on 1.50 pence on the offer hence 1.50 pence on the offer can come quite quickly.

The Skew Bands can be seen in action on the Daily Pro Chart under Charts on ADVFN.

History : when the skew bands are rising like they are the price has followed up with big leaps as well. See the six months and 1 year chart.

Skew Bands were introduced to myself by a poster called Dusseldorf on ADVFN...he pointed them out on the WHOG thread when the price was at the 0.35 pence levels and the skew bands were making the same leaps up which followed by the price rising by 500%.

Definite double bottom formation made today with the mid closing at 1.25 pence.

If the price starts rising tomorrow with high volume then it signals a new direction for the stock so in PMD's case from a falling trend into a rising trend.

I think anyone looking at coming aboard should read the AFX below to see what a turnaround the company has done.

http://www.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&cb=1100560987&article=8891634&symbol=LSE%3APMD

Today :

L2 did not change all day and closed positive at 2 v 1.

Activity in the background happening maybe :

No large trade again today...a large sell would not take this long, a large buy would.

Correct distinction at close ;

Buys = 439,163
Sells = 583,755.

The indicative spread closed at 1.20-1.30 pence though the online prices were 1.20-1.24 pence all day.

" The other big attraction at this now tiny - and still very risky - company is takeover activity. Grange Nominees, rumoured to be a vehicle of a keen City player, recently picked up 24.9% of the company. If Profile makes noises about making profits, corporate manoeuvres could ensue."

------Can't help thinking that some corporate activity could be happening in the background. Power Consultancy holding a 25% stake and the price at its year low and WINS who are on the market makers trying to keep a lid on the price. In addition, the company have started making noises about profits in the Interims released in September.

Figures :

Thanks to chestnuts on ADVFN :

As for turnover the H2 for 2003 was roughly 6m new business and the H1 turn over for 05 was roughly 5.5m and expected turnover for this H2 05 is expected to bae around 7m bringing them profitable.
And next yr they could make a reasonable profit of 1m will give them a share price of about 8p i personaly don't want a take over, but what i think might happen is MBO at a knocked down price.

Bouncing from support at the moment :

1.25-1.35 pence...up on the bid and offer. Some activity brewing....4 * 250K buys have come through all together in the last 30minutes.

Think there's another biggish buy lurking in background before we move next step up.

It's pretty obvious that if you can buy 750k at mid online, then marketmakers clearly have a seller of several million shares.

If you see a T trade at close today, it will be a sell to roughly match retail buys.

DYOR, IMO etc.

Dont listen to that prick DELL deramps all day on here and ADVFN

Shame some negative posters weren't here in January when a few of us on MoneyAM made a 200% profit on these in January.

A post from the PMD thread on ADVFN :

It really makes me laugh when i see people come on the thread and they then run away all scared after reading some negative comments about the company.

Pmd have forward contracted ad revenue of 4.5 m which is paid up front and will fall into the next set of accounts.Yes that is 4.5m already in the bank and is without the benefit of other contracts that they ,may or may not win.

Why do these people think its trading at 1.3p for.Because its been forgotten or been missed by the market.No its this price for gods sake because it is risky.But if it is making a recovery then you will be rewarded by the substantial upside from here.
I just wish some people would stick to the FTSE 100 and collect 6% a year or whatever.

We have a large buyer about as Charlesstuart posted on the PMD thread on ADVFN the other day that someone he knows has bought 2.25 million shares so far in PMD in the last few days in 250K chunks.

The price has started rising after the double bottom formation at 1.25 mid-price.....it signals a new direction for the stock so in PMD's case from a falling trend into a rising trend.

Trades :

Correct distinction today :

Buys = 1,387,547
Sells = 30,000.

Can anyone else besides Sue see the double bottom at 1.25p or am I that blind I need a trip to Specsavers.

A simple yes or no will do.

Cheers

I DO!!

1.25-1.40 pence, up on the offer.

lol xmortal , post the chart showing it then.

MMs showing a large spread on the screen prices....though online spread is 1.26-1.32 pence.

MMs showing a large spread is only because a large buyer is lurking about.

300,000 and 150,000 buys have come through at 1.32 pence.

More lies from Sue!

You can still buy 750k blocks at midprice online, which suggests that there is still a large sale going through...

dell

All IMO, DYOR

Gonna have to do better than that dell,gettin a bit boring now btw a BIG buy is goin through and you know it,he trying to deramp to get the buyer cheap shares but loooooooooooooooooosing badly

As Dell says ... try it for yourself.

Have enough all ready,just look at the trades all buys goin through as sells to give a false market

So why knock Dell if you agree that you can buy blocks of 750K online at the mid price ?

Looks to me they have a willing seller not a buyer.

... but I aint got a pair of those rose tinted specs like Sue and her aliases

snip,
you`re spot on there, as mine were down as sells but were buys!!!

How the fcuk do you idiots come to the conclusion that when the indicative price is 1.25-1.40 and you can buy 750k online at the mid price but sells are going through lower than the mid price that a big buyer is lurking ???

Lying tw*ts.

Correct Distinction at Close :

Buys = 568,763
Sells = 247,420.

Indicative Price opened at 1.25-1.35 pence and closed at 1.25-1.40 pence, online prices opened at 1.26-1.29 pence and closed at 1.275-1.325 pence.

Level 2 closed positive at 2 v 1.

Roll on next week.

From a poster called qut on the PMD thread on ADVFN :

dell314 won't answer certain questions and the question re Power's stake is one of them + Nigel Wray's stake of 8.63%. Does anyone really believe that dear dell knows more about PMD's prospects than Power Consultancy and one of the most respected investors, Nigel Wray. They wouldn't have bought so many shares on a pure whim. Come off it dell, what on earth do you take us for?

From a poster called jscapper on the PMD thread on iii :

The poster dell314 is working for the other side and has been given an agenda to deramp this share. He has been shown for what he is on another BB by people much clever than he is. He has cost people money with his muttering so I say to you all "pay no attention to this payed intrusion on your board"

20 x 250K blocks of trades since the 10th November. Plus the 6M amd a couple of 1M trades and thats the only ones we know about. Something is brewing and some are in the know.

dell314 is nicely summed up in the below post by a poster called dusseldorf on ADVFN :



Dusseldorf - 22 Sep'04 - 16:55 - 1853 of 2060


bishopawn - don't be offended by dell, just think of him as an old village policeman who tells you off for playing your music loud when its gone 9pm. He's there to make sure that parties don't get out of hand and has a habit of believing every word people say on here as gospel (when we all know that every now and then we may post a comment that is some-what 'embelished'/'a long shot').

He can be found lurking on many threads and pops up at the most suprising times, though recently he has taken to only pointing out the negative aspects of other peoples comments and rarely joins in any constructive conversation on why movements are occuring.

it really really amazes me that Dell and dil-do follow Sue everywhere she goes, always like a tick that wont come off. They don't even create interesting threads or suggest any shares to buy. Dil, especially is a SAD individual, always insulting people. You both think you are the guardian angels of investors, don't you? Sue trashes you both time after time and you wont learn.

xmortal - it may have something to do with the fact that Sue is a proven liar.

-She has been caught inventing level2 data(her pal, john50, seemed to think this was OK!).
-She has regularly denied being the poster optimist23 on ADVFN, yet their posts are identical.
-You and Sue claimed to have read the QTR news page on their korean website, which happened to be in Korean!!
etc.

Sue usually has no knowledge of any of the financials in the companies that she promotes but relies on lies and disinformation.

Have a read of my post about PMD on iii, that is answering an earlier post by Sue, for some good examples:

The interim results actually show losses for both continuing and discontinued operations. The only "forecasts" from the chairman appears to be a comment on forward contracted advertising orders and a comment that he looks forward to "reporting further improvement".

As the company is currently technically insolvent(i.e. unable to pay its liabilities, as they fall due), it would be difficult to announce considerably worse results, wouldn't it??
I find your valuation of 4p per share totally ludicrous, as you have given no indication of how you arrived at this figure and I've never seen any post of yours which demonstrates that you have any idea how to evaluate a company from any of its financial information.


I think that they have shown a huge improvement in performance and with about 4m forward contracted business not in this set of accounts imho this company will be back in the black when the full year is reported.

This statement is also rubbish. The report actually says that the 4.03mln of forward contracted advertising orders is around 34% higher than the position last year, it does NOT state that there is 4.03mln of additional revenue.


When i work out the valuation here and the improvement this company has made i can't understand why it has not moved much higher.

Err, excuse me, but you haven't actually worked out a valuation. you've simply pulled a number out of thin air, with absolutely no justification for it.

Are you aware that from the last interims, PMD has net current liabilities of 4.9mln??


Are you aware that net tangible assets are negative by over 5mln??

Are you aware that this company is scheduled to repay its overdraft on 28th Feb 2005, and is unlikely to have funds to do so??

Are you aware that if they hadn't extended their year end date, I don't see any way that they could have got their annual accounts signed off as a going concern without auditor qualification??

Can I suggest that you actually do some research....

Seconded.

Thanks to barnetpeter on advfn :

The comments here are just plain daft. Yes we know this is a very risky punt and that it has debt. But that is why it is a penny stock traded on Aim. Ashtead (AHT) had far bigger problems and hit 2p at one time. It is now approx 80p and rising. ASC was very nearly at the wall when I bought at 3.5p. Got in some cash and has never looked back. Hit 90p plus this week. Oh and I still hold 200,000 of the original shares I bought. If you want 30 baggers you have to take a big risk! You only need one. Otherwise, keep your cash in the building society. No moans from me if this goes broke.

If PMD can survive, trade its way into profit then it has a real chance. It has a solid business.

Current Trading

As outlined in my previous interim statement it appears the media sector is
showing gradual signs of recovery. Advertising budgets are cautiously improving which is demonstrated by #4.03 million of forward contracted advertising orders for publications due to be published after 1 July 2004 being some 34% higher than at the equivalent date last year. The Group remains committed to maintaining tight cost controls and seeks to introduce new titles and initiatives when appropriate. With the effect of the introduction of the new contracts and the continuing improvement of revenues I look forward to reporting further improvement at the year end which will be for the 18 month period ending 31 December 2004.

As Sue thinks you are all interested in posts from AFN, here's my response to Barnetpeter:

dell314 - 20 Nov'04 - 12:44 - 3942 of 3943 edit

barnetpeter - It always makes me laugh when people compare their stocks to other unrelated stocks, with no detailed explanation of why they think parallels can be drawn.
Funnily enough they always seem to compare their stocks to ones that have subsequently done rather well(I've lost count of the number of times, I've seen dogstocks compared to Yoomedia!!).

Why not compare PMD to IREV or BLA??
Their share prices plunged to lowly levels and then they went bust.

Yes, these are totally irrelevant but then so are your daft observations...


I note that Sue has been unable to deny that her original post contained false and misleading information.....

Rgds

dell314 seems to make out that he has a lot of knowledge of balance sheets and then one has to ask why the stocks he was ramping et all AGT and MT. have gone bust.

From a poster called jscapper on ADVFN :

I have not seen a poster so desperate to stop people investing than dell314 in a long time. Ask yourself, why? He is not a holder and works for the MM's. Big movement must be just days away.

barnetpeter's reply in response to dell314's post :

barnetpeter - 20 Nov'04 - 13:58 - 3951 of 3951


Dell, I say above - "this is a very risky punt and it has debt. But that is why it is a penny stock traded on Aim". Very risky punt sums it up nicely I would think?

What are you looking for me or others to say? That after your posts, we have all seen the light?

This is a penny punt. There are plenty of them around and some will make it and others will not. Almost ALL have debt. It is not a FTSE 350 company or above 5om cap and you cannot easily short it in the UK. Geddit yet Dell?

My advice is to ignore prat posters like Dell. Even if they are right occassionally, those who regularly deramp penny shares are jokers who have often lost heavily themselves in the past.

All of the below (in quote marks) will be in the next set of results, they've won a good few contracts this year, including ZeeTV, Chelsea (ZeeTV has a mass audience and Chelsea as the Independent article pointed out are trying to more than double their membership, especially in the US, PMD are good in the US :

"The operations of Hazelton and ProgrammeMaster have been merged successfully and now trade under our subsidiary Profile Sports Media Limited (PSM). Since this
restructuring, which was completed at the start of the year, both operations
have achieved a significant improvement in their trading performance despite
difficult advertising markets. The Football League remains an important
customer and we retain contracts to publish the official Matchday Programmes for
their showcase finals. In addition PSM has recently won the contract to produce
the official Matchday Programme for the Welsh Rugby Union. The company is also
pleased to announce that it also recently won an important publishing contract
to produce the Matchday Programme, monthly magazine, yearbook and junior
members' magazine for Chelsea Football Club. The benefit of these contracts
will be reflected in the current period".

The importance of the Chelsea contract and the potential :

Chelsea Football Club have confirmed that they are transferring the responsibility for publishing all their magazines and programmes to Profile Media Group. The contract includes the monthly fanzine (Chelsea Magazine), a monthly juniors club magazine (Bridge Kids), the matchday football programmes and the Chelsea Yearbook. Chelsea Magazine is expected to deliver over 50,000 members every month and will have an additional 25,000 distribution at retail on the first issue. This will also have a limited overseas circulation.

Expectations are high at Chelsea Football Club for the 2005 Centenary season. Success is the new watchword throughout the club; be it the performance of the 1st team or the publishers of the club's programmes. Eddie Taylor, the Head of Sports Publishing at Profile Media Group, said "We are delighted to be working with Chelsea on their entire publishing portfolio. Jose's team are committed to playing exciting football, and we in turn are committed to delivering a quality, collectible series of publications designed to entertain and inform the fans."



Julian Scriven, Marketing Director for Profile said "This is a real top end audience - Chelsea delivers the highest demographic of any team in the Premiership - 75% of Season ticket holders are ABC1 and a third earn over 50k per annum. The real opportunity for any advertiser however, is brand association. Chelsea Football Club is synonymous with excitement, glamour and success. These are messages premium brands will want to connect with. Whilst individual opportunities are available, some advertisers are buying across the portfolio for the season to maximise the association.

And we all know Chelsea love splashing cash out.... = good money being paid in return to PMD.

After all, they wrote 16 million off by sacking Adrain Mutu just recently.

Money is no object to them...they are after the publicty and become a global brand like Manchester United.

Check out the below website to see the many publications PMD have produced this year, most of it will reflected in the next set of results.

Comment by a poster called Chestnuts on ADVFN :

Afternoon all
Lolsrus i have asked PMD if they Power have a director on the board and they say not and i have asked if they have had contact and they also say not,
We all know PMD is a risky business but look at the potential at what they could turn into.
We know they do a good job
We know about Chelsea contract but i feel they won't stop there but go for all the premier ship and even the european football clubs sky is the limits on this one, and as Barnet Peter says you have to speculate to accumalate, if they send a RSN about either gaining Arsenal or even Man Utd the share price will rocket i can see the potential and so can powerconsultancy and so can Barclays.
And the chart pattern is very distintive and common pattern and will rise back upto 4p but i don't think it will happen over night but by next April it could well be.
Dell314 we have had several discussions with you in the last month or so and answed all your questions your aggender is only to drive the share price down to either buy in your self or for somebody like power to collect shares on the way.

Every time Dell post something worth reading you make sure you make 20 tripe posts so his disappear.

What were the margins on "The Autumn Series" prints ramper , they were given away for nothing so I doubt the WRU paid little more than peanuts to PMD.


Ramp , ramp , ramp

And if you want a quote from Barnetpeter he also said Sue:


"barnetpeter - 16 Nov'04 - 23:52 - 3510 of 4017


O do shut up Optimist. We all hold PMD here already. If you want to ramp, at least do it to non-holders. Remember you need to give them a good logical reason - how about "its gonna fly"? "

Thanks Sue, very informative as always, please keep up with the good work.

Zee TV's reign amongst the viewers = more good news for PMD.



Since it's UK launch in 1995, Zee TV has been totally committed to broadcasting quality programming for South Asian viewers, who up until then, had never been witness to such a wide variety of dramas, comedies, news bulletins, documentaries or Bollywood blockbuster movies.

Zee's repertoire of programmes has continued to grow from strength to strength, offering viewers programming content that caters to the needs of all generations and for the whole family to enjoy! With Zee's ever-growing line-up of top class programming, the channel has become a benchmark for the competing satellite channels that have followed.

Now, over seven years later, Zee still reigns supreme and remains the number one channel in the UK and Europe with over a million viewers. Today the Zee Network in the UK is the largest Asian television network with four amazing channels - Zee TV, Zee Music, Zee Cinema and Alpha Punjabi.

No other Asian television network offers viewers such a vast range of entertaining programmes. It's hardly surprising that as years go by more and more viewers join the ever increasing family of Zee.

http://www.zeetv.co.uk/

With PMD's presence in the US...ZeeTV have taken giant leaps in the US and Chelsea want to follow suit as well.



ZEE TV USA:

Zee network has grown to form a fully integrated enterprise forming the largest bouquet of 24/7 television channels in south Asian languages worldwide. The first choice of 225 millions of south Asians in over 84 countries across the globe is part of the Zee network worldwide.

Since July 15th, 1998, when Zee TV started its operations in the USA, it has come a long way. Already the numero uno among the non-Hispanic ethnic television channels in terms of paying subscribers in the USA, Zee has become synonymous with South Asian entertainment for over a million south Asians in USA, Canada and Caribbean.

Sensing the growing demand and taking a bold initiative that - Zee Gold - the first 24/7 South Asian movies and music channel in the USA - was launched on December 15th, 1999. Built around the biggest draw for a south Asian, the movies Zee Gold brought the largest privately held South Asian movie library from the subcontinent to the living rooms of subscribers in the USA. The most exhaustive experience of south Asian movies, from old black and white classics to the very latest blockbusters from India and Pakistan gave the subscribers the most comprehensive viewing feast to a movie buff. Also brought to you were the events like Zee Cine Awards, Zee Sangeet Awards and the Zee Gold Bollywood Awards coupled with Music programs and telezenes from all over the world.

Zee Cinema in the USA

The largest 24/7 south Asian movie television channel is coming to the USA. Zee Cinema is the first pay channel in India in 1995. After already being a mega success in South Asia, Europe and Africa is now coming to win the south Asian hearts here. The product is designed to enhance and enrich the viewing experience of the subscribers. Exemplified by its motto 'Movies, Masti and Magic,' Zee Cinema boasts a range of movie fare commiserate with the largest privately held movie library in south Asian languages. From rare black and white classics to the very latest blockbusters, Zee Cinema is aimed at delivering the most comprehensive and stimulating south Asian movie experience in the South Asian homes in the USA.

Delivering the earlier promise of 6 movies a day, Zee Cinema goes a step ahead and airs 7 movies per day on the weekend. Zee Cinema establishes its superiority over other channels in the genre with its vast library of the network that can promise and consistently deliver a promise of 44 movies every week.

With six films a day on weekdays and seven films a day on weekends and many film-based programs Zee Cinema provides its viewers unadulterated glimpse of Bollywood everyday on their favorite movie channel making it a complete movie channel for all sections of the audience.

Global Beam

One of the primary reasons for Zee Network turning out to be a global success and in a little over a decade has been an unceasing quest for improvement. Be it breaking into new genres or value adding the product for a more exhaustive experience the network has always treated the business like a airplane which flies on its onward velocity. It was for this reason that the channel invested in getting the news feeds directly from India, in 3 different Indian languages, every day and via satellites. It was for this reason that the channel invested in global properties like Cine Awards, Music Awards and live cricket from all over the world. It is for this reason that Gurbani is aired on Zee TV live everyday through a satellite link from Harminder Sahib, Amritsar, Punjab.

Global beam of Zee TV is the next mega-step in product enrichment from the network. The Global beam enriches the channel experience by making its content contemporary. Furthermore its viewers are able to get late breaking news on an as it happens basis. The viewing experience is standardized and no matter which part of world you are, you will never miss another episode of your favorite soap/program again!! not to mention that the broadcast of programs in the US will never be subject logistical problem of tape delivery etc.

ZeeTV was launched first since others have followed in the last eighteen months:

xmortal - It looks like your pal Sue isn't quite as confident as she makes out...

Have a look at this old post from Sue(a.k.a. optimist23) and today's tradelist and see if you can spot the coincidence:


Optimist23 - 12 Nov'04 - 09:12 - 3146 of 4100

Just bought 148,549 shares at 1.20 pence

Trading Type: At Best

The transaction was completed successfully. You will shortly receive a contract note in your secure message Inbox. Your Portfolio, Dealing History and Statement have been updated.

Stock: Profile Media Grp Ordinary 0.01p
Transaction type: Buy

Stamp Duty: GBP 8.91
PTM Levy: GBP 0.00
Settlement Value: GBP 1,804.00
Transaction Reference: 1614443900

Incidentally, Sue's sale appears to have knocked the maximum online sell quantity down to only 75k. Funnily enough, you can now buy 750k chunks at 1.3p(Yes, BELOW MID!!). That must be a fair old overhang!

Are you feeling lucky??

PMD Shareholders celebrating in the near future :



dell314 and other stalkers cracking up after getting the boot from his MM job after failing to stamp his authority and leaking that something good is happening in the background in PMD :



I see dell314 is using another permutation today to aid his deramping.

From a poster called qut on the PMD thread on ADVFN :

dell314 - you don't like the company, you don't like the abuse, you don't have a financial interest in the company; what are you doing here??????

That 125,000 thats just gone through at 1.25p .... looks like a delayed buy from six months ago.

What do you think Dell ?

Dil - LOL!

Have you been keeping up with the ADVFN PMD thread?

Optimist(a.k.a.Sue helen) has been trying to deny that that 148,549 sale was hers, even suggesting that I am a marketmaker and I put through that exact trade quantity to try and kid everyone.

Funnily enough, both of Sue's declared purchases for her new ramp, BSP, went through one minute after the PMD sell.

What a lot of coincidences!!

PMSL!!

Rgds
dell

Lol , it could be anyones Dell , everone buys in lots of 148,549 these days.

Just read it Dell .... it seems that the masses are finally waking up to SueHelen / Opti.

About time too.

I`d like to think that a value in excess of 2p could be accredited to PMD, especially as I bought at 15p and would love to see a return on what I always thought was a decent investment!!

Right all along...250K buyer is back...a large buyer is about hence the price has been stuck 3* 250K buys reported again so far today...where's the big sell dell314...six trading days and waiting...Liar he'll never come back to that permutation now.

Wonder what new permutation will dell314 use now to assist him with his deramping.

Aint doing anything for the price so the sellers must have shedloads to shift.

Another 250K buy comes through...4 * 250K buys in the last hour.

1.30-1.35 pence, up on the bid.

Sue - LOL!

Catching you denying your obvious sell yesterday was absolutely hilarious.

FWIW, you can still buy 750k chunks at or below mid, so there appears to be some interesting MM gamesmanship going on IMO.
These moves appear to have restarted the buying, which I'm guessing is the aim..

Rgds

DYOR IMO etc.

Yeah whatever dell314....just seen you appear on ADVFN as well....trying desperately to deramp these. I have never seen such a sad person in my life.

Have you run out of permutations now dell314 hence you asking me to buy a mirror. Well the one which you've used before, where one could buy a mid-price has gone out of the window...others will follow suit.

Another 250,000 buy comes through at 1.34 pence...26 * 250K buys since 10.11.04...dell314 is using the permutation that he is a clumsy buyer now on ADVFN...can someone give him a better one to go on now as it seems he's running out of them.

Quick Sue .... youu'll miss the boat , lol

Still no big sell dell314 after six trading days..whilst we have been getting the large buyer buying in 250K chunks.

So that's 2 permutations crossed off now :

Can't buy at mid-price anymore
No large seller about

Others will be crossed off in due course as well. You'll look like a prat again, for sure. Both here, BSP, and IQE.

Sue - LOL!

Last time I checked, you could still buy 750k chunks at 1.33p online.
How far from the mid of 1.30p and 1.35p do you reckon that is??

Would you like to borrow a calculator??

Rgds

P.S. I'm still laughing about your stupid attempts to cover up your sell, yesterday.....

Dell: why are you are claming she sold her shares? If' she had sold her PMD shares surely there is no need for her to 'ramp' PMD anymore.

Why do you follow Sue everywhere? What are u after? Do you think you are the guardian angel of investors?

And who are you xmortal , SueHelens guardian angel ?

... or just her lap dog ?

Dil-do head, You talk pure toilet, Upset cos your thread about Sue was closed down. You really are SAD. Never mind Dildo, you still have Dell to listen to u.

Just ignore any reference they make to myself Xmortal, stop wasting your time by replying to them each time.

It was there long enough for people to get the message xmortal and I could always start a new one if you like.

How about "SueHelen - Ramper , Liar , Muppet or all three ? "

Bid eased back to 1.25 pence - enough to excite someone it seems. If a large seller was about they would have held the bid price up and not drop the momentum...but as we have a large buyer about who has been buying at agreed prices its a different ball game.

Sue - Last time I checked online limits, they were as follows:

Buy 750k at 1.3
Sell 38k at 1.26

If your theory is correct that MMs have a big buyer, they obviously want to make it more of a challenge, by making it extremely difficult for holders to sell!

Morning Sue thanks looking for blue today.

Well if someone posted it on ADVFN free board then it must be true .... NOT !

And those nice MM's have have pushed the price down to 1.05-1.35p ... cos of the big buyer (in SueHelens dreams).

You lot live in cloud cuckoo land.

How does level 2 look ?

How is the online quote looking ?

What happened to Sue's Live Streaming trade reporting??

She apears to have missed a biggie!
482,253 at 1.05p just come through.

xmortal - 23 Nov'04 - 22:17 - 424 of 441

Dell: why are you are claming she sold her shares? If' she had sold her PMD shares surely there is no need for her to 'ramp' PMD anymore.

xmortal(a.k.a cath57) - I am claiming that Sue sold her shares because all the evidence says that she has(unless, you think 148,549 is quite a common holding??).

Why she still ramps the shares, I don't really know.

Maybe she still has another holding, or maybe she is just trying to save face, to try and avoid her "pump'n'dumper" label. I doubt if her dwindling number of muppet followers would be so keen, if they knew that she was just skimming a quick profit and moving on, everytime she entices them into a new stock....

P.S. Despite your claim on ADFVN, I am not dil.
You'll find that I use the same user name on ADVFN, TMF, iii and moneyAM.

lol , can't blame you for not wishing to be me Dell :-)

Unlike you Sue we don't all need numerous identities.

I'm not a holder, but longer term this company could prove to be a good turnaround situation in an improving advertising environment.

Unfortunately I don't foresee any significant share price action, before profit numbers start to show it. There just isn't enough enthusiasm to drive this one.

all IMHO.

TSQ.

Seems dell314 and dil have been busy today as the price has been in the red. Not surprising and complete waste of time.

Price eased back today as the market makers looked to pick up stock cheaply as T10 traders (from when they was heavy retail buying 10 trading days ago) have to close their positions today, tomorrow and on Monday. So the myth about the large seller is out of the window again. The large buyer has been picking up stock at agreed prices as the MMs knew they'll be able to get the stock back at less the price they sold at which did happen today.

Thanks for your thoughts TSQ.

LOL!

More total garbage from Sue!

The price dropped early this morning due to a large sell of 482k. It then rose a little, as a few opportunistic buyers came in.

Your alleged "large buyer" apparently picks up blocks at whatever the current online price is, so I don't think it's very likely that there is any "agreed price"

You can still buy huge chunks at midprice. Perhaps the marketmakers have got confused and don't realise they are meant to be accumulating stock for Mr.Big...


When is Sue going to admit that she sold 148,549 shares in this stock??

suehelen, forget dell and dell forget suehelen!!surely you people must have better things to do with your time, otherwise I would think you are pretty much overpaid, maybe not in suehelen`s case as she don`t spend all day bitchin`. Main point is that I also think this is a solid turnaround company,as does TSQ,with good products,good service and quality management, which is why I have
15000 of me hard earned, taxed income invested in them. good luck to all holders and b*****s to the snipers.

I have no problem with the company so good luck snakey but I do have a problem with the misleading bullsh*t that SueHelen posts.

We had the large buyer who has bought roughly 3 million shares....still no sign of any large sell....been eight trading days now since suggested.

Sue - LOL!

For every buyer, there is a seller.

I hope that isn't too complicated for you, or do you think your "big buyer" bought imaginary shares that appeared out of thin air??

That sell that just went through was from a non exsistent seller so nothing to worry about.

Online limits look nasty:

Buy 500k at 1.20p
Sell 25k at 1.16p

What "permutation" will Sue have for that one, I wonder...

My guess is still that KBC, the sole MM on the level2 bid, is actually the MM offering the discounted stock and is holding the bid up to get the best price for their seller(To get service like that means it is unlikely to be a small retail seller IMO).
Other(sensible) viewpoints welcome...

IMO, DYOR etc.

As the price is still falling then your theory appears correct Dell.

I am a little annoyed that sue helen just randomly disappears when all 4 of her posting are falling or not doing anything. A little suspicious

Thats what rampers do.

And liars.

Dil could you please keep this a debate on stocks,

regards GF.

As opposed to imaginary large buyers ?

Come on GF be fair , there is only one joker on this thread and it aint me.

And IMO you would be better off distancing yourself from her and her aliases instead of trying to defend her.

Whats happened to Mrs Bullsh*t and her half witted side kick xmortal ?

Nothing to say about IQE dil.

Hang on john I'll have a look , apologies for not mentioning you in the same breathe as Sue and xmortal.

OK IQE , its now at about the same level as when Sue bullsh*t started her thread but dipped around 15% in the mean time despite there being as many huge imaginary buyers as there are on here.

Ignoring the crap and lies that she posts and just looking at the charts suggests that a long term up trend has been in place for some while and the price is currently at a previous resistance level with a push through this suggesting further upside.

Hope this helps John.

Well a nicerise today and it looks like there may be more instore for tomorrow. Question is why the sudden interest?.......News possibly on the way !!!

Looking at the last trades I would expect to either open blue or be blue very shortly after.

Rescue rights issue on its way ???

Hope everyone saw the news late Friday. Should be a big Monday ;-)

Errr , you meen it might recover 10% of what its lost .... I can do without tips like this ta mate.

Spot on Dil, you do give the truth, pity your mate on ADVFN doesnt.

Anyway superb result for the taffys I hate the frenchies, but having said that it was a superb display and a NATION UPPER for your guys.

WELL DONE.

cheers GF.

No tip there dil just facts. You decide if the MMs will mark it up or not and if there will be a new wave of buying interest.

Moving back up now.

Looks like a new level has been achieved.

back in on these bigtime and believe results will not be too bad considering the money drain has now been disposed of. also expect a pretty positive staement on 28th with results.

Are there no PMD supporters out there. I have been a fan of these for a long long time and appreciate the problems they went through over last 18 months etc. I often buy programmes of `old` and upcoming rugby and football games via their Programme Master arm. They also have a pretty impressive client list, not least being Wimbles and Chelski, and at one time, I thought Mr Abromovich might dip his toe into the publishing business with some financial backing for them or a takeover, but that hasn`t happened ( yet !! )
However, they have now released their interim accounts to June 2005, which on the face of it, look pretty positive to me. ( but I ain`t an accountant !! ). I do believe these are a good recovery stock with a good product and good team. I also believe they will raise the necessary financing to continue their 1st class business and resume the growth potential they showed 3-4 years ago. Hope I`m not wrong but worth a look by any of you who like a gamble out there.
Happy hunting to all you brave people.

Interesting and positive article by Derek Pain for Independant today. Hope I`m not breaching any copyright laws etc by pasting into thread ??? My thanks to Mr Pain as I really do think this is a good company, regardless of fact that I hold shares.
"Profile shareholders will meet on Monday to decide the group's future. They have, as the law demands, been called together because net assets are now less than half the paid-up share capital. Chairman David Ellingham is known to be seeking new capital and he could well unveil cash-raising plans. In June Profile's auditors refused to sign off the accounts because they were not convinced there was enough cash in the kitty. Well, Profile has defied the odds and is still with us. The group, slimmed down by a series of disposals, could be on the verge of pulling off what would be an astonishing comeback. I am growing increasingly hopeful that things can only get better".cash@ independent.co.uk

Sorry all !! Here is the remainder of the article...
"Still its an ill-wind... Profile Media, the portfolio's worst performing constituent, has produced a 260,000 interim profit - thanks to a one-off windfall. In the corresponding period last year it suffered a 1.1m loss. Profits on disposals are largely responsible for the long overdue return to the black. Even so it is heartening to see that trading losses have been sharply reduced".

does anybody know, what if anything, happened at EGM today please ??
RNS news problem has left AIM news dead at 10:00 this morning !!!

Some rise !

Suspended pending an announcement!

at last, some positive news. me a big fan of PMD although currently down the drain (pocket wise), but could be sitting on the lower slopes of Everest if they come good !!
I didn`t see your latest post Andrew, apologies, so I asked question on DGT thread of what the Voluntary Company Agreement actually means. On the face of it, it looks pretty good but ........ ??
anything to add please.

I understand meeting is today. Does anyone know otherwise?

Another suehelen/optimist23 shares hits the receivers pockets.

And i'm not interested that you once made a million% gain on it
once before it went tits up.

The moral of this story is you push crap companies, you might make
a couple of quid but long term most of your tips goes bust.
