TRADING UPDATE


Envesta Telecom plc ('Envesta Telecom' or the 'Company') the AIM quoted premium
international telephony provider today announces a trading update for the
financial year to 30 June 2005.


Focus within the business has been to prepare the company for the medium and
long term strategy to remove its dependency on one market. The thrust of our
strategy is to build a retail product to complement our managed wholesale
business, build or acquire a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) capability
then, through acquisition, move further towards a retail offering ready for a
fully converged Voice and Data world over the next few years.


Trading

Revenue and PBT were in line with market expectations. Revenue increased by over
75% on last year, whilst absolute gross profit was more than double that of last
year. This growth, along with significant investment in the new product areas,
has however put a strain on our working capital and we will look to address this
early in the new financial year.


Existing Managed Wholesale Business

The Managed wholesale business continues to operate in a very important part of
the UK International market-place. Our current commissioned research shows that
the market for International telecoms via a pre-paid calling card remains
significant at 495 million per annum(1). While this is an important part of the
UK market it has always been and continues to be a volatile sector. Envesta
competes in this market by continually seeking new niche opportunities.
Our strategy is not to grow this business further, but use it as a foundation
from which to move deeper into retail products thus removing our reliance on
this single market.


Cheaper Call Rate progress report

Following the launch of
www.cheapercallrate,com
on 28 February 2005, the Company
now has a growing position within a UK retail market worth 460 million per
annum(1). We are particularly pleased with the level of Gross Margin achieved to
date, which is in excess of 33% and we expect the product to deliver
profitability in our current financial year.


Kevin Jauncey, Executive Chairman commented, 'I am delighted that the results
this year showed a strong return to profitability. In line with the strategy, we
continue to hold a number of acquisition discussions, which we hope to bring to
fruition in the next period. In the meantime we are well progressed in our plans
to incorporate additional VoIP capability as a vital piece in the jigsaw.'

thats not good

This is very poor news considering its potential. It has been over-hyped.

I did mention in earlier posts about the cost of setting up CCR - they needed to spend on the VOIP - it was all there in the armshare write up about not believing they could muddle their way through the murky waters of VOIP.

Advans and Pete did well did they not as did the big seller.

Never mind - my last post on EVS - all the best for the future - the coming dilution may see the price well low now for the forseable future.

I am not gloating - I tried to warn you - and I feel sorry for those holding today.

Chin Up - it happens to us all sometime.


Nice to get some appreciation for being a bear and not just abuse - I only post on over ramped - over hyped - over spun stocks with a bear view - well - when you buy and sell its your own choice - and you can blame nobody else if you do not research enough into the share - DYOR !

IInside..... hope people will realise why forum needs both BEARS as well as bulls.
Rampers (they know who they are) on here who were mocking the likes of you can hang their heads in shame.

What about this bit? It makes no sense at all unless their margins are shrinking. The comment "volatile sector" is what is significant.



"Our current commissioned research shows that the market for International telecoms via a pre-paid calling card remains significant at #495 million per annum(1).
While this is an important part of the UK market it has always been and continues to be a volatile sector. Envesta competes in this market by continually seeking new niche opportunities.

mkt reacted to this like profits warning this looks like its recoverable and results will be good so cheap at this price IMHO

GORDON,would you hold?

got no choice as paid wrong side of 6p

short term could pick up from this level mk cap only 9m downside fairly limited worry is may be rights issue are the corner which might be deeply discounted results due end of september so might pick up towards them.

below 2.7p ...maybe a BUY

Sane here gordon so i am going to stick with it.
Thx.

No more trading for me for a year or two.

Company only valued at 8.6 million at the moment.Profits this year of 4.4million!
Downside is the cash call for expansion.Got to be a takeover certainty if it drops any further.Turnover this year was over 21 million.I think Kevin was getting the bad news out of the way.

RED

Redhill that is good news,and encourageing for the likes of me who are sitting on a HUGe loss at the mo,bottom draw for now together with the rest of my stocks with the exeption of rtd.
cheers.

A rights issue might be viable.

What's a Rights Issue Ling? And why might it be viable?

many thanks for your advice.

pth

REDHILL

NOT SURE ABOUT THE 4.4M PROFITS THIS YEAR ?

Over-ramped, over-hyped and over-valued.

Sarcasm, PTHolden! I am sure the Web will explain a Rights Issue for you. If you really don't know then you should stay out of the stock market.
