INTELLIGENT INVESTING WITH BANJO,well sort of! (Ed-hmmmm-lol)

Galleon Holdings plc has three key divisions:Galleon Entertainment for entertainment type IP,Croco Worldwide for product IP,Phoenix for interactive TV services for broadcasters in China/South East Asia which includes Robot Information Technology (Lushy Assets ('Yunbo')) who are a wireless interactive platform service provider in China who will work alongside Phoenix to enable GON to hold on to a greater part of the generated revenue and so increase the profit margin......think that's the plan! :-)

This makes Galleon Holdings a 'One Stop Shop' to develop and complete new and existing IP's.

Getting 'out-takes' from Apollo's Pad now!-lol

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRttH9AK-IE


Edit-Catherine's voice is a little deeper than on the completed intro.to the show
:-)

http://www.apollospad.com/webisodes/87

Hmmmmm,mm's dropping the SP on very small volumes! Can be seen as either a + or - sign for various reasons.
Phoned GON regarding an Interim result date,think it was Len who answered,Natasha probably on her lunch break,anyway nothing official date wise.

Edit-that was regarding Interim date and not a date with Natasha..........just to be clear. :-)

Under 90k of sells and a 9.5% drop in SP,you have to laugh with mm's taking full advantage in adjusting the SP against those 10k's being drip fed in.
Anyway,should be good watching the recovery......he says bravely! :-)

Well,the SP started to recover after another drop,interesting times......


Anyway,a little competition to win the Skunk Fu DVD:

I see UK2 (Apollo's Pad server supplier) have put their name to the show,which is nice! :-)

Edit-also see post 1123 of 1135

Hmmm,my unusual addition of the MA(400) grey line on chart above may come into play here! :-)

banjomick...hope your wrong on that 1.Don't have a lot of shares,but that is a big drop from when i bought in February,on news about soccer challenge programme with Chelsea.

Morning fisherboy,
It's quite difficult to gauge how successful SSS will be on the revenue front,at the present time anyway!

SSS is GON's first show in China and a major achievement in getting their foot in the door within this region.
What is more interesting in my opinion is the partnership with RDF Media and where this will take GON!

Just my opinions so please do your own research as I'm in no rush with this one.

Well,Apollo's Pad is back on again and with a wonderful new webisode :-)

I'll just lob this here as it might (Ed-big might) relate to Apollo's Pad in the future,maybe.....

Well...........................lol.

Not sure what's happened here,don't think it's bad news being leaked as volumes would be greater,unless there is a big sell in the background.
Last years interims were on the 19th June,for the record.

Still happy to hold (he says bravely)

Skunk Fu! , a Cartoon Saloon, Cake Ent. and Telegael coproduction for TG4 in Ireland and SuperRTL in Germany, was highlighted at The Sharpe Co. This is the top animated boys' action show on the BBC and is being stripped on Cartoon Network in the U.S. Galleon Holdings controls the licensing rights and showed its internally developed toy line; The Sharpe Co. handles licensing for the U.S. market. Video distributor NCircle will distribute Skunk Fu! on DVD in the U.S. The Sharpe Co.'s other animation properties include Biker Mice From Mars, which will air on 4KidsTV; Freefonix, a musical animation series; and Franny's Feet, which will be stripped on PBS Kids Sprout.

Edit-Galleon Holdings also own 15% of Skunk Fu

Nice end to the day..................

Looking good :-)

"Galleon Holdings plc (AIM: GON), the AIM-listed intellectual property owner and developer in the entertainment sector, is pleased to announce the syndication of Galleon's programme, Super Soccer Star, to the Shanghai Sports Channel, part of Shanghai Media Group."

"Due to recent events in China, there has been disruption to all family entertainment shows scheduled for prime time, however, despite being off air for three weeks, Super Soccer Star remains one of the top five overall shows for the broadcaster in the Guangdong region."

"The early success of the show in Guangdong has also instigated discussions for further series of Super Soccer Star in China with satellite broadcasters as well as a new series from Galleon's Super Sports Star franchise, focusing on a new sport. Phoenix is also in discussions with potential partners in Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, India and Middle East and is in final negotiations of a co-production agreement for Super Soccer Star in Malaysia with a leading terrestrial broadcaster."

"This is further evidence that Galleon is well placed to exploit the opportunity that exists in the rapidly developing broadcast markets in China and South East Asia."
