igp put in a stunning set of results this morning, raised money at 33p, now 49p to buy.

This information is provided by RNS
"ID Data Group Plc (AIM:IDD), the smart card solutions and outsourcing business,
announces that on 25 May 2007, it completed the acquisition of the business and
assets of CredEcard plc ('CredEcard'), the pre paid card service provider, for a
total consideration of up to 725,000 in cash and shares, subject to the new
business achieving specified performance objectives over the next two years.

The initial consideration comprises 25 million ordinary shares of 1p in ID Data
('Ordinary Shares'). Application has been made for the new Ordinary Shares to be
admitted to trading on AIM and it is anticipated that dealings will commence on
1 June 2007.

Highlights

- European market for pre paid cards is estimated to reach 360 million cards by
2010
- ID Data moves up the 'value chain' and into financial services
- ID Data's key relationship with MasterCard(R) strengthened
- Acquisition is expected to enhance future profitability of the group
- Additional funds to be raised to allow more rapid development of the pre paid
business


Commenting on the acquisition, Peter Cox, CEO of ID Data Group plc, said:

'Completing the acquisition of the CredEcard business puts ID Data further up
the 'value chain' as the Company can now offer a full range of financial
services in the rapidly expanding pre paid card business, under the CredEcard
brand. The pre paid market is growing at a dynamic rate and the future for
businesses servicing this sector is exciting. We are now in a position to
aggressively tackle this market opportunity, in a sector that, historically, has
enjoyed higher profit multiples than our core card related businesses. The
acquisition will also allow us to further develop opportunities with our
existing European customers in retail, government, leisure and banking.' "

Thanks Harrycat,
Quite an upbeat statement from P Cox,market obviously not very moved by it,i guess even more patience is required to either reap rewards or watch the lights go out.
