Results back in April spoke of 'current monthly revenues c8m', so didn't sound like a one-off.
Just to remind everyone what a positive announcement that was:
4 April 2005
YooMedia Plc
Preliminary Results for the year ended 31 December 2004
YooMedia plc, the UK's biggest independent interactive media company, today
announces preliminary results for the year ended 31 December 2004. The group
specialises in gaming, dating and the public sector, delivering its content and
services across all digital platforms. It is the market leader in real-time
interactivity - and through its mobile arm, it can deliver interactivity to
every TV home in the country.
Key points
DITG acquisition successfully integrated
Acquisition of ViaVision
On target for operating break-even by 31 March 2005
Turnover of 21.3m (2003: 0.7m)
Operating loss of 24.0m (2003: loss 5.4m) after operating exceptionals
of 5.9m, and depreciation, amortisation and impairment charges of 11.0m
Current monthly revenues of c.8.0m
Commenting on the results, Michael Sinclair, chairman, said:
'2004 was the year in which YooMedia made the greatest strides yet in creating
the UK's biggest independent interactive media company. Each of our business
units has performed well during the year and all of them are strongly poised for
growth.
The leap forward we made by merging with DITG has taken YooMedia to a new level,
building on the progress we had already made over the past couple of years. The
merger has lived up to our expectations and the two businesses are already
integrated, resulting in benefits in terms of scale and synergy. We look forward
with relish to the opportunities ahead.
Since the year-end, the company has entered into an agreement to acquire the
balance of the shares in ViaVision Limited, having already acquired 15% with the
acquisition of DITG. As a result of this acquisition, YooMedia will operate
Pokerzone TV, the new name for the existing Game-In TV channel. YooMedia will
provide interactive services for this channel through the red button on Sky and
via mobile devices.'

Thx RD. I just think we need a statement to show that the revenues are real and that they have reigned in the losses in a BIG way. 8 milion of revenue is great as long as their EBITA registers to justify the enourmous valuation.
i want to stress that i am a fan of this stock but i just want to keep it real and invest in the company and not the pokerzone hype.

I'm gonna shut up permanently for the good of the share. Every time I try to put a positive on something the damn price drops again. Lets see if my resignation as a poster on this board makes us all a few quid!!!

have been keeping an eye on this one for a while, wondering when it was going to find some support. Looks like from the TA support is there at 10p, although you have to go back a while, if it continues to fall then nothing till 5p. Looks very very oversold and would have thought there must be an entry level soon?

lots of shares being issued as employee share options--a new lot hits the market on 9th June so this could be why the sp is down again.

Well resigning my position as a poster on this board didn't work. I may have to go the whole hog and start rubbishing it, see if that helps!!!
