Founded in 2007, RM2 is a vertically-integrated innovator in pallet development, manufacture, supply and management. Recognising that there are significant costs and drawbacks associated with traditional pallets, RM2 has established a disruptive presence in global pallet supply and aims to improve the supply chain of manufacturing and distribution businesses through the effective and efficient use and management of composite pallets.

RM2 has designed and manufactured the BLOCKPal™ pallet, a multi-trip, heavy duty composite pallet that is suitable for use in both automated and manual areas of the supply chain where there are high levels of movements. The composite material and the associated manufacturing process is designed to bring qualities of strength, durability, flexibility and scale of production as well as other benefits. The BLOCKPal™ pallet has been independently tested by leading institutions and has been shown regularly to outperform comparable products and industry standards.

RM2 aims to change the way its customers look at pallets from a consumable to an asset that can generate significant accretive profit margin. To do this, we align ourselves with potential customers – typically large manufacturing, distribution and retail businesses – to provide an integrated solution to their pallet and pallet movement needs, whilst interacting with other logistics partners, as necessary. RM2’s products have been developed in consultation with these customers and are designed to provide receivers of goods with greater visibility over costs and the ability to reduce the direct and indirect costs associated with inbound goods movements.

RM2 can supply its pallets and the associated services on a rental basis to closed loops or by outright sale and its production method is versatile enough to easily supply standard or bespoke pallets.

RM2 International director buys shares after strong maiden results



A non-executive director at RM2 International increased his stake in the company one day after it reported a trim in pre-tax profits and a boost in revenues in 2014.
Paul Walsh purchased 100,000 shares for an individual price of 68.5p, spending £68,500.

Following the transaction, Walsh holds 1.7m shares in the group, which represent 0.54% of its issued share capital.

The shipping pallet seller and provider on Monday posted a pre-tax loss of $47.3m in the 12 months to 31 December, an improvement from $77.2m in 2013.

The deployment of pallets is expected to expand significantly over the remainder of 2015 and into 2016, thanks to a substantial agreed sale to a major industrial customer.

RM2 International S.A. ("RM2" or "the Company") confirms that it was notified on 17 June 2015 that Amaury de Seze, a Non-Executive Director of RM2, acquired 100,000 ordinary shares of US$0.01 each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") on that date at 72.5 pence per Ordinary Share. Following this transaction, Amaury de Seze is interested in a total of 1,450,000 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 0.45 per cent. of the existing issued share capital of the Company.



In addition, RM2 has acquired 342,334 ordinary shares of US$0.01 each in the capital of the Company, in connection with forfeitures due to departures under its ESOP program. These shares will be held as non-voting treasury stock. The Company's issued share capital consists of 323,030,156 ordinary shares and the total number of voting rights in the Company is 322,687,822.

"As a result primarily of the decision to change to gel coating, the Company will not achieve the substantial upswing in production that had been expected to begin in Q3 this year and accelerate through Q4. This means that revenue and production numbers for the full year will be significantly below previous guidance.

StockMarketWire.com
RM2 International has posted an H1 pretax loss of $25.2m, from a loss of $22.2m. Revenue was $1.8m, from $0.8m. Separately, the company intends to raise about £30m via a placing of about 75m shares at 40p each.

"We are delivering a quality, mass-produced product to our customers in ever-increasing volumes which will generate powerful performance for our shareholders," said CEO John Walsh of the interim results.

The company is debt free with cash and cash equivalents of $35.9m.

Production is expected to be not less than 2.5 million pallets in 2016, with a production run rate at the end of Q4 of 2016 of c.300,000 pallets per month.

IC - The update hardly inspires confidence and we are reducing our rating on the shares to hold at 43p.

i bought a smallish number for my sipp because i understand and like the concept and technology
nothing has changed, but that doesn't mean to say that even in 3/5 years time this will prove to have been a good investment
