achieving significant organic growth from our existing businesses we have
delivered on our core objective to extend our offering and client base through
acquisition. Over the period we have succeeded in acquiring and integrating a
further three companies into the group, transforming Matrix into the UK's true
integrator of choice. As an enlarged Group we have recently won contracts with
Vodafone, B.A.R Honda and The London Internet Exchange and have engaged in a
number of talks for other exciting contracts. Looking forward, the challenge
for us now is to capture the consolidated cost efficiencies in the enlarged
Group and exploit the numerous cross-selling opportunities that are available
to us through our matured commercial relationships with our present client

and building a solid base of recurring revenues and high margin product mix

future progress'

Matrix Communications Group Plc

(`Matrix')

Re Agreement

The Group has concluded heads of terms to acquire a profitable mid-tier
distribution business from the 1st August. This will enable Matrix to continue
to develop its market position and maintain its strong margin growth by
strengthening its key vendor relationships.

As emerging technology segments start to cross over and consolidate, it is very
important that the Group has access to Key Vendor relationships so that 'best
of breed' solutions can be offered to it's customers.

The current annual turnover of the business is 5.5m.

max online buy with Barclays now only 50K. MMs short of stock or what?

MMs just forced to buy 500,000 at 3.6p.

And up she goes!

MMs have bought 1 million so far. Any more to come?

and down she goes

wantu777: MM games only. Done to coincide with 2 x 500,000 delayed buys. MMs want your stock. Hold tight. Due an RNS on 1 August.

As we are due an RNS on Monday, I thought some of you would be interested to see how the price moves after an announcement.

We are looking at prices before and after an RNS.

12/07/04 07:00 UKREG Multiple Contract Win 3.10p 3.65p
01/07/04 07:01 UKREG Acquisition(s) 3.75p 3.9p

15/04/04 07:01 UKREG Award Win 2.89p 3.20p

By adjusting the distortions caused by late trades, it would seem we have 5.5 million buys and 3.5 million sells.

grevis hi, what concerns me is after all the wins and acquisitions you have pointed out above , why on earth is the share price not greater than 26th april 4.93p when matrix has added 4 more contract wins plus good interim results, all seems strange too me..

wantu777: Most IT stocks had a good run up to the spring and then fell back. Matrix has been doing everything right and has been growing very fast. Back then, people piled in and perhaps ran the stock too high too quickly. It's share price peaked around 5p and dropped back until it stabilised at around 3p. The stock is now in its recovery phase and has been rising on the back of impending news. The most immediate bit of news is expected on Monday morning concerning a further acquisition.

It's also thought that Matrix may be about to secure that long anticipated contract for 10 of Vodaphones overseas operations. I'm sure you know that MXC's Intrinsic subsidiary secured a contract with Vodaphone's UK operation some months ago and they're hoping to extend it in time to the rest of Voda's global empire. In March, MXC's CEO said it would take 3/4 months before an announcement could be made. The feeling is that if a deal is to be struck, then it will be soon.

Good news on Monday should see this stock move higher.

Back to 4.93p again? It will come, but we will have to be patient!

Have had a look at the Telecomms Sevices Chart, as an average all shares in this sector are trading sideways and until a breakout above 2450, the story is likely to remain the same. A fall below 2400 and the earlier downward trend may be back on. Seems unfair on MXC who look like a good company and are suffering from the 'blues' of the IT stocks. Will be interesting to see if they can buck the trend!

regards

PTH

This should help:

US stocks end higher 10:57 - 31 Jul
Stocks rose and blue chips made it four winning sessions in a row Friday as investors shrugged off an oil-price spike to a record high....

Thsi is the expected announcement.

From a previous RNS:

Agreement to Acquire an IT Distribution Business

The Group has concluded heads of terms to acquire a profitable mid-tier
distribution business from the 1st August. This will enable Matrix to continue
to develop its market position and maintain its strong margin growth by
strengthening its key vendor relationships.

As emerging technology segments start to cross over and consolidate, it is very
important that the Group has access to Key Vendor relationships so that "best
of breed" solutions can be offered to it's customers.

The current annual turnover of the business is ?5.5m.

Tomorrow is they day. Up bright and early. Should get that RNS either around 7AM, if not then 11AM. Good luck!

Treble win for Matrix

A bit of a coup for Matrix Communications, the IT networks consultancy. The company announces three (yes, three!) more acquisitions today and that, as a result, its board now boasts the former UK managing directors of Cisco Systems, Foundry Networks and Extreme Networks, three of the world's biggest network equipment businesses. There's also news today that Betfair, the notorious betting exchange, has become a Matrix customer. Matrix will supply local area network equipment to Betfair and then technical support, business worth 1.5m over the next two years.

('Matrix' or the 'Group')

Multiple Acquisitions and Trading Update

Matrix Communications Group plc is delighted to announce that, in line with its
strategy to become the UK's leading integrated network solutions provider, it
has completed a further three acquisitions. The combined contribution to the
Group will be a further 8.6m annual turnover and 1m profit before tax.
Following the acquisitions, and subsequent Board addition, the Group will
include the former UK Managing Directors of Cisco Systems, Foundry Networks and
Extreme Networks amongst its members. It is believed that this depth of
industry experience and widespread product knowledge is a first in the sector
and differentiates the Group as the UK's premier integrator of leading edge
technologies.

Concurrently, the Board also provides a trading update on a multiple contract
win with Betfair by way of demonstrating its proven ability to enhance the
value of its acquisitions through a cross-selling model executed across its
extensive network of commercial relationships. Betfair is a multiple award
winning on-line betting website.

Ian Smith, CEO, commented:

'In July we announced that we had won a series of contracts with Guardian
Newspapers Limited (GNL). That series of multiple contract wins came as a
direct result of our strong commercial relationship with the GNL, which allowed
us to sell a range of products and services across our various subsidiaries.
Following the completion of these acquisitions we will, as an enlarged Group,
be capable of providing our customers with the complete range of products and
services associated with a network solution spend. Our focus is still very much
on being a provider of leading edge technologies and following the acquisition
of Bedrock we are now premier suppliers of Extreme Networks and Foundry
Networks. Both of these are widely recognised as being the 'best of breed'
solutions for network hardware.

To support our premier supplier status we now have the former UK Managing
Directors of the world's three largest network providers giving us a level of
industry experience and product knowledge on the Group's Board that I believe
is unrivalled in the UK market place.'

Acquisition of Bedrock Networks

Bedrock Networks ('Bedrock') was founded in 2001 by the former UK Managing
Director of Extreme Networks, David Grant. A Premier Partner of Extreme
Networks, Bedrock, is a leading network integrator and recently won contracts
with Exchange Point and the London Internet Exchange, both of which work

Audited results to 31st July 2003 show an annual turnover of 4.1m and an
Operating Profit of 1.1m. Net assets being acquired are 0.1m and include
deferred revenue of over 0.6m.

Matrix.

On completion Matrix paid an initial consideration of 1.1m, of which 500k was
in cash and 600k in new ordinary shares in Matrix, (20,689,655 shares at
2.90p). Application has been made for these shares to be admitted to AIM and
this is expected to take place on 5th August 2004. Subject to the achievement
of agreed performance targets, a further payment of 235k cash and 300k in
shares may be made after 31st January 2005 and a final payment of 300k cash
and 485k in shares after 31st July 2005. In order for the vendors to receive
the maximum earn-out consideration, of 2.42m, Bedrock will need to achieve
revenues of 3.6m and net profits of 500k for the period 1st August 2004 to
31st July 2005. The vendors have agreed to retain any Matrix shares for a

profile.

for the vendors to receive the maximum earn-out consideration, of 2.5m, NASL
will need to achieve revenues of 5m and net profits of 500k for the period
1st August 2004 to 31st July 2005. The vendors have agreed to retain any Matrix
shares for a period of 12 months from the time of issue.

Excellent news, so they've done a mixture of cash, shares & shares on target delivery as expected. I especially like the NAS acquisition, cash up front & no shares for a year. Only 2% extra shares will be coming onto the market at this moment in time, I imagine this bit is a head of market expectations... Still digesting this info :-)

Good news re- betfair too, MXC is really pulling things together.

WELL DONE TO ALL AT MXC
