Admit to a wee bit of concern re figures tomorrow because indications are that ASDA has been slow and the market could react negatively. It has been argued that this was the reason for statement re Wal-Mart. andysmith could be right is suspecting a bit of initial reaction to statement. I know I'll be up early to check.

I haven't seen any evidence as yet that ASDA has been slow. I'm not sure where that is coming from or why it keeps cropping up. Does anyone have any information to show that Stanelco won't meet the 200 target?

It has been said, though I have not found anything to substantiate it, that news of the Wal-Mart link was leaked in the USA, which forced an early RNS here. I think we are all aware that results will be duff, could be wrong of course!! just what will SEO have in the pipeline though?! They must be flat out working on new ideas, why open a new R & D unit if not? It HAS to be good for all from here on!!! This is not a ramp, just the views of a loyal shareholder since 2003!

No info on the 200 target Biscuit, not until tomorrow anyway; if there has been a hold up I'm sure it had something to do with the overdiscussed, overlengthy and finally over, court case!!

Market expectations are a loss of around 2m to 2.25m, so provided we are within 10% of these levels, then results are in line and will not cause any concern unless for some strange reason people were not expecting a loss of around 2.25m. With EK gone long on Friday, it will not be attracting many shorters first thing on results, so without any market shocks and a loss as expected in the region of 2.25m, then it should be going up this coming week on the progress update and outlook statements.

Well, no results yet. Looks like some of the media got it wrong, no doubt tomorrow for release.

It's been suggested that the results may still be today, release time at 1430 hrs to coincide with the Dow opening, re Walmart. I hope I am wrong but I can't see it myself. I think the impact on the Seo/Walmart deal would have to show huge figures, in the results to justify the decision.
But they may already have firm figures re the deal. If they have, a vast amount of work, figure wise has already been completed.
As said hope I am wrong as at 0700hrs on Tues I will be at about 50,000 feet, somewhere above Africa. ( Nice if Seo's share price joins me at that altitude ).

Captain Guide (not that I've any time for an arse like that) seemed certain of a 2:30 release, but I cannot see any point in that regardless of what the results contain.

if the information contains wal-mart related news then the relese would have to be simultaneously, otherwise invetors who are already trading would have an advantage over the us.

AGM and finals are tomorrow for sure. Apparently the loss of 2.1M is spot on, but no real movement with actual orders etc. Its going to be another 'future' speech from Howard!
Sharesure, I have heard similar talk Re: Mcdonalds for this week, but it wont be mentioned in the results. However I bet it'll be delayed a tad-always seems the way!

Morning, ssanebs,
Not always, unless it will have a significant effect on the other companies shares, ( ie Walmart ) and without figures, it will have very little if any effect on a company as huge as Walmart. There are many instances of news being released where a company has a deal in the offering, ( without figures ) that are not released simultaneously by the other company, if at all. ( re the news on Friday, this was not released by Walmart, only by Seo ( unless i missed it ). As said if there are figures re any deal in the results then yes, I would agree with you, but I don't think there will be. Also as said, I hope I am wrong.

How do you know that the loss will be 2.1m and that there is no real movement with actual orders (I assume you mean Greenseal and Starpol). Where do you get your info from that you base your statement on?

Oily,
I shall rephrase - I have been led to believe from an acquaintance that the 2.1M expected loss will be just that. As I'm sure you'll understand, that is an opinion of his and that no price sensitive information would leak from this trustworthy board that are in place at SEO. Of course, this could be complete crap and they lost 10 million!!!!! Nothing is ever sure until its announced.
As others have mentioned the share might slowly tick upwards over the next few weeks, but it seems that the city is going to be looking for actual cash entering the books-many feel it is only when orders are confirmed that we'll be out of the teens.

Apparently you have to subscribe to this site to find out what the evil one is doing.

Manageress: driver has given the reference. Costs 70 to 80 to subscribe. Editor is Tom Winnifrith who does his research well. You have probably come across Zak Mir who is a respected chartist. Tom chats to EK twice a week and the piece is quite entertaining. Helpful to know what Evil is up to as he gets a lot right but some wrong; loves to short but probably means at least as much when he goes long as with SEO on Friday.
Evolution forecast loss of 1.9m last month so 2.1m will be in line with market expectations. I saw the Wal-Mart annopuncement as both negative and positive: negative in the sense that one had hoped that they would be further along the line rather than just work being undertaken with an environmentally friendly group; positive in the sense that WM must be reading the ASDA work positively so that the longer term implications are very positive. I suspect that this stock needs to be played long and it seems that that is what EK is doing.
