Just remember Alan they are in trials with Wal-Mart, things can't be that bad! Look at the quote re the tray that uses 75,000 tonnes of plastic per year and 500 machines! That is what they are looking at at the minute, great stuff!

Very true Alan, some better indication of quantity would have given investerd a little better insight as to exactly where we are today. But don't forget, you even said it yourself, that they can't give figures as to how much is to be brought and on what scale, until they have signed a specific contract with the clients...
Another interesting mention, Hadn't heard anything about this before,
The distribution and manufacturing deals for FrogPack, have been reviewed and
restructured and we are now pleased to announce that we have agreed a deal with
Mondi Packaging.
looks as if it is a quater pence lower than my comedy predicition last night!

Yeah, I know biscuit.
Got me depressed head on this morning.
I hold 18 stocks and 2 have reported finals this morning. Both down!!
I'll look to the NOWT thread to cheer me up (Unless I win the FTSE competition - need the FTSE to end at 5890 today!!!)

Betfair has 5875.9 and above at 1.67 to 1! I like those kind of odds...

Hunty,
Try the FTSE competition thread.
It has odds of 50 oddbins voucher to nowt. I like those kind of odds.
And I know how much an oddbins voucher would help stretch your meagre student allowance. ;-)

I agree quite a lot with Alan says and now know why they released the RNS on Friday about Walmart. Just a sweetener to camouflage the disappointment that investors have with this statement which I found a little lacking in hard facts.
There is absolutely no reason why they could not have told us how many machines they expect to be converted in the ASDA exclusive deal by the end of the July.
I agree the future does, on the basis of information provided, look to be very rosy, but I wish they could have blown a little of the smoke away.
What I omitted to say, is that I still remain a very long holder of this stock because of the potential future which is vast.
The oily one

I always remember Warren Buffet a few years ago after the tech bubble burst saying he'd had a very boring year investing in paint, carpets and bricks - and was very excited about it.
RF sealing, Starpol and packaging are hopefully going to continue to be equally boring over the next 5 years.

I always remember my Grandad, Festus Beauregard Dipfinger IV, saying "Don't balme the dog, you trod in it".
Don't know if that helps.

I'm happy to watch the paint dry. Not much about the court case, seems to be just about business as usual, not much in the way of concessions and only 690k costs? Chief Exec doesn't say anything despite the note at the bottom of the accounts.
I'm still :-) about the long term

I think the asda starpol trials have rolled over into the bigger picture which is Wal-Mart in USA

Financially, acheivement at bottom end of expectations (mine); potential more rosy. Reasonable cash; at least a year's worth on bast burn, but probably moving onto more expensive phase. Hint that ASDA deal will be extended to get the volume. So not much expectation for current financial year. Looks as though we will still be living on RNSs; but there could well be some really good news down the line. Have we been here before?

Agree, Treblewide: the results are poor compared with expectations built up last Summer. The prospects are good, very good though. What should the cap. of company be? Why 150m? Far too high on basis of performance. Far too low on basis of prospect. Friend Evil has it right, stache them away for the family's inheritance!

Poor yes, but promising, very promising, and to be honest perhaps a little better than I was expecting. I felt that the RNS last week was a confidence booster before today, but really it was not necessary, having re-read the results 4/5 times I like what I see, very bullish and oozing confidence.

mmm....do not see much positives except more jam tomorrow type statements....turnover stayed constant and loss getting wider....there is no bottom line commercial progress in 12 months i am unsure where your confidence ooze comes from
