Agcert is the offspring of XL Techgroup, a development capital group with an impressive track record. Its principle business is the development of biodigesters that help to reduce methane emissions - one of the principle contributors to global warming - on livestock farms. Farmers and companies in the EU are coming under increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and Agcert is perfectly placed to capitalise on this. Although a new company, it already has contracts of Eu74 million, including some heavyweights like BHP Billiton and Nuon. The beauty of Agcert's business is that, along with the initial sale of the equipment to reduce carbon emissions, every sale secures for Agcert a revenue stream as Agcert sells-on the carbon credits produced and takes a percentage as commission. With gross margins of 70% plus, Agcert is not a share to miss out on in todays world.

Cheers, DYOR.

Ive received a copy of Sharewatch today and they really are going ballistic about this one..........

They say AGCERT- - one to put the crown jewels into.

- We think Agcert shares will go much higher, perhaphs several fold higher, as investors realise how strong this business is going to become. (they bought at 170p)

- Agcert is already the largest producer of Carbon Credits and there is no other significant competition.

- Were sticking our neck out but think Agcert will become a FTSE- 250 constituent at some point in the future.ENDS.

cheers GF.

Nobody interested. Youl be sorry.

cheers GF.

Out of interest GF, have you bought into XL Tech too, if you dont mind me asking?

You have to be patient with this one, has had a good rise recently after some good buying. Also expected to be a FT250 company soon.

managed to pick up a few today-through Hoodless Brennan telephone dealing only--if anyone else wants to join in. I was told to buy these back in early June as the city boys like them--better late than not at all as I agree they will be worth holding IMO.

At last this ones coming to life.
cheers GF.

This is a very quiet thread. As there anybody still out there?

Carbon credits back in the news. Is today the start of a concerted push north for the AGC share price?

looks like it's on the way down - another Shares magazine recommendation.

So what's caused the big drop in price today then?

Agcert shares tumble after broker note
Tue Jan 30, 2007 9:51 AM GMT



LONDON (Reuters) - Greenhouse gas reduction firm Agcert International had more than 20 percent wiped off its shares on Tuesday after its price target was slashed to 70p from 270p in a broker note by Morgan Stanley.

The note downgraded Dublin-based Agcert to "underweight" from "overweight". Agcert gives farms technology to cut pollution and sells the resulting saved carbon emission reduction (CER) credits to companies that need them.

"We expect higher losses in the short term, lower structural profitability of the business and a lower option value than previously envisaged," said Morgan Stanley analyst Luciano Diana in a note.

Shares in Agcert fell 20.2 percent to 98-1/2p by 9:28 a.m., valuing the company around 166 million pounds.

The price target had been cut because of lower sales and earnings estimates, the note said.

The note reduced the number of carbon emission reduction credits it expects Agcert will create to 4,000 per site from 5,500 per site, based on recently available information.

Agcert said earlier this month it had finalised the first part of its planned 70-million-euro debt funding programme.

It also said a 14 million euro (9 million pound) bridging loan had been advanced by two of its major shareholders to be repaid by the end of March.

AgCert said in December it was aiming to raise money to finance further investment, with the aim of becoming cash flow positive by the end of 2007.

Heading to 70p tomorrow

On a Saturday? How much of a doom-monger are you?!

Are you dreaming, queen1. Today is Friday. Wake up...LOL

By the way, I am not a doom-monger. I'm being realistic with AGC

Apologies, fully awake now. However it was up a penny rather than down 11.5p thank goodness.

Apologies accepted

I still don't know what u r talking about... it was never 11.5p down on Friday...wake up...LOL...apologies accepted...are you drunk???

No but I think you are. On post 28 you said, "Heading to 70p tomorrow." At the time the SP was 81.5p. You were therefore suggesting it was going to drop 11.5p, thus arriving at your figure of 70p. It didn't, it went up. Which part of that are you struggling with?!
