This technology services minnow is benefiting from restructuring its business, with a reduced loss in spite of a lower turnover. The company made a small trading profit - of 2,000 - which should bode well for the current financial year. Of its three trading divisions, cScape seems to be doing the best, winning a number of new projects and benefiting from the government's e-government initiative.
NetB2B2's publishing division ITM Graphics would appear to be breaking-even, while IBM business partner Blue Sky has changed its focus to higher margin hosting business, having shut down its consulting activities.

Shares says: Looks better placed after its share reorganisation and fund raising.

LAUNCH OF NEW CMS WIZARD IN CONJUNCTION WITH MICROSOFT
RESULT OF AGM

Netb2b2 plc, the AIM listed digital services group announces that its wholly
owned subsidiary company cScape Ltd has today launched a new Wizard tool
- The CMS Wizard, which will be given worldwide marketing support by Microsoft.

CMS Wizard has been jointly developed with Danish firm Mondosoft, and provides a
cost-effective way of building and maintaining a website. The CMS Wizard will
retail for $1,999.99 and is licensed on a per server basis. Revenue will be
split between the two firms.

The CMS Wizard requires minimal technical skills and has been developed to
create professional content managed websites from scratch within minutes.
Designed specifically to plug into both Standard and Enterprise editions of
Microsoft's Content Management Server, the CMS Wizard contains a range of
website styles designed to suit different organisational structures and comes
complete with an integrated search facility.

Netb2b2 plc Managing Director, Andy Gannon commented: "cScape has worked closely
with Microsoft Corp for over ten months to develop this product. Microsoft
promoted the CMS Wizard internationally to thousands of their Partners and
valuable feedback was canvassed from these parties to ensure the CMS Wizard
fully meets the needs of the partner community."

"We expect the product to be particularly successful in the public sectors,
particularly at the local government level. However, demand should also be
strong in corporates at a departmental level, where up until now they have
faced many deployment challenges when implementing a content management system
- a lack of relevant technical skills, prohibitive costs and lengthy timescales.
Using the CMS Wizard in conjunction with Microsoft's Content Management Server
companies can overcome these challenges by speedily creating well designed,
searchable, CMS-enabled websites at a fraction of the cost of previous
implementations."

Keith Young, Chairman, commenting at the Annual General Meeting of Netb2b2 plc
held today where all resolutions put to the meeting were duly passed, added:
"The positive trends mentioned in my chairman's statement of 19 November have
continued and we continue to place emphasis on both organic and acquisitive
growth going forward. It is very pleasing that our .Net Tools wizard has been
launched today in conjunction with Microsoft."

The CMS Wizard is available to purchase on-line at www.cms-wizard.com.

Current Price: 0.95-1.15 pence.

is there any reason why the share price has not risen today considering the amount of trading that there has been today after such a jump yesterday ?

Results out next week? Can anyone confirm?
cheers.

Results are due towards end of March 2004.

The share price has not risen today because there is a seller who is clearing out stock. Hopefully it should have finished today as we have seen a 3,000,000 buy at 1.08 pence and a 1,000,000 buy at 1.18 pence.
Once the seller clears out the price should start rising.
An excellent medium/long term hold in the meantime.

At the open, the price did rise to 1.0-1.2 pence, but the market makers must have received instructions that the seller wishes to sell more stock. Hence they were happy to take them off the seller around 0.9 and 0.95 pence all day.

Should start rising hopefully from Monday.

Thanks. SH

Neutral (Medium term) - Jan 16, 2004
Has risen 86% since the bottom on 24 Mar 2003 at 0.50. Is within a falling trend and continued decline within the current trend is indicated. On reactions back, there is resistance against the ceiling of the trend channel. Has met the objective at 1.09 after a break of a rectangle formation. The price has now fallen, but the formation indicates further rise. The stock has support at p 0.60. Poor liquidity (traded 55% of the days, mean 3.00 mill per day) weakens the analysis.

Neutral (Short term) - Jan 16, 2004
Has risen 69% since the bottom on 1 Dec 2003 at 0.55. Is within a rising trend, which indicates a continued growth. The stock has support at p 0.75. The poor liquidity of the stock (traded 55% of the days, mean 3.00 mill per day) may weaken the analysis.

Short term bullish as well.

Pre-market up 7.6%, price 0.95-1.15 pence.

Price 1.05-1.2 pence now, could be about to breakout past the resistance at 1.15 pence.

Price 1.05-1.25 pence, up 17.9%. Quite a few delayed buys would start coming through later I would imagine.

Price 1.2-1.4 pence now, up 33.3%. Quite a few good delayed buys starting to come through around 1.12 pence.
There is not a lot stopping this now and I would imagine we will pause for a breath around 2.25 pence all dips in between are buying oppurtunities.

Delayed 454,787 buy reported at 1.14 pence from an hour ago.

From Today's Leaders and Laggards:
