I agree re the MD and Chairmans statements being important, also the bit about being financially sound. The main point re the results will be the matter of contracts. I appreciate these things take time, but (mainly due to their own making) SEO now need to deliver. It matters not, in the short to medium term how sound the finances are, or potential orders, they will be judged on the question CAN THEY PRODUCE. If they can't the market will judge them and the price. The results will either way have a very big impact on the currant SP. All IMHO of course.

pinnacle, twitching tends to occur when the sp falls from 31p to 8p .

Hello all - much has happened since I last posted in November.

I still hold substantial shares (2m +) - must confess that I sold some, and confess again that with hindsight I should have sold a lot more.

I am still in profit - but obviously no where near as much as might have been. Strangely enough - I still have confidence in the products of this company, would like to see the management team strengthened, but still feel that they could be a world beater.

My view a while back was that they had started to reduce the risk attached to this company - but without solid sales coming through, this stock could tetter on the edge for a while.

Good Luck all, dont expect big surprises with the Interims.

Significant expectation is being placed on the Interims to help push the SP along. Without some good news (revenue / sales) I feel sure that the support level of 8p is going to be breached, so I don't believe that it will teeter for very long at all. Hopefully, there will be some good news; with hindsight it is easy to see that management have been the biggest rampers of SEO and expectations all along (well, with the exception of PM1 of course).

Hi all
Do not post very often,but enjoy the banter and reasoning on SEO.I know from a lifetimes experience in the farming sector that supermarkets in general have no respect for those of us working at the coal face.I believe seo will come good,but the revenue we expect for the end product will be much less.At present seo are probably having the fight of their lives to negociate any sort of worthwhile deal.These big boys will be screwing seo for all they can.


Good luck to everyone holding longterm

seems to be some definite shorter activity on the BB's at the moment. new names popping up everywhere. Guess they're squeeling with the price being up. Smacks of desperation.

SP up?? You looking at the chart upside down Biscuit? LoL

driver, lol !!!

Hello bosley-ok but it depends where your average lies between 31 and 8!

I like nealo hold a substantial number of shares and it would not take much to reach my average, however agree with greekman that everyone is going to hang on every word they say and come out with different views!!

My own business has been going 65yrs - not me!! - and we have to run very fast to what it feels is standing still waiting for decisions from customers - no-one wants to make a decision on their own anymore - too frightened and insecure not like the old days.

Also nothing can be done without a secure contract in place - suppliers to M&S operate without one - always have MS won't sign anything, so once you have them saying yes - you have another long wait to sign the thing - so nothing is there until it's signed.

Running any business these days is no longer fun and enjoyable especially if you employ lot's of people and have to deal with large customers who think that you should be a charity-if you were at least you could get your vat back!!!!

So bear a thought for the poor lot at Stanelco - believe me they are feeling the pressure and it will be even more when they have a contract in place - then we will all be saying How are they going to cope!!!

Good Weekend to all.

pinnacle, i tend to agree with what you say, about things being tough when dealing with supermarkets. i said the same thing last year. we've seen just how cold asda can be when they dropped ferndale. there is no loyalty.

I totally agree also, there is far too much red tape nowadays and Terms and Conditions stretching over several pages, these things can take years, not months. Patience is a virtue. Think of the things you used to see on Tomorrows world (if you can remember that far back) and then think how long it was before you actually saw the items in the shops? The bigger the order (and cost) the longer customers keep you waiting. When you think about it, ASDA signed this agreement only a little over a year ago. As I said B4 I don't think Stanelco are hiding bad news and if all the interims state are that negotioations and testing are still ongoing then at least it shows the commitment on both SEO and ASDA's side and in the meantime there's still the sale of the ciggy butts and the Wrap 100 to watch out for which might provide some support to the SP.

By the way there's a new report issued today on Stanelco by Penny Shares online.com!

angusrjy

and the gist of the Penny Share report is .....?

The oily one

Just finished reading it, doesn't tell us anything we don't already know I'm afraid. Plus it was written on 7th June. Not sure why they took a month to publish it.

Old news people that report, at the time broker sentiment was hold to overbought, this week broker sentiment has moved back to buy. I'm inclined to look away from the report and into the markets as no reason why sentiment has changed unless an announcement is about to be made. My guess would be on greenseal but knowing SEO I wouldn't wanna put my money on it!!

Slightly off SEO but relating to business in general. I fully agree re red tape, government (we will obey the EU diktats) intervention. Why oh why don't they go back to simple issues. I am in a 1 man business, and won't consider expanding as, as soon as I employ a first employee, there are multiple forms etc to complete, so to me it's not worth the hassle. Sorry to go off thread but it really gets to me.
