Pursuit Dynamics - A British success story in the making? (PDX)     

Andy - 31 Aug 2003 11:58

Pursuit Dynamics plc is a UK based research and development company, which was founded in 2000 to develop and commercialise a revolutionary pumping and propulsion technology. Pursuit Dynamics (symbol: PDX) was listed on the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange in May 2001.

PDX 25 Sonic.

The PDX Technology is a steam-based system that has applications in both pumping and marine propulsion. It is cheap to manufacture, extremely robust, contains no moving parts and is virtually impossible to block. Pursuit Dynamics owns 100% of the Intellectual Property Rights that surround the PDX Technology.

Pursuit Dynamics is now working towards the commercialisation of the technology it has developed.

Pursuit are rumoured to be close to closing their first deals, which may be in the food processing industry.

dclinton,

I agree, and I do believe the deals will come, and the firefighting potential, if realised, could be absoluteley huge, because saving lives is so highly valued, and there really is a worldwide market for that!

Sadly, no RNS as yet today, but I continue to hold, and am as confident in the product as ever, having seen it in action last year at PDX HQ, Royston.

dclinton - 01 Apr 2004 21:12 - 183 of 1003

Thunderbirds crashed a bit today. Any ideas why?

In Shares mag today they printed an email from a punter asking if the deal announced on 11th March with a confectioner was that expected or if another was imminent. James Quinn confirmed this was the 'major' deal expected. Guess some punters disappointed it wasnt Cadbury's and bailed out en mass.
This company still has massive potential however and a deal is a deal. Stick with it.

dclinton - 01 Apr 2004 22:43 - 185 of 1003

Pah! Short termers.

ssanebs - 02 Apr 2004 00:00 - 186 of 1003

pdx have always mentioned the unnamed company as a confectioner and soft drinks company. The company they have named welcome food makes sauces and no soft drinks. Further, when i rang the company and asked was that announcement related to the extension until 30th april a few days ago, i was told that 'it did not say that in the statement'. Also the statement for welcome foods says a pdx pump has been at a plant for over a month, if you remember the confectioner trialled it for many months and paid 15k for the the last three.

dclinton - 02 Apr 2004 09:52 - 187 of 1003

Yes, there do seem to be some discrepencies. I guess time will tell if another deal is in progress. In the meantime, seems like a good opportunity to top up.

only 14 trading days left for the confectioners extension

AdieH - 08 Apr 2004 13:59 - 191 of 1003

Does anyone know why the move upwards today, is there something brewing regarding the contract? Article in Shares mag a while ago where the broker was giving a forecast price of 4.00 of all deals get signed? (not ramping).

ssanebs - 08 Apr 2004 16:28 - 192 of 1003

shares mag stated that the confectionary deal was still pending

Andy - 09 Apr 2004 19:35 - 193 of 1003

ssanebs,

Yes, last week there was a reply in the Reader's Letters section of Shares Magazine asking whether the Welcome Foods deal was in fact the large confectionary deal expected to be concluded in the near future.

The journalist replied that it was, but this is not the case, and this week Shares corrected that statement.

I rang James at Shares and mentioned that I didn't think this was the large deal, and then rang PDX, who referred me to their PR co. I spoke to a lady there, and she confirmed it is NOT the large deal, and she would ring James to clarify that.

I think both James, and Shares Magazine should be commended for being open and honest, taking on board the correct information, and issuing the correction.

PDX have updated their website with the fire fighting applications;

clip_image002.jpg

The sub-40 micron mist produced by the PDX system demonstrates true gas-like qualities with amazing fire suppressive performance and heralds a new generation of water-mist technology.


The innovative, supersonic PDX technology from Pursuit Dynamics plc is now being commercially developed for the fire safety industry, offering an exciting new generation of water-mist fire suppression systems.

A supersonic shock-wave is used to produce a sub 40 micron water-mist, demonstrating true gas-like qualities. At a system pressure of just 6 bar, and at nozzle exit velocities up to 1,500 metres per second, the system offers outstanding fire suppressive performance with discharges up to 40 metres from the nozzles.

The wide range of potential applications for this new generation of water-mist systems include process industries; petro-chemical installations; marine & shipping; aerospace & aviation; schools; care-homes; turbines and machinery; tunnels; large spaces (eg; aircraft hangars); computer IT and telecom; electrical equipment; electrical transformers; ducting; deep fat fryers; metros & railways;.... as well as local authority & airport fire service; CBRN emission control & decontamination; smoke scrubbing and other specialist applications.

Pursuit Fire Limited are keen to establish strategic partnerships, and encourage joint international ventures, in the development of supersonic PDX water-mist systems for a wide range of applications, hazards and risks.

This is a good site for marketing & advertising in the firefighting industry of PDX Firemist.

legins,

Agreed, and if you click on the pursuit icon at the top left hand side, it directs you to their fire fighting website at PDX!

I really think this offers a worldwide potential, and as saving lives is paramaount, this has a good chance of being embraced by firefighters, and, therefore, of commercial success, IMHO.

Legins - 18 Apr 2004 16:15 - 197 of 1003

Andy,

Agreed with your views and my gut feeling is the firefighting industry will take up this technology in their equipment very rapidly. My thoughts are that a company like Kidde Plc would be in discussions to obtain a licence and royalty deal already and best placed to commercially bring the product onto the market.

Legins - 18 Apr 2004 16:34 - 198 of 1003

Can't remember whether I've pasted the link for this article before but never the less makes interesting read for a wet Sunday afternoon.
