banjomick - 15 Jun 2004 08:48

INTELLIGENT INVESTING WITH BANJO,well sort of! (Ed-hmmmm-lol)

Galleon Holdings plc has three key divisions:Galleon Entertainment for entertainment type IP,Croco Worldwide for product IP,Phoenix for interactive TV services for broadcasters in China/South East Asia which includes Robot Information Technology (Lushy Assets ('Yunbo')) who are a wireless interactive platform service provider in China who will work alongside Phoenix to enable GON to hold on to a greater part of the generated revenue and so increase the profit margin......think that's the plan! :-)

This makes Galleon Holdings a 'One Stop Shop' to develop and complete new and existing IP's.

26th June 2008 Galleon – And Its 'Edgy' Strategy by Tom Bulford

snakey - 14 Sep 2004 23:27 - 18 of 1609

a3,
that may well be the value this time in 2005 when the Oggies take off for real,
especially with the potential spin offs that will surely follow.
very best of luck and don`t be tempted to sell.

Ted1 - 15 Sep 2004 10:33 - 19 of 1609

I have been watching this for a couple of weeks.
What the hell happened yesterday up 9500%
Can someone explain?

snakey - 15 Sep 2004 12:47 - 20 of 1609

consolidation of shares of 1new = 100old, if that`s the correct terminology

willfagg - 17 Sep 2004 09:56 - 21 of 1609

Just why is this share price collapsing?There is no negative news and todays fall on just 66000 shres traded is a joke.The directors have issued a statemnet (23 August) saying they know of no reason for the fall in the share price - yet it continued falling. Dont the MM's setting the share price have any responsibility for reducing a shares price to 20% of its value without any comment? Its like fighting shadows

banjomick - 21 Sep 2004 00:10 - 22 of 1609

Below is an extract from From UK-Analyst.com: September 20th 2004

Media group Galleon Holdings saw an uplift in its share price following an acquisition announcement. The group has bought a controlling interest in Hollywood Animation Studio for 12 million shares, prior to its recent consolidation. Galleon now owns 51% of the studios, which is in the process of making a 11-minute animation of the group's Oggies characters. The company also bought 2 more cartoon properties - Professor Winklebottom's Universe (which apparently smells) and Malcolm (which is apparently a cult). The shares added 1.5p to 22p.

Bit more publicty doesnt hurt

Happy1 - 11 Oct 2004 22:15 - 23 of 1609

Fall overdone ?

snakey - 11 Oct 2004 22:40 - 24 of 1609

this one is 50-50 to fly or fall, but if it flies, the altitude potential is fantastic. good luck etc

ptholden - 11 Oct 2004 22:45 - 25 of 1609

God only knows what impulsive thought process made me buy some of these. An unmitigated disaster over the last month or so. Share consolidations never seem to work out in the Investor's favour. They are more volatile now, (downwards), than they were before. Bust by Xmas at this rate.

PTH

Happy1 - 12 Oct 2004 21:33 - 26 of 1609

What you people are forgetting is the following;

1. Directors bought a shed load at the equivelent of one pound.

2. Nav will cover todays price shoudl the worst happen.

They have a show in Cannes comming up. New exposure through Durlacher and the recent aquisition to take into account.

ptholden - 12 Oct 2004 21:43 - 27 of 1609

Happy

Must admit to being a tadge pi**ed off last night, following the 15% drop on top of all the other falls. I haven't forgotten what they may have in the pipeline, but I also wouldn't add too much credence to Director's buys. Yes, it can be a good indicator of justified faith, but also an attempt to try and display all is well, when actually it is not. I understand from research that it is pretty much a draw when trying to draw conclusions from Director dealing. In any event, I don't have too many of these, (even less after the consolidation!), so will hang on whatever.

Regards

PTH

banjomick - 12 Oct 2004 22:25 - 28 of 1609

Been in this sinking ship since february but still have faith,it may take another 6 months for me to get anything back.......if at all!
The Cannes festival ended last week with no reports on gon or the name they use within the company for the festival(sorry can't remember name at moment)
No recent RSN's and what they have put out has been poor-imo.If one of their offerings takes off then there should be good profit to be made but it's all if's and but's at moment,well it has been for the last 8 months!!
Time for a banjo tune one thinks!

moneyman - 13 Oct 2004 15:58 - 29 of 1609

Looks like the overhang has been cleared.

Poster on ADVFN has talked to the company and Durlacher who advise a news update will be released shortly.

moneyman - 13 Oct 2004 16:09 - 30 of 1609

Get your orders in.

Looks like it's on a roll.

banjomick - 13 Oct 2004 18:47 - 31 of 1609

lets hope so,but i wouldn't bank on it.Posters on ADVFN have contacted the company on many occassions with similar replies.Anyway fingers crossed,this time it might be different!

moneyman - 13 Oct 2004 18:50 - 32 of 1609

Aye agree with that. Seems there are a few who will be adding tomorrow. Can see a few people looking back into the small cap sector with the uncertainty in this market.

moneyman - 14 Oct 2004 08:31 - 33 of 1609

Continuing it's upward momentum this morning.

moneyman - 14 Oct 2004 12:19 - 34 of 1609

Seems like market is short of stock. Nice rise again today.

moneyman - 14 Oct 2004 14:38 - 35 of 1609

Seems impossible to buy online in any qty !! Severe shortage or what.

ptholden - 14 Oct 2004 14:41 - 36 of 1609

Was restricted to 2500 this morning, haven't checked to see if it's still the same. Should push up the bid.

Galleon Holdings plc

('Galleon' or the 'Company')

Placing to raise 1.2 million

Conversion of Loan Notes & Trading Update

Placing and Loan Conversion

Galleon Holdings plc is delighted to announce that it has today completed a
Placing of 8,093,337 Ordinary Shares at 15p per share to raise 1,214,000
(before expenses) through the Company's broker Seymour Pierce Limited.

In addition the Board has decided to convert 126,000 of existing loans in the
Company into 840,000 new Ordinary Shares and a further 145,000 new Ordinary
Shares will be issued in relation to the acquisitions of J Christopher
Entertainment and Malcolm, announced on 20 September. Included in the existing
loans is 75,000 in respect of loans made by James Driscoll whose beneficial
interest is now 2,441,150 shares representing 12.96% of the enlarged issued
share capital.

Application has therefore been made for a total of 9,078,337 new Ordinary
Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and dealings are expected to commence
on 12 November 2004.

James Driscoll M.B.E, Chairman, commented,

'I am delighted with the level of enthusiasm and appetite that we have seen for
this Placing, which reinforces the confidence that I, and our investors, have
in the future of the Company. The funds provided enable us to move the business
forward and capitalise on the many opportunities that the group is presented
with.'

Trading Update

The Company is pleased to report considerable developments during the second
half of 2004 which has seen Galleon's intellectual property portfolio continue
to increase.

J Christopher Entertainment (JCE)

The acquisition in June of JCE, the animation facility based in California, has
been the main contributor to recent developments. Our team in Hollywood has
worked with great enthusiasm and delivered animation of the highest quality. As
a result we have now completed one eleven minute episode of Oggies, a two
minute fully animated trailer for Professor Winklebottom's Universe (PWU) and a
two minute trailer in flash animation for Malcolm. We have recently returned
from Mipcom, the television festival in Cannes where these properties were
shown to the market for the first time. All three were received very positively
and we are presently following up interest expressed from TV distributors and
broadcasters in a number of international territories. These include the USA,
UK, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Canada, Netherlands and Russia. We have also
received co-production enquires for all three projects from two companies in
North America who are currently airing shows on the networks.

Over and above our own properties, our studio is also preparing budgets for
development and production of animation projects for third parties. In October
we completed the editing of a 26 half hour networked animation series in North
America on behalf of Bardel Entertainment in Canada. Three home video and DVD
releases for their award winning Silverwing cartoon series are now available
for worldwide distribution.

Peppers Patrol

Peppers Patrol, the pre-school animation series is now in development. Our
Joint Venture partners, Alibi Communications plc, have selected Siriol
Animation, Cardiff, producers of the new Fireman Sam series for the BBC as the
studio to undertake the work. They are currently in the process of modelling
some of the characters.

Oggies

Jason Blewitt was appointed to the group in September 2004 as Marketing and
Promotions Executive for our property, Oggies, an animation largely focussed
around action sports which includes surfing, snowboarding, skateboarding and
mountain biking. Jason is a former Australian National Long Board Surfing
Champion three years consecutively and previously operations manager at Surfing
Australia, he is well known to surfing, skateboarding and snowboarding
associations across the world and is currently negotiating promotional and
licensing opportunities. Contracts have been signed with the British Surfing
Association and Surfing Australia who will be launching Oggies surf academies
in 2005 to teach children to surf safely.

The safer surfing on the Internet initiative with Fistral Freddie, a character
from Oggies, was launched in October 2003 by the Metropolitan Police in
conjunction with Crimestoppers and is planned to be rolled out to schools
nationally during 2005. This project is designed to warn children about the
potential dangers of the Internet and in particular chat rooms. Our association
with The Met and Crimestoppers once again demonstrates the strength of our
portfolio of characters.

Croco Worldwide Sourcing

Croco Worldwide Sourcing has also made progress since acquisition in May 2004,
we have signed exclusive licences for global distribution of two premiums, on
and in pack toy related products, these have recently been accepted and
approved by a blue chip client who is considering using them for promotions
during 2005. Croco also own promotional rights in PWU, which JCE has now
developed into an animation concept for the world market.

We have spent the past six months putting the cornerstones of the business in
place which has meant us reviewing our strategic objectives. We remain
committed to building a valuable IPR portfolio and with the addition of JCE and
Croco it gives us the opportunity to retain more rights ownership. We have also
identified new income streams that we are now in a position to exploit which
were not available to us previously.
