Restoration of Shares and Trading Update



Further to the RNS announcement on 10 March 2005 regarding initial talks
relating to a potential significant acquisition, the Board of CMS WebView plc
('CMS' or 'the Company') confirms these discussions have now been discontinued
and CMS has requested the immediate restoration of trading in its shares.



The Board felt that the structure of the deal and potential benefits would not
be in the best interests of CMS shareholders at this point in time, when
factoring in current opportunities for CMS to strengthen its position by
ensuring key business is secured in 2005.



Strategic Review



On 29 November 2004, CMS announced it was embarking on a Strategic Review after
a shortfall in anticipated new sales of its proprietary TDI modular software
system.



CMS Directors have now completed the Review, which included all aspects of the
business, including the sales and marketing strategy, overseas operations,
central administration and the continuing development of the core technology.



The Directors were of the view that in the absence of guaranteed significant new
TDI orders it was necessary to maintain the Company's positive cash position by
cutting costs in areas that would not compromise service to existing clients or
damage the prospects of winning new business.



One of the largest cost savings has been achieved by closing the US offices in
Chicago and New York, and by the regrettable redundancies of all US office
staff. At the same time, the UK headcount has now been reduced through a
combination of redundancies and by not replacing non-core personnel after
natural wastage. Moreover, CMS has successfully renegotiated contracts with a
number of its suppliers and advisers on more favourable financial terms, and has
consolidated its operation regarding UK premises.



As a result of the Q4 2004 and Q1 2005 cost cutting measures, the Company has
reduced estimated losses for 2005 by around 50%, based on the conservative view
of CMS securing no additional TDI or data feed orders this year. Further cost
savings during the year will also be implemented.



New Contract and New Business Strategy



CMS is delighted to announce that a key Exchange client is placing a new order
for significant enhancements to the TDI system as part of the Exchange's
changing business requirements, which will be delivered by the end of May 2005.



With the new contract in place, and still assuming the conservative stance that
there will be no further new orders of significance for TDI in 2005, losses for
the year are expected to be approximately 550,000, leaving cash reserves of
around 700,000 at the year end.



In terms of new business development, CMS is focusing strongly on a revised
sales campaign over the next three months. As part of the campaign, it will be
primarily targeting prospects that arose from the 2004 and Q1 2005 marketing
effort to exchanges, banks, and financial data/system suppliers. Specific focus
is being placed on those prospects that could lead to additional revenues but
will incur only minimal development costs and associated overheads.

what a bummer! knew it would end in tears ! will wait for this to hit the bottom and pick up a few more (imho about 1.25P)

Do we know if there is any investigation into whether someone made a small fortune before trading was suspended, probably on the back of sensitive info......

At least the cash position is good... no need to raise more funds this yr.
It's critical that this time we really do get the expected orders "later this yr".
I think SP may slowly creep up a little... but will soar with any good orders announced... they have got to deliver this time!

hi skyhigh, looks like we are holding the fort here,

i hope you are right. extended contracts and new products, cost cuttings coming into play, all sounds very positive. I am not sure if they will soar given investors past experiences but lets hope so. I would be happy with a good steady rise rather than the flatlining we have at the bottom.

lets see,

I am sitting n a massive loss - so will be happy to see a gradual increase - although I do not see much chance of that happening frrom the latest results. Still looking on the positive side - I do need some losses to offset the capital gains on SEO

bhunt1910, global and skyhigh are you like me in with the institutions around 14p. If they were in I thought I'd get in - been in bottom drawer for over a year now may brush the dust off and cross my fingers for some orders being signed. The product TDi etc must have impressed the institutions perhaps the time is now right.

Not quite on your own guys! This was and remains my Number One cock up! Sitting on quite a loss and have more or less written it off! Would be amazing if it ever recovered!

Back to sleep now. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

pth

I thought join in - me too - and I know of two other guys - all sitting on substantial loss on this one. Good to see at least something is stirring. Hope for the best. p/271 sharing the pain !!

Hi all

I did hold these for about 18 months but got frustrated and decided to bail out at the beginning of the month and spread bet the Dow. Have doubled what I got back from CWV but still need to double that, and then double that again to get back to break-even on my initial CWV investment. What a dog!!

I really wish you all luck with this one and hope a nice profit comes to you all eventually. After your patience, you really deserve it.

Regards.

Mark P

thankyou everyone for coming out and sharing the burden of loss......
I am at about 12p , unfortunately at this time the tax loss/ capital gains doesn't help me. good luck markp, i bottled out of trying to make it up elsewhere for fear of missing the rebound lol.

cheers

GN

no need for group hugs at losses anonymous just yet...........

143k buys, 878k sells and SP closes 9% higher!! Something brewing?

lets hope so!!

Some big volumes [for CWV ] traded last few days,after weeks/monthes ofapparent rigor mortis.

I am over 30k down on this one too - but have been saving it to ofset CGT on SEO - if it ever comes good

Baza

down 17k on CMS - since a long time now - like many others - hanging on in the hope that someday ????????????? it will come good - not much point in selling. p/271

got my avarage down to 9.57 still working on getting below 5p unless, i hope it begins to rise ?.

Like all of us, I've come this far, might as well go the full hog.

Does anyone know were suehelen went to ? would like her input on this nearly 2 yrs on......

good luck all holders & hang in there, things will come good I'm sure

the saying " a wing and a prayer c" comes to mind !!!

Baza

I expect but would not like to presume that suehelen is sitting on a tropical island enjoying the profits of her excellent postings....it feels like we've all been led a merry dance. no doubt she will re-appear with another alias when the yacht needs a service .....
