Now that we all know what the prospects for MOS are i.e. damn good, thought I'd get a new thread going and just highlight MOS' attractions for any new investors.

Key highlights:

* Significant progress made, rationalisation programme almost complete

* Acquisitions integrated well

* International marketing network established

* Record order books, enquiry levels high, several new customers won

* Recent Director buys

From the Chairman's statement:

Outlook

Over the past year the management team has extended the product range, put in
place in-house manufacturing, rationalised the existing business and greatly
expanded the marketing effort, opening up significant new markets to MOS
products. Once the acquisitions have been fully integrated MOS will offer a
wider product range to a broader market and have a much reduced cost base. We
have record order books, we have attracted major new customers and we are
targeting new markets, worldwide. Overall, we have made good progress and the
outlook remains extremely positive.

Trading Update

MOS International PLC ('MOS'), the oilfield services company, announces that
trading is in line with market expectations. TURNOVER FOR THE YEAR TO 31st MARCH 2005 IS EXPECTED TO BE CIRCA 10M COMPARED WITH 1.05M IN THE YEAR TO 31st MARCH 2004.

MOS currently has an order book in excess of 7m for delivery prior to the year
end.

The recent acquisitions have integrated well, the rationalisation programme at
MOS is almost complete and that at Ansell Jones will be completed in this
financial year.

Tender and enquiry levels remain high and the Board is positive regarding the
future. Significant progress has been made and the business is well on the road
to recovery, with turnover forecast to show a further considerable increase, in
the next financial year.

On a turnover of 10million with a profit of say 1million, this company is on a P/E ratio of just 8 (market cap being around 8million at present). This company has been overlooked by the institutions and investors alike and is due a big re-rating soon IMHO. DYOR as usual.

Hope the enthusiasm hasn't disappeared from MOI, one to hold ready for trading reports which should confirm the progress being made with hopefully a response in the sp.

Raising money for US expansion vai Patriot is cetainly a less dilutive issue for holders of MOI plus the enhanced profile, although I woould have wished it was a slightly better markt that the OTCBB - any views on that particualr exchange?

SP holding pretty steady after the onslaught of the last two weeks - looking for a ride up ono good news, as you say.

sd,don't know much about otcbb. i do seem to remember an article that wasn't very complimantary about it, but i may be getting my wires crossed. i was hoping someone more knowledgable would enlighten us all as to wether this is good news or not.

bos, that was my concern in the back of my mind, but don't know much either.

The main issue is not the quality the OTCBB but the increased likleyhood of of US contracts for a US based company and how much MOI will raise by floating 28% of PMH. Much more than they paid for it. Very smart manoeuvre by the board.

Helpful comment, gromore. Just what I was thinking! Eric

hope you are right gromore . it hasn't done the share price much good though.

bos, have to be patient on this one, I think. May not be in your character - although you did exhibit a degree of it in sticking with SEO through the hard days. May need to wait for Q1 trading statement unless there is an earlier contract to announce.

Eric

Can now buy at .65p, close to the placing price!

Can it survive at such a silly price?

Held it for years without much hope.

Best buy price today is .67p. Are we on the way at last?!!!

gromore

I agree with you. The Yanks are a massively patriotic lot and would choose an American listed company whenever possible. However I was hoping for a much bigger share price as we approached results publication. I see that on advfn they are asking for predictions of sp for whenever results are published, shall we do the same? I think PW will save some good news to bring out with results so my guess is 1.5p but hoping for 2.5p. I guess it depends on outlook and whether or not it has made it into profit over the past year.

Bit dissapoinyed in all the fundraising but still have every faith in this company and it's management. The fundraising is for all the right reasons and the company seems well organised and has massive potential!

love to believe that , BUT will market makers really lift prices from fractions of a penny into real pennies?, doubt it.
Re-valuation req`d, as I have been blarting on about for ages.

Chrissie,
The more MOI ploughs money into expanding the business at this stage the sooner we are likey to see large profits. Without any investment we would see a good profit for last year in percentage terms but little prospect of rapid growth. I think the current dip in the price is more to do with the mms allowing their mates, institutional investors, to get their ducks in a row before they jack up the price to reflect MOI's true worth. It will become much more apparent what the potential for MOi is after the results when we see the gross profit margins involved in the constituant companies and their proportion of the turnover. The results will hopefully be follwed by a broker's note recommending MOi as a strong buy. Your 1.5p to 2.5p prediction is very likely especially with the a broker's recommendation.

Sequestor, Consolidation is very likely given the number of shares in circulation and their lowly price. I would be very surprised if this was not announced at the next AGM.

certainly hope so-re. Consol., been begging for it for ages

cheers.

Can now buy at .61p.......below the placing price!

Whats going on here then, a little worrying???

bought a bit more today at 0.59 shows as a sell,i am not worried!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
