garyble,
Not really. If you exercise the option below the option price you loose money.
For example, you have an option at 1 and the sp is 90p you would be better off using your cash to buy the shares on the open market.
If the sp reaches 1.50p you would be better off exercising the option.

Note... Usually certain of facts I post but had a bottle of vino, so can someone either confirm or contradict, seeing double, going to bed).

Fred1new - 01 Sep 2006 23:10 - 19560 of 27111

Be careful how many wives or girl friends you have in bed.

Or make sure you have a good excuse.

Or at least had a medical before you understake the arduous duty/ies.

ptholden - 02 Sep 2006 00:26 - 19561 of 27111

If you have an option at 5p why would you want to exercise the option at below that price? The whole idea in subscribing for options is that there is a possibilty that the SP rises so that you can exercise at a profit. If the SP reaches 10p for example, you have made 5p profit per share.

Pth,

Cheers looks like you agree with me, so the wine did not cloud my tiny brain too much.

Fred1,

If I get chance will remember your words of wisdom.

Away now for 2 weeks. Keep an eye on SEO for me. Hopefully a higher sp when I return.
Cheers Greekman.

RHPS Hold,limit buy price 15p,target 50p.

Mad Pad - 02 Sep 2006 12:29 - 19564 of 27111

Todays FT,entire page on supermarkets and sustainability.A few points .Marks and Spencer" looking into biodegradble wrapping on sandwich packs".Sainsburys "Testing fully compostable GM-free wrap on organic apples and potatoes".Anyone know what the biodegradeable wrapping might be and "the GM-free wrap"confirms what my contact at Sainsburys said about them having a GM free policy.No mention of SEO starpol or greenseal.

hewittalan6 - 02 Sep 2006 13:44 - 19565 of 27111

MP,
Could still be GS and Starpol. These can both be described as GM free. It is the crops they come from that are GM, the product is GM free. Further SEO have had discussions in the past with Sainsburys and if memory serves me correctly, M&S have been mentioned before as well, though I cannot recall in what context.

Mad Pad - 02 Sep 2006 14:27 - 19566 of 27111

Alan ,starpol is derived from GM crops and I believe this is unacceptable to Sainsburys.Apparantly it is possible to produce starpol from non GM crops but this is more expensive.There was a discussion on this board a few weeks ago after I had spoken to Sainsburys so I wont bang on about it any more.But yes hopefully it is Starpol but it would be good to have it mentioned by name.Just imagine"Sainsburys and Marks and Spencer are at present conducting trials with a wrap tradenamed Starpol .This is a fully biodegrable boiplastic derived from corn and has been developed by Stanelco plc a leader in this field.Should these supermarkets adopt this"green" product it will most likely become industry standard"oh well no harm in dreaming!!PS I have just seen from Pauls site that Stuart Lendrum from Sainsburys is speaking at the 1st European bioplastics conference in November. It is a small world isnt it.

Tonyrelaxes - 02 Sep 2006 14:40 - 19567 of 27111

You a script writer, Pad?
Should be!!
LOL

Mad Pad - 02 Sep 2006 14:58 - 19568 of 27111

Might make more money at it!Read my PS just posted.

hewittalan6 - 02 Sep 2006 15:22 - 19569 of 27111

MP,
I refer you to your own post, 19496, where Sainsburys and Waitrose said it made sense for all supermarkets to work together on sustainability and welcomed the invitation from Andy Bond of Asda to the conference on exactly that issue.
Odd then, that the FT should then come out with their bit, now.
Further (and I make no apology for this), an unconfirmed source, who I neither know well or have any reason to either believe or doubt, tells me that a trip to their local Asda saw "new" bags for the fresh fruit and Veg areas, for the customer to fill. other than the fact that the bags were of a new style and type, they could tell me no more, and I have been unable to confirm this independantly, so take your pick over whether it is real and related or not.
Alan

Mad Pad - 02 Sep 2006 15:30 - 19570 of 27111

Alan the source for my post 19496 was also the FT.Whats odd?Todays feature is virtually a full page and well worth the read it also starts off with Mr Bond and the conference.

hewittalan6 - 02 Sep 2006 16:17 - 19571 of 27111

Odd was the wrong word. Co-incidental would have been a better choice.
I was referring to the fact that Asda are going with SEO. Sainsburys choose to accept Andy Bonds invitation to join them in a multilateral approach (possibly) to sustainability and then Sainsburys are happy to talk to the press about their green initiatives.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, Asda agree to drop exclusivity to allow a quicker and easier rollout, and shortly after, Sainsburys tell us they are testing a new wrap for their organic produce, at about the same time as SEO tell us they are in testing for a couple of months with their packaging (which many of us took to mean with someone other than Asda).
Tantalising threads that one could pull together however one chooses. They could be totally unconnected or they could be an intriguing picture emerging from the fog.
Your own choice.
Alan

Mad Pad - 02 Sep 2006 16:25 - 19572 of 27111

Lets hope thay are connected,I'm off to Sainsburys to look at the organic apples,quite sad really!

tweenie - 02 Sep 2006 16:27 - 19573 of 27111

For all the news flow , the bottom line is theres still no deals done.
Or have i missed something.
Would love to buy more shares but won't risk anymore cash until some cash generation is announced by SEO.
The onus is on them to deliver- and bloody soon.

hewittalan6 - 02 Sep 2006 16:34 - 19574 of 27111

You are both right.
Tweenie, I aint putting any more in till I see something concrete cos it could all still blow up (and I aint got the balls or funds of Tony).
MP. yes you are very sad. ;-)
Alan

garyble - 02 Sep 2006 16:40 - 19575 of 27111

GM & PTH,

Yep you're absolutely righth, I got confused {no vino involved} thinking that there'd be a benifit if taxable, but there is no tax to pay in certain requirements are met.

Mad Pad - 02 Sep 2006 17:23 - 19576 of 27111

Thax Alan.The bag of organic apples has"compostable 7P0024 "printed all over it and also"this packaging is made from Mater-Bi R ,a non GM renewable sources and should breakdown..."Please somebody tell me this has something to do with Stanelco.PS..It hasn't its an Italian product and GM FREE.WAKE UP STANELCO

Oilywag - 02 Sep 2006 18:04 - 19577 of 27111

I can feel another e-mail to Stanelco stirring in my loins.

This really is very important to the future of Starpol because more and more supermarkets are going to respond to their customers' demands for non GM bio-degradable products.

The swing to non GM has been really strong and surely the company must have anticipated it. If not they have been asleep.

As I quoted from Confucius before, "creature with head in sand gets arse kicked!" Has anyone ever met a rich ostrich???? Mmmm ... yea, me neither!

The oily one

Ron Kleet - 02 Sep 2006 18:46 - 19578 of 27111

Cant understand investors piling into these no hope stocks when you can buy good snall companies around with better prospects and making lots of money now.

An example is EKT market cap only 13.5 million and has been making millions the last few years so much so the nett asset value has increased 7 fold. Its got net cash no intangibles and pays a dividend as well. Red Hot Penny shares has a price target of 25p as against 17.5p to buy. Check out the EKT thread.
