Time to stand up and be counted in my opinion..

news is turning positive here...wontg be long before sentiment drives this one up..........

Bella Media mentioned in the Sunday Mail

The Mail on Sunday-"Bella Media-Shares in the 1.6 tiddler edged up 0.02p to 0. 14p on report of expansion plans for the Far East. That may be, but what some sources expect is a share issue to raise funds. significantly, Edgar Bronfman the US Billionaire behind the vast Seagram entertainment business holds a board seat at Balla Media and is planning to put up some of his own money for the fund raising. A roadshow to attract investors is thought to be underway."

Maybe we shouldn't take too much notice of Bella Vista whose sp goes up and down like a fiddler's elbow, even so the chart suggests that it bottomed out last Autumn and has since headed up, adding another 37% yesterday. "Everything hotting up", as MP remarked. This must all help PCM's upward momentum at some stage.
sd.

Can anybody confirm the actual number of shares in issue? i've got 12.5 million billion, which is from there website. Is this correct?

LOL

Didn't mean to put million billion! just billion.. thanks.

With so many shares in issue does anybody think they'll be share consolidation and what will be the pro's and con's? Theoretically consolidation shouldn't be a problem as far as share value is protected in my opinion. Its just a balancing act between the number of shares in issue and the value of the companys equity.

Really like the look of the new board and the direction the company is taking, long term this has massive potential.

There may be share consolidation it wouldn't do any harm, don't forget this share did get to 15 or 17p in the mad days. Patience will be rewarded as mp puts it, a good one to accumulate while we are waiting.

Driver, agree that patience will be rewarded. Also feels good to be on at the bottom (well hopefully). One thing to note is that since the mad days, extra shares have been issued, which might have to be cleared before we see any significant movement northwards.

Topped up today on the dip it went through as a sell.

I also topped up today and it appeared to show as a sell?

croeso
Like I have said before a good one to accumulate while we are waiting.

Yep. D'accord. Good time to accumulate at a knock down. (But not aardvaarks) 8-)

All the 15's are buys about 5m shares I was quoted 15 to buy, by Barclays Stockbrockers this morning, thats why the sp is creeping back up.

I am quietly picking up a few whenever I have some small amounts left over after trading--I'm not expecting much more than a creep up until revenues start coming through. then I feel/hope it will really wake up!

Like we said before a good one to accumulate while we are waiting, but you got to keep an eye when to buy I paid 17 a couple of days ago.

News and Press Coverage from the Sit-Up web site. worth another look.


Sit-up channels closes license deal
Released 22/07/05

London 22nd July 2005 - Pacific Media today announces that it and its wholly-owned subsidiary Pacific Media Asia Auctions Limited (PMAA), have entered into a licensing agreement (Agreement) with sit-up Limited ("sit-up"), conditional upon certain matters described below. The license has been granted for the exclusive right for PMAA to copy, adapt and exploit the price-drop tv and bid tv television channels and website formats, and the intellectual property rights that underpin these formats (including the know how required to operate the formats successfully and the bespoke elements of the computer systems) for any media or retail platform (the Format) in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. Pacific Media will guarantee the obligations of PMAA under the Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company and PMAA aim to launch sit-up branded television channels in each of the regions the license covers. These branded channels will operate alongside the Companys existing TV home-shopping operations. Subject to obtaining the appropriate funding and shareholder consents needed, the Directors expect to launch the Format during the third quarter of 2006.

Under the Agreement, PMAA will pay to sit-up license fees of US$14.0 million plus, over the first 28 months following the first anniversary of the launch, royalties totaling US$6,427,988 and thereafter will pay two per cent of turnover relating to the Format for the remainder of the term of the Agreement. sit-up will also be granted an option to subscribe for 219,298,246 new Ordinary Shares of the Company at nominal value.

The license has an initial term of 20 years, with options to extend the term for up to 50 years, provided certain minimum turnover and broadcasting hours conditions are satisfied.

As previously announced by the Company, the right to enter into the Agreement was previously held by MediaXposure Limited (MediaXposure), a related party to the Company. MediaXposure and the Company have worked together in investigating this opportunity. Subject to shareholder approval, the Company has agreed for PMAA to acquire such rights and has agreed to reimburse MediaXposure all costs and expenses incurred by it, amounting to US$1,700,000, plus interest, and has agreed to pay MediaXposure an additional sum of US$500,000.

The Agreement and the arrangements with MediaXposure are each subject to the Company obtaining relevant shareholder consents, and are also subject to receipt by the Company of the appropriate funds required to finance the matters set out in the Agreement. The Directors are currently reviewing a number of fundraising opportunities which they intend to update shareholders on in due course.

sit-up is one of the UKs fastest growing TV retailers, hosting a portfolio of TV home shopping channels that currently consists of bid tv, price-drop tv and Screenshop. sit-up's live channels have a collective customer base of over 2 million people and its channels are watched each month by in excess of 5 million viewers. sit-up, which was launched in 2000, achieved turnover for the year ended 31 December 2004 of 206.1 million and profit before tax of 11.5 million. sit-up is ultimately owned by Telewest Global Inc, the broadband communications company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Screenshop Ltd.

Building on the solid progress we have made since the start of the year, this significant agreement with sit-up brings us closer to achieving Pacific Medias key aims: firstly, to become one of this regions most innovative retailers; and secondly, to deliver value to our shareholders and customers commented Pacific Medias Executive Chairman, Darren Shaw, from Hong Kong. Our operations have turned the corner, and this agreement with sit-up, a fast-growing business led by a young and innovative management team, provides a perfectly complementary platform for Pacific Media to build sustainable long term growth.

sit-up Founder Director Ashley Faull welcomed the Agreement with Pacific Media, stating: The professionalism, experience and local knowledge of the Pacific Media team in Asia provides us with a strong alliance with which we can leverage our highly successful and unique channel concepts in the exciting markets across China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Further details of the Agreement and the arrangements with MediaXposure will also be provided to shareholders in due course.

thanks for the tip-I'll remember that. just bought another long term two today being picked up by fund managers at the moment--not that they are always right!!
they are CLE a hot area and possible future bubble-good report on them in last Sunday Times-they hold a stake in Biofuels and 50% of an exchange market in carbon emissions and this is what everyone's excited about-not much reseach available yet. also one called Billing Services-hot in USA apparently so I've picked a tiny holding-BILL. let me know what you think.

There is nothing for BILL on Digitallook,is this an IPO and ,if so,when?
Can't find anything under CLE.Help,please moneyplus.
Ethel

BILL floated in June and you can find it quoted on comdirect/squaregain site-apparently the directors are disappointed at the lack of interest in the company as outsourced billing is very big in the US should take off here soon. they are doing the rounds of the fund managers and some are buying in early. they collect billings for telecom companies. CLE can also be found on comdirect-this company recently floated and has gone up quickly. set up by the CEO of Brit insurance and a partner to invest in companies involved in climate control hence the name of the co. Climate Exchange. They have invested in Ceres Power, Biofuels, Trading Emissions and have a 50% stake in the European Exchange in carbon emissions--growth in that apparently is rocketing according to the Sunday Times last weekend and Icap have increased their dealers from one junior to 8 full time in 9 months.
companies who need power can buy these carbon emissions from companies who have gone green and don't need their full entitlement under the Kyoto agreement-they do this through the dealers on these exchanges. That is my simple understanding of it and it sounds like a huge potential market particularly if they can get America onboard. I'm sure the experts on this board could tell us more.
I just thought I'd pick up a few through a telephone buy on comdirect. CLE is hot but BILL might take quite a time for anyone to want to buy it so I've only bought 700. hope your investing is going well Ethel--I've just found I'm up to my Capital Gains limit and wondering whether to switch to spreadbetting for the rest of the year-I couldn't bear to stop and do nothing!!

added to PCM--will be looking forward to even higher profits now!! still time for the patient to get in.

Does anyone why the price has dropped? So many buys yet price is not going up, any reasons for this?
