Good buying volumes on friday.

Maanged a 10% rise on Friday but still undervalued..

No mention in this week-ends press.Possibility of buying 7.75p or less next week.With most recent news anything less than 8p looking a good buying opportunity.Won't hang around at these levels for too much longer.Have it on good authority that results are "soon".imho.dyor.

From t'other thread.

I don't know about others on here but when I hear ramper expressions such as 'mind-boggling', 'explosive' (even when used by non-rampers!) I immediately turn negative on a stock. Just my two cents worth.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Sound as though you are easily turned off and negative.ASC has been ramped like mad for good reasons.Simply mind boggling,explosive even up from 3p to 80p!

PPR listed on AIM @ 3p in April 2003. The company produce safety glass for cars and bought Filmtek latter part of 2003 which produces safety glass for other industries/buildings.Holding PPR from 4.5p a 70%+ profit to date therefore have more than a few cents worth to rub together.Recent contract announcements Thursday evening confirm further contract wins in the UK on top of those projects already completed.You add it up,projects completed and new wins since last results.Comes to ms.Aim is to have 20m turnover in five years. Company have clear strategy of international expansion.Huge growth potential.Airports,Train Stations,Banks in fact anything with glass.You name it and Pentagon can protect it.Sadly a world of terrorism,extremists,violence in one form or another.People and lives need protecting.Products are high quality and recognised endorsement in respect of vehicular glass.Worth researching and placing on your monitors is my two cents worth.Glib comments like yours do not impress me.Research is perhaps another word that turns you -ve as you clearly have not researched this company in my humble opinion.Very enthusiastic about the company and prospects.Advfn down or would copy and paste another poster where favourable comparisons made between Pentagon and Coca-Cola.Early stage and small cap.I'm bullish and have every reason to be.DYOR!

We shall see Lex! With a pre-tax profit of 253 pounds in June's interims, I guess the only way is up!

PENTAGON PROTECTION PLC
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Introduction and Financial Review

I am pleased to report that the period under review has been one of notable
progress for Pentagon Protection. The integration of Filmtek Ltd., Pentagon
Protection's first acquisition made in December 2003, following the April 2003
flotation on AIM, is progressing well. Our turnover has grown significantly and
we have made a robust recovery on profit with a stronger and fitter Company.
The Group's financial results from continuing operations for the six months to
31 March 2004 show turnover of #755,757, compared with #531,930 for the same
period last year.

Including the effects of the Filmtek acquisition, half-year turnover increased
to #1,464,819 against #1,165,914 for the whole of the year ended 30 September
2003. On profit, the Group significantly improved on last year's pre-tax losses
of #270,000 by breaking even for the period.

These results are broadly in line with management's expectations and strategy.
As indicated in my annual report for the year ended 30 September 2003, we
acquired Filmtek in order to underpin the Company's leadership in the delivery
of improved security and safety for glass of any kind, and this is reflected in
our figures and more broadly based business mix.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Filmtek Ltd.

Filmtek has, as anticipated, strengthened the Group's objective of becoming a
leading supplier of protective glass products across a broader client base and
adds substantial flat glass expertise to the Company.

Filmtek is in the process of undertaking several major projects both
domestically and internationally, especially in the Middle East. The Company's
clients include a number of global banks, international business houses and
government departments.

Pentagon Glass Tech

Pentagon Glass Tech Ltd., the original core of business of the Group which went
public on AIM, has been managing the market downturn in window tinting resulting
from recent legislation adjustments which have slowed demand for normal vehicle
tints to the driver and forward passenger windows. Significantly, your Company
has taken the opportunity to promote its proprietary SupaGlass higher protection
laminate across a number of existing and newly developed client opportunities.
We are actively engaged with the Department for Transport to promote our
product's safety and security aspects and, in addition, your Directors have
been strengthening relationships and business with the Fire Brigade, the
Metropolitan Police, the Ambulance Service and the Ministry of Defence.

Pentagon's progress with Original Equipment Manufacturers in the automotive
sector is also encouraging. We have secured business from Honda, Citroen, and
Wrightbus, and are due to commence projects with Volkswagen. Pentagon has become
the recommended supplier for all London-area Mercedes dealers, a first for a
company in our sector.

Pentagon Pro-Marker

As you know, your Company has been working on the development of a product that
provides a technically improved glass-etched security mark for use by glass and
glazing industries in the face of new legislation. This new legislation (FENSA),
driven by the UK's Glass & Glazing Federation, dictates that all new building
glass must be marked or etched with the confirmation of its compliance with
building regulations.

Pentagon has commenced production of the first batch of etching units. In the
meantime, we have conducted very successful tests with these units in one of the
world's largest glazing manufacturers, Pilkington. We look forward to being
able to report progress on this exciting project in the future.

Outlook

It is evident that the steps taken by your Board to strengthen both critical
mass and senior management these last few months have resulted in a
significantly improved stronger business.

In our two lead companies, Pentagon Glass Tech and Filmtek, we have clear
demonstration of product appeal both for SupaGlass and for our other protection
technologies. The need for protection across glass of all types continues to
grow, driven by urban criminal violence and terrorism. We are investing too in
the expansion of our presence to the two potentially high growth territories of
the Middle East and Far East.

We have also seen an improvement in the confidence of our client companies to
increase levels of business with us, resulting from further improvements and
performance accreditation of our technologies and from our client service
levels.

Pentagon Protection is well placed to take advantage of market opportunities at
home and overseas for both its Filmtek and Pentagon Glass Tech subsidiaries.

We look forward to continued progress across all areas of the business.

PENTAGON PROTECTION PLC
CONSOLIDATED PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT
For the six months ended 31 March 2004

John,Heard of Coca-Cola? Pentagon Protection had not even acquired Filmtek at time article below was written.

From the July 2003 issue of City Equities:

It is not often that we can talk of similarities between a multi-billion pound dollar corporation and a recent aim entrant, but Coca-Cola and Pentagon Protection are two companies that have something in common. So what is it, you are probably wondering?

In Coca-Colas case, it is a secret drinks formula, while for Pentagon, although at a much earlier stage and operating in a completely different industry, it is Supaglass, an application solution, which is used to strengthen glass for car side windows.
It is from Supaglass that Pentagon hopes to build a profitable and expansive business.

The plan is to develop the domestic and international franchise network and increase existing relationships in the car industry, which have already been forged with Land Rover and Citroen. Pentagons products have been fitted to vehicles for the Cabinet and Home Office, various police forces and foreign embassies, along with a number of high profile individuals and celebrities, such as Tony Blair.

Outside of the automotive sector, Pentagons two way and solar protective glass have been used in the television industry, most notably in the TV shoe Big Brother.
Looking ahead, demand could be driven by legislative changes, as the Health and Safety Executive is considering extending the definition of the workplace to include vehicles for work.

Also the law on corporate killing, relating to workplace fatal accidents, is due to change, which is expected to increase the responsibility of firms for accidents that harm their employees. It is interesting to note that if the pre-tax profit for the two years ending 30 September 2004 is between 0.625 and 0.75m, the directors will be issued with up to 12.5m shares. This earn out gives the management an additional incentive to grow the business, in order to attain the target.

Pentagon exhibits many characteristics that are crucial in developing a successful business, such as a scalable business model, high barriers to entry, low capital costs, an incentivised management team and a high margin product. With these in place, we are hopeful that Pentagons plan can be fulfilled.

ENDS

John,Seeing is believing.

Update for you.Do the sums and you should make it 3.4m!More where that came from imho.

Pentagon had "recently" completed a contract for 1.6million on Eurostar/Waterloo station.

The same RNS makes (additional) reference to the completion of a contract worth 450,000 for Changi Airport, Singapore.

It also confirms that Pentagon has "won further international orders in the last two months, totalling #750,000".

Yesterday's RNS (04/11/04) announced "three significant contract wins amounting to a total sales value of 610,000 "

So: 1.6 million + 450,000 + 750,000 + 610,000 = 3,410,000

Can learn a thing or two on these websites.

Keep reading,researching and watching John.Already up and chart itching to break out news assisted naturally.I see growth.I see profits.I see share price rising year on year.imho,dyor. ;o)

L2 1 v 2.Trades early doors inside the spread.Last buy at full ask.

Copy and paste from advfn

Interesting article by Dan Atkinson in the Financial Mail headed "We'll pay for protection say business".Goes on to report that:-Nearly half of British businesses are ready to fund a specialist police squad to protect them from terrorists,animal rights extremists and computer hackers.

Obviously no direct mention of making buildings and car glass more safe and secure,however,the theme is there.Digby Jones is quoted as saying "The cost of doing nothing is very high"............"It is an expense that business should happily bear"........."If it saves a life one day,it is money well spent."

Terrorism,extremism in any shape or form is sadly a part of our world.Common sense dictates is a matter of great concern and seen as a threat.

Yes it a very small price to save a life or a person from serious injury.Banks,Embassies,Airports,Train Stations,Bus Stations,Trains,Buses,Cars,Police,Fire Brigade,Army, the list is endless.I personally like the fact that Pentagon have high quality products that will protect the lives of people and help minimise potentially horid injuries cause by flying glass @ 100 MPH.

CBI survey conducted jointly with security technology firm QinetiQ "found that 97% of businesses rated security isssues as a matter of of great or some concern,................"

My gut instinct says that Security and Protection is a growth industry.Is a need as opposed to want and no longer a luxury.Projects completed and recently won contracts are the tip of the iceburg-the world is full of glass.HSBC has banks here in the UK AND around the world.Airports,Embassies around the world......

Broker quoting full offer price of 8p.

imho,dyor

pete:) bullish and confidently holding PPR.

Too expensive at 8p I will wait till it falls to 7.5p before I purchase some..

Know what you are saying.@ 8p looking cheaper for buyers higher up @ 8.5p to 9p.Very tight spread though.Interesting.WINS wants stock.Will buy more if there is a drop.Anyone who is yet to buy risks chasing a rising price if PPR get tipped again,company announces more contract wins or if results issued without notice,confirming profitability and company very upbeat.Quiet day of thin volumes.imho.

HOOD just moved offer at 12:08 up to 8.25p.Only KBC left on 8p.About to move?

Ticked up 7.75p/8.25p.

WINS moved up on the bid 8p/8.25p.Something in the air.3 mms blue KBC moved up at 16:18 too.
L2 1 v 1 then offer up 8.5p.

Sneaky mms.Trade reported after close made to look like a sell.In fact a buy earlier in the day 15:42:13 55,000 bought @ 8p!

Think we may see share price trading sideways for a bit until company issue next announcement.With 74,918 shares bought and only 70,000 shares sold mms not letting them go for cheaper than 8.12p a share.May be tipped again and re-rated between now and before Y/E.Good results and more news of contracts to add to 3.4m is all that is required.R=8p and Br=8.5p.Patience and buy any dips.imho

From Chairman's Statement made 25 june 2004 "Filmtek is in the process of undertaking several major projects both domestically and internationally, especially in the Middle East.The Company's clients include a number of global banks, international business houses houses and government departments".

In the process of undertaking means company have won contracts.UK contracts announcement last week.Follows if read literally that projects underway in the Middle East and annoucements to follow soon?! imho.

I don't know about the Middle east Lex but it's sp is definitely heading south.

Well hello John,always time to improve your knowledge about the Middle East and the ups and downs of investing.Tip buy low sell high.Resistance @ 8p means exactly that.Breakout hold a few days above 8.5p means exactly that.Patience and buy the dips means..........you guessed it,exactly that.Better volumes last three days.Todays best buying price=7.75p.Breakout when it eventually comes will be news assisted.Cheap.imho,dyor

AMG72, until 8p resistance broken best buying the dips during ups and downs of consolidation period.When chart does eventually breaks out see sp fly away with TA merchants buying.HSBC Bank contract win is another international banking group that has instructed Pentagon to protect their Canary Wharf offices.Look at TV advert for HSBC map of the world smothered in red.Imagine contract to protect here in UK and rest of the globe.Pretty certain contracts start rolling in from potententially high growth teritories og the Middle East and Far East.R=8p Br 8.5ppimho.

lex1000 - 10 Nov'04 - 17:53 - 1946 of 1946 edit

Total days trades 390,783 buys 268,071 sells.Good volumes 658,854.Expectations of over several million shares churned over in the week that chart breakout comes.Confirms view that there is a seller.To me this is normal Moneymakers trading matching buys and sells in consolidation period in between next RNS.Interim statement confirms that company in process of undertaking several contracts especially in the Middle East.Question of WHEN not if Pentagon issue news of Middle East contracts as not mentioned in recent offerings.Possibly much more in the pipeline holders do not know about.PPR probably one of the best investment buys going.Take advantage of picking up cheaply.R=8p Br=8.5p.imho,dyor.
