gary,
Not clutching at straws, merely pointing out that, as you say, we were misled.
I realise that the RNS could be taken to mean no further FDA approval may be necessary - i.e. 'compliant under the same regulation ' could mean it was already covered, but then 'we expect approval' suggests the opposite, or at best SEO were uncertain as to whether the existing approval also covered Starpol 3000 and were waiting confirmation.
Having put out this RNS you would think they would clear up the confusion they had caused, particularly as that RNS together with nunerous others put out by the company encouraged investors to invest more money at high SP's.
With the ensuing drop in SP and then subsequent support from shareholders of the open offer, any decent company would answer the questions put to them on this matter. The fact they wont comment officially and will only issue undocumented snippets for which they are not accountable to major investors such as Tony, through the back door, tells me we're dealing with a dishonest company who have nothing but contempt - at least for their non-institutional shareholders.

Oblomov and all
Forget the mislead, if TR's comment about 3000 not yet being submitted is true then that 2nd May RNS was a blatant LIE to shareholders.

Great to read sensible and constructive posts, I, like many others believed in SEO and have come unstuck - at the moment !!! We seem to have got rid of the pratts for the time being and a lot of sense being written.
Thanks

Oblo,
I do agree with you, but to harp on about it does no good. Either action is taken or more importantly we overlook their past transgressions in the light of finally achieving those long promised, over-hyped deals etc.
We can all dwell on the past in vain. I'd prefer we look to the future {IF there is one} having learned from then past.

As I understood Tony's post, Starpol 3000 was withdrawn for further work on formulation. Reading between the lines, it was indeed submitted but withdrawn, presumably in the light of feedback from pilot scheme testing. No doubt the prospective client(s) would be involved in the validation process. My view is that SEO management were indeed guilty of marketing naivete and (H White in particular) over optimism, but I don't think they have been intentionally dishonest. Any RNS will only be firm news so we are better off without the half-baked stiff we were getting.

Agree with garyble. We should use the lessons from the past to inform our concerns for the future. Are management making a plan? Are they achieving it? Whne will it bear fruit? Whne will they tell us?
Since RNS's are no longer handed out like confetti, we need to establish what is the minimum timetable for announcements around 6 monthly accounting, end of period trading updates etc.
Last year we had prelims on 28th Feb, so that at least should be repeated. It would be nice to have it sooner, but I expect they will want to wait as long as possible to include any possible good news.
We also had a pre-close update on 16th december - nothing forthcoming in that regard so far. Are we now in a close period? Or could we still have a pcu this month?
Barring further bad news, I will stay in until prelims and make a decision then.

SD,
SEO have shifted their year-end from 31st October to 31st December so I expect Final results will not be out untill end of April.

I would like to think that they have a cunning plan of making the announcement of MMF completion nicely coincident with the Finals which by all accounts will be dire, but I do expect a considerable increase in T/O, especially if Biotec production has hit capacity.
After all, the fund-raising was to finance the first two MMFs, and previous indication was supposedly 6 months to completion.

Well done, Gary. End of April is just about on the six month spot. Can expect to hear that two MMFs are in place, revised 3000 is with FDA and, just possibly, they have a contract to supply (and even one Greenseal in operation). That wise old stockdog will then make his decision and that should set the price moving - either up or down!

IMO consolidation of shares before any other news,just cannot see the SP riseing (if it rises ) with so many shares in circ, anyone ealse think this?

I have said this at least 3 times in the recent past!
It is obvious that the company cannot have so many shares in circulation.
I will state it again:
Trading Statement/results
Share consolidation
Contract news - which will lift the price
Stanelco bought
It's the only way forward.
