SUPERSCAPE - TECHNOLOGY FOR THE FUTURE. (SPS)     

Happy1 - 03 Mar 2004 22:47

Superscape was founded nearly twenty years ago, and has been dedicated throughout its history to the development of ground-breaking software technology for the creation and delivery of innovative, high quality interactive 3D applications.
Over the years, Superscape has amassed unparalleled expertise and experience in the development of 3D software capable of working within the constraints of limited memory devices, slow processor speeds and strictly controlled file sizes.

Drawing on this knowledge, Superscape has established a world-leading position in the development of industry-standard 3D technology and applications for mobile devices. The company's Swerve technology has been developed specifically for wireless environments in close collaboration with ARM, and comprises a 3D engine (Swerve Client), authoring tools (Swerve Studio) and a broad portfolio of 3D content, with particular emphasis on 3D games. Swerve is being adopted on a global basis by many of the mobile industry's leading players, together with world-renowned content and brand organisations.

Superscape has corporate headquarters in Hook, Hampshire (UK) and San Clemente, California (USA) with regional offices in Tokyo and Sydney. The company is quoted on the London Stock Exchange (LSE: SPS).

Superscape (SPS) has received various tips in the press and by Analysts recently which will certainly give impetous to the share price. Indicators are looking good with the RSI rising off an oversold position and the MACD crossing showing BULLISH signs for the stock.

The mobile gaming market is still in it's infancy but the projected revenue is enormous. Mobile operators are looking at tapping the Gameboy market as they feel that users will not want to carry around a multitude of technology and if they have a mobile phone which can double as a gaming station than people will prefer this option.

People should also look at the recent contracts which SPS have signed for their technology. This is a technology company which could well be a great success in 2004.

realcooltrader,

i'm surprised some people are actually selling SPS today with so much obvious information available. Still, their loss.

Good post,

cheers,
skids

realcooltrader - 19 Oct 2004 15:00 - 256 of 707

skids,

I must admit I momentarily thought about top slicing myself, because I couldn't see how it could keep going like this. However, I managed to stop myself pressing that sell button yesterday at 53p, thank goodness. As you say, too much going for them at the moment.

Cheers

"DJ MARKET TALK/EU: Superscape Soars; Institutions Keen

Call Us In London: 44-20-7842-9464
E-mail: markettalk.eu@dowjones.com

1520 GMT (Dow Jones) LONDON--Superscape (SPS.LN) +10% at 58.5p. Trader highlights recent round of meetings with institutions, "which has greatly increased interest in stock. Speculation suggests co could have 75 games on offer by January 05." Another trader says upbeat sentiment towards stock continuing from stellar 1H results released last Fri. (SMT)"

I'm not sure I would call the interims "stellar" but I do like the sound of 75 games by Jan 2005, albeit only speculation.

Roadshows are working their magic and SPS will be wining and dining more analysts for balance of week! I think that 70p is a realistic target short term. It's tempting to take the profit but I'm not sure the rally is over yet and longer term the potential still not clear. They have stepped their period revenues up by 10x this month and given the break-out I really think it is one to hold on to or even get into at this price. Still looks very cheap given current performance on interims promise of very strong break-out 2nd half. The day traders might make some money this week if there is some profit taking but the momentum is still up and I'm sticking with them for now.

Kivver - 19 Oct 2004 17:11 - 260 of 707

i sold two days at an excellent profit, just too see it go up another 20. Feeling pretty fed up with myself but its sod's law. You keep a share and it dives, you sell and it flys. Same with asc.

willfagg - 19 Oct 2004 17:11 - 261 of 707

still think this is the most exciting share ptotential i have had since ASOS. Price could be anything in a year.Current share price based on only 1million T/0!If SPS manage the news flow over next few months and they fulfill half of their promise the price should fly(IMO)

ehall - 20 Oct 2004 08:17 - 262 of 707

Sell if you want to but even at todays price you would be daft, stick them in the bottom drawer and wait for 5 in the next two years. the business model means anyone who wants 3d has to go to SPS in reality, its a no brainer! Pirce up 3.25 at the open, come and join the 100k club and you'll be able to buy that yacht soon!

sandrew64 - 20 Oct 2004 08:41 - 263 of 707

Kivver
Hope you've bought back in (also ASC).Still plenty of upside( both). May not get a dip at this rate on either.

Kivver - 20 Oct 2004 13:49 - 264 of 707

no i didnt, i am kicking my self for selling early, big lesson learned. Missed out on another 30% even though i sold at a fantastic profit. Waiting for profit takers on both i will then get back in.

skids - 20 Oct 2004 14:01 - 265 of 707

I wasn't going to post on here until I get back from holiday, but have just read your post Kivver and I would say don't be too hard on yourself. I too could have made 30%, but I decided to hold. I have actually bought some more today because the results from some shows and meetings with institutions should increase interest. The next 2/3 weeks will show the true balance level for SPS, which I beleive is around 65/70.

Good opportunity to add today prior to the next move IMO. See you all in a few weeks. Have faith.

aevansdj - 20 Oct 2004 16:59 - 267 of 707

I agree with you Skids, I think the price is just pausing for breath as it's had quite a substantial rise over the last few days.Christmas is approaching fast and can only bolster the current situation.I wonder if there will be anything in Shares Magazine tomorrow?

sandrew64 - 21 Oct 2004 08:10 - 268 of 707

Tipped as a 'market mover' in the FT today.

A game of mobile potential, ripe for the playing
By Chris Flood
Published: October 21 2004 03:00 | Last updated: October 21 2004 03:00

Leading mobile phone operators will be marketing new 3G handsets heavily in the run-up to Christmas.


One key attraction will be playing 3D mobile games on the new phones. Growth in customer demand for mobile entertainment such as ringtones and downloadable games has been explosive.

One potential beneficiary is Superscape Group, the 3D software company.

Over the past 10 weeks, Superscape's shares have shot up 87 per cent, closing at 57.5p yesterday, as analysts have enthused about its strategy of focusing on mobile gaming content.

Paul Kavanagh, of broker Killik, said: "Where they stand now is that a content owner can come to Superscape to build a game in both 2D and 3D markets: very few competitors can achieve that at the moment."

Uncertainty surrounds forecasts for the industry as little information about downloads is available from mobile operators. But Verizon of the US, the market leader, reported customers downloaded more than 12m games applications in the first five months of 2004. Superscape has signed licensing agreements with content providers such as Disney and Sony Digital Pictures. Rapid growth is expected. The company also benefits from the lower development costs and shorter development times of mobile games compared with normal console games.

Superscape has signed up 11 network operators, accomplishing a key strategical aim of developing a distribution platform. This provides one of the big attractions of Superscape's business model - its huge potential for growth. With a typical retail cost per 2D game of $5 in the US and 5 in the UK (a 40 per cent premium is expected for 3D), revenue growth is expected to be strong.

Assad Malic, of house broker Evolution Securities, is forecasting revenues will increase from 4.5m this financial year (ending January 2005) to 26.7m in 2006-07. Evolution is forecasting pre-tax losses of 5.3m this financial year and pre-tax profit of 7.6m in 2006-07. Chris Flood

Buy the Shares Magazine today to read the 'verge of breakthrough' of Superscape - set for a 'explosive' fourth quarter - BUY

hlyeo98 - 21 Oct 2004 19:23 - 271 of 707

Closed at 62p today...looks like 100p is easily reached by X'mas.

Jumpin - 21 Oct 2004 23:26 - 272 of 707

100p, wow that would be 6 bagger;)

jimwren - 22 Oct 2004 09:49 - 273 of 707

I bought SPS in may at 33p so obviously I'm happy. I have no idea what price target to set, but all newsflow is positive and institutions have started to buy in. SPS appears to have a near monopoly in their area of expertise and if 3G phones really do what it says on the can, sales should take off along with the share price. i am holding to see how xmas develops.

Kivver - 22 Oct 2004 09:59 - 274 of 707

Are in short term or long, i think 60p in the short term. But by 2008 if the projections are true, 60p will seem very, very, very cheap. Im back in long term, cannot see my self looking to sell for at least 3 years, unless we have bad news of course.
