Agcert is the offspring of XL Techgroup, a development capital group with an impressive track record. Its principle business is the development of biodigesters that help to reduce methane emissions - one of the principle contributors to global warming - on livestock farms. Farmers and companies in the EU are coming under increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and Agcert is perfectly placed to capitalise on this. Although a new company, it already has contracts of Eu74 million, including some heavyweights like BHP Billiton and Nuon. The beauty of Agcert's business is that, along with the initial sale of the equipment to reduce carbon emissions, every sale secures for Agcert a revenue stream as Agcert sells-on the carbon credits produced and takes a percentage as commission. With gross margins of 70% plus, Agcert is not a share to miss out on in todays world.

Cheers, DYOR.

Mentioned in July's Small Company Sharewatch as a buy along with parent company XL Techgroup. 'We think Agcert shares will go much higher, perhaps several fold higher, as investors realise how strong this business is going to become.'

Chad,, i get scsw, on a Saturday every month ,,by the time monday morning came the MM'S had marked up this one and XLT so much that i didn't buy either,,,why do they send it at the weekend ,, for good reason i think,,i have another tip sheet that comes mid week and the MM's can't tinker with the price before you've had the chance to buy... I would be interested to hear any other view on this as i'm thinking of cancelling my subscription...

Yeah I agree with you on that one jimmy, but I think this one's got such a way to go I was prepared to buy after the MM's marked up. Im just thankful that SCSW brought this one to my attention - such an exciting business. Definately an irritation though with SCSW. Might be worth e-mailing them about it.

I only have a PO BOX address,, do you have any other way of contacting them ?
Just in case your interested the other tip sheet is Quantum Leap , ive been getting it for two years and made some really good gains from it . Cheers JB..

Just been looking around for an e-mail address but ur right they dont seem to have one. U could try e-mailing the parent company, EquityLink, at questions@exemplas.com. How much does Quantum Leap cost? what are its details?
Cheers.

I posted on this around 21st june as I was told to buy by a fund manager--I stupidly didn't and now think I've missed the boat!! good prospects though,

Very nice full page write up about the business in todays Sunday Telegraph.

Joined you guys in this one, it really could be massive and a world leader.

Just seen the profit forecasts for 2006 of 38millin Euros on 73million Euro sales. Some will say its got away but I dont really think it as and the business should grow at a real pace from here.

cheers GF.

Hi GF.
I too like this share a lot, and tried to buy a few last week but was unsuccessful.
The reason being that as my online broker is now Squaregain, and they do not deal in this share because it`s not settled through the Crest System.
So I`m stuffed.
Regards.

Hi porky,

thats a shame. Anyway in general with a lot of the market today seems to be profit taking going on.

cheers GF.

On Growthh Company investor tonight.


XL TechGroup - SPECULATIVE BUY
Companies: XLT
20/07/2005

This is one of the burgeoning horde of financial entities on AIM focused on creating new ventures out of innovative ideas and technology. Many of these are following sector leader IP2IPOs approach and trying to commercialise university research. XL Tech is more keenly focused on a commercial outcome. Indeed, American founder and chief executive John Scott claims his team have a 12-year track record of creating companies of a significant size. His aim is to look at particular markets, assess the needs of that market and then find a technology solution to meet that chosen need. He then aims to float the most promising ventures with a valuation of $400m, or 250m. Scott managed to convince enough investors to raise 20m net at 150p at flotation last November. Since then, the spin-out of AgCert onto the main market has justified their faith in the concept. This provider of carbon emissions credits from burning off methane obtained from agricultural waste has gone to a premium since flotation and gives XL Techs 27% stake a value of about 100m. Two more companies are being lined up for similar treatment as well: non-toxic pesticide developer Tyratech, whose natural plant oil product has been shown to be effective against most household insects; and rapid diagnostics concern DxTech. The group has also unveiled a strategic relationship with major consumer goods producer Proctor & Gamble. At the current level, XL Tech is worth 173m. Strip out the 100m AgCert stake and 15m cash and the rest of the group is worth 58m, making the shares worth a speculation.



cheers GF.

Ive received a copy of Sharewatch today and they really are going ballistic about this one..........

They say AGCERT- - one to put the crown jewels into.

- We think Agcert shares will go much higher, perhaphs several fold higher, as investors realise how strong this business is going to become. (they bought at 170p)

- Agcert is already the largest producer of Carbon Credits and there is no other significant competition.

- Were sticking our neck out but think Agcert will become a FTSE- 250 constituent at some point in the future.ENDS.

cheers GF.

Nobody interested. Youl be sorry.

cheers GF.

Out of interest GF, have you bought into XL Tech too, if you dont mind me asking?

You have to be patient with this one, has had a good rise recently after some good buying. Also expected to be a FT250 company soon.

managed to pick up a few today-through Hoodless Brennan telephone dealing only--if anyone else wants to join in. I was told to buy these back in early June as the city boys like them--better late than not at all as I agree they will be worth holding IMO.

At last this ones coming to life.
cheers GF.

This is a very quiet thread. As there anybody still out there?
