kimoldfield - 22 Feb 2006 10:52 - 393 of 1525

Woodie. Good point.

bestblinds. Buy On Rumour Sell On News. It happens with all shares, but guessing the right timing is the secret, one that I hardly ever master!

hewittalan6 - 22 Feb 2006 12:11 - 394 of 1525

Well the stop loss kicked in at 3.15 bid. That was so badly timed when I could have got 4p plus earlier, but I bought back in at 3p. Net effect is that I own about 4% more shares than this time yesterday (after spread, fees etc.) for no more outlay so the plan worked after a fashion. providing I timed the buy back correctly!!!

664k turnover, loss making and almost no net assets. This has to be worth next to nothing instead of its market cap. of 40m.

LOL

' 8 Billion a year is spent on depression health sickness benefits to people who have been pensioned off from full time work. Halton PCT closed a deal with Ultrasis for 150K. There are 400 PCTs within the UK. Not to mention BTB being trialled in Job centres at the moment since 2004 and putting people back to work. This is backed by the Health and Employment ministers to get people back to work and drop the 8 Billion health costs and put it back into taxes. This product will also be seen as a major application to also ensure equal oppertunites employment staff codes for companies too. It will be used through out all the emergency services and the armed forces. It is not IF it is WHEN?'

robinhood - 23 Feb 2006 17:23 - 397 of 1525

what the f*** is going on?????????? I can undestand that the NICE recommendation was already in the sp but to fall by as much as it did to levels well below 22/2 is in my book grossly overdone.

kimoldfield - 23 Feb 2006 19:54 - 398 of 1525

Nothing to worry about, just the quick buck makers on the loose, they'll be back when they've made a few more somewhere else! Time will be good to this company.

hewittalan6 - 01 Mar 2006 15:16 - 399 of 1525

Seems to be a fire lit under ULT this afternoon.
Leaky company perhaps and news on its way?????

AdieH - 01 Mar 2006 15:59 - 400 of 1525

Hope so big buys going through this pm...

odsalrob - 07 Mar 2006 16:33 - 401 of 1525

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how can the share price have gone down when the buys verses sells is approx 10 million against 3.5 million ?

pension271 - 13 Mar 2006 15:16 - 402 of 1525

Lot of activity on ULT - their web site does not have any news?? Nor can I find any where on my sources - does any one know anything - thanks.

AdieH - 13 Mar 2006 16:08 - 403 of 1525

Good news in reference to "NICE", just been under attack from day traders recently but sp now starting to settle hopefully all the way up to 4p once contracts etc are announced, in the long term this is a no brainer if the company/management get things right... IMHO.

pension271 - 13 Mar 2006 22:27 - 404 of 1525

Thanks AdieH - 4p will be worth the wait - look forward to that.

Healthstar Group plc
15 March 2006


Not for release, publication or distribution in or into the United States,
Australia, Canada, Japan or any other jurisdiction if to do so would constitute
a violation of the relevant laws of such jurisdiction

For immediate release 15 March 2006


Recommended Proposal for the acquisition

of HEALTHSTAR GROUP PLC

by ULTRASIS PLC

to be effected by way of a scheme of arrangement

under section 425 of the Companies Act 1985



Highlights


- The Boards of Ultrasis and Healthstar announce that they have reached
agreement on the terms of a recommended proposal (the 'Proposal') whereby
Healthstar will be acquired by Ultrasis

- The consideration comprises 28.3 New Ultrasis Shares for each
Healthstar Share which values the entire issued share capital of Healthstar at
approximately 2.9 million

- The consideration values each Healthstar Share at 65.1 pence (based on
the Closing Price of one Ultrasis Share of 2.3 pence on 14 March 2006, the last
Dealing Day prior to this announcement), a premium of 53.2 per cent. over the
Closing Price of one Healthstar Share on that date

- The Ultrasis Directors believe that the acquisition of Healthstar
represents an excellent strategic opportunity

- The Proposal will be effected by way of a scheme of arrangement of
Healthstar under section 425 of the Companies Act which has received the
unanimous recommendation of the Directors of Healthstar who have given
irrevocable undertakings to vote in favour

- The Proposal will enable Healthstar Shareholders to participate in the
benefits expected to arise from Healthstar becoming part of the enlarged
Ultrasis Group

Commenting on the Proposal, Gerald Malone, Chairman of Ultrasis, said:


'Today's announcement marks a further step towards Ultrasis' objective of
building a substantial business delivering computer based cognitive behavioural
therapy and education in both clinical and retail markets. By acquiring
Healthstar, Ultrasis will have acquired a business which complements our
products, protects our market position, extends market reach and provides
opportunities to add value to our existing products and intellectual property.'


Commenting on the Proposal, Geoffrey Parsons, Chairman of Healthstar, said:


'The Proposal represents an opportunity for Healthstar Shareholders to become
shareholders in an enlarged Ultrasis Group which will be better placed to take
advantage of the opportunities available to exploit Ultrasis' technology across
all markets.'


The formal documentation setting out the details of the Proposal, including the
Scheme Document setting out the procedures to be followed to approve the
Proposal and the expected timetable will be posted to Healthstar Shareholders,
together with Forms of Proxy, as soon as practicable.

The companies are already linked so I suppose it makes sense to complete the join?:-

For Immediate Release 3 December 2004


Healthstar Group plc

First Day of dealings on the Alternative Investment Market ("AIM")

Healthstar Group plc ("Healthstar Group" or "the Company") (LSE: HSR), the
holding company of a newly formed group which intends to build a substantial and
profitable business developing, marketing and selling life improvement products,
is pleased to announce its flotation on AIM today.

The Company has raised 2.25 million via a placing at 50 pence per share.
Marshall Securities is acting as the Company's nominated adviser and broker.

Key points

Healthstar has acquired Mindtech which has the exclusive right to exploit
products and intellectual property rights of Ultrasis in English speaking
consumer markets worldwide.

The Group's first consumer products will use the Ultrasis product and
technology platform to address problems associated with compulsive behaviour,
stress, anxiety and depression.

The Board expects that Healthstar's revenue in the UK will derive
primarily from premium rate calls made to Healthstar helplines. Healthstar
intends to offer advice on topics of concern by means of pre-recorded telephone
messages, with the caller being guided through a series of voice prompts in
order to receive helpful and relevant information and guidance. The subject of
the first such product is intended to be alcohol management. Healthstar also
intends to develop information packs, CDs, books, merchandise and other products
and services for marketing and delivery through conventional channels.

The Group intends to carry out a test marketing in the US to establish
the potential for selling a sensor-based interactive product to consumers by
means of an "infomercial". This product will teach consumers relaxation
techniques in order to alleviate stress, anxiety and sleeping problems.

The Group aims to generate revenues from its own sales of products and
services and potentially from third party sub-licence income.

The net proceeds of the Placing will be used primarily to acquire
Mindtech and repay its indebtedness and to complete the development of the
Group's initial products. The balance will be used for working capital and,
potentially, for complementary small scale acquisitions.

Commenting on the flotation, Jim Merriman, Managing Director of Healthstar,
said:

"We are delighted to be joining AIM today. The placing will provide funds for
the development and implementation of our product offering in the UK and for the
test marketing of our sensor-based product in the US. We see significant market
potential for life improvement products based on proven technology to be
delivered directly to individuals using modern communications channels. We look
forward to reporting our progress to the market over the coming months."
