Tanfield Group - any info out there? (TAN)     

mr mike - 21 Jan 2004 13:49

Tanfield Group is the new company name of Comeleon. As I understand it, Comoleon was getting into trouble so TAN (paerent company?) took over. Since this has happened the share price has dropped by 0.25p each day for the last week or so (on average) and are now around the 3p mark with very little activity.

Does anyone know much about this company or previously held stock in Comeleon? There is virtually no info out there other than on the company website.

cheers

Mike

Tanfield Group plc (the "Company")

Holding in Company

The Company was notified on 25 February 2008 that Deutsche Bank AG has voting interests in 36,976,810 ordinary shares in the Company which represents approximately 9.99% of the issued share capital of the Company.

The bounce is probably due to Shorters buying just before the results and hoping to short again afterwards.

cynic - 26 Feb 2008 18:45 - 528 of 1076

strange logic .... many or even most who have shrted over the last month or so will therefore have lost money if they have now bought back ..... and why should they necessarily short again after the results? ..... sp is already a long way from its arguably over-inflated high, but TAN has certainly of late always come up with the goods and i would be surprised if they disappoint this time.

Try closing their postions for next few days.

approximately 9.85% of the issued share capital of the Company.

New product launch




RNS Number:3337S
Tanfield Group PLC

THE TANFIELD GROUP PLC

LAUNCH OF NEW ZERO-EMISSION ELECTRIC VEHICLES IN COLLABORATION WITH FORD

Tanfield's trading division, Smith Electric Vehicles, today launches the Smith
Ampere, a new product aimed at the light van sector. Ampere, which utilises the
Ford Transit Connect chassis, and will be joint branded Ford and Smith, was
designed and developed by Tanfield in collaboration with Ford. Both Ford and
Smith Electric Vehicles will officially unveil Ampere on their respective stands
at the Commercial Vehicle Show in Birmingham, UK, today at 10am.

Ampere is a pioneering pure electric vehicle in its class. It is aimed at urban
operators using large fleets of light vans, in sectors such as postal and
courier, utilities and telecommunications. It has a gross vehicle weight of
2,340kg, with payload capacity of up to 800kg.

Ampere has a range in excess of 100 miles on one battery charge and a top speed
of up to 70mph. It is powered by a 50 kilowatt electric motor and an Iron
Phosphate lithium-ion battery pack. This is a new drive train and battery and
was developed specifically for Ampere.

Ford has already announced that it will launch the Transit Connect in North
America and recently unveiled a taxi cab variant. Tanfield will concurrently
launch the Ampere for sale in the USA. .

The Company today also launches the Faraday mark II, specifically aimed at North
America. Ford will supply a range of chassis for Faraday commercial vehicles
with a gross vehicle weight of up to 13,000kg. Tanfield will commence
manufacture of the first of these new products for North America in the second
half of 2008.

Tanfield has reached a broad agreement with Ford to collaborate on future zero
emission vehicle projects and is investigating further opportunities in sales,
marketing and product development both in Europe and North America.

Darren Kell, Chief Executive of The Tanfield Group Plc, said: "The launch of
Ampere brings leading edge zero-emission technology to the light van sector for
the first time.

"Our relationship with Ford in North America will provide Smith with high
quality chassis that will be recognisable to, and readily accepted by American
customers.

"Today's product launches will significantly increase the addressable market for
our electric vehicles and are a major step towards our goal of offering a full
global range of zero emission commercial vehicles, from light vans to medium
duty trucks."

Steve Kimber, Head of Commercial Vehicles for Ford of Britain, said: "As the UK
market leader in commercial vehicles, it makes sound business sense for us to
fully engage with the market leader in commercial electric vehicles.

"The Transit and Transit Connect are Europe-wide success stories for Ford.
Demand for zero emission vehicles is growing exponentially as the battery and
drive line technology improve their performance. Ford's collaboration with
Tanfield places us in pole position to fully exploit this opportunity."
