Brought these shares as a spectulative share has anyone seen any news or read any reports about it's protential?

Revised target to 7p...

Came into these some years ago at 5p and saw the bottom fall out. Felt it was a good company with good service and kept averaging down. Now the patience is being rewarded! Where did the 'Revised Target' of 7p come from? I see the share price gently climbing until after statement and up to results. IMHO it will go just past 5p and then start to gently fall back again. Seems to be something of a growing pattern.

From an infomed poster on other financial sites.

Results pack currently under audit.
04 Finals 640-665k to be released 20 Dec - 7 Jan.
The board is more than happy with 04.
Hermiston has brought exciting new ideas with him, expect an added product range in 05 along with continued expansion of existing services and do not rule out growth by acquisition.

Nice rise this morning on the back of an RNS stating results due at the end of this month. Their interims seemed pretty impressive but the stock has had a bit of a roller coaster ride since then. Is this a false dawn or are they set to go higher?

Nice steady rise this morning. Max online buy is currently only 15K!

will there be a trading update before results ?

Thursday's Constant Gainers & Losers
an ADVFN competitor
Zetar, Aggregate Industries, Immunodiagnostics, Touch, Charteris, IDN Telecom, Safeland, Peacock, NXT, Jarvis and Matrix Communications in focus....

Notable constant gainers over five days include Zetar, now 106.6% ahead at 250p, in constant demand since their admission to AIM last week.

Aggregate Industries is up 33.6% over the five days at 140.25p, yesterday announcing a bid from Swiss firm Holcim.

Immunodiagnostic Systems is 19.5% better at 67.5p, making good preogress since maiden interim results at the end of 2004.

Touch Group is 29.5% ahead over the period at 25.25p with Charteris 28.2% better at 54.5p.

Notable constant gainers over four days include IDN Telecom, 18.9% ahead at 3.3p ahead of results due at month end and Safeland, 19.5p better at 67.5p.

Notable constant losers over five days include Peacock Group, down 12.8% at 239.75p following a disappointing trading statement earlier this week.

Notable constant losers over four days include NXT, 15.1% weaker at 64.5p, investors impatient for more product news.

Jarvis is 10.5% lighter at 28.625p, still struggling for survival by selling off contract work.

Matrix Communications has lost 8.9% at 206p, on profit-taking after their previous good form.

We've seen good results from firms such as matrix in recent days. I would expect something similar from IDN at the end of this month.

Commenting upon their interim results Chairman Barry Roberts said:

'The group's trading performance in the first half of the current financial year
has been particularly pleasing, with higher revenues, significant profits and
greater balance sheet strength. The results give us greater confidence that the
performance improvements will continue for the foreseeable future.'

With all this excitement it's too easy to forget that IDN's results are due at the end of this month. Their last figures were excellent and should be equally as good as those from EVS that were announced the other day. Good luck!

The iterims were showing 'Robust Revenue Growth' and 'Continued Growth in Profitability'. If the results from other telcos are anything to go by then I would expect these to have continued upwards. Good luck!

Just a reminder that results are due next Monday.

could we see them breech 5p this time round?

will they tick up today ? lets hope so

windys160: There's been a bit of profit taking this morning. However, I've just noticed an MM buy has turned up. Let's hope there's a big buyer in the wings.

This is an article that was published after last years results. It gives an interesting insight into how IDN has been transformed.

AT LAY'S SMALL CAPS
Smaller companies spotlight
11 March 2004
EACH week, former Fleet Street City Editor Patrick Lay keeps This Is Money readers up-to-date with a neglected, but exciting sector of the stock market - smaller companies.

Good times at Telecom

Barry Roberts, chairman of IDN Telecom, was in fine form when we met for lunch early this week; the company had just reported that a 2.18m trading loss in 2002 had been turned into a 250,000 pre-tax profit in 2003, and that must be some relief for somebody who is sitting on 75 million shares.

IDN Telecom earns its living by offering clients independent advice on the best providers of telecommunication services for both landline and mobile, as well as data communication services.

The major breakthrough for the company, which now has been suffering from development losses and restructuring in past years, has been to move from advising small and medium-sized companies, to getting involved with some of the giants of industry, local government and health care groups that spend 100,000 to 400,000 a year on their phone bills.

IDN shows companies how much they are spending on such costs, and how much can be saved by choosing an alternative carrier. Once the client is convinced, IDN negotiates terms or commission with the suppliers, who are grateful for the introduction of such valuable business, and charges the clients a fee for the cost saving advice.

Having recommended the best solution, IDN arranges appropriate contracts, service provision and migration across to the new provider - importantly it also reviews the operations regularly and advises on further changes when necessary.

In a market estimated to be worth some 4bn a year, and everybody looking to cut costs, IDN is building a reputation. SQC Research has been looking at the company and says: 'The management is committed to cash flow, profitability and revenue growth - all of which are showing continuous improvement. Big profits are now ahead, against which there are more than 4m of tax losses to use.'

The research group is setting a target price of 6p a share by the end of 2005, virtually double the current market price. That would be good news for Mr Roberts.

The iterims were decribed as showing 'Robust Revenue Growth' and 'Continued Growth in Profitability', so if this has continued then 6p is certainly possible. Come Monday, we will have a better idea as to how things are going.

Commenting upon their interim results Chairman Barry Roberts said:

'The group's trading performance in the first half of the current financial year
has been particularly pleasing, with higher revenues, significant profits and
greater balance sheet strength. The results give us greater confidence that the
performance improvements will continue for the foreseeable future.'
Chairman's Statement

Revenues grew by 38% to close at 6,017,000, whilst profits before tax increased
from 5,000 in the equivalent period last year to 285,000 this year. Earnings
before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation closed at 425,000, a rise
of 300,000 on the same period last year.

Gross margins closed at 30%, in line with the same period last year. Overheads
continue to reduce and now amount to 25% of revenues, as compared to 29% in the
same period last year.

Results are due on Monday. Let's hope the Chairman's optism was justified.
