Founded in 2007, RM2 is a vertically-integrated innovator in pallet development, manufacture, supply and management. Recognising that there are significant costs and drawbacks associated with traditional pallets, RM2 has established a disruptive presence in global pallet supply and aims to improve the supply chain of manufacturing and distribution businesses through the effective and efficient use and management of composite pallets.
RM2 has designed and manufactured the BLOCKPal™ pallet, a multi-trip, heavy duty composite pallet that is suitable for use in both automated and manual areas of the supply chain where there are high levels of movements. The composite material and the associated manufacturing process is designed to bring qualities of strength, durability, flexibility and scale of production as well as other benefits. The BLOCKPal™ pallet has been independently tested by leading institutions and has been shown regularly to outperform comparable products and industry standards.
RM2 aims to change the way its customers look at pallets from a consumable to an asset that can generate significant accretive profit margin. To do this, we align ourselves with potential customers – typically large manufacturing, distribution and retail businesses – to provide an integrated solution to their pallet and pallet movement needs, whilst interacting with other logistics partners, as necessary. RM2’s products have been developed in consultation with these customers and are designed to provide receivers of goods with greater visibility over costs and the ability to reduce the direct and indirect costs associated with inbound goods movements.
RM2 can supply its pallets and the associated services on a rental basis to closed loops or by outright sale and its production method is versatile enough to easily supply standard or bespoke pallets.

judging by the quote and the spread, most of the 'sells' are really buys. Look out for a humungous sell and then maybe it has a chance of rising.

I don't see any rush to jump in yet, as the news flows it will hopefully be a different story.

It's a great story, I was going to invest on the opening day, but according to the admission doc no revenue for the last 3 years and no inventories, so I held back. Still interested, but its a wait and see. The big plus for the story is that Neil Woodford is a major investor.

Market has misunderstood pallet maker as IPO gains fade
Pallet maker RM2 International (RM2:AIM) is trading below the 88p issue price for this month’s IPO (6 Jan) creating an opportunity. Investors have worried about high-profile sector flops and a lack of detail on contracts in the admission document. But we see strong upside based on long-term rental contracts generating significant cashflow.
The earnings forecast blackout period ends next week (Feb 6), at which point forecasts are likely to underline the £244 million cap’s strong growth potential. The firm is also poised to update the market on its plans, although Shares can reveal that several pilot projects have already turned to full contracts.
‘A huge amount of logistics info has been exchanged between clients and us by the time it gets to the pilot stage,’ says chief executive officer (CEO) John Walsh, underlining the strong relationships which the company develops with potential customers. ‘We’re not simply handing them a pallet to test. We believe the conversion rate from pilots to contracts will be almost 100%.’

Revenue, profit and cash generation is essentially a story for 2015 and beyond. This year is about building scale and turning pilots to contracts. Walsh reckons revenue will hit $250 million next year and then double in 2016. He attributes the falling share price since the first day’s spike to long-standing investors exiting.

thought i'ld have another look at these, but apart from the fact th it's one of these x-auction, MM-only stocks, the margin requirements are ridiculous - IG quote 25% for up to 5,000 shares and then 41% thereafter to 30,000
question - is it worth buying just 5,000 shares = <£4,000?
==============
having dwelt on it, i decided it wasn't a bad longer term punt as i certainly like the idea and concept - and even understand it!
