Hello my friend.
I wasn't speaking about him today, I was trying to bring ftse conversation to our room and to look at scipher from that point.I love stockmarket & I dont see things clear in this Company, and I just want clever steps from them, becouse if they keep saying bad news this is going to be very bad and I dont see the resons.
why they have to do it like this? EG ERON Company had a very bad result but untill the end they were fighting with everybody againg them.and I dont see them fighting at all RICHARD

whats up with this company i brought at 7.15 pounds three years ago????i believed in this company so much has a real winner.how wroug was i!!!!!!!

Keep faith! showing blue today.

Greetings all SIP holders
I really thought this was going to bomb this week.
However, it has really held up very well considering the market falls of the last few days.
After a few quiet days trading, there seems to be some interest in it today.
I believe that the share is about to wake up from it's slumber.
Hope so........ I'm still holding a boat load.
My interpretation of it's charts, is that they also look encouraging.
Good luck to all.

If the charts look good maybe more blue next week. The management must be due to make some announcements soon they have been quiet for a long time!

Have had this company on my watch list for a while now, and with today's good news, I have finally jumped in, Here is the announcement everyone has been waiting for, or at least one of them anyway


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

29 March 2004

Scipher plc ('Scipher' or 'the Company')

Contract Wins and Year End Update

Contract Wins

Scipher is pleased to announce today that its Secure Identification business,
TSSI, has been awarded two contract wins with the National Health Service (NHS)
totalling 2.5m.

The first contract covers a three-year extension to TSSI's NHS smart card
systems programme that was originally set up to cover doctors in training. The
system is now being expanded to cover a wider group of cardholders including
all other hospital doctors and students within medical schools. The contract is
valued at 1.5m over three years.

The second is a maintenance contract for a three-year period that covers the
existing system installations and the central database management. Over 1000
installations are now in place under the original contract. The value of this
contract is 1.0m over three years.

The smart card system now interfaces with the General Medical Council
registrations system ensuring all doctors' registrations are accurately
recorded. To date, the project, designed and implemented by TSSI, has
successfully been rolled out to over 200 NHS Trusts throughout England. It is
the only NHS-wide system in place that manages doctors' occupational health and
personnel information hosted on a single national file server. The system
allows NHS Human Resource departments to easily record and confirm the
pre-employment checks essential to providing a safe service to patients.

Year End Update

On 5 February 2004, Dr Rudy Burger, CEO of Scipher, announced the outcome of
the strategic review that set out a plan to drive the Company to profitability.

The Company is executing on all aspects of its plan and is ahead of schedule in
a number of areas including its disposals programme.

In particular, solid progress has been achieved on a number of fronts that
include:

* Reductions in cash burn have enabled the Company to continue operating
within its banking facilities

* New senior appointments within Scipher, including Danny Chapchal as Deputy
Chairman and Duncan Penrose as Interim Corporate Finance Director

* New management within TSSI has delivered a notable turnaround in business
performance

* Assuming that the planned restructuring is completed then, in aggregate,
the three core businesses (TSSI, Wavelength and CRL Opto) are expected to
be profitable in the coming year.

As previously stated, the Company has a requirement to raise funds in order to
complete its restructuring and fund growth in its core businesses. Options that
are available to the Company are being pursued.

The Company expects revenues for the year ending 31 March 2004 to be of the
order of 15.0 million and the group operating loss to be less than in the year
ended 31 March 2003.

Dr Rudy Burger, CEO, said: 'We are well on the way towards achieving the
turnaround of Scipher's business. There are milestones yet to be achieved,
however I am confident that the progress made this quarter will allow us to
achieve our goals.'

finally positive news, hopefully share price will respond.

Greetings to all SIP holders, and welcome aboard Tokyo.
You will see from previous messages that I have been in this share since the results pre Xmas.
Bought in at 3.5p, watched it go to over 6p in the new year......
only to see it drift back (very painful)
However, this is a nice bit of good news and I see it climbing back over
recent highs and feel that the recovery will be more sustained this time.
Regards

Good news all fellow holders who have kept optimistic and given the new management a chance! I am hoping to retire on this one and I am waiting for more good news in the results. As my friend Richardo was not happy on all the bad announcements I hope he has also kept holding. A sustained recovery in sight!

Greetings to all SIP holders jejeje Tokyo welcome home.
my friend moneyplus , I will speak tomorrow.
regards Richard

Hey Richard, probably should have got in a couple of days sooner,but bought in at 3.75, I'm happy enough with that, look forward to your postings

Good luck to all holders
