A potential growth stock ? Company is already profitable and debt free. They provide digital audio and video content to radio stations and tv stations. They appear ideally poised to take advantage of both digital radio advertising and digital tv content such as music videos. They have a fast and comprehensive digital distribution network so a new pop song can be didgitally sent to all radio stations with a press of a button. No more Cd's and videos by courier service.

Liquidity and spread are the only short term problems but the shares look good value. IMHO Any thoughts appreciated?

A great set of interims which conitue to deliver on the growth story. Once we get into the televsion market in a bigger way this will really take off. Well done IMD. IMHO

Hi Prophet

They say you should never fall in love with a share, but been with this one from the start and toped up when I could afford it. There seems to be so much upside on this one. You have Mr C Dunstone on board with 11% of the company, cant be bad for starters, and make about 34% net profit from turnover cant be bad. This is a great growth stock, which IMOP has a long long way to go.

See there is sombody else here, try ADVFN Board its not bad there is quite a few people on that one

Regards

Every pundit is searching the lists for stocks which will,ultimately, benefit from the upsurge in TV and Radio advertizing. Well, here's one that is telling you NOW that it has benfited. Issued @40p in Feb 02 it has but one competitor in its field. Insinger Townsley, the placing house, seem to believe that it has growth potential and have, I believe, just been recommending it to their clientele.The sophistication of the UK TV and Radio market ensures a ready acceptance of IMD technology - but this leaves Europe, where IMD has a presence.
This one might well test the 100p level withing months.

Well the story is unfolding very nicely. Up over 140% since March and still set to fly high.

Quite pleased with only a 2.5p drop yesterday, more buys than sells, funny old game Isnt it. Ready for a rollercoaster ride next week, stock very illiquid.

Hi all

Dont know if anyone has noticed that IMD has all ready started delivering adverts to the TV networks, just checkout the site. The results should be good come the end of the month. They seemed to have kept it very quite. Here are the links.

The price is still heading north and loads more upside to come. IMHO

Looking forward to the results on Friday. Every chance that IMD will rise sharply once the news update is absorbed by the market. I expect the results and outlook to be very good. IMHO

MM's moving the price lower on no volume? Are they looking to get some stock by Friday? This one is tightly held and the results should ensure that remains so.

look at the trades.Insinger Townsley is a buyer BUT there is a BIG seller

Well the results are out and they are very good. This is a fantastic story that will get better and better.

IMD looks like a great growth stock with very little downside risk.
Todays results show Pre Tax profits up 46%, Earnings per Share up 43%, Sales up 27%, a rising dividend, no debt and a cash pile. Also director Charles Dunston (boss of Carphone Warehouse) bought 520,000 worth of shares in nov 2003.
With expansion into TV broadcast services in its early stages, with an encouraging start, this looks like a good time to buy - before the major institutions latch onto the story.

Chairman David Haynes said that over the next 6 weeks, now that successful trials have completed, IMD will be rolling out its digital network service into all TV systems. This is for broadcast quality advertising and music video.This is a major milestone for the company.

This should generate a lot of interest if it takes off. If it fails, there is still the profitable radio business to fall back on.

The shares have been in a strong uptrend since last june, going from 30p to 75p.

See www.imdonline.co.uk for more details.

A move back up yesterday was to be expected. This share still looks great for the year ahead. I was listening to a contributor on Bloomberg TV this morning commenting on the UK economy going forward. He was citing the sharp growth in radio advertising as a key indicator of the improving economic situation. I really can't see why the platform should not work as well on TV. IMHO

Prophet,
Another good omen for this company is its sector performance. The 'Media and Entertainment' sector has outperformed the FTSE100 by 50% over the past year. This is due to TV and radio companies increasing their profits once again after a long slump. More money to spend on advertising and hopefully thru IMD!

Nice move forward today. IMD tends to trade on low volume I can't wait for other folk to wake up to this share. Get in now and make yourself some money. IMHO DYOR!

Yesterdays AGM announcements were all positive. Of particular note:-

"Even though the rollout of station installations is still continuing, the level of customer support has been stronger than expected and it is clear that revenue potential is substantial."

"This month marks a critical milestone with the move to generating revenue
following the completion of trials and the commencement of normal commercial
pricing. We are already seeing significantly rising revenue from a rapidly
expanding customer base."

"Profit margins should recover steadily during the year
as revenue from the new television service grows."

Shares jumped 7.5% on this news yesterday and are up further as at 10am today

Can see the advertising revenues for t v being substantially more than the radio market. September half way figures should clarify this and then we will really nowhere we are going. 2 years time who knows?

Well the story continues to develop as planned. Both BT and the Post Office Pension Funds have now built up significant stakes in IMD, around 5% each. What we need now is even more coverage of the story to attract investors. I think this share is a cracker! IMHO DYOR

I think they should release it here first for us poor shareholders and why no rns?
