zoo holding on? (ZOO)     

nmjnmj - 22 Oct 2003 18:52

Well, after a drop of 13%, zoo holds on with a 9% gain today. The question is, when is the next big news due? It took around 2 months to surge from 8.5 to 17+ so will we have to wait that long again?

azhar - 24 Oct 2003 12:48 - 8 of 29

Thanx dclinton. The shares have not been issued yet so does that mean a further 10% drop next week!

yngam - 26 Oct 2003 22:49 - 9 of 29

I think the calculation is a little wrong, issuing a little over 2million shares to give a total of 224million shares is not an issuance of 10%.

It is a lot less. The drop probably has more to do with the meteoric rise, traders and the top-slicing of holdings by some of the institutions.

It is however likely that at some point next year they will raise more capital, by issuing more shares.

yngam - you're right. 222m shares in circulation already. Issue is only about 1%.

The drop is simply bringing the price back down into the three and six-month trading ranges. Looking at the charts a similar peak happened in May and then it settled back in the same way.

azhar - it seems to me that the market largely factors these things into the price when announced. Otherwise if people knew there were a dilution coming the opportunity for arbitrage would be too great. I might expect a second drop of some kind at the time of the issue as people who missed the first news figured out what was going on. However, it's all academic in this case as I got the wrong figure for the number of shares in circulation. Remember, DYOR and don't rely on others to read the numbers correctly :-)

a very exciting opportunity in the fast growing DVD market. We can now look
forward to establishing commercial teams in the United States and Europe and to
launching our first DVD Software product, DVD-Extra Studio, in North America
during April 2004 with a professional infrastructure to support key customers.



Through working closely with key companies in the Film and Video, Multimedia,
Corporate and Educational sectors on our Early Adopter program we have clearly
established that our tools allow customers to create complex interactive
DVD-Video content far more quickly, more reliably and more cost effectively.
Indeed it is now also possible to create interactive content for use on standard

The funds raised put us in an excellent position to exploit our unique
technology worldwide over the next 3 years.'

Encouraging news I think. Interactive DVDs will become the norm in my opinion. So ZOO are in a good position to take advantage with there software.

New write up in Shares Mag. Broker recommendation looks positive but a little conservative.
Institutions to star in Zoo’s new shares release

A 5.75 million fundraising for Zoo Digital (ZOO), up for EGM approval on 12 December, will see new institutional investors join the share register of the DVD technology firm.

Chief executive Ian Stewart is also converting a 750,000 loan to the company into new shares. The sale of 54.7 million shares will boost existing equity by 24%, giving a market capitalisation of 30 million.

Analyst Andrea Kirkby at Hardman & Co, an independent research firm, forecasts pre-tax profits rising from 47,000 this year to 605,000 in 2004 and 1.4 million in 2005. Currently at 10.5p, dealing in the new shares begins on 17 December.

Shares says: The placing will secure Zoo’s growth plans.

cheers GF.

From Investtech:

Watch (Medium term) - Dec 12, 2003
Has risen 355% since the bottom on 5 Mar 2003 at 2.75. Has broken through the floor of a rising trend channel. This indicates a slower rising rate at first, or the start of a more horizontal development. The stock has support at p 10.00. The poor liquidity of the stock (traded 100% of the days, mean 9.52 mill per day) may weaken the analysis.

Best Wishes,

Sue.

I'm holding on for a Happy New Year with Zoo, but fear I may have to wait some while before any significant rise in price. Following recent issue of shares, any thoughts from fellow investors would be welcome.

skids - 31 Dec 2003 15:21 - 27 of 29

agree with you josephine, very similar to SPS in that respect. both have good products and patents are in place, but it will take some time for the industry to start using it.
