LONDON (AFX) - FFastFill PLC saw its pretax loss narrow in the six months to Sept 30 2003.

It said the past six months has been a period of consolidation and progress for the company providing a strong platform from which to launch its new application service offerings.

The results show a pretax loss of 1.2 mln stg compared with 2.6 mln and a massive 317 pct increase in turnover to 1.6 mln stg.

The group said it has made good progress in bringing forward the next generation of software; this is planned for delivery during the first half of 2004.

'We now have a strong pipeline, which will lead to more new customer signings later this financial year,' it added.

Cash at the end of September was 1.588 mln stg, down from 2.45 mln. No interim dividend is proposed.

Executive chairman Keith Todd said that, while budgets for IT expenditure in the financial services sector remain constrained, derivatives volumes are growing and prospects and customers are looking for efficiency improvements in the delivery of their technology.

'The board has confidence in the competitiveness of the company's software and services and in its ability to deliver its plans.'

Thoughts anyone?

I see the Play of the Week spread in Shares Magazine has already had an effect this morning.

Ditched the dog ! (IDOX) should have done this a month or two ago to keep a small profit but didn't.
profit warnings rarely come in with one only so... reckon this is going down to 4p-ish (imho)

Now gone into FFA... the're on the up... (imo)
Will get some more in the next week at these levels.
Was in moneyweek last week repeating the shares mag rec.
should do well in the 6/12 mnth timeframe (imo)

Welcome skyhigh. FFA is one of those small stocks that I really feel has potential. So much so that I've sat on them through some pretty lean times and it'll take a lot of northwards momentum to get them anywhere near where I first bought in but I'm quietly confident.

This should help....from today's Shares Magazine......

Its just about time for the next announcement from Ffastfill.. Michael our 70 year old was updating on FFA at our morning coffee meeting at the OAPs shareclubuk he had noted that there was some upward movement on the SP so far last week we are making a small profit of close on 200 on the investment with FFA .. The next report from FFA should be most interesting Its about time for the company to announce another Global Bank for the CME FX Reuters service Any one out there who has any news on the company outside of the companys own announcements.. ?

myway... no other news but must be a good time to top up methinks (imo) can only be onwards and upwards from here..

whats more, is that interim results must be due this week or early next as last yr they were announced 17thNov and 11thNov yr before that !

Michael our 70 year old came into the shareclubuk coffee meeting this morning with a copy of the FFastFills interim results..

The company has now made the transformation from software products to one of an Application Service Provider serving the electronic trading community benefits from this scaleable business model are starting to show results

Revenue is up by 21% .. EBITDA has reduced loss by 45% to 0.680 million. With positive trading September - October Loss this time around was 1.289m.. Cash in hand was 1.271m

We are living in a new world.. Paper work has all but gone to be replaced by software platforms that can support multiple asset classes.. This is FFastFills market place which is opening up a number of important strategic opportunities for the company with the major institutions.. To my mind FfastFill should expand over the next trading period..

So, a potential offer then........

Well someone is looking over the books... I note that the big boys are starting to buy in . at this stage its sit on your hands and wait... follow shareclubuk.co.uk as all the news is posted there.....

I bought in at 11p many moons ago so it'd be nice to get back somewhere close at least!

So a potential bid. www.ffastill.com - why now?

Profitability around the corner, some big client wins....

Does anybody know who is considering a bid for ffastfill?

Must admit have weighed in & bought some more.

Any idea on who is talking to FfastFill re a possible offer for the company? The 28 day period is just about up.. An announcement should be made this coming week.. Reuters could be in the frame to make a move?

Ffastfill Plc Someone is looking at the books.. The Market Makers are holding the price at 7.88p which gives share-club-uk a profit of 111%. I have taken out the book price by selling off some shares. Now the big question is do I sell and take all of the profits or sit tight and wait for the outcome? Very soon we will find out the true intent of the company that has made the approach regarding a possible offerthe big question is the level of a bid.. If indeed there is a bid Any input please?.. deal or no deal? My own feeling is that FFA has a first class product. So I cannot see a fall in the S.P. in any case.. This week should be most interesting

Ffastfill Plc Approach regarding a possible offer for the company Patsystems is suspected of having an interest in Ffastfill.. However there could be a number of different people looking at the company.. A major shareholder, even a Bank or a competitorInside track market sources news is that any offer at all would have to be in the region of 14p conservatively, so a bid between 14p to 25p would be needed to get the board interested. However with the cost base now fixed and profits around the corner (with no tax to pay for a while, as they have been making a loss for so long). Who knows what they could be worth going it alone......
