CMS Webview What is the potential for this share ? (CWV)     

GEOFFREY.R - 01 Nov 2003 16:46

I bought shares in this company at 4.5p in September 2003. I see they are rising. Can anyone tell me please the growth potential for this company as they have just been awarded several new contracts ?

SueHelen - 02 Dec 2003 18:26 - 816 of 1924

Good 100,000 buy at 13.5 pence towards close today and believe there was a 100,000 buy at 14 pence in the morning. May see more of these buys as insitutional holders etc start to look at this company with the view of the growth potential.

Article from Lemming Investor:

CMS WebView PLC (14.75), Founded in 1982, it`s area of expertise is real-time market data collection, processing and distribution. Until 1997, the company was a subsidiary of the London Commodity Exchange and latterly LIFFE. In 1997 a management buy-out took place. In August 2000 the company listed on the London Stock Exchange's AIM market with the key objective of developing new markets for its latest-generation real-time data solutions.

CMS's lead product - Transactional Data Interface (TDI) - enables clients to control the collection, processing and distribution of mission critical data for their business needs. TDI customers include three of the world's leading futures exchanges - the London Metal Exchange (LME), the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) and the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT).

CMS is also a well-established provider of Digital Data Feeds (DDF) for the wholesale market. The company has developed DDF using its proprietary TDI software and carries a wide range of real-time data directly from many of the world's leading futures and options exchanges.

CMS has also entered into an agreement with USA based Data Transmission Network
LLC (DTN) to market its PC based price reporting service (ProphetX) in Europe, this represents a major opportunity for CMS to target the high-end sector of the quote vendor terminal market.

ProphetX is a professional real-time market display and analysis product for commodity traders that has been developed by US company DTN Market Access. Typically priced at 200 per month per terminal, it has already proved popular in the USA, selling over 4,000 terminals.

The ProphetX system combines live market data, powerful analytical tools, as well as up-to-the minute news. ProphetX can be internet-delivered or installed on a firm's network. And because it has been developed for use on standard Microsoft platforms, users are already familiar with the on-screen environment. Moreover, the system can be accessed remotely, allowing it to be used when traders are away from their desks.

ProphetX is owned by US-based Data Transmission Network (DTN) and CMS WebView has an exclusive licence to distribute the product in the UK.

ProphetX is a cost-effective professional real-time market display and analysis product. The overall package combines data display and charting software with DTN's proprietary feed of real-time quotes, news, weather and technical analysis. News sources include Dow Jones, Platts, Oster Dow Jones, Petroleum Argus, OPIS, and BTU.

Since The ProphetX system was rolled out in July 2003 when CMS first began fully marketing the product in the UK, CMS has signed up a total of 15 companies, these include Vitol and E.D & F Man, both international commodities trading companies, Fortis Bank and Olam International, the latest contract is with Nidera UK Ltd, a leading supplier of cereals, oilseeds and proteins to domestic and international markets.

Commenting on the new client wins, Bob Antell, Chief Executive of CMS WebView,
said: 'We're very pleased to welcome Nidera UK among our growing list of clients. The level of sales of ProphetX over the last three months has been most encouraging, which proves that there's clearly an appetite for a commodities price display system that's easy-to-use, has high quality data and news, yet is very competitively priced.'

Mark Dordery, Managing Director of Nidera UK Ltd., said:
'We wanted a real-time market data and analysis system that met all our needs in terms of functionality, reliability and cost effectiveness. It had to be intuitive to use and be backed up with good customer support. ProphetX is a fully professional system that fits this description perfectly.'

CMS estimates the target market for ProphetX to be worth over two hundred million pounds per annum in Europe. CMS will receive a significant percentage of annual revenues from ProphetX sales in the UK reflecting its substantial investment in the sales, marketing and customer support operations.

CMS reported it`s interims results September 18, 2003, The Company reported increased turnover to 905,000 during the six months ended 30 June 2003, representing an improvement of 55% compared with the same period last year (2002: 583,000). This significant increase primarily reflects the continued success the Company has had in sales of its market-leading Transactional Data Interface (TDI) product. It is also encouraging to see losses before taxation in the period have been reduced to 116,000, representing an improvement of 66% compared to the same period last year (2002:loss of 345,000). To have considerably boosted revenues and substantially reduced losses is very encouraging in the light of continuing tough trading conditions.

Sue happy to hold stock through all this stormy water, yet concerned that a placing may occur below current levels, do i have any reason to doubt this

SueHelen - 02 Dec 2003 18:35 - 819 of 1924

Thanks ckmtang and others for your appreciation. I hope you guys do hold out like myself for the medium term by when you should have witnessed a better rise than the one we have witnessed already to the 18-20 pence levels.

Have a good evening all,

Hopefully if I manage to get my work done then I should be on the thread during the day.

Best Wishes,

Sue.

SueHelen - 02 Dec 2003 18:40 - 821 of 1924

Hi littlejon, no one can precisely say at what price it will be carried out at. But I have mentioned at these prices as a result of the trading yesterday and today.

There is nothing to worry about as the company is not raising money for survival but for their TDI products. Also, the completed fundraising announcement will come with a trading statement and a note from Corporate Synergy. As it is I would expect the price to recover greatly once the fundraisng has been put into place and I would expect possibly the fundraising bits and pieces to have completed by the end of this week.

Just as a comparison Gresham rose from 3.00 to 4.00 on the back of their fundraising with no new contracts due to the growth potential. Whereas CMS will also be announcing new contracts etc so I would expect a much more explosive rise.

Best Regards,

Sue.

SueHelen - 02 Dec 2003 18:43 - 822 of 1924

Ajren, I explained my price predictions yesterday. Please read my posts for the last four weeks, that is since I have been a holder. I have always mentioned the same arguments for my price predictions. Sometimes it is better to look at the stock in a medium term view rather than short term gains which I think you are after. This is after seeing your barrage of comments on all the threads listed on this site.

GoodLuck.

Sue.

SueHelen - 02 Dec 2003 18:47 - 823 of 1924

Just to add I have answered why 50 pence in my posts last night. I just don't want to be repeating things that have already been posted. With regards to Cobra asking me that question, do you not think it is amusing that Cobra managed to scribble some lines in the afternoon on this thread telling everyone to buy and now presumably he/she are not too sure themselves. Maybe, you should put the question to Cobra with regards to their scribbles in the afternoon telling everyone to buy with no reasons why.
I have always mentioned my reasons for buying, that is called research.

Evening now,

Sue.

ajren - 02 Dec 2003 18:53 - 824 of 1924

This is after seeing your barrage of comments on all the threads listed
on this site - said by Sue to me

I am not hear to defend myself.I let others - the many who thank me on the
threads - speak.

You demean Yourself by becoming personal.

Fact 1 : Closed at 13 today
Fact 2 : Your 50 p at Christmas.Cobra asked you about this and you did not
answer

thestatusquo - 02 Dec 2003 19:12 - 825 of 1924

Axe, you failed to answer my questions! You failed to offer a critique of the very reasoned and accurate revenue research of "Happy to Watch"

I will happily eat humble pie if you answer my questions.

On the information which is in the public domain, how do you value this share at 26pence on Thursday? Am I de-ramping by asking you to explain? Or are you ramping by providing a guess and no back-up?

And Sue? Your efforts are fantastic. But come on! Be honest. You dont know any more than the rest of us? All info you have provided, I have been provided by my brokers or the net. Nothing new! All public domain. 50 pence by Christmas???

Charts are all very nice. But the movement has only occurred since share tip! Flatlined before that!

Price action was driven by small private investor trades. Any big boys take a piece at higher prices? or will they wait to get some at 10pence?

After all the speculation nonsense spouted on this board abates, this stock will revert to a price trend linked to profit growth. Not notional profits in 5 years time, but real profits in todays money.

If the dotcom boom of 2000 has taught any of us any lessons, it should be that the markets love affair with dream stocks is a fickle one! With no profits, prices can go down every bit as quickly as they go up.

ckmtang - 02 Dec 2003 19:17 - 826 of 1924

i think sue predict 50P that mean she is so optimistic of this share.

thestatusquo - 02 Dec 2003 19:19 - 827 of 1924

Ohhhhhhhh Sue!

And I thought you knew this company intimately!

You bought on the Share Mag tip as well!! 4 weeks ago!

You really arent an insider then?

You're just like me! A mere investing mortal!

This should send a huge "DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH" message to all of us!!!

game_boy - 02 Dec 2003 20:08 - 828 of 1924

It seems that this thread has gone the way many well researched and presented threads go as soon as their is the first sign of a retrace in price....SueHelen keep up your good work and ignore the timewasters who only come to criticise....its funny how many people like to blame others for their misfortune or to find an easy target for their petty comments...we are all adults and should learn to behave in that way....

thestatusquo..ajren and others who are quick to complain.....if you are so sure of your own thinking...stick with it....feel free to present your views in a logical and well researched way....but don't criticise others for trying to do the same thing...and don't expect any answers to your style of questioning from people on these boards...personally I would not spend one minute of my time responding to characters like yourself as I am confident in my own research and do not need to justify my position to anyone.....I'm in this business to make money...not to answer to smart arses on BB's !!

None of us have all the answers...and no-one is right all of the time...but some of us at least have the conviction to put our money behind what we believe in...and have more sense than to belittle what we don't..

northrop - 02 Dec 2003 20:25 - 829 of 1924

Does anyone have the link confirming revnue for 4000+ desks goes to CWV?

tobyjug - 02 Dec 2003 21:08 - 830 of 1924

Sue.Thanks.

BANKONE - 02 Dec 2003 21:28 - 831 of 1924

This share was 8.75 some 2 weeks ago. MM stepped in and pushed it to nigh on 22.5 RNS gave a statement as to the share price re further cash call. Since that date the share has rocketed yet it still is only worth approx 10p. Take the benefit of the profit and get out. IMOH is that this stock is being well manipulated and you out there are funding it without a cash callper the RNS by hyping this one thro the roof when it has no basement value more that 10.25p. Good luck but there are only wrappers to pick up not profit. Sympathy to those who bought at a premim over and above the Bid offer last week DYOH

axe79 - 02 Dec 2003 22:06 - 832 of 1924

See the same derampers here as elswhere on other boards today.....why do they do it? Its not if they are saying anything positive...i.e. if it gets to 10p I will buy 200k's worth!

I myself do not waste my time with things that I do not believe will make me money. No need to ramp, cause i'm not selling out if the price hits 20p of whatever. I will think about taking some profit around 1, but no one is getting my holdings on the cheap! If i'm wrong and the stock looses me money, so be it, but it is my call and I'm sticking with it. You know there is some people that can't tell the difference between good and bad......Thats life I suppose.

momentum - 02 Dec 2003 22:31 - 833 of 1924

question for sue,why where you purchasing at 16p and above knowing that a placing was on the cards.As soon as the placing was announced i stopped purchasing, it seemed fairly obvious the price would be around the price ,when their intention where first stated. I do not own any stock at present sold out between 15 -15.5p. However got my trigger set for the next upward push. If fundraising doesnt come out soon, price will drift lower and lower. Remember stocks deliver most gains 20% of the time, the other 80% is spent trading sideways or going down.Does hurt to sell and buy back. T A is a good tool.

momentum - 02 Dec 2003 22:44 - 834 of 1924

7 days now and the price has closed below its open. I give it a blue day tomorrow, purely on probability after spiking down to 11.5p.Thursday ,friday another red days. Target 10p.

ntk98 - 02 Dec 2003 23:58 - 835 of 1924

hi,

Some express concern about the expectation regards speed & price level guess roaming on this board, who ever thought that since May some stock have jumped 3xfolds, some 5 folds? What can be a reason that a stock can not increase 200% in three weeks, when it has the right product, has the right marketing team and has a right timing and a little of luck.

Some argue 3 contracts, 5 contracts, 12 contracts aren't big enough to worth mention it. In my opinion exchange market isn't an easy place to fool, so to be able to sale product to them, even only one most simple piece of the whole exciting product range is worth counting already. CMS has done the first good step, put their feet into the door, they have brought their product to CME, CBOT, DTN; chose a better house broker, and reasonably well try to advert their company in the professional look, and content of their website.

IMO many companies do quite profitable just by starting that small sale business style, if you remember to put training, sw maintenance, sw service in to the calculation. Here earning can easy be 5, 10 fold the initial cost as a piece of sw or equipment is never good enough, until the skilled\trained worker\employer coming along and unrelease their potential. I think you could have known already by the look at SAP, Sage, Telelogic, SDL, sharescope, metastock, updata, paritec etc... Training subscriptions , SW service and data feeding definitely bring revenue not the SW itself. Pls don't forget that some other smaller less professional companies have booked some 50K, 80K a week-end only on training subscriptions. One example is I used to work in a small comp the company which bought a small SW package, initial cost was broken part of the expensive training cost 1.2k each head, and several months training would cost the comp less then 5K. Result is 6 months later using the SW in reality the company did make the initial cost good, in reducing cost in production/logistic by nearly 100k, without mention that their clients were much more happy due to less delay in delivery etc, what I last knew is they moved on to a more advanced package, and hoped to achieve similar profit. If you want to know what kind of SW it was, it was SAGE STERLING standard package. That is why some of us think CWV has lots of future potential, even with 100 contract the first year from now.

Back to Now-situation, expectation is that news would be release soon, that is what investors concern in order to make more expectation on what CWV business is capable of. And, news did arrive this weeks, as Sue has predicted. At first I did not believe her that news arrive so soon. I was wrong, she has earn a point. So pls what ever happen, be fair and give people awards they should earn.

Retracement has been predicted by quite a number of people and clearly expected by many. You were right to foretell the price would retrace to 13p, what an insane idea (!) but it is today, I admit this level is unexpected. By the look of orders, and interest it should have at least bounced from the SMA10 line. So you on the side of critics has earn a feather. Still, if your intention is concerning about wrongly ramping, concern about the pushing price level, brain washing which was the cause why most investor did not expect the price fall, I would have appreciated that you had mentioned as well FTSE dive today, most of stock are red apart from defensive\counter stock, and over two third of them on my list do not rise or are red as well, market is confusing after all the bombings and profit taking. In general, most of technology stocks suffer recently, particular the one which have risen fast and you should have mention as well that an unease spreads on the world market with speculation because now-aday good-news-releases temp to trigger price fall not the usual rise! No one really understand why. I appreciate your contra view, but pls stay fair, try to be on be on a discussion level that the thread is unaffected by the use of word, style. The thread is for information, measurement of sentiment level, good for every one what ever technique one chose to trade. Which means the board belong to all, nor the pros nor the contras only.

Thanks, please keep up the good work in providing information and apology for the lengthy post
