help not been trading long have got all the paperwork through to buy more shares at 21p what do you think any any advice as whether they are worth having or not any help would be most grateful

Yes, as I stated above, Siemens could buy the whole company around 128p a share, pay less for the whole company.....

Those who downgraded ISYS then are the main winners.

not yet clear what effect the capital repayment of 76p per share will have on the sp or their issued share capital of 815m shares, possible increase in dividend with next weeks results.

Sunday Times article suggests either Schneider Electric of France or Emerson of US are preparing to bid around 500P for ISYS. Results out next Thursday 16th May.
