Sells outwiegh the buys by 3,000,000 a lot of people don't seem very impressed with todays news
AUTO

The news was good - not what we expected - but another piece in the jig saw.

SEO is a bit like the swan - maintaining a serene outlook above the surface whilst paddling like hell beneath the surface.

There appears to be an awful lot going on at the moment - and I think our expectations are perhaps a bit optimistic. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind where this share is going - I just cannot fathom the timeframe. I have always said that I would be ecstatic with 30 by Xmas and over the moon with anything more - a view I still hold.

Baza Hi,

RE the Wal-Mart article, I think you have the right line there, I can only sumise the same, as the article was sent to me by e-mail, I din't know about it before then.

Cheers,
PM

automatic,i've just looked at trades and it looks pretty much even. quite a large 4 million wt trade. was that you , baza?

Hi Bos - yeah - but they only managed to work half the deal !!! - still cheap at twice the price imo

Baza

Baza & Paul

Whilst I sincerely hope that you are both right, I think that it is a little to simplistic to just assume that because Natureworks and WalMart are doing a presentation at the Exhibition in Philly that there will be an announcement about a tie up with SEO.

Can anybody confirm with a degree of certainty that the 4m trade after hours was a buy?

Hope so as that will bolster any flagging moral following a less than exhilirating RNS today in comparison to what we would hope it would be.

Having said that, I do believe that this share is going to move sharply north when that announcement comes.

The oily one

Looks like a second 4m buy after 5pm. That'll keep the price supported tomorrow.

Perhaps "that" big announcement is nearer than we all think!

The oily one

Hi Oily,

You mentioned last week that you would let us know the name of the supermarket trialing Starpol on Wednesday this week after the EGM. Still ok to do so ?

Hi All,

Those WT trades may not be buys, they could just as easily be sells.

It takes all day to fill the WT trade, and they are floating in the middle of the overall prices today ....

Tomorrow will tell ....

Cheers,
PM

Can anyone advise what a WT trade is?

2006, I expect this company to become a blockbuster.
A good one for Buffet to hold and hold and see it grow and grow?

stateside

I sold the last of mine today, hope to buy back in if the price drifts on no news, will try anyway to get back in bye Oct 17th.

Sellsell

I think that you should change your name to buybuy!

Will hopefully touch base with my students and let you know if the news is positive, which I fully expect it to be.

The oily one

thanks Oily , i have bought loads since 6p and just waiting patiently for the big payoff !

thanks for your input

sharesure said he would be writing up his thoughts on todays egm later this evening. i can't wait......

or even "holdhold" might reflect actuality more acurately!?

I thought today's announcement and the EGM news was spot on. You get to the top of the mountain not so much by what you do as by the fact that no one stops you. When was the last piece of "stopping" news froom SEO? They move onwards and upwards - remember they are not trading the share, they are adding value to the business which is what I have invested in.

aldwick, I'm interested to see if you called it right - possibly, but I'm backing the incipient break through the 22p resistance, having just about conquered and sustained the 50dma today.

btw - I read both those 4m trades as buys going through at > 21.125 which was mid price at close of business today - what else supported the SP consistently above 21p in the face of all those other sells, do you think?

sd

the news was unexpected ( by me at least due to the real slalwarts attending the egm.......I MEAN.....what a kick in the goolies to release an RNS when peeps are on the train scoffing their marmite sarnies ). i took this opp to exit with a rather nice profit. if i cant buy back cheaper so be it......but BUY BACK i will when the conditions are right.

ok Bos, I think I have a good idea where the BBQ sauce should go!! Unforutnately the RNS wasn't a short term ripper, but I remain confident that all the building blocks are being assembled.

My take on todays meeting:
Present: Ch. Philip Lovegrove, MD Ian Balchin, FD Robert Boardman, Co. Sec.Robert Duggan. The rest out there somewhere getting in the business.

Biotec resolution and other resolutions passed easily. Confirmed that SP Metal take half the debt of Biotec and that SEO retain a golden share, so control events.

RF sealing: 5 orders for retrofits; each new machine providing a reference site for future orders. ASDA committed to helping SEO secure 200+ conversions within the exclusivity period which ends on 27/8/06. SEO really pleased at the potential for the Mondini deal because they will be manufacturing an RF machine and selling into an annual marketplace of 6000-7000 new machines. With a winning technology I would have thought it reasonable to reckon they might get at least another 200 machines (approx. 3% of that new market). SEO confirmed that those new machines would all attract licence fees in the same way as retrofits. Others may think I am being too conservative; certainly SEO werent going to be drawn on that, perhaps because they genuinely do not know either.

SEO get paid 1/4ly in advance on retrofits so cashflow position for that work, as and when it speeds up, is good.

SEO confirmed that the company has sufficient cash for the next 18months without any further orders coming in. (Very unlikely to be tested on that front, I think )

Walmart: slow progress. Walmart have HR considerations to surmount in order to do what they want to do, ie move away from in-house butchery (!). SEO talking to many other supermarkets in the States, so pressure should build on Walmart to decide their position or risk losing out.

Bioprogress court case: not now taking mgt. time but still an irritation. I got the impression that it really is an unwelcome, but fairly insignificant, sideshow.

Where now??? My impression was one of a mgt. team really pulling out all the stops to capitalise fast on their technologies; possibly slightly disappointed at how long it is taking to get the message across to Asda suppliers, but very much expecting a snowball effect as and when other retrofits take place. The big unknown, but possibly easier money, may be made on the Mondini deal where they will be doing most of the work.

I hope that gives a fair account of the extras I got from attending the meeting but Baza can fill in the gaps or add to this as he was working the tea & biscuits time separately

Aldwickk, I think you sell is going to cost you.
