Its good to see the Hang Seng volumes rising up as the price has neared the AIM price, obviously the internation arbritrages have done their job and purchased AIM and sold to Hang Seng.

There is only about 40% in the free float, and it seems that an ever rising amount is now on the Hang Seng, telling us stock is being moved over.

If you take it that now over 11% (of 40%) is now on the Hang Seng, and this figure has been rising steadily, thats proof.

You can check on this site searching for stock code 802

http://www.hkexnews.hk/sdw/search/search_sdw.asp

So, as we see, as the AIM price reaches parity with Hang Seng, so Hang Seng voumes rise, so lots of people previously not willing to buy on Hang Seng at a higher price are now willing to buy as the price reaches parity with AIM.

Still, results are just a couple of weeks away (confirmed 12th March) and we had a senior manager take up options, 400K of them, at 136p recently.

The outlook should therefore be very strong, and now we have parity, the prices should rise together on some good results.

The good thing about results is it will also "fill in" missing data on many Hong Kong financial sites, who are presently missing historic data etc.. as there have been no results from RCG on the Hang Seng. So once results are out, all the boxes will be ticked and people can very aware of the low rating RCG is on, which should be the sparks to light the fire of more and more demand from Hang Seng investors.

Not long to wait now.

Impressive move into a major new potential market.

http://www.investegate.co.uk/article.aspx?id=200903020700180540O

RNS Number : 0540O
RCG Holdings Limited
02 March 2009

RCG launches RFID solutions into the financial services sector

New clients include China Construction Bank and Bank of China

RCG Holdings Limited (HKEx: 802, AIM:RCG), an international provider of biometric and RFID products and solution services with a primary focus in the Asia Pacific markets, is pleased to announce that it has successfully launched its radio frequency identification ('RFID') technology into the financial services sector. The Company recently won contracts to supply and implement three technology solutions to improve on-site bank security and cashbox security, and to enhance customer experience for two of China's leading banks, China Construction Bank and Bank of China.

The contracts are part of RCG's growing portfolio of projects in Asia Pacific and the Middle East, which already cover the healthcare, transport, property, media, education, and entertainment industries.


Bank security

RCG, in collaboration with Hewlett-Packard (HP), has developed and deployed an IT Asset and Data Security Management Solution for the data centre of China Construction Bank ('CCB'). The first of its kind in the financial services sector, the solution combines location monitoring and tracking, data security and access control to improve security in the bank premises. It combines RFID technology in managing IT assets within data centre with real-time monitoring and visualisation capabilities. The solution incorporates secure access control measures into the system which enables the monitoring of authorised personnel in accessing data and eliminates data theft and tampering.

The system involves a specialised RFID antenna which RCG fully developed and the patent application for which is in process. The sophisticated solution has been designed to be highly scalable to a range of industry needs and adaptable to any data security requirements.


Customer experience

In addition, RCG has successfully implemented its VIP and cashbox management solutions at the Bank of China ('BOC'). RCG has developed its VIP Management Solution with the aim of improving user experience. As bank customers pass through the entrance, RFID readers identify the customer and alert customer relations managers so they can offer personalised banking service.


Cashbox security

RCG's new Cashbox Management System ensures the security of cashboxes at any stage of their transport between banks. The system utilises RFID technology to track and display individual cashboxes. It monitors and tracks the cashboxes being transported between locations and alerts the staff upon their arrival. The solution is also highly scalable and can be adapted for managing other assets in any industry. The system deployed at the BOC has been fully integrated with the bank's current operation, in particular the bank's existing customer relationship management programme. With the new system the bank can now improve its operation efficiency and security without additional efforts to adjust its core operations, while also enhancing its reputation by providing high-quality VIP service.

Raymond Chu, Chairman and CEO of RCG, said: 'We are delighted that we have successfully launched our pioneering RFID solution into the banking industry, and that two of the most prestigious banks in China have adopted our solutions. Our competitive project solutions are recognised by our banking industry clients as being ahead of current practice. We are also pleased to collaborate with HP in developing a solution that meets industry needs and exceeding their expectations.

We believe our pioneering RFID solution will set a higher standard for managing data security in the banking industry. We expect that we will redefine the standards in the adoption of RFID, one of the fastest-growing technology industries worldwide.

These developments are recognition of our efforts in providing highly value-added solutions for the Chinese banking sector. They show that we have been operating in the right vertical industry and we expect to continue to benefit from the rapidly growing Chinese market in the years to come.'

Noted by Zak Mir over at SC that RCG is heading for a "Golden Cross" moment with the 50 dma (red line) heading over the 200 dma (green line).

With results on the 12th of March being a key event, this could be one of those big moves up and Golden Cross...........

sp HK7.25 will it fall further if Hang Seng falls on tuesday after disappointing results from HSBC?

Proselenes - 02 Mar 2009 12:42 - 94 of 146

Its worth reading the Hang Seng listing document, but for thos who cannot be bothered this is one highlight from it :

Full Document : http://www.rcg.tv/html/eng/about/newsroom/investor_news/images/RCG%20fullset%20Eng.pdf

Extracts :

Page 11

In light of the current global economic crisis, the Directors have been monitoring the trading and financial position of the Group.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Group had not received any material cancellation of orders. The Company is also not aware of any of its existing suppliers or customers being in liquidation.

As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Group had not received any notice from its lenders in relation to an actual or threatened withdrawal of lending facilities, or for early repayment of outstanding loans or request for additional collateral.

The Directors will continue to monitor the Group’s financial position. In light of the above, the Directors consider that the trading and financial position of the Group in the near future will not be adversely affected in any material respect by the current global economic crisis.


halifax - 02 Mar 2009 12:44 - 95 of 146

pp you are ignoring market sentiment.

Proselenes - 02 Mar 2009 12:51 - 96 of 146

RCG is up.

Its now at parity with the Hang Seng and circa 66p a share.

And results are coming soon........wait until the results are seen by the Hang Send and Asian investors........and also wait for the directors to be able to buy stock too.

Interesting times ahead......... :)

Proselenes - 03 Mar 2009 04:55 - 97 of 146

Presently up on the Hang Seng at at 7.65HK$ levels = 70 pence.

Proselenes - 03 Mar 2009 12:12 - 98 of 146

Checking on the Hang Seng, it now appears of the 40% free float, 12% is now registered on the Hang Seng, so the remaining 28% is still on AIM presently.

However, as each day passes more stock goes on to the Hang Seng, each day the percentage gets higher.

You can check on this web site : http://www.hkexnews.hk/sdw/search/search_sdw.asp

Searching for stock code 802

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

60% of the stock is locked away by Offshore, Veron and the CEO (Full future) as per the main shareholdings :

http://www.rcg.tv/html/eng/investor/shares_information/index.jsp

Veron International Limited======64m=27.5%
Offshore Group Holdings Limited===62m=26.6%
Full Future Group Limited========18m=7.7%

The remaining 40% is what is on AIM/HS and so its presently 28% AIM and 12% Hang Seng.


We can know where the AIM weakness is/has been/could still be coming from, as it appears Blackrock Merrill Lynch are still selling, needing cash. If you look at their last holdings RNS, you will see the updated (24th Feb) information on the web site is a lower figure than the last RNS, so they have sold more since that RNS was out. They will next notify when they go below 3%, however, they can hold off this announcement for some time, meaning we will not know if they have 2.99% left or 0.01% at the time the holdings RNS comes out.

Roll on results...........12th March.

halifax - 03 Mar 2009 12:35 - 99 of 146

pp steady selling ahead of results?

Proselenes - 03 Mar 2009 12:42 - 100 of 146

Steady selling all along, which is why the SP went down to 30p levels, lucky there is a buyer too recently since the HK listing , and so the price is nice and stable between 60 to 70.

The big change is with results, and hopefully that will clear out Blackrock Merrill Lynch and by clearing out the seller, the price can move up a whole lot more and not be range bound below 100p anymore.

halifax - 03 Mar 2009 15:12 - 101 of 146

pp why is BML selling ahead of results next week when these results are supposed to be good? Are they stupid or do they kow something we don't?

Proselenes - 04 Mar 2009 00:41 - 102 of 146

halifax, BML have been selling for many months.

Its called "the credit crisis" and its why investment companies have been selling for many months many stocks and created the "stock market crash" that you see.

The markets go down if people sell, and lots of people and funds are selling, so markets fall.

The good thing is, in the face of BML selling, the SP is now going upwards and stable, which means someone else is buying.

If you had not noticed the headlines, I think you might find ML are in some "financial troubles" perhaps.............

Proselenes - 04 Mar 2009 02:57 - 103 of 146

A search today shows a jump on the Hang Seng from 12% of the 40% free float, to now 12.5%, so another 0.5% of the total shares in issue was moved from AIM to Hang Seng yesterday (or lets say the process completed yesterday, the transfer would have happened some time ago).

At this rate we should hit 20% Hang Seng / 20% Aim in a few weeks time (taking it that 60% are locked away with the big holders Veron/FF/Offshore).

People are saying "classic bullish pennant" on the charts, soon to be "golden cross" etc... but there is reason behind the TA.

A seller is selling and buyers are buying, creating a "pennant" at a higher value than the share previously was.

When the seller is cleared then yes, the SP should zoom upwards, so the "golden cross" could be completed.

Also we have results on the 12th March which could signal the buying to complete the bullish pennant and also the golden cross by clearing out the seller (who appears to be ML).

Once results are out, Asian investors have figures and outlook to base a decision to invest or not, directors and insiders can, if they want to, buy, and the company too can resume their share buy back programme.

All in all, fingers crossed and something not going wrong, yes, the outlook short and mid term is quite bullish for RCG.

Proselenes - 09 Mar 2009 03:24 - 104 of 146

Well its results week, and the week starts well on the Hang Seng, impressive volume and rising fast on the Monday morning in Hong Kong, lets hope this is due to more "outsiders" becoming aware of the potential in the results as they go through their approval process prior to release.

Roll on Thursday, lets see what Raymond has to say.

Proselenes - 09 Mar 2009 09:54 - 105 of 146


Good proactive move by the board.
