have we got anybody out there holding this stock or am i the only one...really like this one ...have been holding for quite a while....cant work out why it keeps going down though...hasnt brought out any bad news although like many small stocks is news driven and whilst it doesnt bring out any news it flounders a bit....but saying that it has got very cheap now ....moneyam seems to have trades wrong though....i would say theyre buying for 4.12 and selling for 4.06 at the moment but most trades appear as sells....your thoughts would be appreciated

Sorry all, that market cap figure was totally wrong based on out of date information on the MoneyAM site (no doubt based on last annual report)
FT gives market cap as 9.5m.

beaufort1,

With regard to market cap figure i will get someone to look into this.

Ian

Thanks Ian

I have some VTB share but I don't expect any movement up on Tech cos as we can see the Nasdaq and FTSE Techmark going down......once the correction is over and both indices go up then expect VTB to start moving on up. Both indices have further to go (down) The Nasdaq is just pipping out the 200d moving average....any bounce back together with large volumes will signal the change in trend.

good buying going on today ....now up 0.25.....hope it continues

.

Market Cap as of 27.2.03 12Million

successful integration of our recent acquisitions is testament to our ability to
achieve this. The decision to integrate the three entities in to a single

solution.

We consider ourselves to be our clients trusted partner of choice and we intend

Virtue Broadcasting

Nature of business: Corporate communications

Share price: 4.25p

Market cap: 10m

Market: Aim

Acquisition-hungry Virtue Broadcasting has recently undertaken a raft of corporate deals. Specialising in the provision of online corporate communications to large blue-chip companies, the group announced its third acquisition in eight months at the turn of the year and it's unlikely to stop there.

Acquisitions to date include BigStream, Unit.Net and, most recently, Sweden-based Kamara. As well as cost savings that have trimmed the headcount by 40 per cent to around 50 staff, these deals have brought contracts with ABN Amro, Credit Suisse, Nokia, AstraZeneca and the Stockholm Stock Exchange.

More recently, contract wins with PC World, BP and large Spanish banking groups including Santander Central Hispano, BBVA and Banco Popular have further expanded its client base. A recent compromise agreement with the liquidators of Tornado Entertainment, its former subsidiary, has resulted in an exceptional income of 100,000 that should boost results for the year ending 31 December 2003. Interim results confirmed sales ahead by 133 per cent to 600,000 and reduced losses of 700,000 (down from 4.2m). House broker Brewin Dolphin expects a swing to profits this year.

An extraordinary meeting to seek shareholder approval for the further issue of equity, plus recent director share-buying, indicates there's more to come from Virtue. And its rapid emergence as the largest player in a fragmented European corporate communications market could make Virtue a takeover target for a media giant.

Trading Overview

The Board of Virtue Broadcasting Plc, Europe's leading online corporate
communications Group, today is proud to announce that consistent with its
consolidation strategy, the first quarter of 2004 has been a record quarter both
in terms of the value of new orders received and the number of webcasts hosted.

In particular, the Board is pleased that, in addition to revenues contributed
from the recent acquisitions of Unit.Net and Kamera Holdings in the first
quarter, the enlarged Group has won business from over 40 new clients, including
Pernod Ricard, Carl Zeiss, Repsol, Alliance & Leicester and Ramco Systems, both
through direct and reseller channels.

Further, the Board confirms that it expects to release its Final Results for the
Year Ended 31 December 2003 on 24 May 2004. As previously stated the Board
expects these results to be in line with expectations.

Looking good ! Good time to top up.. Will continue to rise up to the results (IMHO) :)

has come back a bit with a bit of profit taking...this share is still so cheap...and it hasnt brought out any bad news at all

That trading statement was extremely positive - obviously a very good first quarter and lots of new clients. My impression is that Webcasting is really beginning to gather momentum.

The newsflow with the upcoming EGM and then the final results will help the share price.
