Hello yoo! is there anybody out there???????

Poverty - 01 Apr 2005 12:26 - 939 of 3776

YOO are being toooooo quiet on the news front - this is why little action on the sp front. However - no news is NOT good news imho. It is very frustrating! Surely this is the bottom !!!!??????

016622 - 01 Apr 2005 12:36 - 940 of 3776

the bottom keeps getting deeeeper!....

chad - 01 Apr 2005 12:38 - 941 of 3776

iPublic, any idea about results, like Dy says I thought we were due something.

iPublic - 01 Apr 2005 13:16 - 942 of 3776

Market cap now only 69m, what an outstanding opportunity for a long term growth investment.

Latest news from YOO HQ, is results by mid April or much sooner, may or may not announce the date.

Broker note on morning of results day.

From one of my fellow shareholders:

Yoo are holding back the results to see if they can announce cash flow positive for Q1 at the same time

If there was no chance ie. bad news we would have know the date by now

no news in this case is good news because of accounting adjustments

if they adopt new EU standards the good will write offs taken so far could be written back reducing loss by 0.5m. Treatment of tax and NI on director share options will also boost figures

these take time to produce hence delaying figures

016622 - 01 Apr 2005 13:32 - 943 of 3776

EVO want to drag this lower today

proptrade - 01 Apr 2005 14:24 - 944 of 3776

something definately afoot...

016622 - 01 Apr 2005 15:17 - 945 of 3776

lets not try n make any sense of todays price movements huh?
All I know is its nice to see some blue!
might even buy some more.....before I have to go back for more medication!!

mactavish - 01 Apr 2005 15:36 - 946 of 3776

Dont seem to want people to buy raising offer to 17.5p. Something afoot alright.

016622 - 01 Apr 2005 15:45 - 947 of 3776

yes, but you can buy as low as 16.7...

chad - 01 Apr 2005 19:07 - 948 of 3776

Cheers iPublic.

chad - 01 Apr 2005 19:07 - 949 of 3776

Cheers iPublic.

EWRobson - 01 Apr 2005 21:06 - 950 of 3776

016622: why the comment that evo want it to go lower. So that they can be knights riding to the rescue on prelims day? Reason for day well into April is so that quarterly figures can be quoted alongside last year which won't be that meaningful. Good top up opportunity but no free cash - and so say all of us! Hopefully we will be adding shortly: for they are jolly good fellows...!

Haven't made a contribution here but I am in and am looking for some good long term growth. This has the look of a very solid company with tremendous potential. Yes it is early days but thats thats the time to get in.
Good look to all holders.

Some interesting reading on Channel 4 Teletext page 508..........

TIME TO GAMBLE ON BETTING FIRMS?

Analysts at Merrill Lynch are downbeat on bookmakers prospects. William Hills
telephone betting arm is coming under competitive pressures from exchanges
such as Betfair, says ML.
"Fixed Odds Betting Terminals" are suffering from the effects of the code of
conduct and could be subject to a higher tax regime in the future.
A smoking ban in 2007 could also put off customers going into betting shops.

Why visit the bookies when you can smoke, drink and gamble from your armchair imo....lol.

mactavish - 02 Apr 2005 18:32 - 953 of 3776

TIME TO GAMBLE ON BETTING FIRMS?

Interactive is the fastest growing of William Hills divisions with 292,000
customers at the end of 2004, compared with 247,000 a year earlier.

Over 60,000 people play Ladbrookes online poker games.
Pokermillion will pay a $1m prize this year.

William Hill has launched its own TV Station on Sky Channel 425, so customers
can bet while watching TV, and a range of products for 3G mobile phones.

TIME TO GAMBLE ON BETTING FIRMS?

Gamcare, a charity that works with problem gamblers, said the average debt of
clients rose 9% to 20,642 in 2003.

Fixed odds betting terminals caused considerable problems for 14% of its clients
having been "nowhere" in 2002.

It added that 5% of clients now said the internet was their main means of
gambling, but betting using INTERACTIVE TELEVISION featured for the first time,
the charity said.

Looks like its building up nicely...imo..

cavman - 03 Apr 2005 17:49 - 955 of 3776

hi,

usually this share drops like a stone when there are sells...friday was the most sells i have ever seen (have only been watching about 2 months) and the price rises?

i dont get it. does anyone?

iPublic - 03 Apr 2005 19:36 - 956 of 3776

April will be an extremely interesting month.

My position, 550k long.

016622 - 03 Apr 2005 22:53 - 957 of 3776

cavman, most "sells" were actually buys if you study the mid price / price / time movements. Also "big" buys are offered "discount" prices.

Eric, EVO move this share price around like i've never seen before! (well...not every day) they lower their bid to 3p below highest offer and then take their offer to the top of the tree.
Can't blame them for doing this, you would have to keep interest in this share if you owned that many!

Steve.
