The way I read into it is that Asda wants it all to themselves?
I am not sure about the placement. What affect will this have on the sp?
Sorry for sounding thick to!

Total shares prior to placement about 843million. Dilution is minimal, but the have working capital or cash enough to survive. Also K Peel have been over the books with a spy glass and microscope and think it is worth at least 12.8p a share which is a cushion to land on!!!

Eric, like you can't believe people a dipping out before the sahre price hits 20p. It's difficult to me to give too mauch onformation because I work in the packaging industry, but this is causing major waves. Hold tight and we can all make a killing. Bought some more this afternoon, now have a range from 4p to 15p.

Minimal dilution but placing 38m shares must have been holding the SP back slightly so I guess now it could fly again!

so jacks you don't think the placing will dilute existing shares, price moving up on the release of RNS, i'm confused...

Fred1new,

dexter,
I told you I was thick!! I blame it on a typing error.
I wonder what is going on with the other trials?

My opinion (for what it's worth) is this is a good RNS. The placing took place at above yesterdays closing price, which shows confidence in the company and also, if asda take up the rights to use it exclusivly, I think they would have to pay extra for that otherwise seo would be better selling it to all and sundry.

There's the second RNS, option for 60 days.

Yes don't forget asda are owned by WalMart so it wont be exclusivity to just Asda it would include the parent company (I think). Maybe thats why Asda wont the agreement because of parent company, if it is the case then this is huge because it opens up the whole WalMart market...

Adie, 38 million shares in normal circumstances would have a drastic affect, however these are not normal circustances. We have a company who have gained a major competitive advantage over the rest of the packaging market. I know I keep banging on about it but this is potentially huge. The extra shares at above yesterdays price only demonstrates confidence as the price looks to be pushing on again.
Tesco and Sainsbury will get the technology through contract packers, believe me they will not let ASDA steal their thunder.

wilbs,
The way i read it is, Asda want to be the first chain to use this technology, remember they are huge, i think the trials will still continue with the other companies. If one co. can be the first to use it,it gives them a boost and any little bit of an advantage can mean a lot in this field IMO

Couldn't wait any longer. I had to get in (14.94). I may have got the timimg wrong in the short term but everything I read suggests there is lots of room for growth long term.

adieH....yes, the option is just for the UK and Ireland, if Walmart want to use it the US that would really set this share alight.

I read on the other side that wal-mart do not sell food. Does anyone know if this is true? I have looked on their web site and there seems to be everything else there except food.
