INTERIM RESULTS

QuikTrak Networks PLC
20 September 2004

QuikTrak Networks Plc

Interim Results

For the six month period ended 30 June 2004

The first six months of this financial year have presented the Company with some
major challenges.

Following the commercialisation of the M25 Network in late 2003, the Company
found that the market demand for a network limited to within the M25 was
incompatible with the operating costs being incurred, in particular the level of
spectrum fees being paid, which were for a national UK telecommunications
licence. Given the intense competition in the sector and the variety of
technologies on offer, it is now clear that a fundamental component of a
successful business plan is the ability to offer UK national coverage. The
establishment of such a network for QuikTrak would require a significant amount
of capital and we have to date not been successful in securing these funds,
despite sustained efforts.

Following a review of the costs incurred in operating the M25 Network, the Board
resolved it was not in shareholders' interests to continue to do so. As a
result, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, QuikTrak Telecommunications (UK)
Ltd (QTT), was placed into administration on 23 August 2004. The ability of
QuikTrak Networks plc to pursue its broader objectives is not impacted by this
decision.

During the six month period, the Company generated revenue of 157,002 (2003 :
26,025). The loss for the period was 2,589,940, which includes writing off
the value of the net assets in QTT to nil (2003 : loss of 1,471,848).
Included in the consolidated balance sheet at 30 June 2004 are assets of QTT
amounting to 1,142,642, offset by liabilities of QTT of the same amount.

The Company has refocused its operations in order to enable it to exploit the
Intellectual Property Rights of the technology and its unique software in
Europe, the Middle East and the countries of the former USSR through network
sales and licensing arrangements. In order to be able to demonstrate the
technology, the Company has negotiated the right to use a QuikTrak network
currently operating in Australia, at a substantially lower cost than the
operating costs of the M25 network.

In July 2004, the Company raised new equity of 800,202 (net of costs) to
finance this revised strategy.

Progress continues to be made in selling a licence agreement to a prospective
operator in the United Arab Emirates. This is the first example of QuikTrak
utilising the Intellectual Property ownership of its system and is intended to
act as a blueprint for all future licensing deals in Europe, the Middle East and
the countries of the former USSR. Licensing deals are expected to provide a
revenue stream through consultancy fees for preliminary investigations,
technical planning, acquisition of base-stations and software, as well as
through monthly technology, licence and technical support fees per base-station
and transponder deployed.

QuikTrak's secure, accurate and reliable tracking technology has been well
received by the market for a wide range of applications and I remain confident
that with our new approach based on licensing and partnerships we have a solid
base for re-building shareholder value.

Dell. If someone is not listening to u what does that tell u? most of us here are taking a high risk and it is our choice, it is up to the individual to make their choices, you've made yours and we've made ours. I trust Sue's judegement. so far most of her picks have been very good. I feel this is a good one too. Thanks

SueHelen - 12 Jul 2004 16:02 - 96 of 702

Hi dell, my trades checking is not wrong. I spotted myself the size of the trades that are delayed by 1 hour, in this case 10,000 shares and the ones that are delayed by 2 hours, sometimes trades including 200,000 shares and over. You can't just make an assumption that this is a buy or sell without following the picture over a few sessions. This is the same when you tried to create panic by re-iterating that the price had fallen 27% in one day when the real thing that happened which I mentioned was that the spread had corrected itself and the actual fall was 10% on the day.

SueHelen - 12 Jul 2004 16:08 - 97 of 702

Large buy reported : 250,000 T BUY at 1.90 pence. T = single protected transaction. Someone had an order to purchase 250,000 shares during the course of the day.

dell314 - 12 Jul 2004 16:36 - 98 of 702

Sue - have you just seen the 25k T trade at 1.75p go through??

Unless there is a larger delayed T sell to come, it would appear that that miniscule sale made WINS drop off the bid at 11:39.

Remember my comment about a sucker's rally, this morning??

SueHelen - 12 Jul 2004 16:50 - 99 of 702

You're just going round in circles now to find anything with which you can to deramp this stock. Any views on the 250,000 T buy at 1.90 pence. That is a large buy for a small caps stock like QTR.

xmortal - 12 Jul 2004 16:56 - 100 of 702

momentum is builidng up, positive momentum line is just about to cross 0 (Zero) , we should see it going up. Also RSI and MACD are heading north too. So far so good. What is the buys v sells today?

SueHelen - 12 Jul 2004 16:58 - 101 of 702

BUYS = 2,623,891
SELLS = 175,000.

Fundraising overhang is getting reduced by the day.

SueHelen - 12 Jul 2004 17:02 - 102 of 702

56 Million shares issued for the fundraising :

Directors & Chairman's purchases totalled roughly 13 million shares
City Equities sold 31 million shares to their clients, if they had any left they would have come to the market already
Overhang of 12 million shares came to the market last Thursday.

Since then about 3.3 million in buys and 230,000 in sells.

City Equities clients may also start buying at these prices to average down from their purchases at 2.50 pence.

SueHelen - 12 Jul 2004 17:43 - 103 of 702

Update released today on QuikTrak's (QTR) website :

In line with the company's new strategy, we are now able to substantially reduce overheads. Consequently, QuikTrak have moved to smaller offices within the Richmond area. The future of the QuikTrak technology remains secure and we continue to explore all commercial opportunities within Europe, countries of the former USSR and the Middle East.

Some quotes from their website :

In the UK, 24 million registered cars provide enormous potential for QuikTraks car systems

In Europe the market for Fleet Systems is expected to increase by 80% 100% per annum

In most markets, current penetration of vehicle tracking, monitoring and communications systems is less than 5 per cent. Most forecasters believe this will reach at least 25 percent within five years

In the USA, nearly million low risk offenders could live and work in the community with QuikTraks Limited Freedom personal tracking and monitoring system, saving the taxpayer billions of dollars

dell

Keep posting so that we get a balanced view on this thread. This is looking more and more like a ramp as time goes by.

As per my previous post here (23), please be careful and set your stops with this one people.

SueHelen - 12 Jul 2004 23:07 - 107 of 702

On the contrary hence I did not answer Tokyo's posts from this morning, apologies Tokyo where he asked me to post my price target on these, I know it would just got you excited markp, you made your stance very clear when the thread was started. Dell is just going round in circles and trying to use different permutations. He made himself look so baffling today.

In retrospect dell did not even know the chairman was buying millions of shares and now when he has its still not good enough for him and he's on a another permuation now.

It's a shame that the likes of you do not start threads and tell us what to buy, please tell me what's rosy out there.

One step at a time, from these prices these can rise ten fold if their new business model turns into a success. This one is not for you markp.




snakey - 12 Jul 2004 23:15 - 108 of 702

xmortal,
I wholeheartedly agree with you`re comment to dell, who hasn`t responded to your question of whether he holds this stock or not and I support faith in suehelen`s opinion of this company`s future potential.I`m staying in and `deramping dell` can opine until the cow`s come home or the chicken`s arrive home to roost or any other similar `well known phrase or saying`.

Tokyo - 13 Jul 2004 06:01 - 109 of 702

108 posts in just two weeks, there is atleast alot of interest in this stock, time will tell if their new business plan is a success and if we all need to send Suehelen a big thank you for flagging this one

Dil - 13 Jul 2004 07:12 - 110 of 702

Sue , how much are the directors paying themselves ?

Cheers

SueHelen - 13 Jul 2004 10:09 - 111 of 702

Further to my post yesterday with regards to the overhang clearing, the offer price has ticked up today to 2.50 pence.

SueHelen - 13 Jul 2004 10:10 - 112 of 702

Hi Dil, I don't know, I'm not sure if the information is in the public domain.

Dil - 13 Jul 2004 10:55 - 113 of 702

It will be in the annual report , don't you have a copy ?

SueHelen - 13 Jul 2004 10:58 - 114 of 702

3 Million delayed buy reported at 1.75 pence. Trades over 200,000 shares are delayed in reporting by 2 hours. That is a definite buy thereafter fifteeen minutes later the offer price ticked up. That must be the reason why the bid price dropped back to 1.5 pence yesterday as the buy order had to be filled at 1.75 pence. We had the 2 million buy yesterday as well at 1.75 pence. The chairman and directors did snap up the shares in the fundraising and it wouldn't surprise me if the chairman and directors are responsible for the two large buys.
