whhhooooooooossshhhhhh!

Yuff, perhaps you could spell out the significance to Tadpole?

It looks very much like an irrelevant cut and paste to me.

I'd be interested to know the significance - genuine request Yuff!

Dick Dasterdly, are you still about, still holding? Not such a great result for Palace yesterday, mind you I never liked West London!

As ESRI are re-sellers of Cartesia's software it opens the door to many more customers.

Thanks Yuff I see the connection now.
This Board seems to have gone as dead as the share price!
I can understand the uncertainty until the EGM and details of the takeover are finalised, but I think that the drop in price is overdone and probably due to the weakness of the overall markets too.
Now shall I buy some more!

I see Tad have Eight vacancies to fill, 4 Cartesia and 4 ETI.
Looks like business is booming.

Moneylender,
I'm fairly new to all of this, can you explain your last post.

ML - either that or existing staff are leaving in droves and cannot be replaced quickly enough. Hope you are still getting up bright and early for the rest of us. Cheers.

With all the recent contracts it is more likely to be ML's scenario.

do any1 have any idea when the whole software sector is gonna come out of this depression, apart from some small gains which have since disapeared id say the software sector is still in the the downtrend started at the turn of the millenium, i strongly believe when we come out of this you will see some big gains but do any1 know WHEN

I am still hoping that someone can find out what Tad sent out last week to institutions re an explanation for its recent "merger" deal.

pach,

I don't think TAD have sent details of the reverse takeover/merger (call it wat you want) to anybody yet

regards

Snappy - no, I meant that there were a no. of people who had heard that Tad would be "justifying" the takeover/merger via a note sent to brokers/institutions etc. I was just wondering whether this note had materialised.

Do you mean in addition to the circular that is currently being prepared ?

abp01 - It depends upon what you mean by "circular". If that refers to the information that all shareholders will be receiving then the answer to your question is yes, if not then the answer is no. Moreover, I believe that Tad management was acting quickly (an oxymoron?) to halt the price decline by issuing the futher justification/info last Tuesday. Perhaps they delayed and the circular you mention is the same thing that I had heard of. Apologies if I have inadvertently confused anybody.

As far as i know there has not beeen any private note or presentation to any
institutions or individuals.
We are all waiting for the details of the aquisition of Stream Tech, this will be forthcoming. I understand that the delay is due to a UK listed Co, aquiring a US Co.
We will soon see the light.

Hi ML
I heard the same reason for the delay but correct me if I am wrong we didn't have the same problem acquiring ETI!
OK we paid cash for ETI I believe but that should not make any difference to the details of the deal being released, over 4 weeks is total incompetence imo.

Hi Yuff

My memory fails me on the purchase of ETI, but i dont think there was any pre announcement, it was just released that we had bought ETI.

I do agree that this delay in giving the details is hurting.

M

You could be right ML I'll have a look.

edit You are right ML on the 13/03/2000 they announced the acquisition as it was a cash consideration all the other formalities were already agreed this time they need an AGM. In the RNS for ETI it states they had been in negotions since late 99.
