this share has done extremely well this year - with results coming in a month or so, this is a buy!

i agree, profits now expected to exceed 2 million which is 30% over recent forecasts.

looking good

DAN tipped in Investors Chronicle as a buy.

Placing in April and director sells haven't helped the cause though Hutchins. Don't they want the SP to go up.

Holding but a tad disappointed

capa

agreed.

Less disappointed now ! Nice rise over the last week or so.

capa

Still on the move :-)

capa

Looks like just me here on this one enjoying the re-rating :-)

capa

Does anyone recognise IDN Telecom, I am looking for some news about this company.
Also Medoil, which I also have invested in but very much short of news
Its also gone very quiert on Sportech, has anyone of you excellent researchers got any news onthe above companies.

Good trading statement made at the AGM yesterday.

Hopefully there will be a steady run up to results in November

capa

Hi Capa

Which of my shares are you talking about ??
Sportech, IDN, or Medoil.
It is not very clear sometimes whether everyone is singing the same hymn sheet ???on the same board.

Great trading statement today, plenty of upside here imo.

capa

Worth taking out a interest in this stock before results.

They are going to easily beat their profit forcasts and they are
on a very low forward PER.

Not many companies out there on AIM that are doing very well
but this is one, only reason the shareprice is so low is some insitutions
that bought in below 5p are taking big profits so there's lines of stock
to be cleared first.

Not sure when results are out, thought they would be today.

One poster seems to think they will be out on the 5th Novemember,
nice to be in a share that you know WILL issue great results, looking
for 17p on that very day for minimum share price.

Cant see them releasing on the 5th mackem, by my calendar thats a Saturday.
Should be any day now as they were released on the 28th October last year, and we know that they have got nothing to hide.

all the best

capa

Bit more interest today, must be pre results buying.

capa

Steady buying again and the chart looks ready for another run upwards. Update due out in the next few weeks following the "record breaking year for the company".

Daniel Stewart Securities PLC said 2005 was a
"record-breaking" period for the company, with the company raising 140 mln stg
for its clients compared to 50 mln in 2004.
The broker grew its client base by over 40 pct during the period from 27 AIM
companies at the start of the year to 39 by the end of December.
During the period Daniel Stewart advised on over 970 mln stg of deals by
value during 2005 and acted on 28 transactions on AIM as it took advantage of
buoyant market conditions.
Daniel Stewart benefited from a burgeoning AIM market last year with growing
investor confidence underpinning increasing deal flow.
The positive momentum looks set to continue with this year starting very
well, the company said.
Chief executive Peter Shea said: "We achieved quarter-on-quarter growth
throughout the year and the first few weeks of 2006 have proved to be equally
busy."

Stonking chart this.

Nice little tick up this morning following more steady buying.

Generally a pretty dull day for the markets, so good to see some nice buys going through. DAN are adding to the client base and with the upsurge in the AIM market this has to be a long term winner,imop.dyor. - and it's worth researching btw!

It's worth reiterating that DAN completed 28 transactions in 2005, raising 140million for clients - which was up from 50million in 2004.

Positive Candidate analysis from investtech.com

Positive Candidate (Medium term)
An approximate horizontal trend is broken up. A continued strong development is indicated, and the the stock now meets support on possible reactions down towards the trend lines. The stock has support at p 17.40. Volume tops correspond well with price tops, and volume bottoms correspond well with price bottoms. Volume balance is also positive, which strengthens the trend break. RSI is overbought. The stock can still rise further, and we should see a decreasing RSI before this is used as a negative signal. The stock is overall assessed as technically positive for the medium long term.

Chart looks ready for the next breakout, a little more volume should do it.

Interesting the games that go on with the live streaming prices on shares. DAN ticked up again just before the close, but the buy which caused the tick up, 100k at 20.65, was in the sell column about half-an-hour later. Clearly a buy.

There's an interesting article in the Daily Mail today by Adam Hart, head of business development at KBC Peel Hunt and chairman of the LSE's AIM advisory group, in which he indicates that the boom in the AIM market is expected to continue. Good news for DAN.

Fortuna Gaming Corp.,
(OTC Bulletin Board: FGAM), ( the "Company") is pleased to announce that it
has engaged Daniel Stewart and Company plc ("Daniel Stewart") to provide
financial and advisory services in connection with the Company's proposed
acquisition of the G-FED Games Group of Companies ("G-FED") as announced on
December 6, 2005. G-FED, (http://www.g-fedgames.com) is a developer and licensor of
world class online gaming software and related services.

Another nice fee for Daniel Stewart.

JELF GROUP plc

Acquisition and Share Placing

ACQUISITION OF GOSS GROUP LIMITED

PROPOSED PLACING OF 6.9m NEW ORDINARY SHARES AT 106p per share RAISING GBP7.3m

Jelf Group plc ("the Company") is delighted to announce the acquisition ("the
Acquisition") of Goss Group Ltd ("Goss") for an initial consideration of GBP6.254
million. Goss was established in 1921 in Reading and over the years has
developed a significant insurance brokerage business and has added a financial
services division to complement this business.

It employs around 170 staff in five locations. The majority of staff are located
in Reading and Guildford with smaller offices existing in Cheltenham, Newton
Abbot and Taunton. Premium income has steadily increased to circa GBP46.2m in 2005
which has been achieved in part by four acquisitions in the past six years.

In addition the Company announces it is simultaneously raising GBP7,319,287 from
institutional and other investors via a placing of 6,904,988 New Ordinary Shares
at 106p per share ("The Placing Price"). The Company has also placed 467,000
Existing Ordinary Shares with institutional and other investors at The Placing
Price.

A shareholders' circular will be posted today and includes a Notice of an Annual
General Meeting ("AGM") of the Company which is to be held on 21 March 2006.

Highlights

The combination of Goss and Jelf Group ("the Enlarged Group") will make
the Enlarged Group a leading force in the commercial insurance, corporate
healthcare and employee benefits markets in the south of England and Wales

The combined corporate healthcare premiums will increase to GBP50m
consolidating its position in the top 5 in this sector (based on volumes of
business on risk with BUPA, excluding Nationals)

The combined commercial insurance book of business will now generate over
GBP75m in annual premiums which would have placed the Enlarged Group in the
top 10 of Insurance Age's 'Top 100 Independent Broker Survey 2005'

The combined financial services operation will now have annual turnover
in excess of GBP10m establishing the Enlarged Group in the top 40 in this
sector (Source: Based on published results in the Financial Adviser Regional
Adviser Survey, Nov 2005)

The proposed Placing of New Ordinary Shares will assist in the financing
of the Acquisition, the repayment of Goss's current indebtedness and provide
working capital for the Enlarged Group


Alex Alway, Group Chief Executive, Jelf Group plc, said

"The strategic rationale for this consolidating acquisition is compelling. This
acquisition not only enjoys an excellent strategic fit in respect of both
geography and people, but also offers opportunities for enhanced margins as a
direct result of the Enlarged Group's increased buying power, identified cost
savings and multiple cross-selling opportunities".

AIM offers Americans escape from New York
By Martin Waller



HUNDREDS of American companies are hoping to join the Alternative Investment Market in London to avoid the heavier regulatory environment in New York, according to a City lawyer.
Delphine Currie, a partner at SJ Berwin, which is actively courting small, fast-growth American firms, says that her partnership has spoken to 40 or 50 companies interested in escaping Sarbanes-Oxley by coming to AIM. If weve talked to 40 or 50, there are bound to be others, up to ten times as many, she said.



Market-watchers say that a company with a turnover of only $50 million (28 million) a year could face fees of $3 million a year to satisfy the more onerous regulatory requirements on the New York market.

Ms Currie said: Its OK for one of the major US companies to spend these sorts of sums on compliance. Its crippling for a smaller company.

There are now 29 companies quoted on AIM that are either United States-based or have a holding company domiciled in Britain but most of their operations there, according to the London Stock Exchange, which runs the less regulated market. The increasing burden of regulation in the US is one factor persuading American companies to float in London.

A London source with experience in both markets said: An American broker recently told me: You guys should erect a statue to Sarbanes-Oxley outside the London Stock Exchange Sarbox has been the best thing since sliced bread for you.

AIM, created a decade ago, has been an undoubted success for London, attracting IPOs from all around the world. Ms Currie said that her company recently had been pitching for business in Waltham, the high-tech business cluster outside Boston, and shortly would be in Silicon Valley, California.

There is concern over the effect on AIM and the London market generally if one of the two New York exchanges mounts a successful takeover for the LSE. Nasdaq, which has had a 2.4 billion offer rejected and has approached key LSE shareholders to try to put together a deal, has insisted that the market will be able to continue as it is. The New York Stock Exchange has not commented on whether it will bid.

Regulators in London and New York have not specifically taken a view on the future of AIM. Ms Currie said: I cant see AIM sitting particularly well with the NYSE. But I cant see them killing the golden goose.

Separately, the authorities at AIM appear to be confident that they can fight off any threat to the tax breaks on offer to investors in AIM companies. There have been suggestions that the Budget on Wednesday could limit or even scrap these, because of the arrival on the market of much larger firms, such as New Star Asset Management, which floated last year.

The tax advantages are intended to encourage investment in small, high-growth businesses, not established companies such as New Star, which in the event lacks a sufficiently long trading record to go for a full listing.

It is thought that the Treasury is content to leave the LSE to find an equitable solution to the problem, for example by requiring larger companies to move on to the main list when possible, rather than imposing diktats from outside.

We welcome the support the Treasury has given AIM in terms of the favourable financing environment and would expect that to continue, an LSE spokesman said.

Moving on up again

capa

Buyers piling back in obviously thinking news is imminent.

Creeping up after the positive trading statement last week. Time to get in before this runs away?

Quiet one this???? results out soon, quite a way off highs. Only a PE of 12 and results expected to exceed expectations. Certainly one to watch. price 22.75p

im still the only one watching???

I'll be a buyer next week. The shares look at the discount at this price. In their last trading update at the end of March they expected to smash through 4.6 mil pre-tax. With the results out on 31st I can see this going one way only. Also just bouncing off from bottom line uptrend.

hi britshare, hope your right, present market conditions not helping, but i think your spot on.

As of this morning I'm a holder. Don't think we'll see these prices again. If only the wankers in the Middle East would stop fighting now...

agree, but how much pressure are the US putting on Isrealis not escalate the violence????

The price has been all over the shop today. I'm debating about adding a few more, but not sure.
Any thoughts where we might be by the end of this week?

Well, I've added more today, I think we'll start climbing back up towards the results.
Looking at their website, since the end of the last financial year, they have had quite a few major flotations and placings completed for their clients, so it doesn't look like business is slowing down. I look forward to the results and outlook for the rest of the year.

Very happy with this set of results :)

Chairman's Letter to Shareholders


Dear Shareholder


I am pleased to present our report and accounts for the year to 31 March 2006.

The year offered benign trading conditions throughout, enabling us to continue
to advance and develop all of our product lines and business units. Our focus
has remained in the small cap arena where, as a result of a number of excellent
transactions, we have enjoyed an enhanced reputation.

Daniel Stewart & Co

During the year we successfully completed Nine Initial Public Offerings (IPOs)
and 29 Secondary offerings, all but one being on AIM, raising in excess of 160
million in primary and secondary issues.

Transactions of particular note included acting for World Gaming Plc in its $90
million acquisition of Sportsbetting where, in addition to arranging the equity
we also arranged 25 million in bank debt. We completed a range of transactions
within our corporate finance department - including the sale of XN Checkout to
Torex Retail for 80 million, and we now act as Nomad for 29 companies.

Our research department is now well established and has received much favourable
comment including being short-listed for Best Research of the year at the AIM
Awards dinner.

Daniel Stewart Capital

The Company added two new clients providing 150,000 in loan facilities. The
total value of loans written now exceeds 1.25million with a yield substantially
above average.

Daniel Stewart Leasing

The leasing business commenced trading in September 2005. It concentrates on
providing leasing services in the form of finance/operating leases to the
printing industry. During the year, we wrote leases for a total value of
2.6million with 19 customers. Our average yield was considerably above industry
standards with an average tenor of 3.2 years.

Summary

Yet again the Company has had a very successful year, doubling turnover and
profitability. Our balance sheet as a result of this performance is strong and
cash flows have continued to be positive. Our order book at year-end reflects
the demand for our services with an ever-widening geographic range of clients
served. As always, our ability to deliver is reliant upon the performance of our
people - all of whom have provided quality execution over the last twelve
months. We continue to recruit individuals of the highest calibre and will
always welcome dedicated staff that assist us in the maintenance of our
commitment to excellence.

Finally the Board would like to thank shareholders for their continued
confidence and support and hope that they will enjoy the benefits of our
continued growth.



Peter Dicks
Chairman





Chief Executive's Year in Review


Equity Capital Markets.

At year-end 2006 our retained AIM and other public market client base consisted
of 37 companies. We completed 38 transactions (2005: 25) and acted on the
admission of over 160 million (2005: 60 million) in new capital on both
primary and secondary issues on total transaction values of 860 million (2005:
434 million).


Corporate Finance.

Our corporate finance team has been very active during the year, assisting in
the successful completion of our IPO's on AIM, where we acted as Nomad for 9 new
clients and completing a wide range of transactions including the sale of XN
Checkout to Torex Retail for 80 million.


Equity Research

Our research department has improved in both terms of breadth and quality of
coverage. As a result we are now distributing to almost all UK institutional
managers and to a wide range of international investment managers.


Trading and Investment

This department has traded profitably throughout the year. Our Agency business
has grown steadily, with a corresponding increase in clients that now number in
excess of 100 (8: 2005). Our proprietary trading book provided excellent returns
for the period and we will continue to develop both our Agency and Proprietary
business.


Specialist Debt Services

We established Daniel Stewart Leasing during the year to add to our already
existing operations in Daniel Stewart Capital. We have successfully deployed
excess capital into these markets - to provide improved returns and improved
quality of earnings, ensuring further differentiation from our competition.

Employees

The firm currently employs 36 members of staff, compared to 25 at the end of
2005. We enjoy a high level of dedication and commitment from all employees and
each has made a substantial contribution to the very successful year.


Premises

We moved into our new offices approximately ten months ago. The change of
accommodation has proven to be very successful and has helped us to provide a
fully integrated service to our clients.


Outlook

Having completed the first quarter of this financial year, I am pleased to
advise that all divisions are performing satisfactorily and that we are well
positioned for the year ahead. We enjoy a solid order book and are seeing a
steady improvement in both quality and size of transactions offered to us.


Peter Shea

Group Chief Executive



Management Discussion


Business Environment

Equity markets throughout the year remained firm, with AIM continuing to
flourish. It has attracted companies from all over the World and is now the
small cap growth market of choice. Economies worldwide have been buoyant and, as
such, demand for banking and broking services has grown unabated.


Results of Operations

Revenue for the twelve months was 12,232,725 up from 6,027,842 for the
previous year - an increase of 100 %. At the gross profit level we improved our
performance by 100%, returning 11,326,826 versus 5,649,663 for 2005. At the
operating level we returned a profit of 4,949,255 or 40.4% versus revenues, up
from 2,054,913 or 34.1% versus revenue for 2005. Staffing levels rose from 25
to 36, and as such our administrative expenses rose in real terms from
3,594,750 in 2005 to 6,377,571, however, when measured against revenue this
represented a slight improvement down from 59% in 2005 to 57%. After taking into
account interest, depreciation and amortisation our profit before tax was
5,075,012 or 41.5% against revenues, up from 2,004,947 or 33.3% in 2005.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Assets rose from 8,539,955 in 2005 to 12,997,557 with our working capital
position improving from 6,429,081 in 2005 to 11,282,153. While this
improvement can be attributed to a number of factors, of particular significance
was the growth in our loan and leasing portfolios and our increased cash
position - up to 4,201,880. Operating cash flow remained strong and almost
unchanged at 1,857,298 despite an increased investment in our trading assets.
Our Return on Capital Employed was 26.2% (25.1% in 2005) and our Return on
Equity was 29.0%, up from 22.0 % in 2005.


The preliminary results for the year ended 31 March 2006 were approved by
the Board on 19 July 2006 and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2006 will be
sent to shareholders in due course.

I seem to be talking to myself here, any holders out there?
We're on the move again :)

IC has reiterated a BUY reccomendation for DAN this week.
Here is a copy of the article:


"Full year results from Daniel Stewart demonstrated how well small cap stockbrokers have done from the rapid growth of Aim. Turnover doubled to 12.2m, while pre-tax profits rose 150 per cent to 5.1m. A busy year for new and secondary issues was mostly to thank, but the company also doubled the size of its loan book.

The key question, though, is whether the current year can match or even better that performance. New issues on Aim have slowed in recent months after a frantic start to 2006, and the fall in the stock market since May has knocked confidence. Nevertheless, chief executive Peter Shea is confident that this year will be another good one. There are still plenty of domestic companies controlled by venture capital firms which may seek a listing, and Aim is an increasingly popular destination for US companies. With that in mind, Daniel Stewart has sent one of its Nomads (nominated advisers) over there to work in partnership with investment bank Sanders Morris Harris.

Along with those of other stockbrokers, shares in Daniel Stewart fell during the recent market sell-off. At 20p, they're 17 per cent below our buy tip (24p, 13 April 2006), having reached 29p in April. They're trading on just under 10 times forecast earnings, which looks too low given the continuing popularity of Aim. Still a BUY."

In my opinion this share will double in next 12 months. Will be 30p by Oct.2007.

dropping DAN

long time since anyone's posted here but DAN is clearly on the move.
big buyers recently and results imminent.

Any one still interested in DAN? Some TA person said to me last night that there was a buy signal on this ..... can anyone confirm or is it a bit risky given the fall on the DOW last night? Thanks

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/main.jhtml?view=DETAILS&grid=&xml=/money/2008/03/17/cxmktrep117.xml

Shea rumoured to be looking at a MBO!
Any buyout would have to be at a higher price than it is currently!

4.75/4.85 up on the bid. Banking sector in general picking up but DAN been left behind.

Started to recover off it's low.

Papers reported this am that there was hope a bid was coming in.

better hurry up before this goes bust......not many customers to keep business going....and analysts are woeful....nothing more than glorified journo.

you up to mischief again scotty

From what I remember their analyst was spot on about silverjet

down again today.....on a rocketing day!
just a tiddly wee company now.

1 good call in a year is hardly time to celebrate.....and thats on talking down something.....can it actually tip a share to do well.....thought not!

SELL

Oh dear and I was just thinking you knew what you were talking about!

the problem with these threads there isn't any true debate about what is going on and what is likely to happen.

A large proportion of silly people coming out with useless statements based on their very limited knowledge.

Still, gives me a good laugh! lol lol lol

down again

joking aside, companies like daniel stewart will really suffer from end of last year until we definitely we are out of bear market and things improve......now no-one really knows as bounce was in end march 3003 i think from last bear market......so its usually at least 6 months before people in media tell the masses. and many people will be burnt and wont rust markets for even longer if ever as like last bear market.
so i dont think daniel stewart will have much business for about next 3 years

down again....little volume too....soon be 1p

now only 2p.........do they have any clients left.......poor advice from analysts too wont give any confidence.

Noticed the Director buying yesterday. Hopefully the rise here will continue especially if they confirm that they have maintained profitability.

Director continuing to buy at 250,000 every seven days so far. I hope he keeps doing so as these shares are tightly held.

Yes I took a punt on these @ 1.47p purely on directors buying.

Daniel Stewart Securities Plc
Trading and Business Update

The Board of Daniel Stewart Securities Plc (AIM: DAN), the investment bank providing corporate advisory, institutional stockbroking and wealth management services, announces a trading and business update ahead of its full year results for the year ended 31 March 2015.

The Board is pleased to announce that since 30 September 2014, the Company has addressed its regulatory capital requirements; strengthened its balance sheet; and restructured the operational focus of the Company, reducing costs in the process. The Company also took the strategic decision to relinquish its status as an AIM Nominated Adviser ("NOMAD") as the Board believes that the associated costs and additional regulatory burden associated with maintaining NOMAD status do not best serve the interests of our shareholders in today's market environment.

During the period, the Company's shares were suspended from trading between 30 September 2014 and 5 March 2015. The suspension created exceptional circumstances that affected trading in the second half of the reported year. Whilst resolving the capital adequacy issues which led to suspension, the Company also incurred certain non-recurring legal, accountancy and other costs associated with the restructuring. Some clients also delayed their decision to appoint us to new mandates.

As a result of this, the Board anticipates that for the year ended 31 March 2015, the Company will report a reduced pre-tax and amortisation loss of approximately £850,000 (2014: £1.46m loss), of which around £150,000 relates to costs incurred in resolving the regulatory capital issues. Revenue is expected to be around £3.9m (2014: £4.2m).

Peter Shea, Chairman commented: "Although it is always disappointing to report a loss, albeit an improved position from the previous year, we now have our regulatory capital issues firmly behind us and a more focused overhead resulting in a business which is better structured to deliver meaningful capital market solutions to our clients.

"Whilst general market trading conditions remain difficult, we have in the last seven weeks been appointed by six new clients and in the immediate months ahead, we are engaged on a number of fundraisings, including two initial public offerings. Additionally, our wealth management division has continued to grow.

"The Board is optimistic about the future prospects for the Company and I would like to thank the staff, our clients, investors, advisers, and Winterflood Securities, all of whom remained supportive throughout."

Quindell founder: Share-dealing allegations a 'heap of rubbish'

Rob Terry says he has amassed £50m in funding for new ventures and is confident of FCA approval

The founder of Quindell has claimed he will not face sanctions from regulators over his share-dealings at the firm and called accusations of insider dealing “a heap of rubbish”.

The revelations from Rob Terry, the controversial former chairman at the insurance outsourcer, are likely to spark anger among shareholders who lost money by investing in the company he once led.
Mr Terry, in his first public comments since he left Quindell, told The Telegraph that he had amassed about £50m of funding for new ventures, some of which he has provided himself.

He also said he was confident that he would receive approval from the regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority, for his planned stake-building in stockbroker Daniel Stewart, despite the storm that led to his departure from Quindell last November.

Mr Terry, along with two other directors, were the focus of investor anger when it emerged that they had reduced their shareholdings in Quindell in stock market dealings that were initially portrayed by the company as share purchases.

He was eventually ousted from the board when Quindell revealed that the trio had carried out the dealings after one of the company’s house brokers had resigned. The wider stock market was only informed of the resignation after the directors had reduced their stakes, prompting heavy falls in Quindell’s share price.

“The transactions that were done at the time were looked at, there was never any question of insider dealing, so it’s just a heap of rubbish,” Mr Terry said on Friday.
He said that there was “no issue” with the Aim team at the London Stock Exchange, which examined the controversial share dealings, and that it was “closed out long long ago, all in a positive manner.”
He added: “There’s never been an issue with the FCA.”

In a move that has raised eyebrows across the City, it emerged on Thursday that Mr Terry was seeking to increase his recently acquired stake in Daniel Stewart to above 10pc, which will require FCA clearance.

“I’m absolutely positive that FCA approval will come through in the normal timescales,” he said.
Daniel Stewart was left with an uncertain future on Friday after it revealed that its nominated adviser, Westhouse Securities, had resigned. If it does not find a replacement by the start of May, its shares will be suspended.
Mr Terry has already amassed a 9.994pc stake in the broker through investment vehicle Quob Park Estate.

The controversial figure said he thought that Daniel Stewart was “undervalued”, adding “there’s also some things I’d like to do in partnership with them to do with the other things I’m doing with Quob Park.
“Ultimately I will be interested in holding anything up to 29pc of [Daniel Stewart]. I won’t make a bid for it, that’s not my intent, but I could see myself building a holding of that type of size.

“We will open up [Quob Park] to retail investors to invest alongside us and for that we will need to work with an FCA regulated firm, and I hope that that firm will be Daniel Stewart.”

He claimed that Quob Park had as much as £50m in firepower behind it.
“Quob is re-name of a company that I’ve had for a whole number of years but it’s been restructured, new investment’s come in, myself and a number of other individuals have put in over five million and we’ve already raised money with a valuation of twenty-five million.

“It in itself is a fund of a value of about twenty-five million, and then it’s sitting alongside about another twenty-five million of investment capital from me. So it has available to it about fifty million of funding.”

On Friday, Quindell shareholders approved the £637m sale of the company’s legal business in a deal that will see £500m returned to investors. Mr Terry said that he and Quob held small stakes in Quindell.

After earlier mark down is now well up and some large trades appearing as buys volume of over 7m on 2 hours of trading, was slow at the start.

spread 1.30 v 1.35p +0.075p

the large trade delayed by 1 hour was a change of pattern this morning from being down to going up

BUY -09:31:47 800,000K @ 1.30p
spread at the time 1.25 v 1.30p

things has change since as now the spread is 1.40 v 1.45p

they must be a buy order as PEEL is alone at 1.40p on the bid and next is far away 1.25p

some have realised of that and selling getting 1.41p a few trades now

There was a large trade for 1.2M @ 1.44p, no wonder PEEL was bidding by them self well ahead of the others.

share price has come down ( PEEL has move lower on the bid side ) as sellers help them to fill their books,
I was expecting for this to be happen being so much difference in prices on them.
Naturally bidding for stock cos there was a large buyer and almost paying the full offer price 1.45p

Will Quindell PLC Shareholders Benefit From Founder Rob Terry’s New Venture In Daniel Stewart Securities PLC? --- By G A Chester - Tuesday, 5 May, 2015

Quindell (LSE: QPP) founder Rob Terry, who quit the company last November, has recently come back on to the radar of the investing community. And it could be good news or bad news for Quindell shareholders.

You may recall that Terry’s departure followed a precipitous fall in Quindell’s share price, amidst claims that his empire of “disruptive technology” was built on over-priced acquisitions and dirty accounting. There were also claims of insider dealing: Terry had been a seller of Quindell shares at a time when the company’s joint broker had resigned but the market had not been informed. Subsequently, Terry further sold down his shareholding, with many assuming he ultimately sold completely.

However, he’s back with an investment vehicle called Quob Park Estate, which describes itself as a “core shareholder” of Quindell. Quob Park Estate has also built a 9% stake in AIM microcap Daniel Stewart, the original advisor and broker to Quindell when Terry floated it on the stock market.

Quob Park Estate says it is “working with and investing in companies that are focused on the benefits of Digital Disruption”, and that “whilst remaining private equity focused, in the future we will open our doors to retail investors”. Terry recently told the Telegraph: “for that we will need to work with an FCA [Financial Conduct Authority] regulated firm, and I hope that that firm will be Daniel Stewart.”

It has also been announced that Terry intends to seek FCA approval to increase his interest in Daniel Stewart to above 10%. In the interview with the Telegraph, he said: “I’m absolutely positive that FCA approval will come through in the normal timescales”. If it does, Terry will, effectively, be cleared of the allegations of serious wrongdoing at Quindell (beyond the aggressive accounting the company has already held its hands up to) and the shares could rise. Conversely, a rejection by the FCA could hit the shares, as it might — unless explicitly stated that the rejection was solely on the grounds of insider dealing — imply a possible further can of worms at Quindell.

Quindell is set to complete the £637m sale of its large Professional Services Division to Australian firm Slater & Gordon, and anticipates returning up to £500m to shareholders. The sale will leave Quindell with a core of telematics-related businesses and a small ragbag of other businesses... more

Appointment of Nominated Adviser and Resumption of Trading on AIM

Daniel Stewart Securities plc (AIM: DAN), the investment bank providing corporate advisory, institutional stockbroking and wealth management services, is pleased to announce that Beaumont Cornish Limited ("BCL") has been appointed as the Company's Nominated Adviser with immediate effect. Accordingly, trading in the Company's Ordinary Shares on AIM is expected to recommence with effect from 7.30 a.m. on 11 May 2015.

Under the terms of BCL's appointment, the Company and BCL have agreed that BCL shall be entitled to resign as the Company's Nominated Adviser, at any time, should any party become a 10 per cent. Shareholder (or more) whether or not approved as a "Controller" by the FCA, without Beaumont's prior approval (to be given in Beaumont's absolute discretion).

As previously reported on 15 April 2015, trading conditions remain challenging and so the Company also announces that it feels it would be prudent to strengthen further its balance sheet and put in place additional funding either from existing or new investors or a combination of both in order to provide more certainty in what still remains an overall fragile capital market.

To this end the Company is therefore seeking to raise up to GBP1million and is in advanced discussions with its largest shareholder, Epsilon Investments PTE Limited, to lead the funding and expects to announce its conclusion shortly.

The Board continues to be encouraged by the level of new and existing businessopportunities; and new business wins have been sufficient to give the Company the confidence to add to the team with the appointment of three new members of the corporate broking team.

Finally, the Board is pleased to announce that it is in discussions with a number of proposed new non-executive directors with a view to strengthening the overall composition of the Board and expects to announce at least one additional appointment shortly.
