Dawnay, Day Corporate Broking Research Note

Aim Admission Document

AFC is definitely one to stick in the drawer and forget for 2/3 years or more
RM2 falls into a similar category

both companies have very interesting concepts, and though they're pretty high risk, i think they'll both survive and prosper in time

Ugly chart and balance sheet not looking good. I'm afraid it may take a miracle to keep this company going, I hope I am wrong and they can raise more cash.

Ugly chart ? maybe is looking this way long term, but is turning.
Any chances of making any money short term?
will see it on a weeks time now 13.50p

Today's chart looks quite pretty! :o)




I will not be putting any more cash in however, too risky for me.

it needs a 50% rise from this level just to get back to the rights price

14.625p +1.125p

Good movement up this morning and is following the recent rise from the lows

Moving further ahead now 15.125p +1.625p as volume moves to 4M close to the highest for the last 2 month

order book has gone very strong on the depth, considering there are 3 trades at offer side worth not considering as they have been there for some time and are well ahead of the normal prices.

spread 15 v 16p, 63K v 20K

16.375p +1.125p

keeping with the trend up since Monday today is Thursday, already a good size volume

UP to 17.25p+ 2p now, but for some time is holding at this price

Reason : order book Wants to move forward again but someone wants to stop rising fast putting a large order on the offer side

AFC Energy describes itself as ............
“the world’s leading developer of low-cost alkaline fuel cell technology”. The company is focused on large-scale industrial applications, and says its technology “has the potential to be the catalyst, which transforms the way in which industries of today produce energy for tomorrow”.

The company has completed an ambitious programme to prove its technology at a gas plant in Germany — only marginally over schedule and marginally under the target output — and is currently busy optimising the system.

AFC is aiming for 1,000MW of capacity installed or under development by 2020, and so far has a 50MW project development agreement in Korea with an expected revenue to the company of £400m over 10 years.

Surprise surprise. how the order book operates sometimes, there was 156K on the order book offer side at 17.50K, that was what kept the share price on pause for some time, but now at once all of them were taken as "AT" and moves the offer to 17.75p, there was not such big buys not even paying full offer, but about time it was taken on a positive thinking.

14:41:21 17.50 5,700 AT
14:41:21 17.50 50,000 AT

a nice close 17.375p +2.125 (+13.93%)
with another decent volume 4.4M and to finish it off with a well after hours at 16.45 buy of 25k at 17.50p

The fast rise this morning, got the sellers out taking profits

I am out for a 16% gain in two weeks, short term it looks like this morning has reached the top for the moment being.

Has reached top band at Bollinger Bands and overbought at Slow Stochastic

Possibly not a bad time to sell! :o)

re - sell
From my thread earlier ........

AFC 17.75p
An early rise and then profit taking, not unusual considering the strong rise lately and the chart yesterday was signaling some change on the way after the Candlestick of the last 3 days .... "After Three Gap Ups the market becomes extremely overbought and ready for the reversal of the current uptrend"

Yes, I noticed that mentor!

StockMarketWire.com
AFC Energy, the industrial fuel cell power company, has completed the equity swap agreement with Lanstead Capital LLP.

The company entered into a combined placing and equity swap agreement with Lanstead on 8 October in the amount of GBP2.2 million. All 18 settlements of the equity swap agreement have now been completed, with the company having received a total of GBP4.7 million from the placing and agreement.

Are directors crooks this time?

The Company today agreed to grant certain employees options over 399,537
The Options are exercisable at a price of 12.20 pence
-----------
Why 12.20p, the shares were today at opening @ 16.25p, that means almost a 25% discount, out of order

The last 500K options were at 17p the price of the share price at the time.
---------
not holding at the moment

out of curiosity, do you know if Next employees are given share options at the ruling price or at a discount?

of course, with AFC, it's possible that the price was set a couple of weeks back when i recollect it was around 12p

=================

just checked to satisfy my curiosity .....
AFC was ~12.7 closing on Monday 4th April, so that may well be the day of which the price was struck for employees - ie closest monday to start of new fiscal year
