Globo plc

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
7 March 2014

GLOBO plc ("Globo" or "the Company")

Statement regarding share price movement

Globo plc (LSE-AIM: GBO), the international mobile solutions and IT company, notes the significant move in its share price since 6th March 2014.

Globo is not aware of any material reason for the move in its share price.

As noted in its statement of 6th March, Globo has recently appointed Grant Thornton as its auditor, replacing its incumbent auditor, BDO. BDO has also filed a letter at Companies House notifying that Globo requested its resignation as auditor. There are two important points to note:

1. BDO stated in its letter that it was not able to reach a "mutually acceptable audit scope in relation to our involvement in the work of component auditors, needed to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence on which to base the audit opinion on the group financial statements."

For the purposes of clarification, BDO had requested to take over the audit of all Globo group companies, including the audit of all subsidiary companies, which was performed at that time by Globo's component auditors, Grant Thornton. BDO's proposal was at greatly increased cost, which was not acceptable to the Board of Globo. It is because it was not appointed to audit the subsidiaries that BDO stated that it did not have an "acceptable audit scope".

Globo has now appointed Grant Thornton to audit all its group companies, including subsidiaries.

2. BDO has not raised any other concerns relating to the work that it did in relation to the Globo group prior to its resignation. The audit for the full year ending December 31st 2013 had not yet been commenced when BDO was replaced.

As Globo is currently in a Close Period it cannot comment on trading, but refers investors to the Trading Update of January 28th which indicates strong operating performance, balance sheet and cash generation.

Nice move today, back to the 60s and 70s soon.

mitzy - 30 Apr 2014 16:24 - 133 of 250

Looking good today.

required field - 30 Apr 2014 17:38 - 134 of 250

Going long...

Greyhound - 01 May 2014 08:30 - 135 of 250

Good start to the day, once we're through the 60p should finally mark the end of this downwards trend over the last 6 months. Breaking 200dma.

chessplayer - 01 May 2014 09:08 - 136 of 250

A good reason for the fall of course can be put down to the general sell off in the tech sector.
It looks like the next target is the green line at about 58p.

panto - 01 May 2014 11:29 - 137 of 250

Despite the shorters ( dougtnut and company ) talking negative on the Twitter yesterday, there was a good move late on the day and further rise today.

The results confirms the good state of the company and its future.

mitzy - 01 May 2014 14:20 - 138 of 250

Flying today.

required field - 01 May 2014 20:54 - 139 of 250

The results were excellent....took a long spread out on them....if I wasn't so much in Faroe Petroleum would add here....

panto - 06 May 2014 14:10 - 140 of 250

Sold my lot at 53.05p that is enough in a month for a 22% gain

required field - 08 May 2014 09:02 - 141 of 250

Disappointed about the sp here...expected better response than this...

panto - 08 May 2014 13:57 - 142 of 250

Back in at 46.25p, it seems the support at 46p was holding well today, the large retracement in just a week is a good point to bounce from

panto - 09 May 2014 10:26 - 143 of 250

the bounce is on as the closing yesterday was UT at the lowest point 44.50p

Is a good omen of the order book telling the bottom

panto - 12 May 2014 12:26 - 144 of 250

certainly not moving fast up but there are signs of trying at least
