Agreed guys! I plan to top up as soon as I can free some readies.

This para from the RNS is significant well to me anyway as I work in the IT industry and with Broadband being the norm in most countries the adveritising revenue alone could become substantial especially with the addition of the US mirror site!!

"When we piloted a similar site previously, over three quarters of a million people streamed our content in a month; this can now be leveraged into significant revenues from advertisers,' said chief executive Chris Hunt."

Have a good weekend all.

Nice RNS this morning for any of us with the patience still to be in...........

You bet, Alan. Still here after 4 years and counting ....

The cannon is getting loaded more tightly each month it seems.

Just in case anyone missed it, there is to be a 1 for 100 consolidation, subject to shareholder approval at EGM on 6 August, effective date expected to be 7 August.

great write up in shares mag... BUY!

The full Shares article is now on the DCD website.

Been waiting for anyone elses thoughts on todays RNS, but here goes mine;
I hope it is a well planned strategy and the management are capable of delivering the cost savings and economies they rely on. They have institutional support, so one imagines the institutions have satisfied themselves that the savings and the management are in place and able. If this is os, watch 'em go!
I fear that it is too much at once and that DCD's eye may well be taken off the ball. If this is so, watch 'em drop!
Either way it is a very interesting play, but not for widows and orphans.

And now an RNS that the PDMR's have been buying up today. 136500 shares in total. They are confident they can deliver.
Alan

Alan - As you know, I've been with these for over 4 years and am still waiting patiently.

My resolve remains strong due in part to the fact that the USS pension fund (among others) is also here.

Their growth/acquisition rate is beginning to look a little alarming but the PDMR purchases are a welcome sign.

Alfa.

I take it these are up a bit today after consolidation?

A tad - no more.

Director buying at 73 & 74p

Looks like EVO are taking a bullish view of these again, suggesting 120p target.

DCD Media reports strongest sales performance to date at MIPCOM event
AFX


LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Entertainment production and distribution group DCD Media PLC reported its strongest sales performance to date at the MIPCOM international television festival in Cannes, France.

The company said its distribution arm, NBDTV, had particularly successful pre-sales talks for a forthcoming Stephen Fry project and that pre-sales in discussion at MIPCOM were estimated to be worth about 500,000 stg.

Box TV, another of DCD's production units which advanced talks on further sales, is expected to add 500,000 stg of foreign sales for 'Last Enemy', while its 'Bon Voyage' production might close significant sales in Europe and Latin America in the near future, DCD Media said.

This is going the same way as ERT and ITV Media stocks seem to be out of favour at the moment.

Hunt must be kicking himself...now an all time low and results in 4 working days

Excellent results out today.
Wish all my holdings did this well on a bad day for the markets.
Alan
