The trouble with any stock hit by shorters is it takes time for people to trust their faith in a stock .Apparently it's being said GOGGLE is acquiring a similar Co in USA. Maybe a reason for uplift.

Still way undervalued I reckon, sticking with it.

A very good morning rise to 48.375p +2.50p

Something of a a tech bounce for the last few days on the marke,t has help to bounce from a very depress lows

Beginning to get back to more sensible levels, hopefully we'll break 60p before too long - for the last time!

Finally breaking 60p. RBS reiterated outperform, tp 110p 3rd June.

Globo plc (LSE-AIM:GBO), the international provider of enterprise mobility management solutions and software as a service, announces a trading update for the five months ended 31 May 2014, ahead of its AGM to be held today at 10.00a.m. at 55 Old Broad Street, London EC2M 1RX.

Pre-AGM Trading Update

The Group has seen a strong start to 2014, ahead of market expectations. Growth has been driven by increasing GO!Enterprise revenues, the continued growth of our consumer CitronGO! business, and new enterprise customer and partner wins.

Our focus in 2014 is on enlarging our sales teams, investing in R&D and business development, empowering our marketing strategy and setting up the infrastructure, systems and processes for future global growth.

Australian project win

We are also delighted to announce that Globo, as part of a consortium led by a leading Australian mobile operator and our partner Mobilise IT, has been selected as the provider of technology and services for a major multiyear governmental mobile health project in Australia. The project will initially offer secure and standard compliant mobile iPad apps to more than 10,000 doctors for access to medical records, delivering care in the home, and assessing requirements for preventative medicine.

The project is anticipated to contribute a significant number of GO!Enterprise licenses and consulting and professional services revenues to the Group.

Globo's non-executive Chairman, Barry Ariko commented:

"Following an exceptional financial performance last year, driven by revenue and profit growth as well as free cash flow generation, Globo has continued to achieve strong revenue and profit growth this year across both enterprise and consumer segments. The BYOD trend is transforming the way enterprises operate and with its compelling product offering, Globo is at the heart of this.
We regard this project win in Australia as a significant validation of our drive for a worldwide footprint for GO!Enterprise marketing and revenue, both in terms of geographic reach and scale of contract .
We are in an excellent position to address this dynamic market trend and are confident that 2014 will deliver further profitable growth for shareholders."

Globo's CEO, Costis Papadimitrakopoulos commented:

"Globo is now one of the global leaders in the BYOD and Mobile Application Development markets, as demonstrated by our recent win in Australia and our inclusion in Gartner's Enterprise Mobility Management Magic Quadrant. Our focus and investment in innovation continues in 2014 and we look forward to further expansion in mature geographies, such as the United States. We remain very optimistic for 2014."

Good trading update with strong start to 2014 and ahead of market expectations.

HAS BEEN A START PERFORMER FOR THE LAST MONTH

Now needs to break 60p and hold already higher than the previous one 58.50p on the new UPtrend

A better chart, MoneyAM is not correct for the last couple days

Volatile few days or few months even. Hopefully forming some higher lows and we'll eventually get above 60p again. We know trading is going well.

Cluster director buying - 5 directors in total.

H1 revenue seen slightly ahead of expectations. RBS Capital Markets maintains buy, tp 110p

Canaccord out with buy rec on 10th Sep, tp 90p - I haven't seen this before now for some reason.

Globo has been included in Ovum's 2014-15 Decision Matrix for EMM Solutions. "The demand for cross-platform mobile management has created a fast growing and extremely competitive market for EMM solutions", said Richard Absalom, Senior Analyst Enterprise Mobility at Ovum. "We are tracking over 70 vendors offering some form of EMM capability. Globo offers a well-rounded, end to end EMM solution, and is one of very few vendors to offer five out of six of our defined components"

Within Globo's EMM and MADP ecosystem thiscertificationapplies equally to functions such as email, messaging, file access or browsing, and connection to back-end systems or databases.

3 Growth Companies I’d Buy Now: Globo PLC, Plus500 Ltd And Quindell PLC

With stock markets tumbling around the world, now is the time to bag a bargain. In particular, there are a wide range of growth companies which are as cheap as chips. So here are my three small-cap picks.

Globo

Globo (LSE: GBO) is a technology company that provides mobile apps and services to business. This is a fast-growing area, and the company has seen an impressive increase in its earnings, as the eps progression below shows:

2011: 3.26p, 2012: 4.22p, 2013: 6.2p, 2014: 8p, 2015: 10p

When a company grows as quickly as this, there can be a lot of volatility, but choose your moment well and you can bag a growth company at a value price.

I think this is one such moment: the 2014 P/E ratio is 5.6, falling to 4.5 in 2015.

Considering how quickly this company’s profits are growing, that is astonishingly cheap.
ps As I have previously stated, all the shorts have done is massively detach the co's share price from it's fundamentals.

A sensible 2015 p/e for a fast growing techcompany would be say 15, which implies a share price of around 150p, 13 months out.

If the share price continues to be depressed,I can't see Globo remaining independent.

Chart is looking promising with RSI and Stochastic around 50, but someone is controling the share price movement ( the shorting buggers)
