DYOR - - - - - - - - - Biom Technologies mid-July 2010 AIM
This is the new resting place for Stanelco, the wonder producer of starch-based food-trays...only they didn't catch on.Over the last 10 years to 2010 the 0.1p shares traded abour 2.5p then shot up to 24p during 2005 with promise of Tray-Trials I understand. Within a year or so, they fell to new depths and finished at 0.2p Of course they were full-list then and some were held in ISA's hoping there would be a big profit...only now these are distressed sales as the Company slunk off to AIM, presumably "...to provide better shareholder-value"
Perhaps someone closer to the Co. can explain why the new name is Biome
....rhymes with Home. Often it is done to remove the previous sp-history.
Could it be..so new investors can bask in ignorance, etc. I'm not aware of any "change" in fortune for SEO, rather the reverse.
In my limited experience, the longer the name of a company the longer you have to wait for any return...Huh . . . . . .
. SEO had been a terrible investment.
DYOR.
Can Biome be any worse...?
EDIT ( 24April2017)- "just woken up" -me not BIOME - sp is 154, but I note about June 2013 there was what looks like a CONsolidation . . do I recall many LT investors were sold-short?... as I believe the (new share) numbers were terrible! . . . Anyone?

can't see this bunch of wasterals (interested in composting shareholder value) would dare attend a meeting with retail shareholders.
Currently 0.21p to buy, that's 5 for a penny nearly...
So we lost the 24p spike, short-lived excitement over potato trays (starch) as if the other Cos in packaging couldn't do better - what a whopper!
I think ProActive are trying to promote small share ownership and hearing what Management has to say - but it would exclude wafflers - and BIOM is well ahead in potato products, isn't it . . . I think they are still planting them.

Hangon,
Remember the good old times when you could get 4 chews for an old penny. I thought those times re 4 of anything for a penny would never return.
Like your word, 'wasterals', I wonder if in future the term 'Doing a Biome' might mean your term re composting shareholder value.
A bit like doing a 'Rackman'.
Mind you, you might be far too young to know what I am on about.
Regards Greek.

Skinny,
That was them, blackjacks, and yes it was 8 for an old penny, so for 1 and a bit of a blackjack you could buy 1 Biome share. Sad really!.

: Biotec rides on green wave
Emmerich, 21.07.2011, Marco Virgillito
Emmerich. The Emmericher company of Biotec expects sales growth of 70 percent to 35 million euros. Dr. Barbara Hendricks (SPD) was visiting.
Organic is worth it! The company Biotec from Emmerich will come in profits this year for the first time. The biodegradable plastics manufacturer expects a turnover of EUR 35 million. In the past year were it 21 million euros - an increase of 70 percent is therefore expected.
"We are considering whether we introduce the six or even the seven-day week", describes Managing Director Peter Brunk. Currently, Biotec has 29 employees; It could be 33 to 35.
EU plans could mean further upswing
The SPD Bundestag delegate and Treasurer, Dr. Barbara Hendricks, would have can choose so hardly a better moment for their visit at Biotec. With a broad chest, Peter Brunk could lead the Kleverin by the workshops.
If you now wonder why writes the company of the Werner Heisenberg road, which has already existed since 1992, only now the black, which can be reassured: the shareholders of the company, which once started as Melitta subsidiary, are the sphere group from Paris, as well as biomes of technologies from England. At the same time, the shareholders are the largest customers. In principle, they have can conduct research and produce for their concerns. Biotec was ahead of its time long.
Today, the Emmericher company to 90 percent on potato or granules for film-based corn starch manufactures. "Without any plasticizer." "Other companies do not have that," stresses Dr. Hendricks.
The granules are reflected in shopping bags are completely biodegradable. This features such as the special draw strength in a bag may not suffer. "We offer the alternative to petroleum-based products", says Peter Brunk.
The EU enforces its plans to ban plastic bags petroleum, another large upswing could be in store for Biotec.
Currently, the capacity is for the first time saturated: some 25 000 tonnes of granulate can produce Biotec in the year. But it depends also from raw material supply: "Potatoes are scarce," says Brunk. In good harvest a ton potato starch costs 400 euros in poor harvest of 1,000.

There appears a link nevertheless, my friend,
see papa " If you now wonder why....."
It would be nice if Biome Tech could release a translated version
. . . otherwise we shall assume "...it slumbers still, - yet, it feins life!"
Biome roughly translated is something like:-
B****d Off, Gone home.
A disgraceful investment IMHO.
EDIT 19Aug2011):- massive sp rise (well, for Biome!), caused by someone spilling 2k onto the Market - and then doing the same again.....I wonder what they know that's only worth that amount of dosh? - DYOR -
I've often wanted to own a million shares in a Co . . . . but this isn't the one.

Don't suppose they will pay the long time suffering holders our expenses to get to the Mayfair Hotel and a room for the night? I noticed it is wine and canapes (not champagne and canapes)!!!!!! Anything would do to get something out of the company. Obviously I won't be attending haha!!

Logically they must think it's worthwhile - yet I guess Retail Shareholders are a small% of holders.
Two Questions:
1)- Is this a genuine get-rich at last? - NO, the Dirs would be buying and the sp would be up, up, up (I think it's down today- isn't it always!).
2), is this a prelude to a Rights Issue - much more likely IMHO. The only time Co's give Retail Shareholders "anything" is when they want money - and find the City a tad frosty.
(Otherwise they'd do a deal in the City, where we are taken as suckers).I -shan't be going, even if asked.
EDIT: (26Aug2011) Yes i see they did have a City deal for 2m - but that doesn't explain the "presentation do" - BTW where is this announcement? As I don't see any recent RNS.
