Fitbug Holdings Plc is an AIM listed holding company of Fitbug Limited, a leading provider of online coaching services. The Company offers online personal health and well-being services through fitbug.com by combining interactive tracking devices and web technology to measure activity and health indicators, provide feedback and motivate the user towards a healthier lifestyle without making dramatic lifestyle changes.



Not only is Fitbug sold to consumers through fitbug.com, but it provides a range of offerings to the Private Medical Insurance, workplace health, primary care and fitness club sectors.



Fitbug has a number of strategic partnerships in the UK and internationally with blue-chip clients. These include Bupa (also a significant shareholder), Nectar, PruHealth, The Vitality Group (USA) and Yorbody (Holland and Belgium) as well as a number of NHS Primary Care Trusts.



The Company has recently closed two of its subsidiaries to concentrate on Fitbug, changing its name from ADDleisure to Fitbug in December 2009. At the same time 1.2 million was raised in a placing at 10 pence per share. The placing was well supported by directors of the Company.



Looking forward, Fitbug has an exciting pipeline of new business opportunities both in the UK and internationally. The Company anticipates that it will see the business grow through 2010 and beyond. Certainly the positive trading update issued on 9 February indicates that the year has started well for Fitbug.

Some good news!

Fitbug's range of innovative, fully integrated connected health products will feature on CarePass, a new interactive consumer website and mobile app launched by Aetna.

Aetna is one of the leading diversified health care benefits companies in the US and serves an estimated 44 million people.

CarePass will be promoted and available to all, not just Aetna's 44 million members, and as a result will provide significant opportunity to increase Fitbug's client reach.

Big volume of late no movement in share price though.

Online personal health and well-being services provider Fitbug's products will be stocked by US retail chain Target and UK supermarket J Sainsbury.

These represent Fitbug's largest retail sales agreements worldwide to date. Target, one of the largest retailers in the US, is an upscale discount chain with approximately 1,800 stores which also operates an online business, Target.com. Fitbug products will be stocked in all of Target's US stores from November 9th 2014 and on Target.com. In addition, Sainsbury's has agreed to stock Fitbug products in 293 stores from 9 November.

Amazing day.

And we're still going...!

Still powering ahead!

Incredieble .

..And again.

Looks like it's just the 2 of us then Mitzy! I sold a quarter of my holding today which covered the full cost of my original holding. So the remaining three-quarters are a free ride :)

Well done chaps, nice trading!

I am out today will go back in @ 4p next results more losses ect this may be a foolish move by me

May crash if court case goes against them in the States, but should soar if it goes their way. Toss of a coin on that one but if the new deals announced last week bear fruit, and even more deals, losses may be a thing of the past sooner rather than later.

More newsflow, and the SP up a whopping 35% so far today. Not sure about some of the product names but the market seems to like it!

Fitbug, the AIM listed provider of online personal health and well-being services, has launched its KiQplan digital health coaching platform, www.KiQplan.com. KiQplans are designed to make wearable technology relevant to new audiences and take the "so what?" out of activity tracking by providing structured action plans to help people get fitter, lighter and lead happier, healthier lives. Focused on measurable outcomes, KiQplan is like having a trainer, nutritionist and lifestyle guru all rolled into one.

Created by leading experts in their respective fields, each KiQplan puts data from wearables to work by providing personal targets, feedback and advice, plus the encouragement needed to achieve specific goals.

Launching in US retailer Target, the first four KiQplans will include specific weight loss programmes for men and women called Beer Belly Blaster and Slim + Trim respectively, as well as a pre-natal regime called Healthy Baby Bump and a post-natal plan called Goodbye Baby Bump .

Wow.

Having started this thread off in March 2010 and then selling when things were quiet I'm now back in as of today! onwards and upwards!

Welcome back skyhigh!
