Have just bought out minority stake in subsiduary C2 telecom. Have appointed Arm Corporate Finance as sponsers. SP up 62% lastweek. Some corporate action in near future as company is profitable and is a nice clean shell. Anyone else a have a holding in this share?

Interims should be out this week or next. Hopefully accompanied with transformational newsflow from Saudi Arabia and some updates on Mexico and South Africa too. Be right timing as far as markets and holiday period nearly over so more volume should return in the markets.

More very recent updates on facebook.

Akhter and family pension fund stand to gain and lose lot more than other investors put together, it will be his interest to make sure it does well, there is no guarantee succeeds in life, all one can do is his best.

Akhter owns 100% Silicon and 40% UTN, committed much to support the company through crisis and injected cash to grow the company. His son became a research student at Southampton University to advance grid parity solar device development in projects no doubt funded by Akhter.

Only time will tell what the outcome be, I am happy to be party to his success if it ever happens.

Very pretty - 0.96p next resistance to break.

Base established in South Africa too - talking to mining companies for remote power.

Blue now as expected - should break 1p ahead of transformational newsflow from many countries imo.

Solid.

- Interims due next week very possibly and hopefully a nice big contract from Saudi Arabia and contracts possibilities from South Africa and Mexico too plus a whole lot more.

As for Saudi, the Oasis product secured a pilot project. The chairman at the time said if the product met expectations then would expect repeat business. Well the product exceeded expectations. Look at the Solar news on Saudi and how much it means to them.

Their partner GTEK in Saudi Arabia - check out their stuff and what's been going on recently via twitter.

The Oasis is the best remote power product imo in the market place.

South Africa - hundreds of mining companies would find it invaluable. Talking to telecoms in Saudi and schools in Mexico.

Their legal Software is worth 1p on the share price on a p/e of just 7. Their website recently states that 2014 has seen a host of new sales.

Silicon CPV - Akhtar Group. Well worth a research.

Treacle32,
I wonder if we are now starting to see some corporate action with the global roll out of Akhter products.
It would seem that Silicon CPV has now changed its name to Akhter Solar Ltd

hTTp://people.bayt.com/en/company/akhter-solar-limited-hattar%2c-haripur-pakistan-formerly-silicon-cpv-plc-uk/#/company/akhter-solar-limited-hattar,-haripur-pakistan-formerly-silicon-cpv-plc-uk/

hTTps://www.facebook.com/pages/Akhter-Solar-Limited-Official/777449415612503

Meanwhile research shows the global ambitions of this company.

Clearly there is a huge void between the global company that it seeks to become and the tiny little 2 million pound company written off by the market.
Having now spent years developing the products, Akhter`s intention is clearly to become a global concern with the roll out of its products worldwide. Obviously to go from a market write off to a global concern is going to have a dramatic effect on the SP over the medium term but the greatest rate of SP appreciation should result from the initial signing of contracts.
It would seem that contract news could now be very close.

hTTp://fivestar-solar.com/silicomcpv.html

Remain very well positioned on chart & ta ahead of possible strong newsflow this week.

http://www.barchart.com/opinions/stocks/UTN.LS

When I called them last week, they said Interims will be announced at similar time as last year. It was 02 September 2013 last year so should be this week and hopefully opportunities news that accompanied last year's Interims is presented with finalised meaty contracts.

"Solar Energy Revolution: A Massive Opportunity"


hTTp://www.forbes.com/sites/peterdiamandis/2014/09/02/solar-energy-revolution-a-massive-opportunity/

And as if to prove the point:

hTTp://cleantechnica.com/2014/09/02/india-install-2200-solar-powered-mobile-communication-towers/

This schools contract in just Mexico could turn out massive. Could be nearer after passing of energy bill in July 2014. Never knew that even the pilot project would include over 100 schools. Talking to telecoms in Saudi Arabia and Mining companies in South Africa. Solar revolutions in all those countries. Host of new sales for Cognito and lots more.

Trading statement in Feb 2013.
"During 2012 the Company highlighted an exciting project in Mexico where it would be working with the Mexican Department of Education to supply approx. 200kw of power through a specially developed hybrid PV system to over 100 schools. This pilot scheme is still under evaluation by the Mexican government and the Company is ready to roll out its systems as soon as the contract is signed. Finally, should the pilot phases be successful there is the opportunity for a significant number of schools across Mexico to join the scheme".

Treacle32,
The problem with quoting 10p right now to all the long term holders is that this share has not done much for such a long time, that many find the concept of this company multiplying by 10 a little unbelievable and given the amount of years this company has stagnated you have to be understanding of that. That does not mean that this company`s day is not about to come however and that day all depends on contracts being signed, How many times have you looked in disbelief as a company`s shares have rocketed as a result of winning a contract and wished you had been in at the start. With UTN we are looking at a number of contract talks in different countries and these would probably leed to follow on contracts which would have a spectacular effect on the shareprice but the contracts need to be signed and you must forgive those who think its all not possible. Personally I find it harder to believe that things won`t happen because talks have been on going for some time and we appear to be on the cusp of some potentially transformational news for the following reasons.

The passing of the energy bill in Mexico will not only allow for the schools contracts but will also allow UTN to be involved in a host of other solar projects within the country. Mexico is very keen to push on with this so I expect news sooner rather than later and if not released with results then in the near term.

In Saudi the pilot project has exceeded expectations and we are now awaiting firm orders.

In South Africa the pilot scheme has been evaluated now for a year so again we now expect firm orders.

All these projects have now been properly evaluated by the different countries and it is now decision time.Contracts could be announed at any time in the near term and if they are as big as they could possibly be and thus transform UTN`s revenues then the market will re evaluated UTN but only after marking UTN`s shares up by a massive amount.
The good thing is that after all this time waiting for UTN to do something, I think that the time is near.
We will see.

Investors in UTN believe that UTN are never going to amount to much and that talk of 10p is all pye in the sky. The market decided that years ago and have wrote them off accordingly but things can and do change and like I say, the fact that the market have written these off will make the share price appreciation that much more spectacular.
People scoff and say yeah we have heard all this before and rightly want to see evidence first before pushing the shares ahead.
As I said before its all about getting these contracts signed off and therefore the difference between 1p and 10p is just a signature.
So is it going to happen? lets just take one example with the Saudi talks where the pilot project has exceeded expectation and follow on orders are to be expected. The market has not valued in any of the potential as yet and waits for the deals to be signed off. Ask many investors and they will be highly sceptical about the deal receiving a signature and yet we know that talks between the Saudi`s and UTN have been ongoing for a year. Is this going to come about? Take a read of the following article and see if you are still as convinced that this is a no no or could UTN pull the big one out of the bag with the first of what could be a number of signatures.

"Saudi Arabia is looking to offset diesel with off-grid solar photovoltaic (PV) applications and hybrid solutions"

"Most significantly, Saudi Aramco and Saudi Electricity Company are discussing plans to replace as much as 300 MW of diesel generation in off-grid locations with solar PV."

The facts are there, UTN has gone global:

Manufacturing facility in Pakistan
Deployable Installation company/team in Spain
Regional Office in Saudi Arabia
Regional Office in South Africa

They are at first base with a Pilot project in saudi with more than a strong chance at repeat orders.
They have the potential of a contract with the Mexico and new business opportunities from the EXPO event they attended in Sept 13.
They have a supply contract in South Africa with mining companies showing interest in their produt line.

They only have to convert one of these opportunities to make a huge difference to the SP; its too late to gain an investment windfall once the news is released. At the current SP levels the biggest risk is not been a shareholder and part of something that has the potential to go north very quickly.

GTek draws its strength from a team of experts from Europe and Saudi Arabia

GTEK our Saudi Arabia partner!!!

- All just in Saudi Arabia where the Oasis product exceeded expectations. Mexico, South Africa, and other countries - abudance of products could be deployed.

Pilot Project talks with Mexico government - over 100 schools. If success, roll out across country. Mining companies in South Africa. How many mining companies in South Africa and then how many could benefit from remote power?

2p a share worth imo on Cognito alone based on 400K profits on p/e of 14. Value of ebikes. Cognito website states seen a host of new sales in 2014. The company said in May 2014 that Cognito continues to generate "significant cash" for the group.
