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?

Results were scheduled to be out today, but no sign yet, still there is time.

They could have yet another cunning plan.

They could release the results after the market closes, that way the board could fly half way round the world, (do they have a company jet, Biome 1 perhaps) and hiding on some remote island by the time the market opens tomorrow.

Perhaps the money spent this year has gone on a private jet, after all it often makes sense to have a plane on stand-by so successful companies can zoom round the world at short notice doing deals and signing contracts.

Op's forgot, we are talking about Biome!

Greek, you are a day early! Prelims and trading update (for what it's worth!) are tomorrow.

Can't wait, ugh - what a share this is - not!!

Come on Greekman - keep up! :-)

The BBC had a programme on March 4th about plastics made from potatoes, although BIOM were not mentioned, some of their end products were. You can view a short video here:-

Maybe we'll see a small profit from operations this time round, I think it'll be a profit of £2.99 (yes two pounds and 99p)... Anyone else like to hazard a guess at the numbers...

£3.01. I'm an optimist!

Hi Kim, I thought you got out of this load of crap a year or two ago or did you keep some?

From a RNS 23/01/13

Biome Technologies plc, the bioplastics and RF technology business, is pleased to provide a pre-close trading statement for the financial year ended 31 December 2012 ahead of the announcement of the audited Preliminary Results, which are scheduled to be published on 27 March 2013.

So have I missed an amendment to the results?

Profits 3 Cypriot Euros!
I'm a realist!

Greek - it says 28th on their website.

greek you are quite right, all trades blue today!

Thanks Skinny,

Just goes to show, left hand right hand ect!

Hi 3m, you are right, I sold the majority of my holding a couple of years ago whilst I was still a couple of pence in profit, literally a couple of pence, not share price wise! :o)
I couldn't bear to be parted with all of the shares though so I kept 200k for old times sake!!

Tomorrow I will find out that it was a very shrewd move, I have no doubt!! Well, not much doubt. A bit maybe. Erm, quite a lot really!

kim after the share consolidation you might have 2 shares.

Oh no! I'd better do a top up before they twig!

I will have even a longer wait for it to get to 9.78p. I have said it before, I shall be pushing up biodegradable daisies by then!!!!

I kept 100 shares, for reasons which I can't even remember... I made a decent profit on the initial rally then gave most if back with the subsequent fall... As it'll cost far more to sell my 100 shares then there worth I'm in it for the long haul if you could use such a word with these..

Well think yourself lucky you have only got 100 shares, I have 21,539 so it won't take a mathematician long to work out that I have more than likely ditched just over £2.000 grand. hahaha!!!!!!

Sorry I should re phrase "just ditched" to "ditched many years ago".

Ouch!

To be fair to BIOM they do have a good product base. Trouble is, they are not alone!! Oh, and possibly their sales staff are not quite up to the job. Or maybe the whole thing is just a pile of.............
