Pace have fallen a lot over the last 6 months. The move to digital is near, do you think they can recover. Presently way off previous highs.

Pace Micro reported a pre-tax profit before goodwill and exceptional items of 8.1 million pounds in the year ending June 4. Turnover rose to 253.3 million pounds from 239.9 million pounds.
PE is less than 10, I think.

Spirent at 77p and rising. Pace is quiet!

This baby is finally starting to move. 100p to come.

I agree heading to 100p

My wife made 10 grand on these when they got to 11 quid, on the rise again so maybe a good time to get in...

Pace Micro Technology plc

Period end trading update and notice of results


Pace Micro Technology plc, the leading independent developer of digital TV
technologies for the global payTV industry, is providing a period end update for
the year ending 2nd June 2007. The Company will release its Preliminary results
on Tuesday 24th July.


The foundations put in place over the last year by the new Pace management team,
including enhanced customer focus, company structure, operating model and
product execution, have delivered improved results in the second half of the
financial year. Consequently, overall performance for the year ending 2nd June
2007 is expected to be slightly ahead of current market expectations.


Pace is benefiting from better than expected performance in the US market where
in the case of some of its customers it has executed better than the
competition, as well as ongoing strong performance in the Group's other world
markets. Common to all Pace markets, most importantly the US, is growing
consumer demand for high definition (HD) products, in particular HD personal
video recorders (PVR), following rapid growth in sales of HD-ready flat panel
televisions and expanding HD content.


Pace has taken advantage of this growing market by building long-term
relationships with the world's leading pay TV operators, as well as being first
to market in new technologies such as MPEG-4 compression, which is enabling
operators to drive ahead with their HD launches. With a further eight million
MPEG-4 HD set-bop boxes expected to be installed in Europe alone by 2010, Pace
is well placed to benefit from its early investment in this and other new
technology platforms.

A recommendation in Shares mag. on friday too...

i just wish i'd stayed in a lot longer than i did.

I think it's just the beginning. It was 13 before.

ahoj....13 -does anyone else seriously think this will be reached again?....Not I!

The co was swept along in the early dot-com era with the promise that they supplied these new interactive digital thingy set-top boxes and every TV would need at least one!
The reality is that digital is still not universal and the rush to receive that funny Monkey-channel was doomed. The freeview scene has finally put paid to anything that doesn't have sports-exlusive (and /or maybe porn?)...there are so many free channels that makers are struggling to make the box for 20 retail and the retailer's price is nearer 10.
Sky is the alternative player with the strength of their Sports deals and I suspect over time they will struggle, as Governments realise this is not a level playing-field and possibly the long-awaited High definition will draw crowds to alternative channels, like BBC.
Such dedicated commercial boxes can be made anywhere...I don't see Pace was smart enough to buy/invent the technology (did they?) .....so....Not much profit for Pace, although I understand they are stronger in the HDD Personal Video Recorder market, but for how long, as computers take over all media activities?
So-called set-top boxes are cheap and likely to be surpassed by decoders in the TV - so where does this leave Pace?
Not convinced it leaves them anywhere.
If you've "broken even", I'd be inclined to sell.
But DYOR first!

It's definitely starting to look interesting.

Pace has been very stable in recent month, after the rise to 130 three month ago.

680,000 buy this morning should start to effect soon.

It is one of the cheapest hightech companies. Given LG and Samsung sale of HDTV, we should see a big jump in TopBox sale.

Pace Micro Technology plc AGM and Interim Management Statement


Mike McTighe, Chairman of Pace Micro Technology plc, the leading independent
developer of digital TV technologies for the global payTV industry will give the
following update at the Company's AGM later today:

'I am pleased to say that Pace is on track to meet the Board's recently revised
expectations for the shortened 2007 financial year. As previously stated this
strong performance is due to us exceeding margin improvement targets across the
range of Pace's set-top box products following management action to improve
operational and business efficiencies, and an exceptional performance from our
US business for this period.

'While the current exceptional sales performance in the US, as previously noted,
is anticipated to adjust to more sustainable levels in 2008, Pace has continued
to develop its business across all of the major world markets for payTV. In
these markets the momentum towards high definition is increasing and demand for
PVR products continues to grow. Pace has announced new business with BSkyB, won
new business for high definition PVRs and interactive standard definition
products with Multichoice of South Africa, and continued to extend the number of
cable customers it serves in the US.

'The company-wide restructuring implemented in 2006, the establishment of
Customer Account Teams as well as wide-ranging business improvements have
delivered greater customer focus, improved product execution and margins.
Looking further ahead, the Board continues to be confident that Pace, through
its growing customer base, technology leadership, new products and further
improvements in operational performance will meet its expectations for the 2008
financial year. '

Note to editors: Pace's shortened financial year commenced 3rd June 2007,
following a change to Pace's accounting year-end, where future financial
year-ends will close at the end of the calendar year.
