Media Corp (Gaming Corpoartion GMC)Attracting Some Big Names. (MDC)     

goldfinger - 05 Dec 2003 00:33

Up nearlly 15% today and I beleive there could be more to come.

Evil Knievil has tipped it on EvilCast and has bought in 100,000 worth of stock a notifiable interest. He rates the management very highly and says they are attracting all the big bookmakers to the online casino site including punters the likes of William Hill, Chandler, and Ladbrokes. The company are now running at a profit every month and should break into a yearly profit from the years previous loss very soon. The company also ownes in partnership with a Swiss firm Boss another casino site and by all accounts that is doing well.

Im looking at this one as a momentum play pretty high risk as there are competitors out there but I feel the management will give it the edge.

Please DYOR, and remember you are responsible for your own buying and selling actions.

cheers GF.

Lets hope so, it's been stagnant for some time now. I think the broker forcast was for 25p.

Tipped by Independent as a BUY!
GMC time is finally coming!!!

mickeyskint - 30 Sep 2005 14:09 - 791 of 1117

I got this from the other side. Nothing new but just a reminder of good things to come.

SONO POVERO - 29 Sep'05 - 15:00 - 13792 of 13807


And what about this one? (just formulating more scenarios while sipping my lavazza)

News have leaked out to the MM. Imminent RNS announcing formally the launching of the poker initiative published recently. On the 14th September they announced in their RNS (the CAPITALS are mine):

"The multiplayer internet and mobile poker software which has been developed with Ongame is in the final stages of development and will be launched over the NEXT FEW WEEKS. The poker site will offer Casino.co.uk customer's access to OVER 5 MILLION registered poker players across Ongame's poker network. The software will allow our customers to play online and via their mobile phone".

I guess this means the cash can be generated in real time as soon as the site is up and running. from potential 5 million people! And 2 weeks ago they were saying the launch was FEW WEEKS away. It could happen tomorrow, which is Friday. Time to digest the news, Weekend press and by the end of next week I will say farewell to Lidl for ever.

As a reminder, they sounded really very upbeat:

The Company expects that operating profit before exceptional costs will be
MATERIALLY HIGHER than management's earlier expectations.

Justin Drummond, Chief Executive of Gaming Corp, commented,

"The Group has made TREMENDOUS PROGRESS during this year having completed a
number of key acquisitions and having successfully launched some groundbreaking
and innovative new gaming sites".

"The mobile gaming division is going from strength to strength and we believe
that THE NEW POKER SITE WILL PROVIDE A CONSIDERABLE NEW REVENUE STREAM TO THE GROUP".

Adding the recent rerating at 25p, I think who has spare cash and doesn't see this stock at 13.5p as a serious investment (I admit I was blind as well until today) should be either be treated urgently or alternatively be forced fed with marmite.


This was a substantiated ramping, mainly triggered by poverty.

Dynamite - 30 Sep 2005 14:11 - 792 of 1117

hmmmmm don't bother MS you have made it go down now :-( I'm getting a bit fed up with this share..holding on though
Di

moneyplus - 30 Sep 2005 14:55 - 793 of 1117

added a few more on the dip--results in nov. should be good and the directors have bought some hefty chunks. I'm hoping it's worth the wait.

mickeyskint - 30 Sep 2005 15:05 - 794 of 1117

I must admit it has streached my patience but it will come good in the end. The gaming sector has taken a bashing recently but this has stood up well in comparison to the others in the sector.

Posted by Joe on SC site wednesday Mickey...............

Update from today's Morning Market View:

Arbuthnot has reviewed the Online Gaming Stocks and has a strong buy on Sportingbet SBT (375p target) and says buy Empire Online EOL (cutting the target to 210p from 240p), BETonSPORTS BSS (raising the target to 185p from 165p), Gaming Corporation GMC (21p target); they are neutral on PartyGaming PRTY (95p target).
cheers GF.

mickeyskint - 30 Sep 2005 15:47 - 796 of 1117

Thanks for that GF. I talked my wife into buying some and guess what, the price dropped. 21p would do just fine, I'll be able to get me leg over again as the supply's been cut off till she gets her money back.

MS

DarthVader - 06 Oct 2005 12:53 - 797 of 1117

The right time to buy is NOW @12.25. Won't last long, tick up on the way. THIS is the beggining of the rally (and this time past 14p)!!!



DarthVader - 06 Oct 2005 15:22 - 798 of 1117

The offer has gone up.
You can have a peek at the new online and mobile casino here(currently being tested on line):

britshare - 21 Oct 2005 13:44 - 799 of 1117

the buying pressure is building at 10.50 -10.75p level following the positive update from PRTY today. A STRONG BUY as per latest Arthbutnot upgrade.

mickeyskint - 21 Oct 2005 16:26 - 800 of 1117

I think we could see this rising up to the results 3rd week November. Lets hope numbers will be good.

mickeyskint - 21 Oct 2005 16:38 - 801 of 1117

Looking good for monday (I hope)

mickeyskint - 21 Oct 2005 16:43 - 802 of 1117

From the other side, a positive post.

Gaming Corporation

GMC.L / 10.3p / 28.2m / Strong Buy from Buy
We initiated coverage on Gaming Corporation (our report "A magnet for gaming customers"; 23 Aug; 32pp) when its share price was 13p, but they have suffered in line with the dip in sentiment surrounding the online gambling operators and closed at a low of 10.25p last night. We feel that this is harsh given the relative attraction of the GMC business model and the confidence expressed in its trading statement (14 September). We expect over 60% of gross profit to come from advertising fees from other operators who are keen to secure space on the group's heavily-trafficked gambling-themed portals, Gambling.com and Casino.co.uk. In the statement, GMC said that during the early months of ownership the Gambling.com business had continued to exceed their expectations at the time of acquisition and that growing customer acquisition costs were proving beneficial to the business (as operators are now paying 50% higher rates to the group). It also said that the mobile gaming service set up with in
partnership with Orange UK had exceeded its initial customer registration and revenue generation targets. We have included only a very modest contribution from this revenue stream in our forecasts, so this could provide an upgrade at a later stage if progress continues to be encouraging. There has been a month's delay in launching a new online poker service (which will also be available via mobile devices) but we understand that the launch remains imminent. Sector ratings have come back but even if this leaves our target price of 21p (which would put the stock on a 2006E P/E of 22.5x, falling to 12.6x) looking a little aggressive, we are confident that there is substantial upside here. The company concluded the recent update by stating that operating profit before exceptionals would be materially higher than management's earlier expectations and bullish comments on the group's progress. We are therefore raising our recommendation to Strong Buy.

I remember some time ago having a conversation with someone else on this BB in regards to the penetration of gambling over mobile phones......and how it would be difficult from a marketing perspective, as for the time being it was not allowed for a company to send you ads of any sort to your mobile - be that in texts or otherwise - unless you had previously given them permission to do so.......

i have recently read on the t1ps.com site how the Evil one is going short on a company because he believes that the "forthcoming launch of Smart Ads"......" a free to use mobile phone service where the customers "pay" by agreeing to receive annoying adverts."; will have a negative impact on them......

- from GMC's point of view; surely this would be a perfect way to get into the mobile phones of the bored commuters during their peak hour rush to and from work - perhaps offering them free games that lead into some form of gambling - the way they do on their website......that is of course if they are allowed to eventually advertise thru this type of service.....

nevertheless - the communication medium has been opened.

Paulo2 - 26 Oct 2005 07:44 - 804 of 1117

The right time to buy, DV, was when the offer was 10.25p.

Unfortunately I got back in just before the drop at 12.18 so only looking at a profit now.

Can see it rising to 15p pre-results and I'll be looking to sell my trading block at 18p, hopefully. My core holding will be staying in the bank until the company is bought out -- or there's a rumour of a bid.

Speaking of rumours, it seems T-Mobile could be the next network to sign up.

woodwar73 - 27 Oct 2005 09:21 - 805 of 1117

Hi, anyone got any explanations to offer on the slip in sp we've seen over the last two days?

I read many theories on other BBs including "natural retrace following a buying phase" and even that the trade at 09:58 yesterday of 1 share is a MM signal to hold the sp back!

Any thoughts much appreciated.

PS Usually post on ADVFN but since they've redesigned their site I cannot view it from my work PC - anyone in a similar boat?

Paulo2 - 01 Nov 2005 12:23 - 806 of 1117

Check out the future, boys and gals:

http://poker.casino.co.uk/default.aspx

GMC has the two best portals in the business -- www.casino.co.uk and www.gambling.com -- and they'll both soon be directing punters to its own casino site.

You can now download the software to your desktop by pushing the play now button. Official opening can't be too far away.

mickeyskint - 01 Nov 2005 12:47 - 807 of 1117

The results should be out later this month broker price target of 21p.

MS

Paulo2 - 01 Nov 2005 12:49 - 808 of 1117
