From earlier this year.



"The fund raise significantly strengthens Symphony's balance sheet and will
allow us to maintain the quantum growth we have enjoyed over the past few
months. We are now receiving significant interest from a variety of sectors in
our degradable solution to the problems associated with plastic waste and,
following this strengthening of our resources, we are in a much stronger
position to meet the considerable demand for our products."




This last statement shows that corporations are looking seriously at Symphonys products. Yesterdays announcement shows a real coup for the company, as they have walked away from a potential exclusivity contract with no penalties!. Rarely seen IMO.

Bio-degradeable products are appearing everywhere, especially in the consumer disposal market, and Symphony look to be taking a large chunk of this with their own brands.

I believe strongly in the management of the company. I see they have the technical ability and also the qualities required to deal with the financial markets. Too often we see an excellent company with strong technical management, only to see them fail as they have no idea how to deal with the stock market.


That is why I am nominating Symphony plastics as my "tip of the week". If you get in early enough, I believe you could see a potential treble bagger by the end of July.

I would welcome your comments on the above analysis.

nice posts, it would be even better if we had more interest. hope the present slight dip is temporary. agree that the price of oil which looks to remain high, as I think will gold though not commodities in general, will have less of an impact now that SYM's main revenue is derived from the distribution of d2w. we need news flow to maintain the sentiment.

Yes and the price, in my experience un proven smaller companies tend to slide when there is no news flow. Are we expecting any news?

Thanks for that GDP. I hold SEO which is having issues itself at present. VLR has been on my watchlist for a while. I definately think Green is the way to go. I'm into MNE which is worth a look as it tracks the sector.

new distribution deal in Brazil though no RNS ! may explain the sudden increased interest. chart appears to be heading toward the 14p mark again.

where did you hear that ... On the 14 p Note the chart does certainly look good.

i think this one could go a lot higher though ... And it may sound ambitious but I believe 20p could be achievable in 2006.

Well it reached 24p last year so it's not that far fetched GDP.

from the sym website. no idea of the value of this contract for d2w via distributor- assume sym receives a percentage. it proves that there is a technology with growth potential!

End

Sounds good, but they included no financial projections - although as you say it must be based on some sort of royalty.

Ive just added to my holding at 10.12p, I think we could see some positive news and therefore share price movements soon.

Is that a crystal ball I see in your hand GDP?

Symphony Plastic Technologies, the degradable plastics company, said sales are growing as household-name brands in various countries are increasingly using its products for environmentally friendly packaging.

The firm has shifted its strategy to focus on selling its d2w(R) additive, which assists degrading, rather than finished plastic products, and is also strengthening its international distribution.

Well-known brands using Symphony products include UK publisher IPC Media, Brazilian drinks group Schincariol, and hotel groups Marriott and Royal Caribbean International, the company noted.

Michael Laurier, CEO, underlined the 'increasing motivation of suppliers and manufacturers to take active steps towards adopting more environmentally friendly plastics.'

Surely the use of totally degradable plastic packaging is going to become the norm in the next few years, and should signal a potentially huge upsurge for SYM. I don't know whether there are many competitors in this field. Does anyone else now of any?

Sometimes you get lucky Queen, 12% in 12 hours not too bad!

Trigger - I agree which is why I'm hanging in there. Not aware of significant competition but would be interested to know of any.

GDP - Just be sure to let me know the next time you're thinking of buying into a company!

clear break- out, next target 14p- if only general market sentiment was better

I think that could work in our favour. People in these situations tend to look for positive newsflow not specualtion and it seems that SYM is doing just that and so may attract more Investment that usual. However I am fairly new at this game and that is only a theory.

Investment than usual **** Correction

Further rises today, are there any Institutions Invested In SYM or do you think it is just private Investors catching on to SYM 's potential?

GDP- I have checked through the last accounts, for 2004 published Mar '05 and they don't list the instituitional holder's. also no mention on their corporate website. No doubt Hemscott will list but I don't subscribe. the website's are very good, esp the d2w site- well designed and informative.

thanks ddoc2, any predictions for monday?
