Petards Group, the surveillance systems developer expects to make a profit in the second half after it completed its restructuring.

Friday 29 Sep 2006:
Chairman Tim Wightman said, From an operational perspective we have now completed the structural changes necessary to implement the board's longer term strategy that was embarked upon over 18 months ago.

Petards said it expects significant deliveries to customers in the last quarter, adding that it is encouraged by the promising pipeline of orders that should secure its continued recovery in 2007 and beyond.

Petards' UVMSTM software is a versatile and totally scaleable network management
tool for the recording, storage and instant retrieval of high volumes of digital
surveillance video. It features advanced recording, camera mapping & image
replay functions and will form the backbone for any new or existing CCTV system.
Its flexibility to grow with clients' security requirements ensures their CCTV
systems have the ability to expand in the future whilst working over a variety
of network protocols.

US sales up to 0.9m (2006: 0.3m)
UVMSTM installed with Casino customers and prospects of further customer
expansion programmes



Commenting on outlook, Tim Wightman, Chairman, said:

'The growth in demand for security and surveillance systems remains strong,
particularly in the US, but the Group is finding that its size and limited
capital resources are constraining its ability to capitalise on the
opportunities. As previously reported, the Board has been appraising the
potential to partner or combine with other businesses to create synergies and
critical mass. It is also considering the financial resources that would be
necessary to enable it to fulfil its potential whilst remaining independent.
This review has been proceeding well and I hope to report to you further on this
over the coming weeks.

'Our on-board rail business, in which we have a leading market position has
reasonable forward visibility, but the timing of order placement for a number of
other significant order prospects, which have shorter lead-times, is uncertain.
Whilst we will be able to execute these orders quickly once received, the full
benefit will not now be realised until next year. This will mean that the
outcome for the current year will fall materially short of our previous
expectations.'

'The growth in demand for security and surveillance systems remains strong,
particularly in the US, but the Group is finding that its size and limited
capital resources are constraining its ability to capitalise on the
opportunities.

The above states quite clearly why this is not worth any interest at the moment.

Petards Supply Surveillance Solution to The 101 Casino
Monday, 12 November 2007
End-to-End IP Solution Features 30 FPS Megapixel Recording, Secure Storage, Access Control and Innovative Camera Deployments

Las Vegas, Nev.(Global Gaming Expo 2007, Booth 5722) November 12-14, 2007

Petards, Inc., leading developer of advanced surveillance systems, announced today at the Global Gaming Expo (G2E) in Las Vegas that its Universal Video Management System (UVMS) is being deployed by The 101 Casino, as it completes a complete remodel of its Petaluma, Calif., facility. The 101 Casino's surveillance upgrade brings together a number of best-in-breed technologies to create a state-of-the-art surveillance system that features:

* end-to-end Internet protocol (IP) video throughout;
* constant 30 frame per second (FPS) megapixel recording;
* innovative use of gaming and counter-mounted cameras;
* secure, next generation, Pivot3 RAIGE high definition storage; and
* integration with Lenel On Guard Access Control system.

The Casino 101 surveillance solution is the latest implementation of UVMS in an all-digital gaming environment. Petards' open architecture enables The 101 Casino to incorporate a variety of the industry's top surveillance technology solutions. The 101 Casino is using IP cameras from Axis Communications and megapixel IQeye IP cameras from IQinVision. More than half the cameras deployed are recording images at 1.3 megapixel or greater. The IQeye cameras are being used to provide HDTV+ image quality in areas that require forensic detail. Axis 209FD cameras also will be deployed in a unique manner in the cash cage, mounted on the counter, angled upwards, in order to eliminate the risk of missing face shots as a result of obstructions, such as baseball caps.

Other technology partners in The 101 Casino deployment include storage from Pivot3 and Access Control Systems from Lenel Systems International Inc. The 101 Casino is deploying Petards' UVMS with Pivot3 High-Definition Storage based on Pivot3 RAID Across Independent Gigabit Ethernet (RAIGE) technology. Offering an added level of reliability and security, RAIGE will distribute the UVMS recordings in parallel across multiple databanks connected by a Gigabit Ethernet network. Lenel produces OnGuard, the enterprise level access control system of choice for a growing number of Fortune 500 corporations.

"Looking at megapixel cameras through UVMS is very impressive," said Randy Yaple, general manager of The 101 Casino. "When you compare these digital images to traditional analog cameras, it is truly a quantum leap from days past. It's thrilling to be able to work with leading technology partners to build a surveillance solution that is so powerful and yet incredibly simple to operate."

Petards' UVMS provides The 101 Casino with the ability to record and control all aspects of gaming surveillance, as well as general premises security surveillance. The casino's security staff can monitor all activities from a central control room featuring three-screen display consoles that have been integrated with a 46-inch video virtual matrix that provides full situational awareness.

"Once again, the usability of the UVMS has made it the ideal video management system for the gaming industry," said Frank Baitman, president of Petards, Inc. "By bundling UVMS with Pivot3 High-Definition Storage, The 101 Casino now has a solution that offers extreme ease-of-use with fault tolerance, scalable performance and a shared storage resource utilized by both the surveillance and access control systems. In short, The Casino 101 will have immediate access to all surveillance recordings, with virtually no risk of image loss on hardware failure."

Netronix Integration, Inc. was responsible for systems integration throughout The 101 Casino. "Petards' UVMS open architecture enabled us to easily tie in Pivot3's RAIGE and Lenel's OnGuard," said Steve Piechota, vice president of Netronix. "The combination of these products creates a compelling solution. Rather than having several individual applications, each with its own storage, we have given The 101 Casino a compact and robust solution."

I take it your Tom pump and dumped failed miserably active, infact more and more
people see what you are pushing and avoid now which is a shame because Peg is
a good play but the good times will come long after you have dumped your small amount of Peg tomorrow.

Looking well oversold. Very tight spread .3/.31

RNS yesterday should entice a bit more interest.

Lots of buying today and online prices are moving higher.

Seems as though sellers are not interested at this price.
