Hi sidtrix, I got burnt real bad with this one everything was going grand with the interims looking extremely positive, then they issued a statement saying they where finding it hard to convert interest into orders.

Ive decided to hold on by the time I got to my computer that morning it had crashed over 20%. Buying in now would be a shrewd move for the long term IMO, im over 35% down so not worth pulling out gonna leave this for at least a year.

sidtrix - 25 May 2005 10:42 - 5 of 27

Got in at 107p last week so not too bad however it did crash from over 200p!!! Yes they did have a delay in converting an order this year however it still looks to me that this is a sound recovery share!
Definately for the medium-long term (6-18 months)

sidtrix - 25 May 2005 10:42 - 6 of 27

Also with directors buying at 102p than you cant really go wrong??? CAN YOU?

legend290782 - 25 May 2005 13:48 - 7 of 27

i held these after the bullish trading statement toward the back end of last year. At the 1.60 level the mms were bidding for stock and only dealt me t3. i sold at 1.89 - my broker told me i must be mad. At the time evos leaked a research note on another bb that had a target price of 2.20 odd.

I still think that if you are prepared to wait and hold at the current price you will be rewarded.

Don't forget that what this co does is very specialised and if it does 'get it right' then its value could appreciate very sharply.

If i had any spare money i might have a punt... It is very illiquid though.

How many do you hold sidtrix??

sidtrix - 25 May 2005 17:58 - 8 of 27

not much Legend... 5k worth!
Am new to this game, so am starting off slow... got majority in SEO, PXC, SEY, CFP and a few bob in OMG

partridge - 25 May 2005 18:04 - 9 of 27

Interesting mix of businesses - the core boring bits have a good track record of sales/profitability, but the more exciting nanotechnology products are not yet moving. If/when they do this share could move quickly north and the dwonside should be limited by the profitable bits.One for the patient - count me in.

sidtrix - 25 May 2005 18:10 - 10 of 27

BTW Legend...whats up with TANDEM??? You have any info that I should know ;)

legend290782 - 25 May 2005 18:50 - 11 of 27

No reason for price fall. They are on a p/e of about 4-5!! bags of cash. It's unbelievable. I think they will be taken over.

I remain about 150k shares long and will do until a minimum 30p.

I hold tgp at the mo... they look set for takeoff...

legend290782 - 02 Jun 2005 20:14 - 12 of 27

Ticking up quite nicely this..

sidtrix - 03 Jun 2005 09:24 - 13 of 27

Yeah... hope the recovery is on the move, lets see 150p now ;)

Nicely up today 6.5% after making an acquisition today.

blackbelt - 21 Jul 2005 13:02 - 15 of 27

Polaron plc, ('Polaron' or the 'Company') the broad based technology group, is
pleased to announce the acquisition of DMS Controls Ltd, ('DMS') a specialist
integrator of intelligent building control systems, for a maximum total
consideration of 3.5m.



The acquisition is immediately earnings enhancing.



The initial consideration payable is 1.2 million in cash. A further 800,000 to
be satisfied in shares will be payable on the achievement of pre-tax profits of
400,000 for the period ending 30th June 2006. A further maximum consideration
of 1.5m will be payable satisfied by loan notes and shares upon achieving
further pre-tax profits growth to a total of 700,000 or up to 1m if such
profits growth does not occur until the period ending 30th June 2007.



DMS provides solutions over a number of disciplines - building management
systems, HVAC, fire detection systems, voice alarm and public address, CCTV,
Access control and associated maintenance services. It is the largest UK
installer of Automated Logic Corporation building management systems product in
the UK and is an accredited Trend building management system technology centre.
DMS has a large portfolio of clients including Royal Bank of Scotland, Roche
Pharmaceuticals, Cable & Wireless, Fujitsu, Hilton Hotels and the BBC.



DMS was founded in 2000 by three highly experienced and respected industry
professionals Nick Seaton, Kerry Overman and Bob Gilbert. For the year ending
April 30th 2005, DMS was profitable on unaudited revenues of 3 million.



The Board believes that the acquisition is highly synergistic with the Company's
existing controls systems business, in terms of route to market and it will
create a number of cross-selling opportunities within the combined client base.
The Board does not anticipate any exceptional costs associated with the
integration of the businesses.



Joe Stelzer, CEO of Polaron, commented,

'I am very pleased to announce another strategic acquisition for the Company.
With DMS, the controls systems division has added additional high quality
services capability to its existing offering of products, services and
distribution, and remains well positioned for future growth.'

Roro - 22 Jul 2005 10:05 - 18 of 27

I am blackbelt.The company iis growing earnings and profits in its core business which limits the downside risk. The sp should move sharply upwards when nanotechnology side kicks in

Found a little info about a wholly owned company of Polaron, sounds extremely interesting probably costs a fortune! The future looks extremely bright on this one.

The Aquavision bathroom television is now available built into a designer towel rail. The four models in the range incorporate a 17" waterproof widescreen LCD TV with built in stereo speakers. When not switched on, the TV looks like an ordinary mirror.

Unlike other models in the Aquavision TV range, they don't need to be fitted into a wall, which makes them ideal for the retrofit market. They can be easily installed in existing bathrooms, or included on the options list for new or renovated properties.

Available from trade only distributors Marata Vision, the remote control televisions have heated screens which prevents them steaming up. Completely safe for use in wet areas, they add luxury to bathrooms in the home or in hotels.

The towel rail TVs are available in four sizes (w x h): T1, 50 x 80 cm; T2, 97 x 76 cm; T3, 97 x 180 cm; T4, 50 x 180 cm.

Notes for editors

Established for over 20 years, Watford based Marata Vision are trade-only distributors specialising in intelligent lighting control systems, home cinema video display systems and accessories for residential and corporate installations. They are a wholly owned subsidiary of Polaron plc.

iLight launches compact touch screen and interface products at CEDIA

28 June 2005

A new compact colour touch screen has been introduced by iLight for their intelligent lighting control systems. Launched at CEDIA Expo 2005 UK, the unit has a 3.5 inch backlit LCD screen, giving it a discreet presence and enabling it to fit in a standard double gang backbox.

Easy to use, the screen is software configurable, enabling the controls to be custom designed for the precise requirements of the user. Building plans, photos and 3D graphics can be incorporated in the display to enable simple fingertip selection of lighting scenes, as well as providing control of other integrated systems such as audio, security, heating and blinds.

Also introduced by iLight at CEDIA is their new iCAN/RS232 serial interface. This system integration node allows third party equipment to be controlled from an iLight iCAN network via their RS232 serial ports and allows the iCAN network to become the hub of a smart home. Typical equipment controlled includes audio systems, TVs, projectors, blinds, curtains, security and fire alarms and surveillance systems.

The device has two RJ45 network sockets and a 9 pin D-type RS232 port operating at 9600 baud. Fully programmable serial commands and command sequences can be triggered from any control panel (including the new compact touch screen) on the iCAN network or from other devices or systems through iLight's network interfaces.

Also announced is the iCAN Ethernet gateway which provides the system with a connection to a local area network and thereby allows it to be linked in to the Internet. This enables remote control, programming and diagnosis of a lighting control network and connected systems from anywhere in the world. It also enables direct connection of the control system into a WiFi wireless network giving the convenience of system configuration carried out using a WiFi enabled laptop.

Notes for editors

iLight's acquisition by Polaron plc last year means that the group remains intact, while benefiting from the increased resources arising from being part of Polaron's control systems division. Committed to market leadership within Europe, iLight also has a strong presence in the Middle East and Australasia.
