One
only problem here no buyer .
thanks for the update mannan I don't know where you found the information but your research is fist class, I have held these shares for a long time - through bad times and even worse ones! Lets hope this gets us going with work that the company deserves after all their in house developments. At times I thought we were going to fold, then I thought we would be taken over for no money at all. I thought the Robinsons with a foot in the C21 and Trakm8 camps were going to be involved with a C21 robbery. Interesting times, long term holders deserve a good return.

Another 775K shares added by the Bottomley,s yesterday, on the back of the ARRIVA contract renewal. They now have 5.1% of the issued share capital. This is a recovery play-------Good luck all
Can't believe the last RNS. The Company is making losses, the shares have lost huge value in the last three years and whats the management response? Open another office, by complete coincidence not too far from where the executive Directors reside. Does anyone at C21 care about the longsuffering shareholders??
The "new" management team have now been in place for almost three years. At the time of their appointment, the share price was around 10p. Today its hovering around 1.5 to 2p, a huge reduction by any standards. The previous management was criticised for their inability to get the share price up, so why is that there appears to be no concern, at least on this board, about the disastrous performance and apparent lack of plans to rectify the situation? I assume that the Directors continue to receive generous packages, so perhaps the fate of smaller shareholders is not really of great concern to them.
Well its certainly climbing back
steep fall.
First Bus contract renewal 21st Century Technology plc (AIM:C21), the specialist provider of tailored solutions to the transport community, solving complex operational requirements both on and off vehicle is pleased to announce an important contract renewal with First Bus, in the form of a 5-year Framework Agreement. 21st Century's Fleet Systems division have been providers of CCTV and depot based maintenance to the First Bus fleet of over 6,000 vehicles which carry 1.7 million passengers per day, under a Framework Agreement since 2010 and have installed over 2,000 CCTV and associated systems on new buses. These are safety critical CCTV systems, helping to protect passengers, drivers and members of the public. High levels of performance and reliability are maintained through 21Track, an online web service and call-centre, coordinating a network of engineering teams working overnight in 70 depots in the 40 largest towns and cities in the UK. Russ Singleton, Chief Executive Officer, said: "The new Framework Agreement builds on the relationship with First Bus as preferred supplier for new bus systems and includes our latest innovative remote condition monitoring service. This is a demonstration of our commitment to First Bus's longer-term supplier relationships aiming to continuously improve system reliability and performance at the same time as reduce whole life-cycle costs". Tim Noble, Head of Procurement from First Bus said: "We are pleased to continue our relationship with 21st Century Fleet Systems as our partner in technical systems and service provisions to our UK bus fleet. Since 2010 they have developed the capabilities of our CCTV systems, which are a critical part of our safety first approach, as we strive to continuously improve the passenger service experience. 21st Century have developed and demonstrated technical solutions to support optimized system performance with the associated operational and cost benefits that result from this". A digital copy of this announcement will be available on the Group's website: www.21stplc.com
21st Century Technology has warned that full year revenue will be lower than last time resulting in a significant loss for the year ending 31 December. But the specialist provider of tailored solutions to the transport community, solving complex operational requirements both on and off vehicle has announced an important contract renewal with First Bus, in the form of a 5-year framework agreement. 21st Century's Fleet Systems division have been providers of CCTV and depot based maintenance to the First Bus fleet of over 6,000 vehicles which carry 1.7 million passengers per day, under a framework agreement since 2010 and have installed over 2,000 CCTV and associated systems on new buses. The group says that as previously announced, trading during the beginning of the year was slower than anticipated due to lower volumes of new vehicle orders from UK bus operator customers. It was anticipated that the slow start to the year would be followed by a pick-up in trading in H2 although this is proving slower to materialise. With the uncertainty associated with the First Bus contract renewal now removed, the company can now direct more focus on a number of framework agreements, bids and tenders currently under negotiation, particularly in Fleet Systems which specialises in on-board systems and integrated systems in the Passenger Transport Authority and Local Authority markets. As previously announced, performance in the Passenger Systems business is subject to a number of sensitivities; namely the timing of local authority spend and the adoption of ticketing technology. Whilst there remains a number of bids pending decision, the order intake in Passenger Systems has been well below expectations. The board now anticipates that the Group's full year revenue will be lower than last year resulting in a significant loss for the full year ending 31 December 2016. As at 30 June 2016 the Company had approximately £1.2m net cash (unaudited). In order to mitigate losses, a programme to remove costs and accelerate the consolidation of operations, particularly in areas where there was duplication or overlap resulting from the acquisition of RSL Group in May last year, commenced in H1 and is continuing. As this exercise progresses the Board are considering all possible options with respect to the RSL business and will make further announcements as appropriate
The GOOD LORD had less bother 'ascending' than this pitiful share. This is the first time in months that 21st Century has risen, with mm continually reducing the bid at every opportunity. Bought this almost exactly 1year ago at 6.1p which means that 21st has lost coming up on 4 million pounds in value since then. Apologies to anyone sensitive to the analogy in the first sentence but mm seem to have attempted to leave us long term holders high and dry. Good luck to all going forward.
today .not looking interesting
Just looked in to see the news - if any! I was surprised to see how many shares in C21 have been sold over the last couple of weeks. Assuming they all were sells that is. I havn't noticed an RNs to see if it is a BOD member, so who has been trading so many shares. Mr Robinson is on the BOD of TRAK8 as well as C21 and I assumed one day they would merge but nothing yet on that front. We know C21 is making progress with good contacts for good money but the share price hasn't managed to reflect that yet. Happy holidays all, quite an Easter sell off going on with the markets, I havn't joined in with that fun!!
Another good contract, well done C21 plus a number of steady buys this am , one day we will all be rewarded! It's always good to be seen by other parts of the industry to be making progress rather than stagnating. It gives potential clients confidence in the company and may sway them to use c21 rather than a competitor. Good luck long term holders .
higher volumes kicking in,after such a steep fall. so that usually indicates it's at or near the bottom. so on the watchlist.
troajan have I missed something? why is it looking interesting?
