NT to buy 1,000 shares or £260!!
Results 8 weeks away £2.1M 1/2 year results with £150k in the bank
Boom shares up for sale.
Marcet CAP £3.6M any news & this could multibsg in a day.
No trading update like previous years.
The results will take the market by surprise recruiting, expanding & generating new business.
Also a list of Global clients who CEO have contacts so much cross selling available.
Not long until results.
the PR on Twitter is pretty good though and I. pretty sure most investors have heared of this. just needs ppl to wake up the tight free float cuz that's what makes these aim shares actually go up
Draft it will go well over £1 per share the problem is nobody’s heard of Immedia.
The PR is an embarrassment they should be active on Facebook& twitter promoting the brand.
Results are not far away I expect turnover circa £5M no debt £200k~£400k cash in the bank. With a market cap of £3.6M its the biggest no brainer on AIM. It should be trading at 4X turnover on fundamentals alone. Some companies trade 10-20 times earnings.
Our time will come & as you said there are no shares in issue directors holding circa 70%.
I expect 60p + pre results.
GLA
in this we would go over £1. cuz there's no shares left in free float. not much
looks like IME working in Wales also. Clearwave done work with Coca Cola.
Just seen this on twitter page client development nice way of saying to grow and expand sales. Looking to focuss on number of differnt markets, and attract Global consumer brands
When the market wakes up and realises the potential of this micro-cap company with a market cap of 3M is any ones guess Results not far away hopefully we get a tradeing update last year late January.
We're excited to announce that Paul Atherton is joining Immedia as Director of Partnerships. He will be focussing on new client development across a number of market verticals including retail, banking, fashion and global consumer brands.
new website
business has improved. should really be 50p
Up 16% today maybe news is going to be released still very cheap at these crazy low levels!
Any good news will see this rocket fundamentals alone we should be in the 60P + Range
£1.5k sold & down 17% the boats of directors need a kick up the arse & start giving names of such as HSBC why the big secret?
The current market cap is nearly equal to 1/2 year results.
Crazy is not the word they need good news ASAP spoiling a good company
Market cap £3.2M 6 month 1/2 year results £2.1M on target £4.5M +
Share price 22.5p the market needs to wake up currently trading under NAV Aim is a casino but this has to be worth 40p plus fundamentals alone.
Excellent company . No debt any news and watch it re-rate.
seller is a total fool. ive got too much so i can't buy anymore. not sure the sellers using his brain here at all.
Results positive EBITDA £150k in bank maintaining strong relationships with existing clients.
I Wundt be surprised if they have done deal rest Subway Europe just haven’t bothered to update market as there’s no way if so successful as they keep staying wont roll out to whole of Europe.
Amazed the share price hasn’t moved as if results were bad it wud be hammered down!
20% spread on buy to sell. I bet full year earnings is well over £5M current market cap £4M that’s without any more contracts. This is a screaming buy at 30p per share futures looking very bright!,
great results. just can't get any buying going here bizareely. mms will have to rerate this ahead of finals
Looking postive if not outstanding................
Im not going to bother posting here anymore, given that mickey mouse character advantage.
Immedia sent some Ikea tweet out.
Quite obious wwho the mickey mouse blogger is - so bleeding obvious.
LOL im not that fricking stupid, Ive been trapped in this share for almost 2 years now - im not adding anymore.
Daft you asked if I was on twitter before. Not interested in blogs & don’t have time. Spread the word to your twitter followers! Or buy some more you seem confident!!
LOL there is nothing cloak and dagger here at all. you sure your not that mickey mouse character off that blog?
BB more tweets on Immedia we just need good solid results & news on contracts. They are very bad at keeping the market up to date everything seems cloak & dagger. With so few shares in issue so much potential & no debt.
Let’s bring on results very surprised no trading update as per last 2 years. Maybe they’ll release lots of news in one.
So many shares on AIM trading at multiples of market cap with lots of debt etc.
IME bring the news soon!

Shops still work.
In an era where most retailers are looking to reduce their physical footprint, JD Sports said in its interim results statement that it expects physical stores “to retain most of their current level of importance.”
“We do not anticipate a material movement in the size of our store base in the UK and Ireland although we continue to work with landlords on ensuring that our portfolio of leases has the maximum flexibility and the lowest committed cost possible”.
The group, which has 390 sports fashion stores in the UK and Ireland, added that it expects to report full-year profit in line with market forecasts after its UK operations increased sales in the first half of the year.
The group, which prides itself on its close relationships with suppliers such as Nike and Adidas, reported operating profit of £123.9m for the six months to August 4, against £103m in the equivalent period last year. Finish Line, the US operation acquired in June, contributed £4.8m for the seven weeks of the period.
Peter Cowgill, JD’s executive chairman, said:
“Against a backdrop of widely reported retail challenges in the UK, it is extremely reassuring that the profitability in the UK and Ireland Sports Fascias has been further enhanced. This reflects the value of the investments that we have made over a number of years in developing a dynamic multichannel proposition.”
The company’s UK operations are largely mature, with much of its growth now coming from expansion in Europe and Asia. In the US, it said it will start a trial of JD Sports fascia this year.
The Outdoor division, which includes brands such as GoOutdoors, Blacks Leisure and Milletts, had a more difficult half owing to the hot summer weather, which curtailed sales of weatherproof clothing.
I found this joker on google. I was wondering who was trading this - well looks like i found him. Odd character,
Here's one I haven't mentioned before. The company in question is Immedia (IME).
I've struggled a bit with an investment here. It's a micro-cap and has possibly the most illiquid company shares I've ever dealt in. It's market cap. is around £4m and it has next to zero debt. I'm expecting the Interim results around the end of September. In keeping with the rest of this blog, here's a brief summary of the company by CEO Bruno Brookes (yes that Bruno Brookes ex-R1 DJ - yikes!! ;) :-
https://www.insider-trends.com/music-as-a-media-opportunity-immedia-on-why-brands-can-use-audio-to-reach-their-audiences/
When I say that I've struggled a bit with an investment here, I mean I've kept falling in and out of love with the company. More by luck than judgement I've had a successful run trading the shares whilst keeping a decent holding to run for the long term (I wasn't intending to trade but just kept changing my mind about company prospects). I've made 112%, 32% and 16% respectively. Indecision has proven to be lucrative in this instance.
Results for the full year 2017 were frankly horrible, but 2018 looks far brighter for a £4m minnow. Here's the outlook statement:-
https://uk.advfn.com/stock-market/london/immedia-broadcasting-IME/share-news/Immedia-Group-PLC-Final-Results-for-the-year-ended/77179409
"2018 has started very positively for the Group. The recent announcement of a substantial installation rollout in branches of a major UK financial institution is just one of numerous new business opportunities currently in play.
Our collective knowledge and skills-set have underpinned our ability to integrate, consolidate and strengthen the Group's product and service offering which, by the 2017 year-end, has also afforded us greater marketing and client opportunities in our key target sectors.
The confidence referred to at the start of this statement is palpable within the business and reflected in the amount and quality of work accomplished by all the team in both Aberdeen and Newbury. I would like to thank each and every one of them."
I do recommend that you read the whole report.
I'm currently feeling very optimistic about 2018 for Immedia, and added to my core holding at prices around 22p. Being a long term investor at heart, I shall now hopefully hold on until this becomes a multi-bagger (fingers crossed anyway!)
A few extra points of interest include:-
1) In 2016 they acquired a company called AVC Media which took a while to bed in, but may now be starting to bear fruit
2) They own 6,000,000 shares in AudioBoom (BOOM).
and also from the 2017 report they say:-
3)
a) Costs have been optimised to the size of the business, with c.GBP250k of annual cost removed
b) The Group remains virtually debt free and is now cash generative
c) Having launched in late 2017 our new engagement p
