PTO a complementary business for Pearson?
November 7, 2013 by Jenny Mudarri The IET partners with Publishers Communication Group for sales representation in Europe The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), Europe’s largest multidisciplinary professional engineering institution, has selected Publishers Communication Group (PCG) for a new sales representation agreement in Europe. With this arrangement, PCG will support institutional sales of the IET’s collection of digital resources, including the IET Inspec database, across key European markets.
Released yesterday, quietly going about their superb business. http://www.publishingtechnology.com/news/the-iet-partners-with-publishers-communication-group-for-sales-representation-in-europe/ Don't worry Sir, a few per cent here and there versus massive spikes up... The next spike will not be far away.
So frustrating! I check this far too often, wish I could resist looking and come back in a year as I'm sure all will be well at the mo though it's annoying! Is there expected updates etc.. due soon that could stop this drifting?
Great insight, thanks Tara... I think he needs an English lesson! Iam looking forward to seeing how the 49% transforms into actual numbers in terms of revenue, but based on the number of publications I assume it will be large
This is the boss of our Chinese J/V talking. The easy to read through platform is running on PTO"S software with 49% of the profits coming to PTO; 60% PLUS OF THE CHINESE BOOK MARKET. "Easy to read through it can be said that our own Amazon, it will make China's digital resources can enter the international digital main channel, to promote Chinese publications to the world, in accordance with international standards, to enhance China pricing publications in international transactions level of income "Zhangji Chen have high expectations. They pass through and see the difference lies in the Amazon, the Amazon is a comprehensive B2C electronic business, mass consumption read some more. Easily understood through reading key service targets institutional or professional users, their technology, medicine, education and other aspects of professional needs more resources. But also easy to read through the Amazon, Jingdong, Dangdang and other platforms to provide digital resources.
Bid before xmas? Lets hope so.
Good point Dart They have spent best part of 6 years getting to this stage. They will not give it away.
Myself and my wife were heavily invested in Delyn group in the late nineties both selling out in 2001 after the reverse takeover with Ingenta.After the deal the market cap valued Ingenta circa 140 million I believe.I feel that the directors today will stick it out for a mega offer because they know the company is experiencing rapid growth.Who could have put a takeout price on Asos a few years ago ?
Anyone contemplating investing is probably not too late in my opinion, PTO are almost certainly the subject of at least one takeover judging by the stakebuilding that has drive the price higher recently. Plemty more to go yet...
goodness me...just keeps going!!! well done from me too...used to be in but settled for 10% lol!!! could have made lots more!!!!
Thankyou, Riddler. PTO and WSG both 10 bagged in the last 2 years.!!
If London’s “hot money” is right, then Publishing Technology appears considerably more adept at furnishing the publishing industry with technol-ogy know-how than keeping the stock market appraised. Those fast chaps who hunt lucrative takeovers are convinced that PTO — like many other companies, this one is known colloquially in the market by its ticker — has received not one, not two, but three separate approaches about a possible takeover and has not disclosed any of them. The rules on disclosure could not be simpler. If takeover talks stay secret, fine. There is no need to say anything. However, if they leak, the target company is obligated to tell the Takeover Panel right away. It is the Panel’s job to make sure the market is properly informed when secret deals do not remain quite so secret, to prevent any false market in the shares when some become privy to sensitive information unavailable to all. No distinction is made between formal and informal approaches. Rumblings about takeover app-roaches to PTO have done the rounds since about mid-August, when the shares were changing hands for roughly 260p. Yesterday, they rose a further 1½p to 547½p, within touching distance of their best. Another rule that the Panel is supposed to enforce states that the target company must make contact if its share price rises by a meagre 10 per cent from its nadir since talks started. Whether the Panel then demands disclosure is a subjective judgment. It can hand the target company a pass for any number of reasons. It is perfectly possible that just such a pass has been handed to PTO. Cold comfort to frustrated professional investors, who believe that the latest approach, reckoned to have been from Reuters, the financial information provider, was pitched north of £10, valuing the company at more than £80  million. China National Publications Import and Export (Group) Corporation was said to have been behind an earlier approach at a lower price still substantially above where shares currently trade. If this manner of premium sounds far-fetched, then speculators explain it like this. PTO, so the story runs, is sitting on two thumping new contracts, which its chairman, Martyn Rose, thinks are game-changers that should re-rate the shares to somewhere near £10 anyway. Little incentive, then, to sell the business for that sort of price. Yesterday, PTO did not return a call about the matter.
The House Broker needs to pull their finger out - too many material things have happened since their last detailed research note and the Company needs to ask them to issue a new one, to keeo Investors informed. Great Company but proactive Investor relations doesn't appear to be their strong point.
National digital library promotion launched 17:03, December 16, 2010 A project to promote China's national digital library was launched in Beijing on Wednesday. It aims to ensure that every organization, every family and every person has their own digital library through new media, such as mobile phone, digital TV and internet. With the national digital library as the core, this project will connect all libraries nationwide to form a single, massive digital library. The construction of a national digital library has achieved preliminary results, according to Wei Dawei, deputy director of the National Library. As of the end of 2010, digital resources have reached 460 terabytes and the public can access 76 percent of records, which cover various historical periods at home and abroad. By Liang Jun, People's Daily Online THEN READ THIS FROM PTO.!! "The aim of the Digital Gateway project was to create the most significant resource for international digital content in China on the pub2web platform. Yet it quickly became apparent that there was also scope for creating a portal to export Chinese content digitally across the globe, in line with the Chinese government’s strategy. Subsequently Ingentaconnect China was born. These dual Chinese projects have grown in size, significance, ambition and potential, so much so that we now expect to make millions of international online resources available in China and vice versa, opening up new avenues of collaboration on content and culture." PTO IS VALUED AT JUST £45M, The house broker has not yet even factored in Profits from China yet into its forecasts.!!
I'd be amazed if PTO arent't bought by someone before 2015. The list of potential candidates is long...
2014, but 2015 is when I think they could go off the radar as the number of digital books/research papers and so on go live. The Chinese 5 year plan will be finished by then and no doubt it will be the best in the world. PTO has 3 software suits running in China. Ingentaconnect China Pub2 web Advance. Also see newsflash on my ADVFN thread this morning.!!
I usually hear alarm bells when the same name appears on all the discussion boards saying how great a share is but I always leave room in my head that they may be genuine and actually want others to know how good a share is. (Ramping/de ramping etc... With oilees is different but I don't buy them!) Anyhow spot on with this company and I really appreciate it! The more I look into this the more I like it so thank you. I got In at 420 and am enjoying the ride! When do we think first of the larger china profits will get into results?
I think the MM's are short of stock...again...... I would not be suprised to see 600p by the end of next week if the buying continues unabated. It can be difficult to get stock at times.
Bought more today...I think I may be partly responsible for pushing up the share price - so my apologies everyone!
I must be crazy, I'm still buying even at this price! I must know something!
I think Westhouse need to up their share price target..........Again!

APPLICATIONS Photos Attachments Notepad China is Opening to Westerners, Rapidly October 16, 2013 George Lossius, CEO of Publishing Technology This past August, I headed east for the third year in a row to attend the Beijing International Book Fair, Asia’s flagship publishing industry event. When I was first invited in 2011 after launching our domestic partnership in China, I did not know what to expect. Now, in the span of two years it feels that the number of international delegates and exhibitors has grown in volume, but most obviously in size of presence and the Chinese market has gained new focus for publishers and industry providers well beyond the week of the Book Fair. This feeling was further emphasized when, a few weeks later, I also visited the first, and very successful, China Periodicals fair in Wuhan. As publishers begin to enter into this market, I thought I wo
