Is something going on?. nice to see but having held these shares for so long its sudden movement is interesting. Normally people know something?.
On Saturday the chart here is uber bullish - clear chart breakout - 10 year chart looks extraordinary. DYOR There must be some very strong demand here. We have a gap up at open and I have a feeling one or two large delayed trades.
Reveals NO promotional or rampy interviews from management to any of the likes of StockTube, proactive investors etc which is very refreshing. It means management are focusing purely on the business, running the business and not on trying to promote themselves. After all the results will do all the talking necessary in terms of growing revenue, profits, cash-flow etc The chart is looking very bullish. I think there may be a slight pull back from here to perhaps 5p but if it does that will be new support having previously been long term resistance. Having said that we may just keep climbing from here as next resistance is at 8 and 10p.
This has been a good buy for me , first tranche of shares up 110% and second up 32%. It doesn't always work out this way as readers of this board are aware but this company is making good progress. Since leaving work in 2011 most of the 'techy' developments are leaving me behind or as my son and daughter said " were you ever up to date dad". I'll ignore them and keep investing!.
If Stilo's proprietary software is employed at enterprise level by the "major company",then annual revenues from just the one engagement could yield upwards of US$400,000 p.a. As Dibs61 points out,virtually 100% of any revenue increase drops straight down to the STL bottom line. Hold tight!
A little bit technical but gets across the main point that this is a 'disruptive' technology introducing a new and easier model for content authoring in digital publishing. https://bp.infomanagementcenter.com/baker/ Currently being piloted by one of STL's major customers (IBM?) and due for release by end of the year.
Been doing some research here and checking out latest half yearly results. EPS for 1st half equating to 0.15p. IF they can repeat that same performance in 2nd half, (and given outlook etc that looks entirely possible) then this will be on an undemanding current year PE of 16 at SP of 4.87p. Undemanding because this looks to be entering a period of very decent growth which could see projections of forward 2016/2017 PE tumbling into single figures. Company has zero debt and tight control over costs. Not your perennial loss making AIM company. Virtually all additional revenue in 1st half flowed down to the bottom line which is notable.
Thanks luke.
I have attended,as sole PI many AGMs. CEO Les Burnham had said for several years that the market place was not ready for STL's proprietary software. This year he felt it was take off time and that new enhancements ,beyond AuthorBridge,had the potential to disrupt the multi billion XML scenario. If it works out for them then a £1million profit pa lies ahead with the potential for much more. Never a bad thing though to say thank you for some profit.
Been trying to value this for a few days now, and to be honest i am way out my depth. Think i might top slice this at some point, around the 15p mark. As i feel that would be a fair price for STL in its current state. However that could change on any new ect ect.
Have you NO ambition polarhare ? Much of course depends how the STL business plan evolves. The BOD though do have ambitions for a market cap way beyond £20million; so it might be wise to leave your options open.
They can have mine for 20p each.
If you are lucky enough to own any shares in Stilo International then the MMs urgently require them. They have been bidding at just below mid price for some days now and it could be that their earlier supplier has drawn stumps. All very encouraging for holders. As Breton59 says, "Sit tight",and wait for the real action to begin !
If the MMs were not kept being supplied with stock,eg a further 205,000 shares this afternoon @ 4.25,then imo the SP would be much higher Breton59. With record profits a distinct probability for 2015,plus a potential engagement at enterprise level with IBM and not forgetting AuthorBridge,the potential for Stilo to surprise the market is no secret to the few who have this micro cap on their radar.
All credit this share is holding on. The rest of the market looks like a rally for Jeremy Corbyn and I vote Labour.
Even though there has been some profit taking today,it has remained a difficult market for buyersof STL.. The newsflow over the next few months could have a dramatic effect on the SP,imo
Yes, although the buy was effected within 20 min. of placing the order.
Thanks for that information,testpack3. Did you have a buy order in place throughout the day,in order to secure the purchase; for STL shares had proved difficult to obtain earlier .
at 16.28 today were buys.
Stilo enters the last 3 months of its trading year. AuthorBridge is about to be launched and much increased profitability is assured. Results due in days,with news on the IBM pilot on its way. Very exiting times then ! Someone else thinks so too, for one can sell several hundred thousand shares at a premium this morning.
Copied from the ADVFN thread. "Stilo International's Interim Results,due in about 5/6 weeks, could well signal the serious uplift in revenues/EBITDA which we know lies ahead. The header alludes to bullish statements made this year by the BOD. Additionally, Stilo has announced the receipt of an order value US$765,000 from a major semi-conductor manufacturer for Stilo Migrate, its cloud content conversion service.The order is spread over three years, and is planned for delivery in June 2015. It is worth US$265,000 in the current year to 31 December 2015. As revenues in the second half of 2014(excluding software maintenance)amounted to just £279k,the above contract, on its own, would serve to almost double that 2014 figure. Add to this the "raft" of other contracts for Migrate allied to a maiden contribution from AuthorBridge and the potential for eye catching increases in profitabality moves up a gear.The "icing on the cake",according to CEO Les Burnham will be new contracts for Omnimark. We are lucky to have such a reliable,focused,low cost yet alpha grade CEO. His projections for Stilo over the past six years have been remarkable in their accuracy .The fact that he is now forecasting a very exciting future for STL should therefore be acted upon. He is well supported by an able and adroit Chairman who steadfastly continues to decline any remuneration or expenses! Should Stilo announce that IBM have satisfactorily concluded the AuthorBridge pilot and gone live at enterprise level then surely STL's days as a micro cap must be numbered. In the meantime the company remains ungeared,boasts over £1million on deposit and pays us a worthwhile and progressive dividend. Beyond all this though are the ongoing enhancements to Stilo's proprietary software which the BOD believe will enable it to more than compete in terms of performance and pricing with those currently dominant in the market place,thus enabling STL's corporate performance to be propelled way beyond its current parameters. No wonder Chairman David Ashman continues to buy Stilo shares,having purchased a further 7% of the equity in 2015."
Extracted from the STL 2014 accounts :- If the US$ had strengthened by 10% against the Canadian $, post-tax profit would have been £31,000 higher ... The US $ continues to strengthen against the C$. Plus of course any impending currency influenced profit increases will be additionally leveraged as revenues rise. 1 US Dollar today equals 1.27 Canadian Dollar. The average rate in 2014 was 1.10. No wonder the Stilo share price is edging upwards toward a multi year high,for here is a company poised to deliver impressive growth.

nice to see the spread closing. next step, bid 3.50 ask 4 then 3.75/4. Moving up nicely. when is the nest set of results due?
There is a really tight spread at the moment with 50K shares available to buy @ 3.34,whilst the same amount can be sold @3.25 pence.The last two large transactions have both been buys.. STILO remains on course to post record profits,whilst the news flow could be singularly positive should any news on the AuthorBridge pilot emerge. A hugely exciting investment opportunity is presenting itself,imo.
